Breaks Co-Op

Breaks Co-Op started in 1997 when New Zealander hip-hop aficionados and studio talents [b]Zane Lowe[/b] and [b]Hamish Clark[/b] produced their critically acclaimed first album, [i]Roofers[/i]. There was a long hiatus in their output whilst Zane went to the UK and worked in the media industry and Hamish travelled. They returned to working together with a new outlook, focusing less on samples and hip hop beats and more on live instrumentation and songs. They were joined by Englishman producer and vocalist, [b]Andy Lovegrove[/b], and released their long-awaited second album, [i]The Sound Inside[/i] in 2004 and embarked on a recording deal with Parlophone in the UK.
