New from Tape Lab & Brillman
After a rather long winter break Tape Lab & Brillman are back on track!
The creative juices from New York and “outside Oslo” are once again flowing:) The process of choosing between many different songs/jams/tracks/ideas can be a slow, laborious task but someone’s gotta do it! Through weeks/even months of trial & error serendipity (once again) saved the day. A guitar take by Brillman from 2008 was forged with that fine Tape Lab release called “Hyper Cerebral” to make a happy jazz-house mix (128 bpm) that is 12:45 minutes long:) Nuff said; enjoy!

Unreleased Dub Plates from Tape Lab
Lets get ready for some Dubplates. From what I understand, which is little, a dubplate is an unreleased song that is used for DJs to play before an official release. In that sense, these EPs are somewhat influenced.
