Botanics - What The Deal Is (video)

The new homies Botanics are on some shit.

Check the video for their latest single 'What The Deal Is'. I'm really vibin' off these cats. MCs are tight, band is dope, video is fresh.

Head over to their MySpace to check out upcoming tour dates - Melbourne heads can catch the fellas at Bar Open on Brunswick St, Fitzroy on Saturday May 8th.

Valentine's Day Special

Alright, folks. Have we got a big day this Saturday. And the fact that it's Valentine's Day is just a bonus.

For all the Melbourne heads, we have a gig on Saturday, once again at the Blue Tile Lounge in Fitzroy (95 Smith St). We're on at 9pm and will be featuring Chris Ferre, drummer from Fading Hour (who is also a member of The Movement Fam band - coming soon).

We'll be playing love-themed tunes from all four Movement Fam releases, as well as two new tracks from The Soul Movement Volume 3, and Bekah will even belt out a couple surprise covers that y'all should dig. So come on down, bring your date, check out the early set then go home to do what you do. :)

Also, check in on Friday night at 10pm, when we'll post DJ Grain and Notion's Valentine's Day mixtape. It'll also be available via www.KevinNottingham.com and Wake Your Daughter Up!. I won't say too much more about it, except that it's the perfect soundtrack to your day/evening.

The Movement Fam @ Blue Tile Lounge - Sat 10th Jan 2009

So on Saturday just gone, The Movement Fam finally had our first official gig as a crew, and the first gig of 2009. Boom. Although it was billed as a Cee & Bekah gig, the whole crew was in effect for the whole show, which was dope for the stage dynamics.

Big shouts to Cam at Blue Tile Lounge for reaching out and putting us on. We took the early time slot as we haven't rocked a gig since The Evelyn gig back in May 2008 (peep The Movement Fam YouTube page for the video).

The gig went real well though. Shouts to everyone who rolled through, we had a decent little crowd for the 9pm slot. The whole thing was filmed so we'll work out a way to get the highlights on YouTube shortly. Stay tuned for more shows in 2009...
