All posts for the month October, 2012
Another group that we featured a few days ago (proof that we really do follow the artists we like) , Stereo Boyz released a video ‘Raybanz’ a few months ago from their fourth coming album ‘Carz, Clubz & Theaterz’, which will be released in 2013.
For fans of Ugly Duckling, Dilated Peoples and a few nice snare drums.
We’re big fans out The Locksmiths, so I really can’t say anything about positive about this cheeky freestyle in honour of Black History Month, from The Locksmiths’ Zushi. Solid and clever lyrics. Feast your eyes and ears.
Check the free download of their EP, The Story Of The Unknown.

We recently featured these NYC natives, Triple Double a few days ago. We were impressed with their funky, jazz influenced hip-hop then, and we’re still impressed now. Check their new video nicely titled ‘Triple Double’ and have a look and a listen for yourself.
For fans of Pacewon, Apathy, and early Atmosphere.
So two weeks ago, we posted our first podcast. The response was pretty good and you can listen to it on our/Stix’s Soundcloud so we’ve decided to make it into a permanent bi-weekly thing. The premise of the podcast was to bring people music they might not be aware of, and some classics, and have a little chat about the current state of hip-hop. Last week we played a bunch of new underground jams by UK and U.S artists, and a few classics. A few of the people we included were RZA, Datkid (Split Prophets), Book Thieves, Three Headed Beast, A Tribe Called Quest, Too Many Ts, Jae Apollo, Doomtree and a load more.
This weekend will follow that same narrative of our previous podcast, the next two that follows it will however have interviews from London based MC The Ruby Kid, and UK Promotor/Producer Tricksta from Park Street PR and UK Runnings.
This is something we want to expand upon and get more cats involved with, which is why if you have any artists or tracks you think we need to be exposed to then get in touch with us via our Facebook page, Twitter or email.
We’ll be recording it Saturday night so you can message us up until 9pm UK time.

‘Triple Filtered’ is the debut album from Spitfire. Having released his debut EP earlier this year along with the single Slow Dance With Satan and accompanying video to critical acclaim. The emcee from Portsmouth, UK is back with 18 tracks of solid hip hop to cement his place in the UK scene.
‘Triple Filtered’ like the Spitfire EP, is a myriad of flows, wit and realness with Spitfire bringing something different to each and every track, along with an array of featured artists. Including verses from Wordsmiff, Baron Samedi, Bil Next and more bring an extra dimension to the long player, providing compliments and contrasts to Spitfire’s unique style.
Produced in it’s entirety by Towa, ‘Triple Filtered’ features a range of beats from brooding slow burners like What Year Is It? and Dr. Graham, to more upbeat cuts like Slow Dance With Satan Part 2 and The Hard Way Out. Spitfire puts his own spin on every beat, bringing a vast amount of content – switching from funny, to dark, to personal and back again seamlessly.
Running to an hour long, this LP showcases Spitfire ability, variety and, most of all, heart and takes you on a ride through the psyches of both him and producer Towa.
Available to download for just £5, here are a sample of tracks to stream from the release, and go to Spitfire’s Bandcamp page for Physical copies and Packages with T-Shirts available
The album is released with an accompanying single, ‘No Saving Me’, shot by Toby Cuthbertson
