Couple of new bangerz from 2 of Australias finest........... IN STORE NOW AT CRUSH CITY!!!
TORNTS – DEAD BRAIN DIARIES
Tornts has been ready since he left the womb, and with fellow spitters such as Bigfoot, Diem,
Billy Bunks, Ken Oath, Jake Biz and Kid Selzy, his rhymes are merciless. Tornts is back to devastate, with 18 tracks ranging from cold street visions in No One to the relentless Hit Never Miss and the apocalyptic soundtrack synth reality of Wastelands Author. Anthems You’re All Goin Out and Bad News are placed in contrast with the brief, bleak Wish I Was Dead and the double time inspired Reaper’s My Chauffeur.
This album also sees the return of the devastating combination of Tornts and Brad Strut, tearing their lyrical sandstorm through the carefully manicured gardens of soft radio pop rap. Strut and Tornts are set to appear at the Hip Hop Kemp Festival in the Czech Republic, sharing the bill with acts such as Masta Ace, Large Professor, Necro, and Buckshot, Heltah Skeltah, plus Smif N Wessun of the legendary Boot Camp Clik.
Accompanied by two professionally shot HD video clips from leading director Heata, the lead single Hit Never Miss and the follow up joint No One, Deadbrain Diaries is set to smash through expectations for hardcore hip hop in this country and worldwide.

BIGFOOT – GIANT STEPS
(Signed copies in store now!)
A stalwart of the Melbourne music scene since the mid 90’s, Bigfoot needs little introduction to those with an ear to the underground. Etching out a reputation for thunderous production, aggressive flows and a formidable stage presence, Bigfoot has been a scene-stealer since day one. Following the momentum created by his regular appearances on the now legendary PBS 'Formula' sessions, Bigfoot began his reputation as a prolific guest-spot killer with his verse on Brad Strut's 'Authentic' LP in 2001, and he soon appeared on studio tracks and live bills with the likes of Bias B, Tornts, Hospice Crew, Brothers Stoney and Reason.
As the buzz intensified, he released the 'Footprints' 12- inch in 2004 which has become a much sought-after collector's item. Building on his close ties with members of Queensland's 750 Rebels, Bigfoot temporarily relocated to the Sunshine State, where he dropped yet another devastating guest verse on Lazy Grey's 'The Soundtrack.' People were starting to wonder when he would drop a full length album of his own. “Giant Steps” is what the fiends have been waiting for. It marks Bigfoot’s emergence from the underground into the upper echelon of Australian Hip-Hop, and years spent building his strength as an MC and producer have paid off with this stunning debut. “I didn’t want to just slap together a sub-par album and throw it out there,” explains Bigfoot “It’ss been so long in the making that I had to make it worth the wait.” Produced entirely by Bigfoot himself along with Hired Goons accomplice Heata, “Giant Steps” is a sonically diverse opus constructed from all manner of eclectic sounds, ranging from dirty funk samples and jazz infused live guitars, to ghostly synths, monstrous bass lines and hard hitting drums.
Opener “Stepped on” is a driving electro-fuzz stampede laced with an unrelenting verbal tirade that harks back to Bigfoot’s days spent on the battle circuit, while “What Goes Around” and “Stop” are mercilessly dramatic street stories detailed over eerily hypnotic backdrops. “Can I Kick It?” is an energetic workout that sees Bigfoot teamed with Bias B for some tongue in cheek verbal sparring, with the Melbourne veteran also trading rapid fire verses over “Burnin’ Hot”, a blisteringly paced microphone meltdown.
With “Giant Steps”, Bigfoot proves his versatility: one minute it's the smooth fusion of Bigfoot and Dialectrix on “We Got That” with dialogue delivered deftly over the fluid instrumental. The next, it's Bigfoot and his Hired Goons crew letting loose on “Hell’s Gates”, with Tornts, Fletchrock, Billy Bunks, Gargoyle and Ciecmate all proving their prowess over an ominous track.
“Sucker M.C.’s” finds Bigfoot and the 750 Rebels paying homage to their influences over a spine chilling banger laced with old school hip hop, and “Round & Round” takes us on a bleakly introspective journey tinged with a touch of soul courtesy of Muph and Miss Brown, lamenting the burden that comes when everything feels like it's about to fall in on you. Rounded out with additional appearances by Brad Strut, Fluent Form and Brothers Stoney, “Giant Steps ” is an epic ride through the mind of a Melbourne MC and producer at the peak of his powers, not just living up to expectations, but surpassing them.
Dont sleep..!

Jake Biz Purgatory 2 promo EP1
With a string of recent guest appearances alongside some of OzHiphop’s finest artists and the success of his ‘PURGATORY’ June 2010 release receiving some 900 plus downloads, JAKE BIZ returns with the second installment titled ‘PURGATORY 2’. In the lead up to the full length debut COMMERCIAL HELL droppin early 2011 on KARSNIOGENICS, JAKE BIZ is set to blaze a hellish trail across the scene.
‘PURGATORY 2’ kicks off enlisting the talents of Ozhiphop legends BIAS B and LAZY GREY to throw down on THE STATESMEN produced stomper ‘GETTHEFUCKOUTTAHERE – REMIX’, with the EP culminating in the 750 REBELS feature banger ‘THE SHAKEDOWN’, a BROOKES CULLINGS (aka OVERPROOF PETE) produced mammoth that captures Brisbane’s most revered crew at their dream-shattering best.
Jake’s fellow WARPIG member and frequent collaborator BIGFOOT take it back to their Gangsta Rap roots on the heartfelt dedication to feminism ‘HOW ABOUT IT’, while Jake goes it alone on THE STATESMEN produced joint ‘STILL DRUNK’.
We continue the wait with fiery anticipation for ‘COMMERCIAL HELL’, the official debut long player from JAKE BIZ with longtime friend and collaborator OVERPROOF PETE, and as such enjoy your stay in Purgatory for just a few moments longer.
