Andre Wiken is a visual and sonic artist. Traveling around the world in search of rare fabrics that he uses to craft one-of-a-kind hats, life in the world of his company Lower Park is very much a metaphor for the way he creates music. Mixing and matching patterns from different corners of the globe, pieces are seamlessly woven together to create joyously vibrant, meticulously textured works of art. His first release with Astro Nautico since 2015 single ‘Que Te Come Tiburon’, 'Mameluco' is a trio of late-night breezers, perfect for an impromptu dance party on the beach.

On ’Get Avion’, Pacific holiday pads are fastened to uptempo drums with Estef Najera’s catchy vocals listlessly riding along a soft-shifting melody dreamscape. The namesake of the EP, ‘Mameluco’ feels like a kinetic romp through childhood memories, sun-melted vibes evoking half-remembered parties and family vacations fading into images of old friends. ‘Nube Vielen’, perhaps the most club-functional of the three, is a hazy sunset glide through space, anchored by tropical polyrhythms that dare the listener not to get up and bust a move.

In celebration of this release, we are also selling a handful (read: RARE) of Wiken’s hand-sewn ‘Malikabota’ hats, featuring fabric personally sourced from Kathmandu, Nepal.

Born and raised in South London, Hector Plimmer is a multi-faceted producer, composer and DJ whose sound is drenched in tribal rhythms and beautifully crafted bass. Influenced by beat-makers like Flying Lotus and Theo Parrish, but with the subtleties of the classic Metalheadz era drum and bass, his second album 'Next To Nothing' is released on 25th October 2019. The album features guests Ego Ella May, Emma-Jean Thackray, Pie Eye Collective, Alexa Harley; and Andrew Ashong who guests on new single ‘Somebody Else’.

After featuring on Brownswood Bubblers 11, curated by Gilles Peterson, Hector proved his talent when he was selected as a winner of the PRS Steve Reid InNOVAtion award.  At a performance at ‘Sounds Of The Universe’ Record store, Hector caught the attention of Albert's Favourites' label heads Adam Scrimshire & Dave Koor. A conversation was started which led to the transfer of almost a whole album's worth of material and resulted in his debut full length record ‘Sunshine’. 

'Sunshine' was met with rapturous acclaim. The record went on to be awarded Gilles Peterson’s album of the week on his BBC 6 Music show and was championed by both Lauren Laverne and Tom Ravenscroft on the station as well as Jamie Cullum on BBC Radio 2. Its success on the airwaves transcended to streaming with the inclusion in the top 50 viral US chart on Spotify.

"This album has been a real labour of love. I spent the most part of a year trying to make music I thought would be fitting to follow my last album, whilst not actually knowing what that might sound like. 'Sunshine' had been received way more positively than I had anticipated and although praise is a lovely thing, it was the cause of much anxiety when the time came to start on this record. I put a lot of pressure on myself to produce music and kept going down routes that felt forced or just didn’t click for me, in hindsight I realise this was me making music not for myself, but for what I imagined other people might want to hear. In a way 'Next to Nothing' is my first real album, 'Sunshine' was more like a collection of four to five years worth of music compiled into the shape of one. This is my first dedicated attempt at creating a cohesive project, something that shows who I am right now and what got me here."
