Today we are announcing the first compilation that we are putting together with artists we’re close to or a part of the movement.  For 10 years our focus has always been to provide the best and a solid ground for artists to put out their music – we are now trying a new approach and putting our name on a release to showcase our favorite producers in a collection of tracks carefully picked by the staff.

The vibe in the release is a flight mode collection of tracks before a night out or just cruising in the car on a sunny day or evening. A moment you could have before all this technology came to life was going to your friends house not knowing what to expect and i think this could describe the project pretty well. 

The focus has always been beats that vary in around 70 to 90 bpm but here we are seeing a boost in the tempo and i truly hope all of the listeners will appreciate the tracks we’ve added, the producers were introduced to the idea i mentioned above and i let them fully experiment with a style and not limit them in terms of creation.

For each of these projects in the future our aim will also be to showcase photographers, illustrators or painters to bring out and show light on people we appreciate in this scene. For this project i wanted someone i know that spends his weekends around the streets of Los Angeles taking shots of some of the most beautiful cars & crews around the area. 

The House Blends compilation can now be found on all streaming services – To get directed please press here and select the one you favor.  Make sure all artists included in the compilation for their journey.

This is the first project we are putting out under the label name on the catalog and i couldn’t be more honored for the artists that wanted to join. Thank you to everyone that’s showing support and spreading the word about this one. Already excited to cook up more projects like this!

Escaping from a Violent Time

Future For Our Children

Flute, congas, bass, drums, guitar and clavinet; this unconventional arrangement of instruments intertwine to form the debut album by Badge Époque Ensemble - a group of creative improvisers assembled to perform new, largely instrumental compositions by Maximilian ‘Twig’ Turnbull (formerly Slim Twig).

Badge employs an eclectic cast of characters from the Toronto underground music scene, whose combined experience would take pages to spell out. It includes stints accompanying songwriters Andy Shauf and Marker Starling, outfitting heavies Blood Ceremony and Biblical, and respective careers spent gigging Django-jazz and the classical cannon. Badge’s distinctive sound arises from the diversity of these musical exploits, creating a palpable chemistry well captured on the live-tracked songs that form the group’s self-titled debut.

Part of this crucial chemistry can be attributed to the fact that four of the six players in the Ensemble have been at the core of the live, U.S. Girls band, a group that has scorched stages internationally over the past year and was hailed by Paste magazine as the best live band of 2018. Since 2015, when Turnbull released his final record as Slim Twig for DFA, he has largely concentrated his efforts as a producer and writer on the U.S. Girls project, together with making contributions to the theatrical rock outfit, Darlene Shrugg and the psychedelic jazz-funk collective, The Cosmic Range. Badge’s set of songs is yet another 180-degree turn for an increasingly collective-minded bandleader, who is singularly disdainful of any genre orthodoxy.

The record is a collection of densely packed grooves, arranged by committee. Dank set pieces culminate in album standout, ‘Undressed In Solitude’, which features the otherworldly r ’n b of guest vocalist, James Baley. Over 11 simmering minutes, the track defies the contemporary fixations of automated music to convincingly combine sensual and cerebral textures. While it may call to mind an improbable collision.

These tracks have been written across the globe and feature dear friends and family. I like experimenting with a broad range of musical ideas, so this mixtape felt like the perfect opportunity to freely combine different and current sonic interests without limiting myself to a more cohesive album format. 

I would also like to take this opportunity to say thank you to everyone who has been listening to my music over the years. While uncertain times aren’t over, your support means everything to me. I have therefor decided to make the mixtape available to download for free on Bandcamp - but any donations will be greatly appreciated. 

Proceeds will be given to the Stephen Lawrence Charitable Trust, a UK based charity working with communities and young people from disadvantaged and under-represented backgrounds, helping to transform lives and create a society in which everyone, regardless of their background, can flourish. 

Let’s keep pushing for positive change together! ✨ 

Much love, 
Paul White x

FRC is a radio show where I invite people to give them the space to play the music they love and that inspires them. In this first installment I invited my brother @suff-daddy. In my eyes he is one of the most tasteful selectors I have met over the years and I'm very happy to have him on the show and on my upcoming album.
