Join 40 Winks on a road trip to anywhere. Bring your music player and tell your honey you won’t be home for dinner. It’s the trip, not the destination.“
About 40 Winks:
No hay banda! (“there is no band”, Mulholland Dr. 2001) pretty much sums up where 40 Winks aims to go with its instrumental hip hop: meticulously chop and paste samples together, to create an atmosphere of beats and vibes which steps beyond unimaginative loops. 40 Winks hit the scene in 2002, with a whole slew of laidback beats. Eager to share their sound with the world, they released a couple of albums independently. The attention they got from this, allowed them to build with people from around the world. One of these independently released albums, More Than Loops, got reissued in Japan on Swamp Records, after that the ball kept rolling. On their first worldwide release, Extended Pleasure on Escapism Records (2005), they reached listeners well beyond the (instrumental) hip hop community with the song “Melancholia”. After appearances on compilations, like Weapons Of Hope on Little-D (2006), they got a chance to do their thing on the renowned label, Merck Records with Sound Puzzle (2007). All this led them back to Europe, where the German based Project: Mooncircle welcomed them with a spot on the compilation Heart On The Right Spot (2007) and a full album The Lucid Effect (2008). In 2009 they took some time off, doing solo stuff and remixes. In 2011 40 Winks is back with a double LP called It’s The Trip (2011) on Project: Mooncircle.

Laut Pressetext solle man sich auf einen Trip ins Nirgendwo freuen und seiner Liebsten sagen, dass sie mit dem Essen nicht warten soll. Und tatsächlich beginnt der Trip, auf den man sich mit dem neuen Werk vom belgischen Produzentenduo 40 Winks begibt, schon mit dem ersten Track. Dank Snare-lastigem Loop marschiert man wortwörtlich los. Nachdem man nun schon einige Kilometer hinter sich hat und sich bei den ersten Tönen von »Outside The Box« in geruhsamer Sicherheit wiegt, kommen auch schon diese Schlagzeuge, die wie ein roter Faden jazzig durch das Album führen und rauben einem den Verstand – spätestens nach diesem Track befinden sich mehr als die Hälfte der Zuhörer bereits im Nirgendwo. Nun, da die Katze outside of the box ist, entlassen Padmo und Weedy mit The Day Breaks den Reisenden auf bekanntere, gewohntere Wege. Es jazzt weniger, dafür hipt und hopt es ziemlich – mit seidiger, Frauen-Stimme. Project: Mooncircle ist die perfekte Heimat für diese Musik. It’s the Trip ist tatsächlich ein Trip, ein Trip voll mit gediegenem, instrumentalem HipHop, einer ganzen Menge Jazz und viel viel Seele. Genau so wie man es von den beiden Belgiern gewohnt ist.
