The Organ Grinder - Catapult 002





What started as a one off for record shop day has turned into a living breathing record label as Catapult002 reaches record shops across Europe. The idea of introducing a store record label has been a blessing as we’ve been introduced to some seriously creative people in Cardiff with hard drives full of some of the finest music we’ve heard; it’s been a real treat for our ears. Our second release comes from the no longer mysterious Organ Grinder AKA Chico. If you’re local you’ll no doubt know this man as a fine MC and host and as one half of Didz and Chico who dropped the wonderful Something New on Ten Thousand Yen last year. I can’t say how excited we are to be putting out the first solo release for a producer who is no doubt going to climb to high heights. Every Dj we’ve passed this track to has given it a five star rating – including Jackmaster, Donga and Hackman.


Obsession and New Age People are two classy modern garage hits that have a back in the day vintage feel, think Tuff Jam's garage classic "Experience", think US Garage at its peak, think iceberg chinos and mochino shirts, think everyone having a good time in clubs. Both tracks are swingers aimed directly at the dance floor full of soulful vocal snippets, catchy melodies, shuffling rhythm patterns, warm vintage keys and plenty of deep bass. This really is an incredible record, all we can say is wait till you see what else is to come from The Organ Grinder.
