„One day I visited Caris at her home and recorded her playing solo for one hour straight. While listening back to what she played I immediately found this one part that I turned into a loop because it was just perfect. The feeling of finding something you want to hear over and over again is so fundamental, I hope its beauty and fascination will never leave me.“

ALL MUSIC ARRANGED, PRODUCED AND MIXED BY OPEK
DOUBLE-BASS: CARIS HERMES

MASTER - LEON MACHE
ARTWORK - PARISSA CHARGI & DIE OTTOS

„Opek prefers the cozy retirement life over the hectic leasing lifestyle. The beatproducer, drummer and rapper was born in the Ruhr area in 1990. Not on coal and not on gold, but somewhere where there was a computer and a big brother who explained to him around 2004 how ‘Fruity Loops’ works and what a snare is. And then there was hip hop, this thing that can suddenly fill every spare minute.

After years of drunken freestyles in the park and nights of producing on Windows 98 computers, he moved on (via excursions into guitar music) to jazz. This wondrous music brought Opek to the Netherlands in 2011, where he devoted himself to the art of jazz drumming for 4 years. After that he landed in Dortmund with empty pockets. Eventhough he was filled with doubt, he kept firing up the machines, even the MPC had a bigger purpose than a doorstop or ashtray holder.

Expeditions then took Opek to almost every smoky backstage in Germany and Switzerland, especially as a drummer and producer in the trio ‘Schlakks, Opek & Razzmatazz’. He now shares an office space with ‘Cerm MC’ aka. ‘Cmern’. This is how the joint project ‘Cmern & Opsay’ came into being, where even a serious word about bumpy beats is allowed to fall.

The greyness of the city is and remains the inspiration and drive for Opek to create even more cozy sounds. And so he continues to create hits that could be played in a museum in 400 years, provided that the USB sticks will last.“

An initiative by @darkerthanwax (Singapore) and Cascade Records (France), 
independent labels from different continents have come together to present a 
very special and heartfelt project, known as 'Feelings in Colour".

This LP marks a milestone, besides being an exclusive collaboration between 
the labels - it also features a conglomerate of many different artistes from 
all over the world. Resonating with the covert ideology and movement within 
the creative independent sphere in the two Metropolitan cities of Singapore 
and Paris - both spearheaded by dedicated locals who push to develop the 
alternative, forward thinking culture within their respective cities, while 
inadvertently appealing and reaching out to international talents and fans.

With stalwarts from the likes of @amin-payne (Australia), @ohbliv (US), 
@ill-sgimoto (Japan), @samueltruth (New Zealand), @milomills (Austria), 
@trian-kayhatu (Holland), @monkadelic (France).. and founders of DTW, 
@cosanostra (Singapore) - this release speaks great volumes that yield an 
amazing experience.

While genres are disparate - future beats, deep house, bass etc.. - the 
creative concept isn’t. From the minor details of thoughts put into it, to 
the artistes' passion and competence, every single contribution is accounted 
for into making this a really special affair.

"Feelings in Colour" is the thread that weaves the music into the movement- 
cut from the same cloth. We truly hope you enjoy listening, as much as we 
did putting this together.

Bugseed - 'Inner City Blues' | 'FEELINGS IN COLOUR' | VIDEO

Rhythm Roulette (Shows how I made this beat): https://youtu.be/CkQBAxAQbbY

2pac Me Against The World Remix: https://soundcloud.com/tapeheadloops/against-the-world

Initially this was the beat I was the least happy with from the rhythm roulette video. Worked on it the most after the video and tweaked the flips slightly, worked a lot on the mix too to get it sounding smooth, and am defo a lot more happy with it now.

Against The World (Instrumental)

Unfortunately I never uploaded the EP until now, but the next collection is coming soon.

Octopus Dreams

Some more new music. Lots of guitar and mostly all live recorded instrumentation on this one.

I'm trying to post more consistently now and I think the way to do that is for me focus on individual tracks rather than grand EPs. 

I'm thinking I might release a compilation mixtape soon though to get around this, so I can focus on standalone tracks but still put out some sort of project. 

Who knows... maybe some type of 'assorted / selected works' thing coming soon x
