UGLY DUCKLING - live! 25/8/2010

UGLY DUCKLING formed in 1993 in Long Beach, California, consisting of Dizzy Dustin, Young Einstein and Andy Cooper. Their attitude to hip hop is about having fun and they often mock the clichéd gangster rappers who dominate the mainstream. 


Heavily influenced by old skool hip hop, they embrace the original styles of rap music; turntablism and MCing. DJ Young Einstein is well-known for killer scratches and live tricks, and is a key part of the show.

 

Renowned for their live shows in which they fully engage the crowd, creating an incredible, dynamic performance, these guys are unmissable for anyone into the funky, old skool styles of hip-hop.

 

Plus support from: Kinny, Fistful Of Dynamite & DJ Mylz.

Guru (Gangstarr / Jazzmatazz) Tribute - cancer charity fundraiser 28/5/2010

 

"Instead of preaching death in my songs I breathe life."

The legendary hip hop MC, Guru (Gifted Unlimited Rhymes Universal) died last month aged 43, following a battle with cancer.

His work with Gangstarr, Jazzmatazz and later as a solo artist was reverred around the world by fans and musicians from all backgrounds.

The group Gangstarr was conceived as early as 1985, and steadily started to help to define the sound of New York hip-hop. Guru's positive lyrics and anti-thugging stance, combined with DJ Premier's unique production skills, have struck a chord with many a listener. By 2003, Gangstarr had 6 albums and untold numbers of fans under their belt.

Guru's Jazzmatazz project was truly ground-breaking, bringing together disparate artists including Donald Byrd, N'Dea Davenport, Roy Ayers, Chaka Khan, Ramsey Lewis, Branford Marsalis and Jamiroquai to create original and pioneering sounds, and break boundaries between genres.

All proceeds of this event will go to cancer charities. Below are the suggestions we have received so far - please contact us if you have any ideas...
- Cancer Reseach UK
- Macmillian
- Myeloma UK
- African Caribbean Leukemia Trust (ACLT)
- Teenage Cancer Trust

We want as many people to get involved as possible, so if you'd like to DJ, perform, help raise money on the night, or just help spread the word, please let us know...

PLANET OF THE BREAKS & HEDUCATION
Proudly present - History of Hip Hop Live!

GRANDMASTER MELLE MEL & THE FURIOUS 5
feat KURTIS BLOW

2 HIP HOP LEGENDS – LIVE ON 1 STAGE!
“It's like a jungle sometimes it makes me wonder
how I keep from going under”

Legendary rap group ‘THE FURIOUS 5’ are to Hip Hop what the Rolling Stones are to rock. Their seminal recordings ‘The Message’ & ‘White Lines’ are 2 of the most famous & successful Hip Hop tracks ever released! Alongside DJ Grandmaster Flash, The Furious 5 have toured the world over & with the likes of U2, The Clash & Prince. Their recordings are amongst the most sampled in the history of Hip Hop, & In 2007 they became the first Hip Hop group ever inducted into the Rock & Roll hall of fame. Not to mention being instrumental in the creation of an entire genre, creating the template for the billon dollar a year industry, and the subculture called Hip Hop which we know today. True legends!!
http://www.furious5.co.uk

KURTIS BLOW is one of the founders and creators of recorded rap, stands as a leader of the generation of rappers with street sense, social criticism, and commercial savvy, a timeless artist and hip hop legend. In 1979, at the age of twenty, Kurtis Blow became the first Rapper to be signed by a major label. His track If I Ruled the World was top 5 on the Billboard's R & B chart, the track later ressurected in sample form by Nas, taking it to the top spot in 1997.
Equally at home behind the desk, Kurtis provided production for the likes of The Fat Boys, Run DMC, Love Bug Starski, Sweet Gee, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Full Force, Russell Simmons and Wyclef Jean. A true pioneer throughout his career, Mr Blow blazed a trail in taking hip hop into mainstream culture:
First Hip Hop artist to sign to a Major label
First certified gold record for Hip Hop
First Hip Hop artist to tour US & Europe
First Hip Hop artist to record a national TV commercial (Sprite)
First Hip Hop artist to use the drum machine, sample & sample loop
First Hip Hop music video (Basketball)
First Hip Hop producer (Rap's producer of the year in 1983 & 85)
First Hip Hop artist featured in a soap opera (One Life to Live)
First Hip Hop millionaire
Kurtis Blow helped legitimize Hip Hop. Straight up!

