Mr. Williamz & Maffi - Dancehall Hobby EP (JAHTARI)

Written By 1 - November 08 2012

Available Here

Deadly disc charged with raw sound system vibes by the man called Mr. Williamz on a bunch of heavyweight Maffi riddims, coming straight from the Copenhagen underground. With scorchers like "Sit Down Steady", the must-have "Where The Man Come From" and the anthem "Dancehall Hobby" it becomes clear very quickly that this man's favourite hobby ain't stamp collecting...

To give it a nice sound-system-tape feel the tunes have been faithfully run to cassette and back, Tapes dubbed up the Kriminel Riddim live, the bassline in the Hobby Riddim is by Pupajim and disrupt rolled it all up into a big one in the end.

Like the "Tann Up Solid EP" this one also comes with a masterpiece of a cover from Ellen G. / MyLord - a genius tribute to the veterans of sound system culture! Boomshot record - not to be missed!

Heavy hip-hop and bass deepness by hot new not new producer, DJ, beatsmith and drummer Truenoys. 'New' as in 'new', 'not new' as in 'he's been around the block a few times in previous lives, his tunes getting played by everyone from the Wax On posse to Osunlade and Laurent Garnier, just to name a few.

For his first release "We Been Waitin'", our boy got together with buddies Declaime (a.k.a. Dudley Perkins), P.U.D.G.E., and DJ Grazzhoppa, while on bonus track "Stand Up" the almighty Simbad plays strings and pads. Including remixes by Behling & Simpson, Dave Brody and Grazzhoppa!

DJ Numark - Our Generation / The Fever 10" (FIVE DAY WEEKEND)

Written By 1 - November 06 2012

Available Here

Side A 1. Our Generation (Re-Edit) Featuring Ernie Hines (Main) 2. Our Generation (Instrumental) 3. Our Generation (Drumapella) Side B 1. The Fever Featuring A-Skillz 2. Our Generation (Acapella) ON TRANSLUCENT ORANGE COLORED VINYL As a member of the critically acclaimed, gold-selling Hip-Hop outfit, Jurassic 5, DJ Nu-Mark graced the group with precision scratching and cutting-edge production. Best known for spearheading the raw anthem “What’s Golden” such creativity only hinted at the visionary songs and styles Nu-Mark has explored since Jurassic 5’s breakup in 2006. Nu-Mark introduced himself as a solo artist in 2004 with Blend Crafters, an instrumental album created in the spirit of allowing beats to speak for themselves and Hands On, a mix cd that featured Mc’s rhyming in different languages from around the world. Today Nu-Mark experiments with children’s music toys and constructs full DJ sets around toys most people dispose of by the time their kids are old enough to read. He has toured the world, remixed songs for Nas and Damian Marley, created songs for Saturday Night Live’s Lonely Island and constructed the Tropical Funk Mix “Take Me With You,” a breathtaking blend of Latin, Afro-Beat and Balkan Beat. Most significantly, after more than three years of brainstorming, experimenting and collaborating, he has finished his debut solo album Broken Sunlight, which reveals his influences and innovations into a jaw dropping collection of heart felt music. “A lot of things in my life were broken, my group broke up, my long term relationship broke up, the music industry and economy seemed to be broken so It was time for me to take a break” Nu-Mark explains. “And that’s where the title of the record stems from. It’s not so much I’m broken. I’m moving towards the sunlight these days. It’s more like a tale of perseverance and forging ahead through difficult times.” Broken Sunlight also mirrors the marketing behind the album. Instead of releasing all of the songs at once, Nu-Mark plans to post two songs per month for seven months. “At the end of the cycle, I’m going to release the full album with instrumentals, acappelas, and a documentary style DVD of collaborations in the studio and on the road.”
