__________________________________________

Blockhead & Poldoore team up for a unique two track collaboration titled "Welcome Mat / The End Is Nigh". With an interesting approach to two producers teaming up, the two tracks were created by Blockhead organizing a sample pack that Poldoore then used to create the songs.

Blockhead is coming off of a strong 2021, releasing his latest album "Space Werewolves Will Be The End Of Us All" which received repeat coverage from BBC, KEXP and KCRW, as well as releasing a full-length album with Aesop Rock on Rhymesayers. Poldoore's new album "Soft Focus" was also recently released via his own imprint.

"Welcome Mat / The End Is Nigh" will serve as a unique follow-up to the two producers' solo releases and drops with a limited vinyl edition via Future Archive Recordings on April 1, 2022.

Blockhead, Poldoore - The End Is Nigh

Lipphead is a production duo consisting of producers Blockhead and Eliot Lipp. Together they create playful instrumental hip hop creations that traverse wide musical territories.

Releasing via Michigan label Young Heavy Souls, the duo has crafted a truly individual sonic aesthetic that benefits from the significant wealth of musical talent and experience they both bring to the project.

Illustrated by artist Maddie Chaffer, the titular Lipphead character serves as the group’s mascot and as a tongue-in-cheek personification of the duo’s fused styles.

"On "The Squirrel from Ipanema", there was a subtle Astrud Gilberto vibe, so we leaned into that. Eliot took what was a fairly organic, sample-based mid-tempo track and spun it into a dope synthy electronic type thing. That process is really what this whole album is."

- Blockhead

"The Squirrel From Ipanema '' is first taste from the full length Lipphead album “In The Nude” due for release via Young Heavy Souls June 24th, and set to be available on digital, cassette, and vinyl formats.

The Squirrel From Ipanema

Lipphead (production duo Blockhead and Eliot Lipp) return with a second block rocking single from their debut album 'In The Nude'.

The cheekily titled 'Don't Worry Be Horny' is a reference both to the vocal sample that introduces the track, and the prolific use of brass throughout this glorious clash of electro synths and classic funk stylings. These two producers specialize in creating playful instrumental hip-hop that traverses numerous musical territories. 

Illustrated by artist Maddison Chaffer - the titular Lipphead character is an integral feature of the project serving as the group’s mascot and as a tongue-in-cheek personification of the duo’s fused styles. This talented triumvirate of musicians and artist combine perfectly to connect with their audience via quirky, smile-inducing sonics and visuals that could engage even the most hard nosed folk.

In their own words Lipphead explains further:

"I would say, with this album in general, it was both of us taking things we were working on that we liked but couldn’t find a home for. For us this was a very "there are no rules" type venture. We allowed ourselves to be silly and unconventional with all these songs. "Don’t Worry Be Horny" was a tip of the hat to Bobby McFerrin and born out of a somewhat goofy vocal sample. Part of the goal was to take something and turn it into something else entirely."

- Blockhead

"My favorite thing about the record is the audio cocktail that comes together when our two styles are blended. It’s refreshing to make music with such a loose process. We found ourselves focusing on our strengths, and trusting that our individual styles would complement each other.”

- Eliot Lipp

In The Nude

Don't Worry Be Horny

Lipphead is a production duo consisting of veteran producers Blockhead (Ninjatune, Future Archive Recordings) and Eliot Lipp (Alpha Pup) creating playful instrumental hip hop creations that traverse wide musical territories.

Lipphead’s sound is an infectious blend of atmospheric downtempo and driving electro funk.

Releasing via Michigan label Young Heavy Souls, the duo has crafted a truly individual sonic aesthetic that benefits from the significant wealth of musical talent and experience they both bring to the project.

Illustrated by artist Maddison Chaffer, the titular Lipphead character serves as the group’s mascot and as a tongue-in-cheek personification of the duo’s fused styles.

On the production of the album Blockhead explained “I would say, with this album in general, it was both of us taking things we were working on that we liked but couldn’t find a home for. For us this was a very “there are no rules” type venture. We allowed ourselves to be silly and unconventional with all these songs.”

Eliot Lipp went on to say “My favorite thing about the record is the audio cocktail that comes together when our two styles are blended. It’s refreshing to make music with such a loose process. We found ourselves focusing on our strengths, and trusting that our individual styles would complement each other.”

On their debut LP, Lipphead dances effortlessly between Blockhead’s journeying hip-hop beats, and Eliot Lipp’s synth-laden electronic swing. "In The Nude" is available digitally, as well as on vinyl, CD, and cassette.

Throughout Loci's existence, we’ve built up a real treasure trove of catalogue and of course some musically rich audio stems from across the globe.
Teaming up with Flamingosis and Blockhead in advance of their North American tour together, we have opened up the vaults and let these two producers in for a very special crate dig.

Creating a sample pack by pulling clips, loops, hits, out of prior Loci Records releases a unique and exclusive sample pack was given to Flamingosis and to Blockhead and they each created a brand new song using only the samples in the pack.

Daniel Avery's most ambitious and accomplished studio album to date, 'Ultra Truth', is out now on Phantasy + Mute.

'Ultra Truth' offers a very different listening experience to any of Avery’s previous records. It inhabits its own world of sound, a construct built in Avery’s Thames side studio with collaborative help from a host of friends: the production touch of Ghost Culture and Manni Dee, the vocals of HAAi, Jonnine Standish (HTRK), AK Paul and the voices of Marie Davidson, Kelly Lee Owens, Sherelle and James Massiah.

Humons - Underneath

'Tangerine Sour' is taken from 'A Thousand Clouds' by Emancipator & 9 Theory. 

A Thousand Clouds is the follow-up EP to Emancipator and 9 Theory's highly-acclaimed 2019 collaboration, Cheeba Gold. After the success of their first EP, and how fun and organic the making of it was, the two west-coast electronic music producers set out to see if they could recreate that magic once again with 4 new songs. The two spent one week together at Emancipator's studio in the Oregon woods and went from a completely blankslate to this finished new EP in just 6 days. To keep in the spirit of Cheeba Gold this new EP, A Thousand Clouds, was also intended to be only 4 songs, be made quickly without overthinking it too much, and the track order of the songs is again the same order in which they were made. The end result is another unique, magical blend of electronic, downtempo, indie, and hip-hop that lives somewhere really special outside of what either artist would ever make on their own.
