Record Label Profle: Local Talk
12.04.12
Stockholm’s Local Talk label came to our attention a couple of months back after reviewing Wil Maddams latest release Cut and Cap. The collaboration by Mad Mats, a former break-dancing champion and founder of Sweden’s seminal home of electronic music Raw Fusion, and Tooli, whose highly acclaimed 24:hrs blog and parties made him a regular name on the Stockhlm nightlife circuit, was spawned out of their deep-rooted love for all things ‘house’.
