19 03 2012

Phazed Out is the new compilation/remix album from international producer extraordinaire M-Phazes, strung together by the legendary DJ Rhettmatic of the World Famous Beat Junkies. Phazed Out features a monster collection of stella tracks taken from the Coalmine Records back catalogue.

The album features appearances from such artists as Heltah Skeltah, Saigon, Inspectah Deck, CL Smooth, Emilio Rojas, Skyzoo, Sadat X, El Da Sensei, Termanology, Bekay, DJ Babu, Torae, Brown Bag AllStars, Chubb Rock, DJ Revolution, Mela Machinko, Krondon, Phil The Agony, Mista Sinista, J-Live and more.

Phazed Out is a perfectly paced album that flows from the first track right on through to the final drum beat. The feel of the album from the onset is complete and cohesive in both style and production. The album opens with the banging single ‘The Raw feat. Saigon, Inspectah Deck & Bekay, M-Phazes use of soulful melodies, coupled with loose, banging drums shines through from the moment you press play. All Out feat. Big Noyd, Phil The Agony & Krondon, followed by Undergroud Railroad feat. Damoso, Termanology, Shabaam Sahdeeq, Phantasm, Chubb Rock & Sadat X continues in the same vein with impressive fashion. Phazes constructs the track ‘I’m The Reason feat. Bekay & DJ Dutchmaster’, originally produced by The Returners, with a simple sample that builds into a stomping anthem not to be overlooked.

M-Phazes sews menacing synths and an evil base line on the track ‘Midnight Madness feat. Heltah Skeltah & DJ Revolution’, once again highlighting Phazes dynamic and powerful production ability. Like a master tradesman, Phazes captures the essence of each and every artist, complimenting and presenting each track as an overall masterpiece. ‘Another Classic feat. Burke, Torae, Side Effect & DJ Waxwork’ plus the Phazed Out Remix of ‘Perfect Timing feat. CL SMooth & Skyzoo’ are the signature Phazes tracks, these will be as familiar to your as your favorite set of headphones.

‘Brooklyn Bridge feat. Bekay, Masta Ace & Dj Babu (M-Phazes Remix)’ originally featured on The Hunger Pains Remix EP from Bekay, and fits perfectly into the Phazed Out mix. M-Phazes and DJ Rehttmatic combine to present a world-class compilation album with touches of the underground, riddled with a host classic tracks. This is one for the collection.

Sole’d Out- A documentary on the sneaker craze

12 07 2009

SoledOut

Australia’s reply to Just For Kicks, Sole’d Out premiers in Melbourne on the 31st of July. Low Budget will be performing on the night you can check the trailer here.

Since their emergence in 2005, Low Budget has established an enduring presence on the Australian hip hop scene. Following the widespread buzz generated by their self-released mixtape in 2005, the group’s jazzy debut album, Magnasound, was one of the surprise success stories of 2006, drawing universal enthusiasm and praise from critics and fans alike.

On the back of the critical triumph and public acclaim of Magnasound, Low Budget quickly solidified their reputation as one of the most energetic and engaging acts on Melbourne’s live scene, amassing a long list of support slots for international acts such as People Under the Stairs, Atmosphere and J Live, and local names including Funkoars, Pegz, Muph & Plutonic and Downsyde. The process of crafting songs for their celebrated live show was instrumental in forging the group’s second long-player, Laserdisc.

Laserdisc has been more than two years in the making, and has received a fantastic response so far. Laserdisc is available now on CD in JB Hi-Fi and all good record stores and iTunes. Limited edition clear vinyl copies now available from us and good record stores, only 250 copies of this were pressed, so be sure get in quick to avoid disappointment!!

The guys have also been selected by the good people at JJJ to perform at the Splendour In The Grass festival being held at Byron Bay later this month.

There should be some new tracks from Low Budget available to download at the JJJ Unearthed website site in the very near future so please swing past when and grab a copy here.

Home and Hosed also did a write up aon Low Budget, you can check that out at the Home and Hosed blog here.
The premiere is gold coin donation entry, Friday July 31, Bendigo Hotel, Collingwood. Find out more info here.
