LA-based collective and online retailer Gene’s Liquor has launched its own imprint with a 12″ from Laurent (a.k.a. IVVVO). As reported by Resident Advisor, Gene’s Liquor has been in operation since late last year, with its website stocking material from Delroy Edwards’ L.A. Club Resource, Anthony Naples’ Proibito, Dancemania, and a selection of dancehall, rap, and hardcore. This inaugural effort from Laurent—a Portugese producer whose output as IVVVO has appeared on Opal Tapes and Public Information—reportedly “speaks to the rawness and attitude of the early days of house, techno, and rap music,” and is available starting today via Gene’s Liquor and Rush Hour. The lead cut from Laurent’s Untitled EP can be heard in full here, and its tracklist is on view below.