Heducation 9th Birthday vs DJ Switch (World Champ) 21st Birthday 29/1/2010

Heducation 9th Birthday Flyer

 

Heducation, the Midland’s number one hip-hop and funk night, joins forces with reigning world champion, DJ Switch, to celebrate their 9th and 21st birthdays respectively.

 

The event will be powered by Serato, creators of the ground-breaking Scratch Live DJ/VJ software. They will be providing their AV master, DJ Cheeba, to take the party to the next level with his mind-boggling, live audio-visual mixing. Not only that but, DJ Switch’s turntablist crew, Bionic Stylus, twice holders of the UK team crown, will be combining forces to scratch and weave together hip hop, dubstep and drum & bass, as they make their first appearance together in Birmingham.

 

With his trademark slick blend of classic breaks, hip-hop, electronica, rock, kid’s records, d&b, and in fact everything in between and beyond, Cheeba has the unrivalled technical ability, knowledge and humour to pull it all together like no one else. In 2008, Cheeba won the coveted ‘Solid Steel Mix Of The Year’ with his, highly regarded, genre twisting mixtape ‘The Case of The Missing Records’ and has since officially joined the Solid Steel family alongside Ninja Tune legends such as Coldcut and DJ Food.

 

Cheeba is now pushing boundaries even further, using turntables and Serato Video SL to enable video controlled by real vinyl records. Cheeba brings scratching and juggling both sounds and pictures into the mix with stunning live results. Original films, remixes and music videos blend seamlessly with inspired video mash-ups, unusual animations and a wealth of wonderful and often bizarre visual sources. It’s a video show unlike any other!

 

To say that DJ Switch's rise to fame is nothing less than dramatic would be very accurate, as he is the first to win 5 UK DMC DJ championships, the first to win 3 consecutive UK DMC Battle For Supremacy titles and yes... the first to win 2 back-to-back World DMC Battle For Supremacy titles, and all by the tender age of twenty.

 

As well as his club and battle duties, Switch is now a part-time DJ tutor, specialising in digital DJing and turntablism. He also has a countless list of radio broadcast work, youth training schemes and several other projects to his name, including his performance of Gabriel Prokofiev's "Concerto For Turntables & Orchestra" which has received critical acclaim from audiences and critics alike.

 

Heducation has been putting on events in the Midlands, across the UK and Europe since the beginning of 2001, embracing hip hop, funk, breaks, drum + bass, dubstep, soul, reggae and everything in between. It's always been about good vibes, good music, and friendly hedz. Guest artists have including Public Enemy, De La Soul, DJ Yoda and UK beatbox champion, Beardyman.

ARTIST BIOGS:

