my friends i'm back from the cap with tons of photos, thoughts and influences. plus: i have recommendations to make. two must have treasures. the "jazz liberatorz - clin d'oeil" box and "dday one - heavy migration" album

"JAZZ LIBERATORZ"
is a paris based trio founded in 1999 (dj damage, dusty and madhi). released on kif records, which is a label well know for artists like birdy nam nam, pepe bradock, ... jazz liberatorz are producing mad funky, jazzy hip hop featuring the dope mcs (apani b, sadat x, j-live, raashan ahmad of cown city rockers, buckshot, tableek, fatlip, ...). "clin d'oeil" is their first full length album and it just hit the recordstores worldwide. available as a 6x12" box with the album with cd and a shirt (limited to 500 pieces). you love hip hop, you gonna love this!

"DDAY ONE"
who is definitely one of my most favourite producers since heard his first album "loop extensions" he released on a limited vinyl edition in 2006. after some appearences on several compilations (especially on project mooncircle), his new double LP "heavy migration" is out. deep basslines, kickin drums and very beautiful melancholic guidelines. the name of his official website and the statement on its first page say it all: www.samplist.com. i love it. my current album favourite: "at the village gate".

check both artists other releases if you like what you hear. they're all dope!
dday one - heavy mirgration (available on 2LP, content label)
jazz liberatorz - clin d'oeil (available on CD or in limited box with 6x12", kif records)

Finally, it´s beginning to look like summer again round here in Austria. This means  leaving urban territory for good, this means barbecue, this means lakeside chilling, this means outdoor festival season, but even more important this means the skateboardcontest season is about to kick off...  

The annual "Spring Battle Skateboardcontest", presented by Cultural Boarders and Die Grünen, takes place at Skatepark Vöcklabruck / Upper Austria on June 7th 2008.

Expect a bigtime session with Austria´s best skaters...
