A jazz musician turned DJ and producer Mathew Chicoine aka Recloose was working in a downtown Detroit sandwich shop when he made contact with techno pioneer Carl Craig by way of a now legendary ‘demo on rye’ sandwich. Since that fateful day, Recloose has rapidly increased his profile with numerous groundbreaking 12”s, his debut album ‘Cardiology’ and remixes for the likes of Herbert, MJ Cole and Clara Hill.
Now residing in the fertile pastures of New Zealand, he is putting the finishing touches to his new album ‘Hiatus On The Horizon’ out soon on Peacefrog and will now come to Sydney on April 16 for an intimate session of techno jazz, deep house, broken beats and motor city soul at The Basement.
Opening for Recloose are D’s on the Two. A swingin’ Sydney three piece they combine top notch jazz chops with a deep and organic dancefloor aesthetic in the spirit of Moodyman or Theo Parrish with Scott Saunders on keys, Michael ‘Touch Sensitive’ Di Francesco on bass and DJ Mako flipping beats.
Joining them are residents Nathan McLay and Somatik with Simon Caldwell, Lippo and Trevor ‘El Chino’ Parkee and laying it down across two rooms. Catch another instalment from the people who brought you Rainer Trüby, Dublex Inc and The Quantic Soul Orchestra! Tickets are $28 + BF with doors open at 10:00pm.
