straight hi class deep house from japan

new benedek on apron records!

la s benedek delivers a killer old school house lp influenced by 78th street era beltram, latin freestyle dubs and wbmx drum tracks. this is street beat at it s finest and benedek executes with precision. classy and catchy, with a knack for melody yet still grimey as hell and full of beats you can mix. primetime -86 mix show material brought to life in the present tense, carrying on with tradition while flipping it upside down. artwork by maximum exposure. highly recommended!

second circle is proud to announce it’s tenth release to date with a new ep from l.a. producer benedek. earlyman dance was recorded at benedek s studio in koreatown, los angeles and fuses mechanistic rhythms and synth work as well as live percussion and trumpet played by friends chris parise and anthony calonico. . with five vibed out compositions of coyote jazz, dance floor fusion and canyon bangers earlyman dance is an ode to the urban and natural landscapes of la, late night noir and early morning sunrises, accented with benedek s signature chord progressions, bouncing bass lines, meticulous drum programming and dubbed out trumpet.

get 2 know nicky benedek: a producer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and dj. his compositions bridge the nebulous territories of house, boogie, hip-hop, jazz-fusion and experimental new age. born and bred in los angeles, benedek began pulling inspiration from the city’s structural and visual dichotomies at a young age. he picked up a guitar at 9 years-old, taking note of any and all sonic surroundings, from prevalent west coast g-funk to the synthesized sound effects in video games to a herbie hancock record pulled from his dad’s collection. amongst a complex set of influences, funk took a hold on his heart by high school. bene’s world is benedek’s second leaving records release, following last year’s coolin’ ep as well as a full-length debut on the influential peoples potential unlimited label. his catalogue also includes collaborations with dam-funk, delroy edwards and tom noble. recorded between his koreatown studio and the west la home he grew up in, bene’s world captures the characteristically-la mingling of urban action and canyon seclusion.

als vinyl streng limitiertes debütalbum des aus der bay area stammenden und in los angeles ansässigen künstlers harriet brown, das auf seine ep -new era- aus dem jahr 2014 folgt. es ist kein geheimnis, dass der multiinstrumentalist und produzent stark von prince und sade inspiriert ist. die musik der one-man band ist ein mix aus elektronischen sounds aus drum-maschinen, synthesizern, geloopten live-aufnahmen und sinnlichen vocals. die atmosphäre ist sinnlich, sexuell, vieldeutig und androgyn. das album erscheint bei innovative leisure aus los angeles, heimat von nick waterhouse, badbadnotgood, hanni el khatib, etc. für fans von prince, classixx, kelela, nao, sade, blood orange, u.a.!
