| Sky'high - Let's Just Hip Hop | 06/03/2012 |
One of the most compelling artists emerging from the local hip-hop scene. Tough as nails; Raw and aggressive; her disarming smile hints there is much more than meets the eye.
True to the live fast die young mentality of her youth, ‘Let’s Just’ could be another empty song about cutting loose; but as usual with Sky’High, it goes high but cuts deeper.
| Joelistics - The Shining Hip Hop, Electronic | 06/03/2012 |
Growing up in Sydney, offspring of a Chinese-Australian father and an Anglo-Australian mother, playing drums in punk/funk groups, but drawn to hip-hop with its outspoken politics and adhoc sonic cannibalism.
The Shining picks up where Joelistics left off, forging ahead and pushing his sound further outside the realms of hip hop, into a land of pulsing electro and lush electronica.
| Horrorshow - Did You Hear? Hip Hop | 06/03/2012 |
Horrorshow have enjoyed an organic rise – they’re not anchored by a passing style or sub-cultural fad, consequently their fanbase is loyal and passionate, selling out shows all over Australia.
‘Did You Hear?’ sees MC Solo paying tribute to some of hip hop’s greats whilst making some irreverent and humorous observations on the local scene. The production sizzles and sparkles under the careful direction of Adit with a little help from a blazing horn section.
| Hermitude - Speak Of The Devil Electronic | 06/03/2012 |
Hermitude have developed a dedicated following for their pumping live shows employing synths, decks and samplers creating a monstrously positive vibe each gig.
With its contorting synth lines, hopelessly fun chorus and slamming drums, it perfectly captures the energy and joy of a Hermitude live show. It’s an ode to shaking off self-awareness; being dragged on the dancefloor and finding it’s exactly what you need.
