Fri 6th Soundcrash Productions presents BELLERUCHE + DJ Vadim + DJs Remote & Duck [Big Chill]
Doors 7.30 Belleruche, the London based Turntable Soul trio have been working feverishly to produce their debut album following the success of their limited edition own label 7" releases over the last two years. Recently signed to the innovative Tru-thoughts Records, the home of Quantic & Nostalgia 77, the album is due for release on the 16th of July and tonight, at Luminaire, they will launch it. Support will be provided by DJ Vadim the international independent jetset superstar DJ/Producer with a record box to suit every occasion. Belleruche produce handmade hip-hop-blues-soul. Like Sarah Vaughan, Django Reinhardt and Cut Chemist stuck in a lift with Russian beer and a sampler. The band's new album provides a fuzzy snapshot of the Belleruche trio's different approach to music and production – combining heartfelt melodies with twisted scratched drums, snap sharp snares with chopped vintage basslines, and vinyl soul with hook filled songs.
The tracks on 'Turntable Soul Music' conjure thoughts of Stax Records recording Django Rheinhardt with Dr Dre controlling the mixing desk. Or Eryka Badu jamming with Mixmaster Mike recorded onto analogue tape by the Dust Brothers. |
