Recap: Robert Winter (Prod. By) – Release Event
No need for rap.
Around 2008, a generation of producers in Germany and all over Europe realized that their hip-hop beats could stand alone. Without any vocals but with a new-found confidence in instrumental music. Among those producers were now household names like Suff Daddy, Dexter, Brenk Sinatra, Twit One, Shuko, Hulk Hodn, Hubert Daviz, Bluestaeb, S. Fidelity, Flako, Flofilz and many more…
They went from beat tapes to full vinyl releases that attracted more and more attention and connected the local scene with a worldwide movement. Suddenly, those beatheads stepped out of the shadows and found themselves in the center of attention – on stage and with their faces on the record cover.
(Prod. by) is a photo book that captures the essence of this beatmaker decade by compiling its most iconic record covers, private snapshots and never-before-seen material from the vaults of photographer Robert Winter.
Last Friday we celebrated the launch of the book and the accompanying vinyl compilation at the HHV store, together with the artist and his friends. Guests enjoyed a photo exhibition, the opportunity of a meet & greet, free drinks and live sets by FloFilz, S.Fidelity, Suff Daddy, Robert Winter, V.Raeter and Kabuki.
Please enjoy these snapshots of this illustrious gathering and we strongly recommend listening to our latest journal.wav playlist, curated by V.Raeter, while doing so.
