UK IMPORT VINYL

Originally released in 2000, Mark de Clive-Lowe‘s Six Degrees captures the early essence of what would later be known as broken beat, club-jazz and future soul; bridging the sounds of ’70s jazz-fusion, jungle, hip-hop, house and Afro-Cuban rhythms. With Fender Rhodes, synths and an MPC2000 at the core of his production, de Clive-Lowe blended live musicianship with beat-driven sensibilities in a way that was ahead of its time. Originally released in New Zealand via Kog Transmissions, the album found its way onto the global stage when Universal Jazz UK picked it up. Now, 25 years later, Be With presents a special anniversary vinyl reissue, celebrating a landmark album that laid the foundation for an international career spanning continents, collaborations, and countless musical evolutions. Limited to just 400 copies for the world.

Mastering for this 25-year vinyl edition was overseen by Be With regularSimon Francisand it was cut by the esteemedCicely Balstonat Abbey Road Studios to be pressed in the Netherlands by Record Industry. The original artwork has been lovingly brought back to life by de Clive-Lowe himself, with updated liner notes written specially for this landmark reissue.
