A genius, a maestro, already sampled by big names. But we had to do something around this Sir who recently passed away. From "The Nucleus", the musical "Two Gentleman of Verona", the unfamous "Boogie Man" & of course "Shapes Of Rythm" we tried to make a journey through the world of McDarmot. Hope you'll have a nice trip with us.RIP Galt MacDarmot.
The project centers around love and the fear of love, which turns out to be a fear of vulnerability. And out of fear you mask your expression, so that you won’t experience hurt. But who’s gonna save you from the hurt of too late? No juice flows while there is cap, likewise, no love flows while there is mask.
Founding member of West Coast collective Endless Waltz, Wing Zero steps out on his own with the Sakura EP inspired by his travels in Japan.
King Most follows the Redirection Collection with Sharing Is Caring (Redirections EP) featuring reworks of Prodigy, Beyoncé, Cutty Ranks, and Cherelle x Alexander O’Neal.
Nimzo drops a nod to the dusty loops and jazz samples of Golden Era hip-hop titled Waves, Vibes and Frequencies.

Loopstrumentals is a selection of their works from the past decade. Some tracks root back to the early soundcloud daze, where the whole instrumental hip hop reneissance started, some tracks are freshly mixed in their lab. Either way, these guys have always been a huge inspiration to the blunt shelter crew, so releasing this gem feels completely unreal and elevating. Just like their beats. Enjoy :)
