Belleruche Four Songs EP
Belleruche - Four Songs EP
(2x7"/CD) Hippoflex HF003, 2006-12-16

Review :
Belleruche is the latest band signed to UK leading label Tru Thoughts. As soon as the deal was announced, previous efforts of the group popped up instantly on all specialized p2p services, proving the major and global interest generated by the Brighton label...
Belleruche is a scratch dj (Modest), a singer (Kathrin de Boer), and guitarist (Ricky Fabulous). They call their shit "turntable soul music". They've already released two other auto-produced collector singles, and a few tracks and remixes here and there, and their latest effort is their best yet. It's a double 7 inch with an obsessive hip hop ballad ("Northern Lights"), a swinging brassy breakbeat march ("Minor Swing"), a heavy soul number ("Bump") and a tiny bit Kid-Koala-dified acoustic pop/folk song ("Balance")! Tasty, ain't it? The sound is a bit lo-fi but we can only have high hopes for their next release on Tru Thoughts...

Press Release :
45 rpm 7" single on Hippoflex. Numbered limited edition of 1000, or CD issue with handstitched packaging (Sold out!!).
The second Hippoflex release. The Itch is heavy. It's three minutes of hook ridden and bass driven soul, underpinned with lead booted drums. It's always louder than I think. The B side is an 'acoustic' thing, made with broken leads, twisted tension and a small room. It's still hiphop though.

Bird Mess has a twisted scratched trumpet solo, a kick ass vocal line and you can dance to it......
