‘The Trip’ is Dexter’s long-awaited follow-up to his seminal “Jazz Files“ album.
The German is known for producing gold and platinum albums for German rappers Casper and Cro, and he is also a member of the German beats collective, The Hi-Hat Club . ‘The Trip’ is all about free love, LSD, hash, fuzz guitars, tablas and revolution and at the same time probably one of the most free-thinking hip-hop albums of 2013. Dexter’s music has been in its own cloud for a while now, but on first listen none of his previous records have been as far-out as ‘The Trip‘. With a concept similar as the ‘The Jazz Files’, Dexter is telling a story that has been triggered by his vinyl diggin’ habits: ‘I like nearly every music from the late 60-ties‘, he says, ‘My whole musical spectrum has been shaped by this era. It was a time when everything was in progress – art, film, music, society. And I wanted to bring this vibe across on this album’.
The first single from ‘The Trip’ will be ‘Pictures’ and features Berlin singer Josa Peit on vocals.
