Clutchy Hopkins - Verbal Headlock
From the new Clutchy Hopkins album "The Story Teller" on Ubiquity Records. This track already awarded among the year's best on Gilles Peterson's Worldwide show on BBC Radio 1. Directed by: Christian Borstlap, he is an amsterdam based art director and sometimes film director, edited by Jorrit Spoelstra.
It’s the most varied Hopkins album to date encompassing lots of vocal textures, and a dash of worldly vibes. Check the Brazilian-psyche-like “No Contact…Contact,” and the mad spooky science of “Miles Chillin,” or the shuffling “Thinkin’ of Eva” which would sound perfectly at home playing in a Parisian café. It’s an album influenced by Hopkins time in jail, where, while in the courtyard, he met many international prisoners waiting to be deported. Lo-fi, acoustic, finger- snapping, hand-clapping, whistle-and-hummed jam sessions gave Hopkins the ideas which he later put to tape. The album booklet will include the entire story, unfiltered.
