PLEXUS RECORDS & Somepling present "PaperSkies".
This is the first full length effort by French producer Somepling, after a bunch of projects including releases on Stillmuzik, Outlier Recordings, Cold Busted, Sickonasty, and three self-released vinyl records.

Somepling first appeared on The DJ Shadow Remix Project in 2010. His work was then featured twice on the Bandcamp weekly show, he was playlisted by DJ Vadim, TJ Kid & DJ Woody, highlighted on XLR8R, and named soundclouder of the day in 2011.

On "PaperSkies", the mood is mellow, each track carefully crafted, using the finest samples to build progressive instrumental Hip-Hop stories. Somepling's clearly influenced by Express Rising, DJ Shadow's early work, and also Spiritual/modal jazz moods; his dusty instrumentals made on the MPC 2000XL are perfect to escape, and obviously, an invitation to sit back and let the record spins.

This LP comes in a limited silk-screened edition of 275 copies, all hand-numbered and pressed on 180gr vinyl. 12"x 12" silk-screened insert/poster included. Original art is an engraving made by Jérôme Bouchard.

Mastering vinyl "Master Plus".
Mastering digital "Kasablanka".

Lucas Dulac is a self realized multi talented artist. He was born in Lyon, France in 1991. 
Today Lucas is a passionnante musician, photographer and filmmaker. 

He was the lead singer & songwriter for his Funk-Rock band the Daffs from 2006 to 2010, during wich he explored the local Lyon music scene, and ended up signing on the French electronic music label Apostat as Luky U, under wich he started his expérimental hip-hop and lounge music productions. (visit "lukyou.bandcamp.com" for his latest Album)

He co-owned a creative video production company “La Moue”, from 2010 to 2012, and was also during that time the official photographer for Swarm Productions, a Lyon based Music Label. Nowadays he works with the French Apostat Underground Music Label, creating original Images and music videos (see Music Art & Film Work). 

Nazu Oyasumi is a producer, beatmaker and DJ from Montpellier.
His musical influences are quite broad: Trip Hop, Dub, Rap, Electronic Music ...
Also a visual artist, his goal is to mix his two passions (drawing and music) as sincerely as possible in order to create a complete universe.
His first track "Nomade" in collaboration with Didascalie announces the release of his first EP which will be available soon.

Real Don Music, the ongoing decade long experiment of inveterate weirdo and serial bandleader Kirk Huffman (Gatsbys American Dream, Kay Kay & His Weathered Underground, Wild Orchid Children, Co-Producer Portugal. The Man "Censored Colors" etc.) calls upon his copious experiences and influences to channel a horn laden and synth layered psychedelic Trip-Hop & Acid Jazz, Steely Dan on Stones Throw pop sound he confidently calls his own.  Named after the genius singer-songwriter of Sesame Street, the eternally frustrated, occasionally masochistic pianist known as Don Music, Huffman's lyrical themes of light and darkness run thematic to the Muppets wild mood swings.  One of Seattle's most unique and enigmatic acts, Huffman operates as an autonomous force, free from the obligatory and increasingly irrelevant cycles of the music industry, releasing songs and playing select club and festival dates when the mood strikes and flushes out the live act with synths, a trio of horns, drummer, percussionist and turntablist.  Having recently released the first two singles: "Eyes On Me" & "Outlook Not So Good" from the forthcoming & long-anticipated 2025 full length LP "Pet Care: or The Righteous One Takes Care Of Their Animal" Huffman's inventions and visions push the limits of not only how a band can sound, but what it can look like and how it can operate.  Providing lasting relationships with bandmates, industry newcomers and veterans alike, fellow lifer musicians recognize Huffman as one of their own, passing up opportunities to move to Los Angeles, he continues to nurture the local music community that gave him his career and the family that gives him big picture perspective.  Striking album art, compelling videos, tight performances and of course the music, composed and precise: weighted by heavy grooves and driven by moving melodies, together they reveal a Real Don Music as Huffman's latest and greatest gift to a world hungry for the real and much like his current namesake, he's ok banging his head until a creative solution comes loose.  After all, nothing good ever comes easy.  Nor has his story come full circle.  More like a controlled spiral into the unknown with Real Don Music his good as new gold.
