Thristian bPm (Boiler Room, NTS) begins his series of Global Roots nights at Village Underground by inviting Brownswood Recordings’ Owiny Sigoma Band to perform their live show, following their Europe-wide tour supporting Thom Yorke’s ‘Atoms For Peace’. Thristian will be manning the decks before and after Owiny Sigoma Band’s show.

One of the original architects of the Boiler Room, Thristian bPm has built a reputation as an instinctive and eclectic DJ, and as the Head of Music for Boiler Room, he’s responsible for the dynamic and eclectic line-ups that have become synonymous with Boiler Room sessions from around the world – from London to Los Angeles, and Berlin to Cape Town.

Owiny Sigoma Band, whose second album ‘Power Punch’ was released in March this year, align perfectly with Global Roots: two Kenyan musicians playing traditional West African instruments alongside four London based producers, twisting the African elements and adding contemporary electronic styles. ‘Power Punch’ has received widespread acclaim, with the Observer calling the album ‘Ingenious’ and Q Magazine claims ‘cuts across genres with winning flair’.

William Adamson (Live) + DJs Demus (2bo4), Hello Skinny, Alex Patchwork
Facebook Event

We’re very proud of this record by one of our closest companions – the very talented Rob Gallagher (and friends). Produced by heritage futurists 2 Banks Of 4, Gallagher has created a topographical travelogue – a concept album in the truest sense – where the songs tell fragments of stories that have grown out of a small region in the Eastern Horn of England, with sounds more akin to recordings emanating from the Louisiana marshlands. Drawing on the abundant talents of Tom Skinner (drums); Finn Peters (flute); Shawn Lee (guitars); Tom Rodwell (guitars); Tom Herbert of The Invisible (bass); Gil Cang (organ); Valerie Etienne (voices); and Alice Grant (voices), William Adamson’s voyage into deepest East Anglia shares the same musical roots as Tom Waits and Dr. John.

This one has sent our Twitter feed into overdrive.

We’re excited to announce ‘I Have Love 4 You’ from Anushka’s Yes Guess EP. The Brighton-based duo’s debut release is out on Brownswood Recordings 15th April.

Gilles dropped ‘I Have Love 4 You’ on his BBC 6 Music show in late 2012 and it received a big reaction – so we’re pleased to reveal that it’s on its way soon. Expect ‘I Have Love 4 You’ to be all over the clubs and festivals in 2013.

Bring on the summertime.

Drawing on the UK’s rich heritage of scattered snares, sub low rumble and breakbeat culture in its myriad forms, Anushka release their debut – Yes Guess EP – digitally on 15th April 2013 via Brownswood Recordings.

The Moodymann-esque ‘Tried & Tried’ – featured on Brownswood electr*c 3 – hinted at the duo’s enormous potential to conquer the electronic-pop realm, and the Yes Guess EP fulfils that promise and cements their reputation as one of the most exciting dance acts for 2013.
