The internationally renowned NYC beatmaker **Blockhead** will team up with the French beatmaker **ProleteR** and the Berlin-based producer **Arms and Sleepers** for a UK & European tour in Autumn 2026.
One of the modern masters of instrumental hip-hop, **Blockhead** will present an eclectic live set accompanied by visuals and spanning his prolific 25-year music career. Blockhead’s most recent solo album Mortality Is Lit! was released via Future Archive Recordings in November 2024, receiving critical acclaim.
French beatmaker **ProleteR** has established himself over the past decade as a leading figure in the international electro, nu-jazz, swing-hop and instrumental hip-hop scenes. Blending vintage jazz samples, boom-bap grooves and electro-soul textures, he has developed a warm, instantly recognisable sound that bridges nostalgia and modernity
Formed in 2006 in Boston and currently based in Berlin, **Arms and Sleepers** is the electronic trip-hop project of producer Mirza Ramic who has released glitched-out grooves that take as much inspiration from leftfield hip-hop experimentalism as they do from the slowburn ambience and panoramic euphoria of contemporary post-rock.
