Shlohmo is Henry Laufer, co-founder of the infamous Wedidit collective (alongside Jonwayne, Groundislava, RL Grime, Juj, D33J and Melonius Drunk) and prolific producer of wonderfully dog-eared, gently swinging thump-click hip-hop beats. His follow up to “Shlomoshun” - debut album proper “Bad Vibes” is steeped in LA’s rich electronic heritage and the depth and warmth of his productions (blessed with his own guitar and vocals) bely his 21 years. Featuring in various ‘Best Of 2011’ lists it’s an incredible hypercoloured, dream album. Shlohmo’s bootleg Burial remix was the most downloaded track of 2011 on XLR8R. His new EP “Vacation” is out on Feb 7th on Friends of Friends.

Salva is the mastermind of the West Coast’s foremost freaky bass collective Frite Nite - a crew featuring the exceptional talents of B. Bravo, Eprom, DJG, NastyNasty and Epcot. 2011 saw the low end technician step up to the international stage and stand shoulder to shoulder
with his Frite Nite fam, dropping his debut longplayer - the synth-funk opus “Complex Housing” - and earning a spot at the Red Bull Music Academy in Madrid. Salva’s “Complex Housing” album and “Yellobone” EP also made it into a multitude of annual lists and his collaboration with EE fam B Bravo - “Obsession” was one of the standout funk club bangers of the year.

Earnest Endeavours is the label, party and creative collective rooted in London but with outernational links across the world. In 2011 we welcomed a host of guests to our London party such as AraabMuzik, Daedelus, Samiyam, Dorian Concept, Teebs, Starkey, Tokimonsta, Lazer Sword, Alex Nut, Fatima, Funkineven, B Bravo, Darkhouse Fam, Gaslamp Killer, Hudson Mohawke and more. Having recently launched our record label we’re proud to announce this series of shows for 2012.

For the underground music and arts community of Los Angeles (and a worldwide legion of supporters) DJ, producer and visual artist Kutmah is one of their most mercurial creatives, leading LA’s inimitable artistic renaissance. Starting his Sketchbook Sessions in 2004, the city’s first instrumental beats and art night paved the way for the likes of Low End Theory and Brainfeeder. Kutmah now resides in London and we’re proud to be working together to resurrect the Skethcbook session.

HIT + RUN, the world’s leader in live on-site event screenprinting, was created in 2005 by Southern California artists Brandy Flower and Mike Crivello. A product of the contagious enthusiasm they had seen at small silkscreening parties in their homes, HIT + RUN’s live screenprinting events quickly grew, and today the Crew can be found at everything from Coachella, to the Super Bowl, to Art Basel, SXSW and more. They’ll be present at all the shows this year, showcasing new artistic talent curated by the three crews involved.
