UPCOMING: Dexter - The Trip LP (MELTING POT MUSIC)

Written By 1 - March 10 2013

Due out May 2013, to pre-order please contact us at info@conch.co.nz

Tune in, turn on, drop out! "The Trip" is Dexter's long-awaited follow-up to his seminal "Jazz Files" album. The German gold & platinum producer (Casper , Cro) and Hi-Hat Club member is letting his hair down by turning the late 60ties psychedlic rock sound into hip-hop. "The Trip" is all about free love, LSD, hash, fuzz guitars, tablas and revolution and at the same time probably one of the most free-thinking hip-hop albums of 2013. Dexter's music has been in its own cloud for a while now, but none of his previous records have been as far-out as "The Trip". With a concept similar the "The Jazz Files" Dexter is telling his personal psych story, one that been triggered by his diggin habits. "I like nearly every music from the late 60ties", he says, "My whole musical spectrum has been shaped by this era. It was a time when everything was in progress - art, film, music, society. And I wanted to bring this vibe across on this album." Artwork comes from Robert (photos) and Gizem Winter (illustrations). The first single from "The Trip" will be "Pictures" and featurew Berlin singer Josa Peit on vocals.

GIG: LeFtO (BROWNSWOOD) @ Ponsonby Social Club This Thurs & Fri

Written By 1 - February 27 2013

LeFtO (BELGIUM) At Ponsonby Social Club, Thursday 28th Feb with Bobby Brazuka & TDK Friday 29th Feb with Junior & Dylan C FREE ENTRY Check his latest Mixcloud radio shows here for a taster of what to expect on Thursday & Friday night.

Latest LeFtO's Cloudcasts on Mixcloud

As one the most important tastemakers Europe has to offer, and affiliated with Brownswood Recordings, Blue Note, !K7 Records, Jazzy Sport in Japan and Do-Over parties, this bearded early riser is consistently a couple steps ahead of your average early adopter.

He doesn't wait for the next thing to land on his lap, he actively seeks it out, therefore just take a peek at his playlists on Belgium's foremost national radio station Studio Brussel which received compliments from Rough Trade Shops, Gilles Peterson and featured on MTV Hive. However, don't assume that he's only working futuristic angles - no sir. Firmly rooted in jazz and hip hop, he sharpened his digging sensibility working at the now legendary Music Mania record store in hometown Brussels.

His passion for jazz resulted in a remix album for Blue Note which was well received by the community. LeFtO is forever moving forwards but always got an ear in the past. Famed for his gloriously eclectic dj sets, he switches effortlessly between hip hop, funk breaks, neck-snapping beats, future bass, south-american influences, bruk riddims and some wild african rhythms. He's not only a deejay and producer but also curates his own stage at the Dour Festival and his own nights in the Belgian city Gent in collaboration with local event organisation Democrazy.

World renowned, LeFtO regularly blesses sound systems from Tokyo to Seoul , Singapore to New York, Kazakhstan to Germany, San Francisco and Los Angeles. He has been a resident deejay for Gilles Peterson's Worldwide Festivals since 2008 around the world.

Camera under the arm, he is also one of the few deejays on this planet who can deejay somewhere and have a nice movie on the internet a couple hours later, with over 250 videos on Youtube and Vimeo, he's very creative with it. The travel resulted in a compilation on Gilles Peterson's Brownswood Recordings with partner in crime DJ Simbad. In 2012 he has put out two compilations, one for American brand 101Apparel and the other one for Universal Music. In 2013 more compilations and collaborations are in the pipeline.

New From SWAMP81, ClekClekBoom & Innovative Leisure

Written By 1 - January 31 2013

Had a delivery of bits from ST Holdings as well as a few other bits.

Jean Nipon - Put It In The Trunk / Black Things On Desk / 35 Thieves 12" (CLEKCLEKBOOM)

On his first release for ClekClekBoom, the Institubes original showcases 3 tracks of hard-hitting, deftly-produced, dance-floor menace. “Put It In The Trunk” combines cascading percussion, disturbingly nonchalant vocal snippets and deep, propulsive, subs. With “Black Things On Desk” Jean Nipon employs unnervingly detuned vocal samples woven into irresistibly pulsating, punchy percussion. The final tune, “35 Thieves” sees our enigmatic wizzard drop subtle snatches of melody in amongst a grooving beat which, as ever, strikes the perfect balance between toughness and delicacy.

LAB014 is the third installment of Aquatic Lab’s releases from South London originator, Cluekid. Leading on from his recent ‘After The Storm’ EP (LAB012), the ‘Dolphin EP’ is another display of Clue’s well-heeled versatility and continual sonic growth, demonstrating why his extensive back catalogue of work continues to carry such high regard.As Cluekid’s most sought after dubplate in recent times, the A-side, ‘Dolphin’, is simply a masterclass in stellar meditation. Combining the bold sense of musicality of his previous releases with an expertly crafted arrangement,

Rhye - The Fall - Maurice Fulton Remix 12" (INNOVATIVE LEISURE)

Rhye fortuitously came together in late 2010 with the intention of collaborating on a remix but the obvious chemistry and mutual respect between artists metamorphosed into a completely new project. Recorded in Copenhagen and Los Angeles, their sound brings together elements of their modern cultural aesthetics mixed with an homage to classic sensibilities; lush strings and melodies intertwined with simple electronic production and soft and sultry vocals – a marriage between refined decadence and modern elegance.
