Music by @sirrtmo, press release by @daveQuam, mastering by @dbk_teklife, art by @ashes57

The ever prolific @sirrtmo brings us 888 (INFINITY), a mediation for these particularly dark modern times. Seeped in various realms of spirituality that he’s been studying in recent years, his debut Teklife long-player is a collection of interpolations from his travels throughout the world, as well as at home in the streets of Chicago. Fusing ideas he’s learned from yogis, Buddhist philosophers and Sufi musicians with footwork rhythms, he’s created a fresh, metaphysical sound that isn’t restricted to any one era.

While his craft is derived from years spent battling and DJing throughout Chicago, he pulls from sound sources a bit outside those of his contemporaries, favoring jazz and folk to popular music samples. Opening the album up with On Your March, Get Set, Go!, big rude horns take on spastic breaks, forming a lurking, mutant marching band. Tracks like 3166, Astral Traveling, and Ethiopian Soul Food use a fusion-leaning palette, with big orchestral strings, Rhodes chords, and earthy sax loops riding triplet drums and throbbing bass. Closing things out, System Failure 2022 is a testimonial to societal collapse in pandemic times, a chaotic maelstrom of digital terror where the reliance on technology comes to a violent crash. 


888 (INFINITY)  is an epic collage of the Chicago anomaly’s bottomless influences and curiosities, with huge, layered composition. He’s created something cinematic and lush without drenching it in too many FXs, innovating with the tools given to him, while withholding the integrity of footwork culture. TMO stretches the possibilities of traditional framework to new realms, not forgetting where he comes from, but not afraid to take things to new cosmic dimensions. It’s an album that reflects our current times, the good and the very bad, channeling both the grim realities and the healing frequencies needed to escape them.

Hesk is a Footwork DJ and producer from the Netherlands, currently based out of Toronto, playing a key role in the diffusion of Footwork and Juke in Canada since 2010.

"While working on Cleansed the primary focus was to make cold, footwork-battle ready tracks while still keeping club dance floors in mind. I pushed my boundaries as a producer, experimenting with more minimal and less-sounding tracks composed primarily of drums, sub bass, and synthesizers. Whereas in the past I've focused my productions around a Soul or RnB heavy sound that often includes samples, for this project I mainly used hardware such as the Dave Smith OB-6 and the Roland MC-307."

We're releasing two tracks today to raise money for bail funds in aid of the protestors fighting police brutality and systemic racism in the wake of the murder of George Floyd at the hands of the Minneapolis Police Department and to add our voice to the call for an end to the racist subjugation and brutalisation of black people in the US and across the world. 

We will also be donating to the Movement of Asylum Seekers in Ireland (MASI) an independent platform for asylum seekers that seeks to end the inhumane system of Direct Provision in Ireland and 'seeks justice, freedom and dignity for all asylum seekers.

The tracks will be available from today however we would encourage people to wait until Friday the 5th of June to purchase as this will coincide with Bandcamp waiving their revenue fees.

100% of all money made on the sales of this single will go towards the causes mentioned above
