Low End Theory Japan & The GLKKK

I don’t know if you kept up with the blog before the site revamp a few months ago, but if you did, remember that Low End Theory Japan tee we did for their tour back in September? I understand if it escaped your brain, I barely remember what I did before lunch today. Well, just to refresh your memory, we had the opportunity to design their official tour tee and after sorting thru a bunch of random marketing boxes here, we found a pile of these puppies, hangin out (smokin’ a bean) waiting for me to release these back out in the wild. Below is the official tee in all it’s glory, front and back… Click here!

Just to give you a bit of our history with Low End Theory LA, we here at the office are lovers of music, all types, all styles. Although we follow the somewhat “party” scene here in LA with Danceright and random warehouse parties. Chris (Free The Robots) and Willy (The GLK) kept me updated with the sprouting LA beat scene that I’ve seen progress over the years, a scene that I believe J Dilla and Madlib set the foundation for. Not to discredit all the other producers out there (everybody’s great!), but I feel that the mood of their music opened peoples eyes to a lot of these new and up and coming bedroom wizzies out of Southern California. At one of the first Free The Robot Low End shows, I was able to meet world renowned producer and Alpha Pup Records owner, Daddy Kev. His direction differentiated himself from all other Hip Hop’ish nights, with each resident being a self sustaining headlining act at any other show. With the ambiance of the Airliner Bar each wednesday night is like a “sonic” punk show, with high energy and new experimental sounds and if you’re not careful, you can do some serious damage to your eardrums… a warning to all those speaker boppers out there. His roster includes D-Styles, DJ Nobody, MC Nocando, Daddy Kev, and our very own Gaslamp Killer.

here are some vids to give you an idea of what it’s like…



Speaking of the GLK, I also wanted to post up the new LA Record cover, featuring a half corn rowed jew.
