b.1980 Tewz is a Chicago based beat maker & visual artist (recently featured on Bravo TV’s Work of Art). Armed with dusty fingers, circuit bent drum computers, distorted kalimbas, wonky tape reels, vintage organs, fuzzy guitars, & low frequency oscillation; Tewz makes beats for space ships, planets, and intermagnetic loop travelers. We asked him to talk about his current project “Helix”, he replied simply “Boom Bap Blip”. You can expect a lot of crackily samples, lo-fi drums, tape hiss, and a gang of weed smoke. Helix (A reference to the Helix Nebula located in the constellation Aquarius.) It is currently being manufactured by the fine folks over at Pirates Press. DON’T SLEEP.

Helix is limited to 1,000 worldwide.

True story: Gossip Wolf was once a force in instrumental hip-hop with the group FUNKLE. After years of getting our tails dusty doing serious crate digging, we got signed to Mo’ Wax on the strength of our mix tape, “Can I Give You a Dollar?” But that went over like a hot five-pound wolf turd. Anyway, we’re hoping the same thing doesn’t happen to Tewz 1. Last week the Chicagoan released his first proper album, Exsoteric, straight to iTunes. It’s about time! Dude has been banging around the local hip-hop scene, making beats and dropping verses, for almost 20 years. Exsoteric leans on the kind of David Axelrod/crate-freak soundtrack jams that DJ Shadow and RJD2 have used to melt headz worldwide. Tewz tells us that he’ll have vinyl and CD copies at local retailers soon.
