Catalog #:
WARP 089CD
"Req comes to us from Brighton where he attended the Skint Skool, releasing two previous albums (
One
and
Frequency Jams
) of some completely spaced out wall of old skool beats with brushes of techno/electro scribbles. Many of you may notice that he's got a different accent, well that's because Brighton is in England, far away across the Atlantic Ocean. But kids, I'm sure you'll be able to get along with Req just fine, as his parents tell me that he's well schooled in early American hip hop culture (pre-'King of Rock') with a specialty in graffiti art and disc jockeying."

Catalog #:
WARP 108CD
"Old school aerosol artist, graffiti master, experimental hip hop visionary, Req has been tagged by others almost as many times as he's tagged himself. Attempts to pigeonhole either his art or his music, however, are consistently confounded by his innate ability to go off at a tangent. Even as a fledgling graffiti artist he was considered rather avant garde by his peers and this independent attitude is equally evident in his music. Reqs latest album is
Car Paint Scheme
, a collection of outstanding warm, dubby Req gems. After releasing two albums for Skint,
One
(1997) and
Frequency Jams
(1998)
Car Paint Scheme
is Req's second album for Warp, following
Sketchbook
in 2002."
