Lurka – Hotline Records Mix

As regular Tape-Echo readers may already be aware, Hotline Recordings second release 'Full Clip'/BR Greaze' by Lurka is due to hit record shelves early next week. A formidable record that defies easy classification…Dillinja making dancehall seems to be the favourite analogy around here though… After some sustained arm twisting, it is our pleasure to be able to bring you the first Hotline Mix from the man himself, an hour long blend including tracks from the likes of Nils Frahm, Vatican Shadow, DJ Rashad, Amadou Ballaké, Container and EQD. Echoing the eccentricities and complexities in his own productions, which, on paper, shouldn't work - yet they come across sounding effortless. His boutique selections are blended seamlessly to create an immersive and satisfyingly mind-bending trip, testament to his skill as both a DJ and producer. We hope you enjoy the mix as much as we have. Hotline002 is on on April 9th. A limited number of advance copies are available from www.rwdfwd.com Alex Digard.
