Tonight: Hermitude at The Shelter

2008_10_hermitude01.jpgBarely two weeks after their successful first event, FREE the WAX will bring in multi-instrumentalist hip hop duo, Hermitude (Elefant Traks) tonight from down under for a show at The Shelter.

Sydney-based Luke Dubs and Elgusto have been playing in bands together since their early teens and have garnered a strong following over the last few years playing alongside progressive acts such as DJ Krush, Kid Koala and DJ Kentaro.

Using turntables and keyboards, their music is known to take on "instrumental hip hop's smooth influences, flips and cooks them up into sets of riding electro vibes, funk beats and stomp-your-feet drum n bass".

In the meantime, have a listen to their music over at myspace.com and last.fm to decide for yourself.

The Shelter, 5 Yongfu Lu (near Fuxing Xi Lu) 永福路5号 (近复兴西路)
Starts 10pm, RMB 30 cover
