Stateovmind Live Like Kings Official Video

The Crate Tape EP  will be the fourth solo release from Stateovmind and is entirely produced by Develop from FNQ’s Beat Basement Records. This five track extended play sees Stateovmind move away from the cleaner sound of his previous releases and take a slight detour towards a much more raw “Boom Bap Sound”. The Crate Tape is a unique twist on a tried, tested and effective formula, and is inspired by a time when you listened to your favorite rap album on a dubbed TDK cassette tape. Develop has dug deep into his record crates and picked the finest samples to chop, … Continue reading Stateovmind Live Like Kings Official Video

Stateovmind – Better Than Postcards

Stateovmind returns with his new EP Better Than Postcards (BTP), the follow up to his well-received debut Something for Nothing. BTP quite literally picks up where his debut left off, as only days after finishing his first EP, Stateovmind took off backpacking around Europe much like many other first time travelling Australians. While away, Stateovmind linked up with European based beatmakers and emcee’s, gathered some beats, collaborated with some great artists and had many unforgettable experiences. 4 months and 14 countries later, the new 8-track EP is the final result, mixing descriptive language, a booming soundscape and hypnotic harmonies. The lead … Continue reading Stateovmind – Better Than Postcards

Stateovmind – Something For Nothing EP

Short, crisp and delicious are three words that can describe the Debut EP from Canberra’s own Stateovmind. This five track offering serves the listener up a mouth watering selection of clever, poetic and potent wordplay. With classic and fresh home-style flavours which range from the traditional to the more modern and personal. All the while simmering amongst a sound-scape of handpicked drum soaked bass bubbling beats. Delivered by some of Australia’s premier beatsmiths including M-Phazes. Coming from the isolated, forgotten and often criticised Canberra has given Stateovmind the time and space to develop a unique style of home-grown hip hop. Despite … Continue reading Stateovmind – Something For Nothing EP
