Digital & vinyl label

Inspired by the recent events and faces creeping through the ever-awakening party lair of their hometown, a small bunch of Split native DJ's, producers and promoters has finally arrived to a deciding plot of founding their newborn - an electronic music label. "Sit Down Recordings" should take place in the midst of a highly developed Mediterranean club scene right at its peek, creating space amongst the aggressive tech house impact on the side of another, festively intensive summer swarm gathered and powered around the exclusive, massive electronic music events taking place here the last few years. 

The uprising of the fresh and powerful new scene has eventually risen with the flavours of a less self-contained taste of the founders and with the clear intention to beget a flow of some juicier picks and licks. They be brought to mind by styles and genres of soulful house, tech house with jazzy keyboards and deep pads. And then some... The attempt is observable: to bring forth the atmosphere and prana of Chicago and New York in some more laid - back manner, combining artists, mixtapes and, hopefully, live events, all into the walls of the anciently energised walls and lands and their modern subcultural antipodes.

So be their way, in the right way, cheers!

Members: Juri Paik & Tome R

"A ship in harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are made for" 
Child of an a shipbuilder, born in the time of cold war; direction Juri Paik took when in the end of 90's made a turning point and went winding way Djinga and production. Electronic music he was making spontaneously was added on punk/new wave childhood, somewhere on prismatically floor Split's night club "Up & Down" at the end of the 90's. Gramophone and mixette slowly replaced the band and the garage. In accord with that period influence on global underground scene, first trophy in listeners/collectionars carrier, Juri Paik founded himself in techno music. On the influence of those days assistant of Inaf's, he explored music production and out of his expectations he ejects vinil on promo/white label, extremely influential Missile Records from London. He is still working on production and he is one loop in Decoded Records chain where he notes couple of releases. Eliminates hiperproduction and quietly experiments in pursuits for basses wich will be incredible fashionable. As a beggining, sound of Juri Paik's sets expanded from Intec's, Terminal M's and Primate's, all to variety capilars techno and house music. From the day we entered in "digital period", he admits he values the most the german scene; because of the precisely production and also because superior visual identification under strong influence from Berlin, and in sets he promotes organic notes in at first non-emotional hypnotized modern age sound. With experience he got the chance to take over gramophones in Dubrovnik, Belgrade, Sarajevo, Zagreb and most of dalmatians night clubs and underground club evenings in the last 10 years. He is also an all time dj at fashion shows in Split.
