Paper Plane Project supporting DJ Premier on Australian Tour

Its not everyday you get an opportunity to support one of hip hop's most influential figures. DJ Premier, arguably the best hip hop producer of all time, will be performing a one off show at Shape Nightclub in East Perth this Friday 18 June. I am fortunate enough, along with Perth DJ / Producer Taku and DJ Headayke, to be supporting DJ Premier. Tickets are sold out with a few available on the door.

Bonobo does it again

An album I cannot get enough of lately is Bonobo's latest record "Black Sands". A range of different sounds creating different moods, this is a must have for any record collection. Check the song Kiara from the album, its amazing.

Mixing At The Studio

Here's a quick video from a mixing session I did in Sydney at a studio fitted with classic 70's vintage gear. In the background is a snippet of our new track featuring Aloe Blacc on vocals.

Also performing on the night will be Accumulated Gestures who will be releasing their EP "Get Together" as well as Shameem with a live band alongside Nat from the Typhoons performing with MC Rae.

Paper Plane Project @ The Jazz Rooms

If you're in Sydney, make sure you come down and check out Jazz Rooms, featuring Mason on the decks alongside Mark Pritchard, Russ Dewbury and Deep Street Soul. It's gonna be a killer night of funk, soul, hip hop and latin beats. If you're not familair with Jazz Rooms, it's considered the longest running club night in the world! Head over to www.jazzrooms.com.au to buy a ticket.

RIP Guru

Just heard the sad news of Guru's passing. The influence that Gangstarr had on the hip hop community cannot be explained in words. RIP Guru.

I Learned The Hard Way

Now THIS is a filmclip! The guys over at Daptone have always kept it true to the funk, and this clip oozes with that 70's flavor. A perfect video to a perfect song.
