Popis - FILTERS:
Kanpai Records Announces the Release of Filters, the New Album by Peter 'Peas' McEvilley Peas 'Filters' is currently #3 on the iTunes electronica chart! , after being available for only three days! Los Angeles, CA - Release to coincide with Earthdance/United Beats of Peace Tour. Peter 'Peas' McEvilley's new release 'Filters', on Kanpai Records, is a sonic adventure ranging from downtempo to breakbeat. Each track contains a sample from legendary Japanese world music pioneer, Kitaro, which Peas seamlessly weaves into his original beats and melodies. Peas will be promoting Filters as a featured artist on this summer’s national “United Beats of Peace Tour.” McEvilley, who has produced and written songs for Hollywood Records, Miramax, ABC and many others, started work on this latest album last year after co-scoring a Japanese anime, “Ninja Scroll,” with Kitaro. Recognizing that Kitaro is one of the pioneers of electronic chill out music, McEvilley decided to produce a full-length CD that would incorporate samples from Kitaro’s music into new, beat heavy, electronica tracks. This summer, coinciding with the CD’s release, Peas will be performing alongside BT, Particle, and Dan the Automator, on the national United Beats of Peace Tour, where Kitaro will be the recipient of the first annual 'Artist of Peace Award.' Peas started DJing in the mid-nineties at some of South Beach’s hottest clubs including: Chaos’ millennium party, Nikki Beach Club, Pearl, Rumi, Touch, and Automatic Slim’s. He also toured as a drummer for several years with the reggae band, Inna Sense. While on the United Beats of Peace Tour, which spans from Aug. 19 to Sept. 19 through 18 cities, McEvilley will integrate live drums and keyboard into his DJ performance. Established in 1994, Los Angeles-based Domo Music Group, is guided by founder Eiichi Naito's mission, 'To provide a home for both the creators and aficionados of quality music beyond the borders of categorization.” Staying true to this mission, this month Domo is launching its new imprint, Kanpai Records. This new label will focus on electronic and indie rock hybrids - plus everything in between. 'We want to put out music that encompasses the best of all worlds… nothing too genre specific, but rather the gray space in between,' says Michelle Ogata, Kanpai's Marketing Director. Kanpai’s first three albums are due for release in Fall 2004 and include Unconscious Ruckus by Appogee, Filters by Peas and Reinterpretations by various artists, including Timmy the Terror (Ima Robot) and Turbotito (Junior Senior).www.kanpairecords.com
