Thank you, all 3 sound dope. Just what I was looking for.

I'm always on the look out for artists offering new original material.

I recommend all rap/hip hop listeners have a listen to "@peace". Released in 2011 it is a 9 track collab album offering a fresh original beat that is ridiculously smooth, flicking a switch inside that make you're breathing slow and body bop to the flow. Beautiful beats obviously made with a lot of creative thought mixed with lyrics founded on social and political consciousness, not opinionated just aware and asking why and one quite provoking track on our existence(The track dubbed "nothing" is obviously recorded straight after indulging in around 10 joints). Find the tracks on you tube and I believe you can find the album on spotify. Hope you enjoy.

I couldn't post URL's because i'm still a music banter grommit

ha.

this might sound crazy but i don't even know where to look for dark e freaker, no wiki, no bandcamp page nothing. I like his cuts on youtube though

Clutch · 01-15-2013, 05:15 PM

Hey. I'm not much into rap but I really like The Gorillaz. Have any recommendations

MF Doom was on "November Has Come" and he's about as laid back there as per usual.

Yep, he is absolutely fucked. Look for Oil Gang and No Hats No Hoods record labels. I think they have bandcamps. Darq E just released an EP called 924 EP and I believe it is on iTunes now.

Did you see that video I posted a few pages back?

BIG H 'VERSUS' DARQ E FREAKER - HADES 2012/06/18 - YouTube

That beat is amazing ^

Darq E Freaker - ROAR by BoogalooCity on SoundCloud - Hear the world

Check that too ^

I've got a few of his beats on my hard drive I think if you want me to up them and send them.

Sparky · 01-15-2013, 05:30 PM

yeah dude, i did watch that vid before, i like it. I like most of the UK stuff you be posting(terminator in elzhi thread included)ill def take an up if ya don't mind no rush, at your discretion.

dark hasn't released a ep yet?

edit: whups was reading your post out of order, ill be downloading that thanks

Sparky · 01-15-2013, 05:33 PM

PM sent.

I can probably get the EP if you don't want to buy it also.

The reason his stuff is hard to find, is because he is affiliated/works in Grime circles and they are not the most professional with releasing music.

Worth checking out Tempa T - Next Hype (his biggest track) on Youtube too and Slew Dem's music in general if you like Darq E.

That's good too ^
