With the release of his Afterglo mix CD way back in 2010, a pleasant surprise hidden among Chemical Records orders, Phaeleh burst onto the electronic music scene with his own brand of melodic, relaxing Dubstep. An antidote to the mid range screeches that had begun to take over the 140 tempo, it was just what [...]
Eatgood lyricist Sonnyjim’s been on point recently as ever and this follow up track to his 2011 Purple Patch EP is no exception. An homage to when MC’s just used to go in with hard, non stop bars over crunching beats, the original EP (which you can check on Bandcamp here) saw Sonnyjim lacing four [...]
After some incredible live shows on the festival circuit last summer, a couple of leaked tunes that have been popping up over recent months as free downloads and a well deserved ‘Best Newcomer’ award in Wordplay Magazine’s Best of 2012, it’s safe to say that the Uk Hip Hop scene as a whole has been [...]
As hard as the Don Cannon/Kanye produced beat for Pusha T’s Numbers on the Board, I didn’t personally feel like he really did it justice, so it’s hardly a surprise that a few other MC’s have tried their hand at flipping it. Enter Stones Throw wordsmith Jon Wayne, reworking it into a underground monster with [...]
After the Sloshpot EP alongside Mr Boss earlier this year (check our review here), it was only a matter of time before Uk Hip Hop’s favourite loudmouth Dirty Dike was back, this time with his third solo album. What I was unsure of however, was which way the album would go in. Sloshpot showcased both [...]
It’s been a while since we unloaded some fresh mixes on you, but there’s always plenty of drum and bass being blended, cut, double drop and twisted around to the aid of oral pleasure by skilled hands behind mixers. Here’s some of our favourite d&b mixes to hit the internet recently. Enjoy… Clarity x Fabriclive [...]
You may know of beatmaker Charlie Mac through his involvement in Ramson Badbonez & Twizzy’s recent album The Good, The Bad & The Ugly (check our review here) and his link to the Abnoxshuz Entertainment label, but whether you do or not, his new instrumental album is definitely worth a listen. Whether you’re an MC [...]
There’s plenty of new hip hop to get our teeth stuck into this week, from cyphers to tracks, US to UK, so without further ado… Here’s the latest greatest hip hop on the tube. M9 & Tesla’s Ghost Cypher Anything M9 has anything to do with is straight up ill, but when you add Tesla’s [...]
I’ve always loved the style of street art collective The London Police (and am even more fond of the fact that they trump the real London Police Force in Google searches). It’s bold, fun and intrinsically linked to the Hip Hop culture we all know and love through thick black lines and shell toe sneakers. [...]
Kista, a Scarborough based producer and connoisseur of that classic sound, has been bubbling under the surface in Hip Hop and repping hard for the underground for a while now, having made a bit of a name through his Organic Pulsation in 1998 and going on to collaborate with overseas MC’s such as Jan Whitfield [...]
