Product Overview
Teebs - Ardour (10Th Anniversary Edition) (Vinyl) On 11 October 2010, Brainfeeder released the debut album by a 23 year old ex-skater, painter and music producer from Chino Hills called Teebs (real name Mtendere Mandowa). The title ØArdourÙ means great enthusiasm, love or passion and was a fitting descriptor for his inherently warm, lushly textured beats. ItÙs an undisputed classic in the Brainfeeder canon and more widely considered an essential chapter in the ever-evolving puzzle of the global Øbeat sceneÙ. Brainfeeder and Teebs are celebrating the albumÙs 10th Anniversary with a special edition reissue of this landmark record. Pressed on Ødeep pinkÙ 2LP in artworked inners and housed in a beautiful gatefold sleeve with artwork by Teebs himself, the new edition features six previously unreleased bonus tracks. With roots at the My Hollow Drum collective, Dublab and Low End Theory, Teebs has been a staple in Los Angeles music. ÜMy creative family in LA is so important,Ý he explains. ÜItÙs a part of who I am when I step outside and how others in LA view me. I love the feeling of community and trying to understand how I can be useful in it.Ý Following ØArdourÙ, Teebs released ØCollectionsÙ (2011), ØEstaraÙ (2014) and, after a 5 year hiatus, his most recent album ØAniccaÙ in 2019, with the help of a host of musical friends including Panda Bear (Animal Collective), Sudan Archives, Ringgo Ancheta aka MNDSGN, Miguel AtwoodFerguson and Anna Wise. Universally acclaimed, Pitchfork gave ØAniccaÙ a glowing 7.8 review, hailing MandowaÙs Üeffortless, shape-shifting tracks that make time stand still.Ý Meanwhile, FADER described the record as Üdeeply atmospheric... cool-headed and uncanny.Ý TRACKLISTING 1.
