Back in August, DJ Shadow launched his own record label, Liquid Amber. Out this week is the first release on that label by an artist other than Shadow himself, hip hop producer Bleep Bloop with an EP titled ’10 Watt Lazers’.

Speaking to CMU, DJ Shadow explained his motivation for setting up the label: “I founded the label to offer exposure to emerging artists that I admire. In the process of building DJ sets, and searching for music to play on the net, I stumble across incredible music on a regular basis. It’s nice to be able to extend a hand and forge relationships on that basis, as I did with Bleep Bloop”.

“It was serendipitous”, he said of his first meeting with Bleep Bloop, real name Aaron Triggs. “I played one of his songs, came off stage, and there he was, saying ‘Hey, you just played my music!'”

Still buzzing from that moment, Triggs, told us: “Having DJ Shadow release this EP is pretty much the biggest confidence boost in my music career that I have ever gotten”.

The three track EP is out now digitally, with a limited edition seven-inch release available to pre-order through Bandcamp. Check out two tracks from the record, ‘Denial’ and title track ’10 Watt Lazers’, here:
