Sifu - O.S.T., Howie Lee, LP

Sloclap and Laced Records are bringing the palpitating beats of Sifu to vinyl with this deluxe double LP. 30 tracks from the kung fu brawler have been specially remastered for the format, to be pressed to heavyweight discs in red and black. Sleeve artwork is by the Sloclap team, with art direction by Paul-Emile Boucher and illustration by Servane Altermatt and Chen-Yang Hsu. Howie Lee is a consummate creative, a visual artist and experimental club music producer-DJ unafraid to fuse traditional Chinese instrumental palettes with sampled and synthesised electronic elements. Sifu's brutal musical blend helps keep players on the razor's edge - truly the result of mastery through practice. Gongs, gamelan, bamboo flute and big Chinese percussion sets interlace with the sounds of dub, techno and drum and bass in a soundtrack that bristles with tension and revenge.