DJ SWITCH (UK DMC SUPREMACY CHAMP 2007) - http://www.myspace.com/djswitchbeatz

Anthony Culverwell aka DJ Switch is one of the UK’s most promising and upcoming talents. As a 2 times national champion, an artist keen to explore undiscovered gems of music and share them, as well as displaying his technical prowess, he already represents the way forward in the art of the DJ.
Switch has stayed in the shadows of the Birmingham DJ scene for some time. Having begun at the tender age of 11, he remained self-taught for two years until entering the DJ Academy. He has since worked with Walsall-based graffiti artist Chu, Brum circuit-regulars Munchbreak, has been featured on MTV, BBC Breakfast, Blue Peter and within various other articles.
The year 2005 saw him get his first major breaks. He entered the Youth Music mixtape competition to play an opening slot at the Homelands festival and won, despite making and sending in the mix at the last minute. Subsequently he spun to a crowd in excess of 10,000, warming the stage for such turntable luminaries as the Scratch Perverts, Grandmaster Flash & DJ Kentaro. The very same week saw him win the Derby heat of the DMC battle, beating off 25 other competitors for a place in the national final. The win subsequently led to his appearance and performance on Ras Kwame’s Radio 1 show.
Eager for victory, next year did not disappoint as Switch finally claimed his first title, the DMC UK Battle for Supremacy – the youngest winner Britain has seen in any category – and gained a very respectable 3rd place at the world finals. Keen to do better for himself and his country, he defended and successfully retained his accolade the subsequent year (another first) and intends to do so for a third time.
But Anthony does not just confine himself to battling; he regularly gets involved in community work and youth education. The ‘Soundshifter’ project saw him working with DJ Moyma and a number of multi-instrumentalists to help music students create their own experimental compositions; he has aided in the running of temporary broadcast stations Kic FM and Smethwick Sound FM for young people; ‘Start Local’ saw him aiding Birmingham-based bands and vocalists in improving their performing talents, and he has also helped in various peoples' DJ tuition.
In his live performances, Switch's eclecticism doesn't stop his shows being technically adept, entertaining, and showcasing the gemstones of music you don't get to hear everyday. Everything is “cut, pasted and mixed to make a tasty lasagne”. An approach which few are either technically able to take, or prepared to do, Switch represents where the art of the DJ can be taken.

BATTLE STATISTICS:
2002 -- West Midlands DJ Champion
2003 -- 'Itchy' Runner-up @ Medicine Bar, Birmingham
2005 -- IDJ Turntablist Of The Month (April)
-------- Youth Music/Homelands Mixtape Champion
-------- DMC Derby Champion
-------- DMC UK Battle For Supremacy Runner-up
-------- ITF Nottingham Champion
2006 -- DMC UK Battle For Supremacy Champion
-------- DMC UK Team Battle, Runner-up
-------- DMC World Supremacy Semi Finalist
2007 -- DMC UK Battle For Supremacy (Defending) Champion



MC BARROWCLOUGH (PHANTOM LIMB) - LIVE! - http://www.myspace.com/verticalthinkers

Since his first release in 1994, under the name MC Damaj, Barrowclough has graced studios and stages alike with a unapologetic energy and enthusiasm, using poetic lyrics to challenge the accepted vices of hip-hop, and offer an alternative viewpoint on life.
He has been a key member of Michaelis Constant - LP releases included 'Foreign Correspondence' (1999), and 'Gondwanaland' (2002) - for those that slept, check out www.zangproductions.co.uk. More recently, he has performed as part of the Phantom Limb Phenomenon, and following months of hard work, is on the verge of finishing the production of his first solo LP.
Watch out for his legendary tracks - 'Penalties', which is a thorough analysis of England's inability to win the world cup, and also the legendary beard track.


XERXES (TEMPO TANTRUM, LONDON) - http://www.myspace.com/xerxes_tt

Xerxes is one of the main driving forces behind Tempo Tantrum. Tempo Tantrum launched in London in 2000, bringing together different breakbeat styles - 2-step, breaks and broken beat. With DnB in one room and a mix of breaks, broken beat and dubstep in the other, Tempo Tantrum lived up to its name and has since become renowned for eclectic events with a vibe that is second to none. The mission was simple - to join the dots between all the different mutations of breakbeat.
Over the years guest DJs have included Dee Kline (Rat Records), Tipper (Fuel Records), Landslide (Hospital Records), J Da Flex (1Xtra), Aquasky (Passenger Records), Danny McMillan (TCR), DJ Quest (Cyberfunk Records), Horsepower Productions (Tempa) and Jason Sparks (Botchit and Scarper).
Expect some fiery-but-funky breaks to finish off the evening.

Artist Biogs:

DJ VADIM - http://www.myspace.com/djvadim

Founder of Jazz Fudge in early 1995, A&R, producer, DJ, promoter, record collector, radio presenter, occasional painter, writer, and in-house producer/dj and cohort of Latin Grammy nominees, Spanish hip hop super group 7 Notas 7 Colorez, Vadim has certainly been keeping himself busy. And that’s before we even mention his...

