„Dear Division“ is a lifted breaks, dusty rare groove and half-slung drums mixed tape by „No Such Cologne Jazz Division“ in co-operation with the Cologne based Label „as/if records“ with mainly garage , soul, hiphop and house influences. The mixtape is underlined with old VHS cutouts and the whole thing was partly recorded on vinyl and finally compiled in Ableton.
