Recloose and friends

In the spring of 1997, Matt Chicoine, aka Recloose, made first contact with techno pioneer and Planet E label head Carl Craig by way of a carefully placed sandwich containing Recloose's demo tape. Craig bit. Since this fateful meeting, Recloose has grown into one of Detroit's hottest young producers. Recloose's illustrates a variety of approaches, techniques, and influences, everything from Detroit techno and house, to dub reggae, jazz, hip hop, and soul/funk. These groundbreaking releases have firmly cemented Recloose into the next wave of the Detroit musical tradition. Matt has recently complted his awaited debut LP for Planet E (early 2002) and will be resident in Wellington for at least the next 6 months and playing on Saturday nights at The Matterhorn, 106 Cuba Mall alongside local DJs and musicians.
