Brenk Sinatra is your favourite producer's favourite producer. The Wien-Kaisermühlen homeboy is a mystical figure. A Westcoast rap fanatic and hardcore producer, Brenk is one of the most complete European beatmakers. You can't pinpoint his sound but you know immediately that it's him when you hear a Brenk production. Westcoast Gangsta-rap and grimey Detroit rap are as present in his music as sweet soul from the 60ties + 70ties – all chopped to the max and iced out with analogue Korg lines.
On Sep 2, the Viennese beatsmith returns with „Gumbo II (Pretty Ugly)“, the follow-up to his slept on instrumental masterpiece „Gumbo“ (Supercity, 2008). Added to Chop Shop, his Hi-Hat Club collabo with Fid Mella, this is Brenk Sinatra's third all instrumental LP in three years. Since „Ole Woam“, his first 7“ on MPM, Brenk has established himself as one of the most promising international beatheads. Besides lacing tracks for an armada of Austrian and German MC's (e.g. Kamp, Kayo), the Kaisermühlen representant has worked with the likes of Guilty Simpson, King Tee, DJ Premier or MarvWon and produced all of MC Eiht's upcoming full length album „Which Way Iz West“ (Year Round Records). Most recently Brenk has finished „S3“ (Super Soul Shit), an album with MPM singer Miles Bonny, who features on „Gumbo II“'s „Dedicated“.
Gumbo II (Pretty Ugly) marks a new state of the art for sample-based productions. Taking his trademark formula to perfection, Brenk brings together 70's soul with twisted electronica, analogue korg lines, Lil John ad-libs and police sirens, all backed by the most relentless grooves and drum-loops. While every track works for itself, „Gumbo II (Pretty Ugly)“ takes you on a heavy ride through music history: From the embracing brazilian sounds of „Perdido“ to the grimey talkbox craze of „Wolves 2 (Still Hungy)“ and the prog-rock stompin' „Hit U“.
Tracklist & Soundclips:
One Hunned is the new EP from Montreal swag-kingpin Lunice.
Six new tracks showcasing this kids dynamic, spaced-out trap music. This release has equal influences of Neptunes and Araabmuzik’s futuristic Hip Hop glow as the innovations and mutations of UK underground dance music. Includes the heavyweights ?I See U' & ?Bricks' currently getting run on Kiss, Rinse FM and Radio One.
Since last years showstopping Stacker Upper EP sold out in a matter of weeks, 23 year old Lunice Fermin Pierre II has been on his A-game touring the world with his charismatic high energy live shows. But in the studio this guy has shown yet more prowess and scope than any of his beatmaking peers. Remixes and collaboration with the likes of Diplo, Young L, XV, Theophilus London, Wacka Flocka Flame, Gucci Mane and Deerhunter have given him a serious buzz. Watch what he does with it.
And so, LuckyMe are very proud to present 'One Hunned', the next phase in the Lunice takeover. This shit bangs hard for the club with upfront DJ support from Diplo, Sinden, Oneman, Girl Unit, Hudson Mohawke, Rustie, A Trak and many more.

Cultural phenomena streak through popular consciousness like meteorites. There’s a significant, even life-changing, impact made somewhere, but for many it’s only a moment that flickers by, soon to be swallowed back into the cosmos. Chicha might have been like that. Instead, a once-obscure music that enjoyed a fanatic embrace in the Peruvian slums of the 1970s has become a full-fledged global occasion – thanks to the stunning success of a 2007 CD called The Roots of Chicha.
The album, released by the Brooklyn-based Barbès Records, was a passionate act of cultural appreciation: a heartstrong effort to turn the world on its ear with something it had never expected to hear. It took listeners back to the late 1960’s, when a number of Peruvian guitarists from Lima and the Amazon created a new electric hybrid, which mixed cumbia, surf, Cuban guaracha, rock, Peruvian folklore, and psychedelic touches. This new wave of Peruvian cumbia came to be known as chicha. Scorned by the middle-class and the official tastemakers, chicha remained mostly associated with the slums of Lima, where the ever-growing population of Andean migrants embraced the music and its players as their own.
When Olivier Conan released the first volume of Roots of Chicha in September 2007, he couldn’t have foreseen the kind of impact it would have. The musician, who co-owns the club Barbès in Brooklyn and owns the label of the same name, had fallen in love with the music on a trip to Peru in the summer of 2006. Back in New York, he started his own band, Chicha Libre, as an attempt to share his enthusiasm. Then he released a compilation of some of the best chicha tracks from the ‘70s. The music quickly found an audience in the US and in Europe. Musicians and DJs embraced it as a lost link between rock and Latin cultures. Accolades flowed from the New York Times, NPR, Le Monde, El Comercio and the BBC. One of its songs was covered by the band Franz Ferdinand, actor Elijah Wood praised it profusely in an interview to Paste magazine. Chilean rock group Los Tres gave a copy of the record to then-president Bachelet, which somehow became national news. This very special double vinyl version contains the best tracks from
Olivier’s three releases, packaged in a beautiful Tip-On Gatefold jacket, and includes a 20 page full color booklet.
