The Politik pic

We mention on air about the new album ‘The Politik’ by the duo of Mark De Clive Lowe and singer Bembe Segue. Mark De Clive Lowe is origianlly from New Zeland (same as the amazing Fat Freddy’s Drop). He has been making musc for a while now and is one of the important artists in the broken beat scene along with Bugz in the Attic. On the other hand, Bembe Segue is probably one of the most original and freshest sounding vocalist around. She has worked with artists such as Bugz in the Attic, and Kyoto Jazz Massive.

From Now Toronto Magazine:

Make way for Bembe Segue! Already a certified celebrity on the UK broken beat scene, the soulful scorcher’s frequent “guest vocalist” credit has become the mark of quality for joints by everyone from Japanese dance-floor jazz crews Sleepwalker and Kyoto Jazz Massive to leading British club culture innovators IG Culture, 4hero’s Dego and Mark de Clive-Lowe.

Check out the mini mix tape from The Politik.
