Strange Behaviour & Matterhorn present INKSWEL

Strange Behaviour & Matterhorn present INKSWEL (BBE Music/Hot Shot Sounds)


Matterhorn, Wellington
Friday 1 May, 9pm-late, 2015


Fusing hip hop, boogie, and house comes naturally to Adelaide-based Inkswel, a self-confessed ‘B-Boy’ who plays at the Matterhorn in Wellington on Friday 1 May. The immensely talented beatmaker and DJ is a drum machine aficionado, and it shows in his critically acclaimed releases for cult labels such as BBE Music, Dopeness Galore, Lumberjacks in Hell, Wolf Music, Rush Hour, and his own imprint, Hot Shot Sounds. The globetrotting producer has also collaborated underground heavyweights such as Recloose, Funkineven, Steve Spacek, Andras Fox, Iron Curtis and Kiwi-vocalist Isaac Aesili.


Playing in Wellington for the first time, Inkswel is touring in support of the album, Superfoods Vol.1, the first in a trilogy of specially selected albums of original productions for BBE Music (home to likes of J.Dilla and DJ Spinna). Packed full of stellar vocal performance over undeniably sleazy, soulful production, the LP is simply irresistible from start to finish. Last year his ‘Cloud Eaters’ EP topped both the Juno and Rush Hour charts and featured as vinyl release of the week in Fact Magazine, with all of his releases receiving heavy support from Benji B and Alexander Nut on BBC and Rinse FM, two of the scenes most important tastemakers.


This will be Strange Behaviour and Matterhorn’s fourth collaborative event, after recent shows with Red Rack Em’ (Germany), Session Victim (Germany), and Frank Booker (NZ), all of which have been a resounding success, with our reputation for good vibes and great music building momentum with every show. In keeping with our philosophy of doing parties for the love of it, the door price has been keep to $10, and a great local line-up also features, with Cosmo performing a live SP-404 set, Wellington legend Omega B laying down a boogie and breaks selection, and Flava and Gus in DJ support.
