Back to prepping 🍩🍩s for @friendlyrecords #nye @thespottedcowbristol
This event is SOLD OUT but there will be a handful of tickets made available on the door @ 8PM if you would like to chance it 🤞🏻🔥❤️🍩

It’s exactly one year today since my last DJ gig as Boca 45 in Brooklyn NYC 🇺🇸
Honestly it’s been odd adjusting after so many years of hopping around record rubbing with my 🍩🍩s but on the whole I think that the time was right to hang my headphones up as B45.
I’ll still do the odd gig thing when the time is right like the @friendlyrecords festival which we did in aid of @warchilduk under my #claudecooper alias but for the moment I’m at peace with my decision living with the fond memories of DJing for you lovely peeps around the globe 🌍
BIG ❤️ from Boogie Down Bristol x

Howdy Folks !
It’s been a while..
I hope that 2025 has been a good one so far?
Time Flies doesn’t it??

It’s been over half a year since my Boca 45 DJ retirement which was an emotional rollercoaster to say the least, but I’ve been kept busy working and co running Friendly Records in Bristol UK.

A couple of years back I disclosed to you here & via social media that I was behind the Claude Cooper project when we dropped “More Myriad Sounds” FT Brain Fog (Baby Bam from the Jungle Brothers @bam_jungle
Since then I’ve been immersed in writing beats for this brand new 22 track LP offering entitled ‘Friendly Sounds Vol 1’
It’s the true sound of our Friendly little record shop in BS3 @friendlyrecords
Part sampledelictrip, part romping beat tape, part party.
The album was inspired by the vinyl discoveries I’ve made from digging and cataloguing our bulging vinyl inventory which resulted in-

Claude Cooper

Friendly Sounds Vol 1’

*Limited Edition One Off Pressings
*Marble Blue or Marble White Wax (or both !!)
*Includes an inner sheet with linear notes written by Maggot Man aka jason from @sleaford_mods plus a C.C. illustration by @petefowler
Free Friendly Records Sticker

Thanks for taking the time to read this & I hope that you enjoy my beat endeavours over the past year.

BIG Love from Boogie Down Bristol,
Claude Cooper / Boca 45 🤍💙
