Various Artists - Here Comes Treble

To the uninitiated, Treble O is the digital label started by Domu (Co-Op resident, BBC 1Xtra presenter and general worldwide DJ extraordinaire) and Shift (Internet whiz and all round good guy) in the summer of 2006. The initial idea was to provide a digital output for Domu projects with his Bedfordshire musical family, such as Nicola Kramer, Soza (Sonar Circle) DJ Marin (Bakura) and Shift (Yotoko) with the desire to release a wide and varied selection of music that wasn´t confided to any specific format or genre. The ethos quickly applied to finding and supporting new artists that we felt needed more attention and the freedom to be able to do whatever it is they want to do!

After a very successful 7″release from Coventry Jazzer Ben Mi Duck, which gained a lot of attention from the worldwide Jazzaratti, the label was spurred on to put their money where their mouth is and to release a compilation of music from our newly found friends as well as from more established artists, but this time on CD.

Tracks by established artists like Nu-Era (Marc Mac, 4hero), Bass Clef (Blank Tapes), Lukid (Werks), Daedelus (Ninjatune) and Probe DMS (Spymusic) proudly sit next to songs by new artists like Soulparlour, Sub Ensemble and Chris Barker. Featuring Jazz, House, Dubstep, Hip Hop, Bruk and Electronica the compilation spans the genres, like a huge genre spanner. Now established label contributors Dorian Concept and Ben Mi Duck offer high quality tracks that have been receiving radio and club support from Gilles Peterson, Benji B, Patrick Forge, Jazzanova and many other A-List DJ´s worldwide.

Taking risks is what we are all about, and we feel this compilation reflects all that is new and interesting in soulful experimental dance music today.

Reviews:

When Domu asked me to do a track for the album he used those magic words “you can do anything you want” and that’s how ‘Robot Moves’ came to life. You can clearly hear across the album that everyone involved had the same instructions and the result is a solid compilation of great diverse self indulgence. And that’s not a bad thing…
Marc Mac (4 Hero)

Classy, vibey, twisted, colourful and very cool, all topped off with a little humour! You can´t go wrong with this compilation!!
Atjazz (Mantis)

A truly hard hitting comp full of sucker punches and KO´s packed with an arsenal of sharpshooters led by General Domu. Sounds so nice had to play it thrice!
Afronaut (Bugz In The Attic)

It represents brilliantly everything going on in the house, soul and jazz scenes at the moment.
Aaron Jerome (BBE/If Music)

A fantastic sound clash of genre-bending underground music! Simply needs to be heard!
Mark De Clive Lowe (Antipodean)