DJing

...which has seen him perform in virtually every country in Europe(east and west), all over North America, Australia, New Zealand. Japan, Israel, Turkey, South America and South East Asia in just the last year. He has also performed with the likes of DJ Krush, Company Flow, The Roots, Pharcyde, Public Enemy, Beat Junkies, Dilated Peoples, Kraftwerk, supported Super Furry Animals, Morcheeba and Paul Weller as well as at events like Glastonbury and the Moscow Street Ball festival (to over 60,000 people!). To describe the man as an internationalist almost seems to sell him short. In 1992, the Russian ex-pat bought a sampler and started working on the music that would become Abstract hallucinating Gases and Headz ain't ready. Later in the year he signed to Ninja Tune which culminated in his debut LP USSR Repertoire. From these early recordings came a remix LP USSR Reconstruction featuring DJ Krush, Kid Koala, Mark B, Silent Poets, various 12” both for Ninja Tune and Jazz Fudge, a mix tape and CD with DJ Primecuts ( world ITF champ 99 and Scratch Pervert). In 1999 came the abstract funk collaboration LP of The Isolationist produced by Vadim, scratched by DJ Primecuts and vocalised by anti pop consortium. Relentless international tours followed with Swollen Members/Company Flow/ Jazz Fudge....and the purchase of yet more dusty vinyl's to his already burdening collection.
This all culminated in the very successful last LP USSR: Life from the other side (Ninja Tune 1999). The LP featured Co Flow, Scratch perverts, Iriscience(from dilated peoples), Blade amongst others and caused quite a storm in USA with the track ‘your revolution’ featuring Sarah Jones. This song was banned by the FCC (USA radio regulators) for explicit and provocative lyrics, despite Jones actually satirising the attitudes and words of the mainstream rap and r&b that could be heard pumping out of the radio every day.

Time for some Russian Percussion

To promote that LP, Vadim put together a live group - The Russian Percussion - consisting of Mr thing (turntables), Killer Kela (beat box), Blu Rum 13 (mc), John Ellis (Keyboards) and himself. The response to the group was amazing and they performed together in over 600 shows in about 45 countries including most of Europe and North America. Feeling tired yet? Hang on in there. 2001 saw even more dj’ing, production and actually presenting, for the very first time... The BBC commissioned 3 radio shows including the very successful Sony award nominated programme ‘around the world in 8 relays’. Tours followed with Sarah Jones, Killa Kela as support and collaborator for Super furry Animals and Spanish and South American tours with '7 Notas 7 Colorez' which resulted in the group being nominated by the Latin Grammies for best Latin Hip Hop group. The Art of listening is born "…Listening” has all of the angular abstractions of Vadim’s earlier work, but here it is combined with a new depth of musicality, a love of bass and an interest in music and words from around the world. So, alongside UK MC's like Taskforce and Phi Life Cipher and the cream of US underground wordspitters like Slug, Gift of Gab, Motion Man and Vakill can be found Polish jazz legend Urzula Dudziak (a favoured sample source for 'A Tribe Called Quest' back in the day), Gruff from Super Furry Animals, Brazilian Swedish mistress of poetic innovation Yarah Bravo, Ade Soma and the Reverend Clevie Brown. Tablas and djembe drums mix with Japanese flutes, Brazilian guitars, spoken word, obscure scratched sound bites and a definite UK street sound incorporating hints of jungle bass and drums, all build the whole into something unusual and special It makes for a heady mixture, a record which Vadim describes as "a very grown up but cheeky and extremely musical album.” Urban but experimental, fresh and different, this record goes beyond not only what he has done before, but beyond much of today’s hip hop. With its global view of music, it’s new emphasis on soul, its concrete feel for the aesthetic of the sample, "The Art Of Listening” is funny, serious, unique.

