Twelve 12s # 30 - Outkast

“It’s pretty common knowledge that Outkast are my favourite group of all time – and unquestionably every 12” of theirs is hella jammin whichever way you flip it! Therefore for this Twelve 12”s.I decided to put mostly alternative remixes of many of their classics with the odd b-side, extra feature and original.
So much has been said about the maejsty of Outkast over the years that I won’t go on, instead just give you this latest all vinyl, all the way live Twelve 12”s dedicated to the masters.” - Rob

DJ Muro // Stones Throw Loves Japan Tour Vol. 2

@ Unit / Tokyo 02.11.2011
“There’s something to be learnt from looking at which artists have cancelled their Japan tours recently – and which ones haven’t. We’re sure there was a bit of hand-wringing involved in Stones Throw’s decision to push forward with its 15th anniversary tour here… but only a little bit. After all, Japan is one of the most enthusiastic audiences for the hip-hop imprint’s wayward output, and the love is clearly mutual.
Stones Throw boss Peanut Butter Wolf will be returning to these shores with his brain-boggling video DJ set, alongside turntable pioneer J. Rocc – whose solo album drops this week – and soulful crooner Mayer Hawthorne, the latter flexing his muscles behind the record decks for a change. That’s only half of the line-up, though: there’ll also be a sizable posse of local hip-hoppers doing their thing, including Zen-La-Rock, Muro and Luvraw & BTB.” - Timeout Japan
J-Live // S.P.T.A. Said Person of That Ability

“J-Live’s long awaited fifth full length album. “S.P.T.A. Said Person of That Ability” (Pronounced Spitta) is the follow up to the Undivided Attention EP. This is the first full length project released from his own imprint Triple Threat Productions.
The producer, deejay and emcee, approach this project creatively as if he were a three man group, rather than a solo artist. The album features production by J-Live, RJD2, Nicolay, The Audible Doctor, Illastrate, Korede, Floyd The Locsmif, Marco Polo and Diamond D.”

2 Bit Thugs - Half Hour Hype Vol. 1 - 3

“2 Bit Thugs smashed onto the dance scene with their trademark ‘Gangster House’ sound blending HipHop vocals with booming house beats all backed by turntable trickery. They were quickly snapped up by newly born label ‘A New Hope Records’ and soon found their tracks in the DJ bags of Jack Beats, Barry Ashworth, DJ Yoda, Deekline, Will Bailey & DJ Zinc. Radio support followed with Annie Nightingale, KissySellOut & Eddy Temple Morris all playing the duo’s productions.
2009 saw the Thugs go back to their roots with a more broken beat approach to their sets mixing Garage, Dubstep, Breakbeat, Hip Hop, House and D&B for a much more bass rumbling, floor shaking show with quick mixes, edits & their unique scratching all on 4 decks & 2 mixers. They were soon selected to play peak time slots at Tignesfest (France), Glade & Aeon Festival showcasing the heavy beats & rudeboy basslines they have become famous for.
Last year saw the birth of 2 Bit Thugs own blog and label; a central hub for the pair to release their own records, preview their famous ReRub series, give away tracks & keep fans & friends updated with everything happing in the Thugs world. 2010 was a step up for the duo with performances at both Secret Garden Party & Bestival, support from Diplo, Laurent Garnier, DJ Icey, Baobinga, Tayo, remixes for Dub Pistols, Slyde, Sporty-O & Deeklines Top 20 Hit ‘I Don’t Smoke’, a feature in DJ Mag and a ‘Top Ten’ mix of XFM featuring no less than 66 tracks!
2011 is already in full swing with the studio sessions lasting days on end! Remixes for Husky Rescue (Catskills Records) and another for Dub Pistols are on their way as well as a barrage of original material all still to come will see 2 Bit Thugs live up to the hype being built around them.” - 2 bit thugs
