Duncal Powell x Ego Thieves – Franked

Ego Thieves have finally had the privilege of working with the legendary UK Garage producer, Duncan Powell, bringing you our very first album ‘Franked’. Dedicated to the memory of Amy Winehouse and the modern day classic album, ‘Frank’.

Guided by the availability of the samples, he remixed the tracks into whatever style was naturally formed whilst working. Therefore a mixture of Garage, Dub, Down tempo, Hip Hop and D&B can all be found in the album.

With artwork from JC Adams & Jenai, we hope you enjoy this tribute to one of the greatest artists of our generation. We may sell a limited edition, high quality print of the artwork. If you are interested email us on info@egothieves.com

Fink – Perfect Darkness (Lapalux Remix)

Here at Ego Thieves HQ, we are very proud of fellow Essex dweller, Lapalux. Only 22 years old, he recently celebrates the fact he has been signed to the mecca of Electronica, Brainfeeder (Home of Flying Lotus). No one deserves it more and 2012 is shaping up to to be real big for him.

Since its Sunday and we are continuing with our slow down sessions, here is one of our favourites. Lapalux’s remix of Fink, Perfect Darkness track which was released in October. Lots more to come from him here on Ego Thieves, also check out Errol’s interview with him over at the Independent newspaper from a few months ago.

JC Adams – Behind The Ape

Xmas is only three weeks away… yes really! This year, most of the ET team are boycotting stupidly expensive presents and focusing more on quality (Limited Edition vinyl toys anyone?). So why not grab yourself a crew neck jumper from JC Adams.

And to emphasise the mark of good quality, here is a sneaky peak behind the scenes at the production of them. Grab yours now from JC Adams store.

Rizlab x Ghostpoet x The DOT – Trouble

I (Jenai) remember sitting on Skype, roughly this time last year, speaking to Ghostpoet on many occasions. Usually moaning about the state of Eastenders while sending hidden tracks to each other for inspiration…all while he penciled the vision for his album.

The other thing we also used to speak about was how scarse his bookings were, the politics and tribulations of record labels and stresses of him losing his job, moving homes and trying to stay focused.

Fast forward a year and im sure even Ghostpoet would agree, that our predictions have been blown out of the water. With shows around the globe, a handful of amazing videos and a critically acclaimed debut album ‘Peanut Butter Blues & Melancholy Jam’, oh and did I mention a Mercury Prize nomination? Things are shaping up nicely for him and deservedly so!

Here is a brand new banger from Ghostpoet in conjunction with Rizlab and Mike Skinners newly formed band, The DOT, entitled ‘Trouble’. Watch out for the one take, streamed video dropping soon.

Baby Sol vs Stinkahbell – Always

DZA – Zoo Keeper

Russia is known for many things. The best Vodka in the world, very cold weather and not so great home made cars lol. But one thing it should be known for is the very Russian beats of DZA.

Incorporating his unique blend of scattered loops and 8bit mechanics, he is a producer after our own hearts. His ‘Zoo Keeper’ EP released on Error Broadcast, does nothing but break expectations and is a must have. Above is our favourite from the EP, ‘Vanilla’. Buy here and enjoy the fact you could of almost missed this EP, but you didn’t.