The super group ONE SELF

All of this transports us to 2005 and Vadim hasn’t been idle! Something new has been brewing in East London and it isn't grime or the smell of Indian curry. Cosmopolitan, diverse, colourful, loud and definitely not middle of the road, perhaps an ideal setting for this debut international hip hop crew. After circumnavigating the globe more times than NASA collectively these artists individually are not new to this game but what better place is there to meet and fuse 3 continents together to create an album soaked in the richness of each of their backgrounds and musical upbringing. Oneself is born. However this is not what you might of expected. This is something a little different, more progressive, united, cohesive and perhaps is a re birth. One Self are - Dj Vadim, Yarah Bravo and Blu Rum 13 The future Can one man be any more productive? Well the 4 Weetabix a day powerhouse has much more to come. Already cemented are productions for UK spitter’s Dark Circle, Foreign Beggars, Aspect’s, Kela as well as hot new Parisian super crew Bunzen, Up coming Latin lyrical reggae giant Paco Mendoza..... Music for Absolute Vodka, NOKIA. News of a 7 Notas 7 Colorez reunion, the new DJ Vadim LP - Sound Catcher out on BBE and countless other production’s, remixes dropping somewhere soon. Can it all be good? One thing for sure whether it’s Flamenco hip hop, Arabian space funk, Lettuce propelled rockets, new Vad reggae alias Junior Rankin or instro funk shiznittz Blixton Rodriguez, quality is guaranteed. hip hop but also so much more




JUICE ALEEM – http://www.myspace.com/jerusalaam 

One of the original members of the group Gamma, he later joined the group New Flesh who have released three albums and been on numerous tours appearing all over Europe and the UK.

As a soloist Juice has worked with many different artists from live dates with Amon Tobin, Cinematic Orchestra and DJ EASE of Nightmares On Wax. Supported artists such as Moloko and Massive Attack. Recorded appearances with the likes of Roots Manuva, Black Twang, Mike Ladd, Telepopmusik. Hexstatic and Adam Freeland.

ZINGA WARRIORZ (LIVE D+B)
Explosive 6-deep live d+b cru fresh out of Birmingham, showcasing their brand new material.
Featuring: Soulful female vocals from Boogaloo, the Don Carlo on live drums, the 3 mc's (P.K, Staitee & Stride), bass guitar, sample triggering & DJ Payne on the decks.
"We want to bring something that's been missing from drum and bass. Originality, crossover appeal and a proper live show". Brothers, PK and Stride were already music fiends before they even hit their teens. Growing up in Birmingham's cultural hotbed they were influenced by hip-hop and b-boy culture from an early age. They met up with like-minded Statey and formed various groups, playing live whenever possible. They were influenced by various styles but dance-music was the common feature that connected them. This fact soon led to them discovering the fast emerging UK culture of illegal raves, pirate radio and eventually Jungle music. As Jungle turned into drum and bass, nights sprung around Birmingham. PK and Stride returned to their hip-hop roots and began MCing and producing DnB beats alongside the effervescent Statey. As Statey points out, "the music reflects the sights and sounds of the city," that's so important to them. It was also important to make use of all their skills. "We wanted to incorporate the live elements that we'd learnt over the years." Thus before long it was natural to take their raw, energetic productions and throw them into the live mixing pot, with exciting performances at underground club nights. It was at one of these nights that they met DJ Payne who impressed with his down to earth approach and undiluted selection when spinning tunes. "Originally I joined as a sound engineer and DJ" continues Payne - but it wasn't long before he was throwing his own production vibes into the Zinga Warriorz mix. Since then Zinga Warriorz have become a 6-headed crew with talented soulster, Boogaloo, adding sweet female vocals. and energetic drummer "DON" Karlo performing the beats for the live sets. The result, emanating from their newly completed 'Down 2 Earth' production Studios, is a Grubby, neon DnB sound for the 21st century, clearly born out of a passion for the music and diverse culture that surrounds it. "So, are Zinga Warriorz a collective, live group, crew?" It doesn't matter," says Payne, "as long as the originality and zinga quality control is there." However you want to classify them, from the quality of their early releases its clear that this is a passion definitely worth following.

DJ STX (ECLER PRO TEAM)
Stx, previously one half of Heducation, now reps for Ecler on a national scale. His carefully moulded selection of hip hop, reggae and funk always rocks the house. If we’re really lucky he might even bring his alter-ego, Deano Ferrino. We can only hope!

ECHO & COLA (LIQUID D+B SET)
Heducation regular Cola, takes an excursion into fast-flowing, soulful drum and bass, with fellow beat-merchant, Echo.

