J-Lah - Time Trap EP

J-Lah - Time Trap EP

A youthful barrage of neu-disco, progressive and electro-sprinkled synths, J-Lah's Time Trap EP contains sounds for every EDM lover. The lead single, Time Trap, provides an alluring steady climb of introductory synthesizers and, after much foreplay, spontaneously combusts into a drop of rich, characterful melody with an enormous amounts of energy. Conversely, You Don't Understand conveys more intimacy - a contemplative homage to influences of past, present and future. The Time Trap EP is JLah's first official record release, and we are extremely proud to welcome him into the Burner family.

You And Your Music - Keep On Spinning (video teaser)

The good homies You And Your Music, who we've performed with a number of times before we dipped from Oz, have worked for 9 months putting together a fantastic video for the remix version of their single 'Keep On Spinning', which details the daily struggles of the bicycle courier. It's picked up some steam amongst the two-wheeler crowd, and in anticipation for the launch next month, the boys dropped a teaser for the video. Peep game. Also, you can catch the boys live with The Fam's own Bekah at the St Kilda Festival in a couple weeks!

Artist Feature: In Good Company

Oz Hip Hop is poppin' hard right now (pause). Three dope MCs came together, put their solo stuff on hold for a second, formed a group and knocked out a fresh album that's making some serious noise. The fellas took the time to chat with me about the album and other assorted rap singer related nonsense. Peep game.

The big homie Purpose has finally dropped the third volume of his 'If The City Had A Voice' series, right before his album hits y'all. Peep the press release and links below... After experiencing large underground success with If the City Had A Voice Pt. 2, touring the country twice and spending countless hours in the studio, Purpose rounds out the year by presenting the 3rd installment of his mixtape series. If the City Had A Voice pt. 3 will be released as a free download this Wednesday, November 30th.

It features 14 tracks from the Adelaide MC/producer and is mixed by DJ Hacksaw once again, showcasing the growing on track chemistry they have developed in such a short space of time. It also features Prime & Motive of Pagen Elypsis and production from Purpose himself, Rob Shaker, Answer & Debate.

‘It’s a little something to show you where I’m at in my head after having a good year and looking to even bigger things in 2012…’ - Purpose

New music: Notion - Wassup (Okay) and Cee - Pot Of Gold

So we were all like, 'fuck it. Let's make November big.' And we did. We got two new joints for y'all from both Notion and Cee...

First up, Nosh rips this fuckin' gem of a double time cut, 'Wassup (Okay) Freestyle'. This is the first time Nosh has knocked out some serious double time since like 2004/2005, so I for one was excited as hell to hear this. Peep game, and download it for free:

Notion - Wassup (Okay) Freestyle

And finally, I got my ass into gear (pause) and got around to getting my solo career started. Now keep in mind, I haven't purposely released a solo track (aside from my contribution to the homie FlamesYall's 'InternationYall' album last month) since like 2002 or something. So this is a big ass deal for me.

While my girl was in Jamaica, I rocked a cut over Game x Chris Brown's "Pot Of Gold" joint. Breezy's hook is amazing, and I felt like I had to speak my mind about why things have changed lately, and where my passion for music lies.

Please 'Like' the Cee Facebook page to get it up with The Movement Fam, Notion and Cee & Bekah pages, and download the track for free from my Bandcamp! Cee - Pot Of Gold

Rest In Power Sam 'Chap One' McNulty

It's a sad day. One of the finest MCs I've had the pleasure to work with passed away suddenly last week at the age of 30. Samuel 'Chap One' McNulty was a New York kid living in Melbourne, Australia. I didn't know the dude as well as Notion did, but he was such a talented MC and such a good dude.

Rest In Peace Sam 'Chap One' McNulty

Like Chap's Facebook page; check out the unreleased joint 'Friends'; and donate to The Chapter One Memorial Fund.

Chap appeared on two joints from Notion's 'World Domi-Notion' mixtape (2008):

To The Banquet-it My Piano ft Chap One and Cee

We'll miss you, homie.

The Movement Fam Live in Toronto in June

PROOF-Wss-June2011-500.jpg

June has already shaped up to be a big month for The Fam. My bad on slippin' on this but Notion, DJ Gentleman (making his TMF debut) and myself rocked a sick set at The Silver Dollar Room here in TO, and thanks to y'all, we pulled the biggest crowd of the night. It was stacks of fun, and hopefully we'll rock there again. And next Friday June 24th, we have a huge set as we're opening for the Track Avenue event at the legendary El Mocambo, with My Son The Hurricane and What She Said, along with March Fourth. It'll be a full line up - Notion, Cee, Bekah, DJ Gentleman and Pat Cole on the drums. Fucking vibed.

Hit me up for pre-sale tickets, otherwise we'll see y'all there! Flyers for both shows (along with FB event links) are after the jump...

So here's the first official video from the Shady and Nickel collab album, Bad Meets Evil. I fucks with it. Kinda corny for Royce but I guess he's gotta get that money. Should be insane either way.
