If you don’t know kowtow, they’re a Wellington-based clothing label who do some very, very sweet t-shirt prints.
They also put out these CD compilations - 3 of them so far - buy a shirt, get the CD for free. It’s all tasty NZ stuff in a dubby-trip hoppy-electro vein from artists like Olmecha Supreme, Opensouls, [...]
