Laine Klubiöö: TAPES

MUSIC, VIBES AND BASS PROVIDED BY DJ TAPES ALL NIGHT LONG AT UUS LAINE. EXPECT THE BEST OLD SKOOL CUTS OF DUB, DISCO, LO-FI HOUSE & TECHNO (MAYBE!?)

Originally hailing from South London, Tapes made his debut release on esteemed 8-bit digital reggae label Jahtari in 2009 with the “Hissing Theatricals” EP.

In the 15 years since, a wide variety of releases continued on a host of acclaimed labels: Soon after, a spate of releases and appearances continued on labels such as Honest Jons, Sextags, Astro:dynamics, Meeuw Musak, Porridge Bullet, EM Records, Research Records, Good Morning Tapes and Cav Empt. He has also toured as a DJ and Live performer extensively world wide and hosts regular “all night long” sessions in Tallinn, where he now resides.

Recently, and in cellebration of the labels 20th anniversary, Tapes returned to Jahtari with “Photos of my Frog EP“. The records four amphibious instrumental scorchers with two accompanying 8-bit versions have become the bed-rock of his current live sets, mixing these up with other unreleased dubplate versions of Tapes tunes new and old.

Tapes is a musician who continues to follow his own eccentric compass – guided by tape hiss, digital ghosts, and an unshakable fascination with the small, strange beauties of the everyday.
