UPCOMING EVENTSView All
This year is a veritable feast for the music lover, Roxy Music, Gil Scott Heron, Massive Attack, LeftField, Cymande, Edan, Fat Freddys Drop, LCD Sound System, Liquid Liquid, Mr Scruff & The Breakestra to name but a few. Also expect some DJing from ourselves also in some shape or form. Check the EP site for full details, which we proudly built.
Dumile’s eccentric wordplay makes him a favorite of independent music fans. He is heavily influenced by American comic books (especially the Fantastic Four and their battles with Dr. Doom). Japanese science fiction is also an influence; the concept for King Geedorah (which is derived from Ghidorah) and the Monsta Island Czars comes from the Godzilla movie series. He is also renowned for bringing comedy back into the sometimes overly serious world of rap lyrics and a unique, sample-heavy production style. His fans include Thom Yorke, Flying Lotus, Hypnotic Brass Ensemble, Gilles Peterson and Dizzee Rascal.
Sharon’s raw power, rhythmic swagger, moaning soulfulness, and melodic command set her firmly alongside Tina Turner, James Brown, Mavis Staples, and Aretha as a fixture in the canon of soul music. From the lushPhilly-Soul fanfare that ushers in “The Game Gets Old” at the top of the record, to the stripped down Sam Cooke-style “Mama Don’t Like My Man” at the tail, the Dap-Kings dance seamlessly through both the most crafted and simple arrangements with subtlety and discipline. I Learned the Hard Way is the “Daptone Sound” at its finest.LATEST POSTSView All
