The Far East

Brooklyn's THE FAR EAST appeared in 2013 with their single "Youthman" immediately propelling them into vinyl rotation amongst well known selectors like BBC's David Rodigan. The Far East pull inspiration from foundation rhythm and a youth spent in Punk Rock; bringing new, heavy magic to an old sound. Disillusioned with modern life and digital noise, The Far East immerse themselves completely in the often forgotten beauty of Rocksteady, Roots, and classic Dancehall. In 2013, The Far East formed label Tea Factory Sounds to host their first single, "Youthman", produced by Brett Tubin of Channel Tubes productions.
