SPIT SYNDICATE’S NEW SINGLE – ‘FOLLY’ out 19.02.2013

In the wake of Spit Syndicate’s explosive first single ‘Beauty in the Bricks’ taken from upcoming February 22nd release Sunday Gentlemen, comes the captivating second single ‘Folly’.

‘Folly’ explores the risks taken in youthfulness; choosing spontaneity over responsibility and the impending inevitability of consequence.  Spit Syndicate again demonstrate their ability to resonate with listeners, delivering their philosophies with consummate lyricism.

Sonically, ‘Folly’ encompasses all the colours of a lush Summer.  Grooving pop guitar, tranquil synths and an addictively uplifting hook. Fused seamlessly together by Stylez Fuego, Australia’s ‘it’ hip hop producer.

Already added to rotation on triple j, and receiving a hugely positive response by the public, ‘Folly’ is a guaranteed hit.

Sunday Gentlemen will be available in stores and online from February 22nd 2013.

“We’re writing on behalf of those who haven’t yet ‘figured it all out’. Whether you agree or disagree with how we’re living our lives, we’re living. ‘Folly’ is about being young, making mistakes, and making the most out of right now. Just in time for another Summer.”

– Jimmy Nice

Geko – The Horror EP out 15.02.2013

He’s an enigma, wrapped in a mystery; immersed in weed smoke.  He is Phil Gektor. A purveyor of a sacred Lingua Franca long forgotten. He arrives with a mission, a mission to impregnate the minds of listeners with The Horror. This EP, produced by the elusive Ramzee, ushers in the new age of ‘Philizm’, From the ashes of Geko‘s tormented mind state, rises a new anti-hero. Welcome to The Horror.

From the ominous intro, to the final emergency call, the listener is taken into the dark deep recesses of a mind that should be examined for quarantine. Phil Gektor, delivers his despair over a dusty dark minimalist sample-based soundscape, that compliments Phil‘s various and complex stylings perfectly. Featuring two guest verses from Crate Cartel cohort Flu – Aka Fluent Form – this timeless piece is a must have for Crate Cartel fans and Hip Hop heads alike.

Cash Krzma – Excessive & Disgusting Degrees EP out 01.02.2013

Cash KRZMA’s has been deemed a lyricist to watch out for in 2013. By pure chance his debut single ‘All Fonts’ was selected for Obesecity 2, and Cash was promptly offered distribution for his then unfinished debut EP. Collaborating with producers Neversaidall (DVS) and Able8 (Uncomfortable Beats) Cash KRZMA brings you an original sound, heavily laced with self depreciating, comical braggadocio.

Expect a dose of strong, intelligent lyrics depicting life seen though the eyes of a semi – vagabond, twenty something social misfit. From ‘Meanderings’ a ballad like depiction of the emcee’s journey thus far to ‘Tumor Fists’ a brutal assault on commercial music. No topic is off limits: drugs, plastic surgery, social class structures, virgin alien births and Kyle Sandilands purple onion. Backed up from samples by Bukowski, eighties exploitation films and smooth beats, nothing outruns the razor sharp, lizard tongued wit of this versatile rapper.

With a follow up LP The Brinkman already half written, a national tour planned to coincide with it’s release, collaborations with Slack Jaw (Freos finest) for his mix tape Eat A Rat 4 and DCORP’s Cypher Session already under his belt you can guarantee this won’t be the last you hear of this Emcee.
