Doctor Velvet
New Breed (blue)
Amsterdam-based band Doctor Velvet presents their first full-length album: 'New Breed.' Band leaders and high school buddies David Grutter and Jerome de Vijlder have gathered a group of talented musicians like Alex Figueira (Conjunta Papa Upa) and Sam Ghezzi (The Hi-Stakes, The Roaring Cats) to create a hypnotic listening experience. The band has managed to create a fresh take on the rhythm'n'blues genre by bringing elements of (Latin) soul and '50s rock'n'roll together with a '60s vintage sound and feeling. The album is just as dark, brooding and moody as it is danceable. This makes Doctor Velvet stand out from the crowd whilst taking you on an all-night ride through swamps, hazy nightclubs and cursed roads filled with heartbreak. Limited to 300 copies on "blue moon caravan" vinyl.
