Mark de Clive-Lowe - Church (Album Kickstarter)

Written By 1 - October 15 2013

MdCL_by Farah Sosa Mark de Clive-Lowe is releasing his 11th studio album with help from Kickstarter, check here to find out more "(the) avant-garde soulful Pianist/DJ/Producer delivers his lifetime of journeys to different musical ports in a concise package, seamlessly... transporting not just in genre but in emotion and spirit." - Huffington Post USA Mark de Clive-Lowe (MdCL) is a multi-talented pianist, producer and live-remixer. The half-Japanese, half-New Zealander is now based in Los Angeles and over the past few years, his CHURCH clubnight has been a mainstay in both LA and NYC with guests ranging from contemporary jazz greats Eric Harland and Miguel Atwood-Ferguson, to hip-hop royalty Jean Grae and DJ Spinna, and legendary producers Questlove of The Roots and Leon Ware. Imagine a jazz club mashed up with a dance party siphoned through a hip hop sensibility and you’re starting to get some idea of what might be in store. Witness CHURCH in person, and you’ll see MdCL armed with piano, drum machines and all manner of technological toys leading the way on the bandstand making like a cross between McCoy Tyner and Flying Lotus – all over the piano’s 88 keys, programming beats on the fly while live sampling the guest vocalists and horn players. The man is literally creating records live on stage out of thin air. Surely he must have some plan here, but there’s clearly a heavy dose of inspired improvisation going on. De Clive-Lowe’s next project is to put CHURCH on the record. It’ll be his 11th studio album to date and will include special guest artists and musicians as well as plenty of the surprises that he’s made his trademark. To record and release the new album, Mark is turning to the popular crowd-funding website Kickstarter. The campaign will run for 30 days and supporters will be able to choose from pre-ordering the new album on multiple formats, getting back catalog packs, private lessons and plenty more. He’s even offering lifetime tickets for his shows anywhere in the world. Over the 30 day campaign, MdCL will also be releasing a brand new series of multi camera One Take solo performance videos where he displays the essence of his performance process using a grand piano, drum machine, keyboard and two effects pads. Creating from scratch, remixing and deconstructing in less than 3 minutes. It’s an impressive insight into the tip of his creative prowess. "...a timely reminder that some of the greatest producers, in line with the likes of Quincy and Stepney, are also musicians with chops as well as smart adventurers in sound." - Echoes Magazine UK Kickstarter Campaign: Sunday 13 October, 2013 4pm - Tuesday 12 November, 2013 4pm Links: Mark de Clive-Lowe Website  Twitter @MdCL Facebook   Instagram   Upcoming show dates: OCT 11 – Los Angeles with DJ Nu Mark + Money Mark EUROPE TOUR OCT 24 – Bergen Norway OCT 25 – Hamburg Germany OCT 26 – Berlin Germany NOV 1 – Padova Italy NOV 7 – Aix France NOV 8 – Istanbul Turkey

Ta-Ku - Dowhatyoulove LP (JAKARTA)

Written By 1 - October 05 2013

download (3)

Available Here

Australia might not be the first country one would think of when looking for authentic and classic hip-hop sounds but Producer Ta-Ku definitely proofs us wrong. Not only in his Home country Australia but all around the globe Ta-Ku's mix of smooth boom-bap and future sound create an authentic and well received vibe. The former student of Red Bull Music Academy has been dropping numerous Records and has received positive feedback from day one. Currently more then 25.000 ppl follow him on facebook, nearly 50.000 on soundcloud. Several well known Producers such as Gas Lamp Killer, Salva and Baauer, just to name a few, co-signed the Beatmaker out of Perth, he just did his first Boiler Room session, but it seems like all the positive feedback he has received so far only makes his strive for perfection grow. Influenced by names like J.Dilla and Dwele, Ta-Ku's sound remains original and displays his love for real hip-hop however what makes this cat special is his variety. Ta-Ku doesnt only understand to create the spirit of golden era hiphop but also makes you vibe to his own interpretation of Popstars such as Justin Timberlake for instance. His talent and skills allow him to operate in nearly every genre and he still manages it to create an authentic sound that everyone can relate to. This rare combination creates the impression that we have yet to see the full force of Ta-Ku's musical craft. Limited Edition, first 200 copies on coloured vinyl. Also be on the lookout for Ta-ku's "LOVEWHATYOUDO" EP with Blu spitting verses over a beat from this album as well as some exclusives.
