MH-211 Curse Ov Dialect - Lost In The Real Sky  Not content with recycling the same old beats and rhymes, Curse Ov Dialect reach for the next level by reinterpreting sounds from all eras and arenas into unique sonic collages with a hyper edge and extreme bounce. Their Mush debut, Lost In The Real Sky is an eighteen track introduction to their sound. Blending political raps written with the skill of a multi-cultural Public Enemy, a punk-rock aesthetic, and production that balances melodic samples and classic drums with world class turntablism, their focus is clearly on music as avant-garde hip-hop opera. From the playful opening snaps of "Baby How?" through the old world groove of "Multicultural Markets" to the darkness of "Water Thicker Than Blood," Lost In The Real Sky is an impressive debut from a unique and challenging new group. |

| I'm not too familiar with the hip-hop scene in Australia, but this is certainly some high quality, experimental shit - over seventy minutes worth, to be exact. The politics of their music drips from each song as the beats skip along with staccato vocals dancing over samples, loops, an infusion of international flavors and dope-ass scratches. For the most part, it's a minimalist, stripped down, rapid beat approach with enough stuff going on at once to make it extremely creative - but this isn't you're mainstream style of hip-hop, this is definitely more abstract and unusual. Fans of such artists as Atmosphere, Alias and Busdriver will find this to be well worth adding to their collection. - Impact Press |
