KrateDiggin!

Hey guys and girls!



I'm back, fresh from a crazy day with my ESP Family at the Hyper Japan expo at Earls Court! Shoutout to Charli-Anne and EricaSharlette for bringing me down. The event was Anime/Gamer's Heaven, so you could say that today had been grrrreat!


But to work now, and the reason for today's post. I want to announce the release date for my new project! 'KrateDiggin', - 15 tracks of instrumentals all produced by me, will be released right here, on March 5th!



My original studio spot was always behind the mixing board and not the microphone. This always has been and always will be, a very big passion of mine. Being around musicians all my life helped to inspire that part of me.

'Crate-digging' is a term that's used in Hip Hop, where Producers would literally dig in crates of vinyl records, searching for samples to help create their music. With the instrumentals that I've created, I wanted to stick with the 'sample-beat' sound. That is what gave me the idea for KrateDiggin. I've used very familiar and very unfamiliar samples to create a varied, complete collection.

Check out the preview taken from it with "Don't U Know".

 

Let me know how you feel about it, more blog posts coming soon!!

A Whole Lotta Love This February...

Hey everybody!

The month of February has been a very busy one indeed.

As you know, the latest Unsigned Hype UK mixtape (Valentine's Edition) was realised on the 1st, and my track 'Thoughts Of Her' is on there. Proud to say it's the opening song as well! (Shout out to all at Unsigned Hype UK; always grateful for the support). The song is also an original composition, all produced by myself.

Since we're talking about that, not everyone is fully aware yet that I am a Producer / Musician, as well as a Vocalist. Stay tuned as I have a lot more coming on that front. Some very exciting news is on the way guys!!

My good friend and R2S squad member Korshun also released 'Valenrhymes' this week. I feature on his Valentine's Day mixtape special along with Culprit Cash, Krome and Prophyle. I am on 'Dance With Me' with Korshun and also have a solo song 'Day Dreaming' produced by Evo AC!
