Shuko is a German producer, born in 1981, who has been making music since 1999. He lives and works in an old factory building in a small village near Frankfurt unless he is in Paris, Berlin or New York working with your favorite artist. Shuko has produced music for a broad and impressive selection of artists such as Talib Kweli, Lil Wayne, Sexion d'Assaut, 1995, Cro, Kollegah and Casper.
Having had quite a run in 2012 with contributions on 2 golden, 1 platinum and 1 diamond album release he kicks off 2013 with a new insturumental album on Jakarta titles „Sleepless“. If one had to compare to his „Cookies & Cream“ releases this album offers a broader range of productions. From hard hitting drums and g-funk synths on „Westside“ to soulful chopped vocal samples on „Sad Day“ to dark horror film soundtrack music on „Thor“. Definetly a treat for the ear with with a wide ranging selection of beats that feel more like full songs rather then the background music for a MC to rap to.
The first 200 copies of the album will be pressed on dark green vinyl.
Be on the lookout for the upcoming editions of “Beats From Jakarta” series featuring albums by Ta-Ku and Mr.Troy. |
