Mellow and progressive, electronic jazz.

Mark's critically acclaimed new album!

"... latin, breakbeat, house, drum'n'bass, hip-hop, jazz

... all in the blender", Mark describes his new album.

Six Degrees is an eclectic journey through dance culture and jazz blended with diverse grooves and infectious keyboards.

Based in both London and Auckland, over the past year Mark has collaborated with some of the leading DJ/producers around the globe: Francois K, Joe Clausell,
Phil Asher, Dave Angel, Matrix, Sci-Clone (A-Sides and Nathan Haines) and many others have utilized de Clive-Lowe's keyboard skills on their recording projects.

Written, performed, programmed and produced by Mark, the album features tracks co-produced by Joost Langeveld (TriggerX), Sub Mariner (Che Fu's album) and turntable stylist Manuel Bundy. Guest vocalists featured are King Kapisi, Teremoana Rapley and newcomer Cherie Mathieson.

"July Lava magazine cover star, Cause celebre champion and globe trotting Cuban beat merchant De Clive-Lowe attempts six degrees separation and further bolsters the Kog Transmissions repertoire. Guests include DJ Manuel Bandy (of course!) vocalists Teremoana Rapley and King Kapisi making this a damn slick release indeed.

The mellow end of the dance market and the progressive end of the jazz scene, it's pure pleasure from top to tail. The fact that there's no 'live' tracks should ensure you get out to see the crew play. Luckily enough you'll be able to do just that next weekend - check the back page of this here 'zine for more details. I bet you'll bump into someone you know....."
