Disco, Dub and Hip Hop are the three foundations that make up the sound of Atlantic Conveyor. Ever since Steven Tripp and Tubbs dropped the Fantastic Incidents EP in 2004, there has been a grass roots swell of support for these London based producers. "Nasty Things" and "We Are" received support from D.J's as diverse as Gilles Peterson, Groove Armada and Zane Lowe.
Their latest production "Open Your Soul" is a natural evolution of Atlantic Conveyor's sound: Paradise Garage pianos are fused with bang-up-to-date beats to create a three mix EP that has received extraordinary club support from The Unabombers and Groove Armada as well as tastemakers Rob Da Bank, Chris Coco (The Blue Room) and Annie Mac.
Expect the plot to further unfold with a new single in the autumn and an album in the winter..
Production is all abit R Kelly - slow but sure! ;) Getting better.
