Geoff Barrow’s Production Supergroup ‘Quakers’ Are Back
Quakers are a hip-hop collective which orbit around the core of three producers: Fuzzface, 7-Stu-7 and Katalyst. Fuzzface is better known as Portishead’s Geoff Barrow. 7-Stu-7 is Portishead’s engineer and in-house producer at Invada Records in the UK and Katalyst is one of the most respected producers in Australia and a partner in Invada Records.
They return with a 50 track mixtape on Stones Throw. Katalyst tells the origin story of the beat tape: ‘They returned to the planet to find humans reaping ecological havoc. From their arsenal of secret weapons comes Heavy Tremors: a sonic assault to help bring the world back into balance. This siege of beats targets the few who systematically pillage the planet and its resources for their own benefit. Play it loud’.
