James Lavelle co-founded the revered left-field hip-hop label Mo’Wax, the U.K. home of DJ Shadow’s groundbreaking Endtroducing…., along with several other notable releases. Since the early ’90s, Lavelle has led the long-running UNKLE, a collaborative project that has grown increasingly eclectic with each remix (including commissions from Radiohead, Massive Attack, and Robert Plant), studio album (beginning with 1998’s Psyence Fiction), and film project (such as 2005’s Odyssey in Rome). Although the London native was still a teenager when he and partner Tim Goldsworthy started Mo Wax, Lavelle was honing his DJ skills earlier than that, and remained in-demand on local and global scales through the mid 2010s. Lavelle has put together several commercially released DJ sets, including the first volume of FabricLive (2001) and several installments for Global Underground (2002-2015).
James is not just well known in the music scene as the Mo’Wax & UNKLE brand has a somewhat legendary status in the streetwear culture as the label have collaborated with famous artist FUTURA on many instances from album art, to paintings, and even a book.
James Lavelle of Unklesounds will be spinning live at COMO (TREC KL). Pop by from 9pm onwards and witness some of the most authentic UNKLE / Futura artworks, toy collectibles, and vinyls on display.
EDIT: Due to unforeseen circumstances, James can not make it tonight, and the event will be postponed to tomorrow (29th April 2017).