MYLZ (HEDZ)
The Jack Russell of hip hop, Miles continues to bark up the wrong tree, but we’re gonna leash him to the decks, so there’ll be no chasing pussies.

BEATBULLYZ LIVE! ('UK UNSIGNED 2006' FINALIST)
Beatbullyz burst onto the scene with their cutting edge sound in April 2005. The trio immediately made an impact with the mix of ska, funk, hip hop and soulful melodic hooks with big beats and bass. Throughout the year their energetic live show saw them support artists such as DJ YODA, Nate James, DJ First Rate and Cuban Brothers, playing Austria's Snowbombing festival and Rotterdams Heineken Street Parade, and shows at venues such as Jazz Cafe London, 93 feet east, Medicine Bar and Boiler Room in Brum, Moles Club in Bath, Brunel Rooms and many more. Now with a finely polished and evolving live show,the trio have become a foursome by welcoming the wicked scratch skillz of DJ Philonious Funk. They are in the finals of the nationwide UK unsigned competition which takes place at Clapham Grand the week after Heducation, Lose your inhibitions, take the bull by the hornz, and ride the powerful tidal wave of sound these guys have created.

Central Projection was originally formed by Tidal, Jay Le Roc, Kytel & Roeg Du Casq back in Summer 2004, in an effort to put on regular 'Deep + Progressive' drum 'n' bass nights in the Midlands. It was an off-shoot night by advection, fifth rise & launch pad artists. The intention was never to become promoters, but in effect they had to create a scene to play out at. This had resulted in putting on a string of successful nights towards the end of 2004 with Blame, MC DRS, Pariah & Pete Rann. Later CP were honoured to host their first residency @ Progression Sessions alongside Good Looking Records Crew. LTJ Bukem, MC Conrad in Birmingham November 2004. (Medicine Bar - Digbeth). A new Residency has now started thanks to Carl from Hotfoot, now running in it's 3rd year. In 2005 CP entered a different phase with the help of MC Smilee, bringing a voice presence to the CP Nights. Last year saw such artists like Nookie, Big Bud, Blu Mar Ten, Galaxi (USA) Qumulus, Pete Rann & Local Boys Pariah; play in Birmingham at (Oc's Bar, digbeth)
Catch them at HEDUCATION and on the System Check Show on New Style Radio 98.7FM. (Every Fortnight 10PM-12AM) Hosted by Tidal & Jay Le Roc. Or check http://www.myspace.com/centralprojection for more info.

NOOKIE (STRICTLY DIGITAL)
Undoubtedly one of the leading lights in the Drum & Bass scene, Nookie, aka Cloud Nine/Second Vision/New Balance (along with Blame), is London/Herts DJ/producer/artist/remixer Gavin Cheung. Already into pirate radio, electro and hip hop, as well as jazz funk, while still a school boy, Gavin served his musical apprenticeship working in Soho's Red Records (which later became Unity Records). Not only did he get to meet many important people in the industry, but managed to establish himself as a reputable DJ. After producing a few bedroom mixes/demos for his hip-hop group 'Illegal Pressure', Gavin went on to study computer technology at college. “I’ve always been quite a technically minded person and my time in college helped me understand more the computer aided side of things, that has definitely helped me with my music production”. He then spent many years building and setting up his own home studio. Citing many musical influences he says: "Personally, I'm into good music full stop, whether it be hip-hop, soul, house etc. Music is about feeling and I try to reflect that in my music, be it when I'm playing out or in the studio, in my opinion there’s only two types of music, good and bad”.

PARIAH (GOOD LOOKING RECORDS)
Pariah were spawned from the dark years of the mid 90's. Having been listening to dance music from the late 80's, you know, summer of love and all that! …getting disillusioned with what they were hearing during the mid 90's, they decided to see if they could do any better themselves! The Pariah studio was set up in 1997, after much saving and hard work. They spent the next 12 months getting to know their equipment, enabling them to carve their own sound. The next thing Pariah did was to expand further and start sending out their music. Their first break came when they won a demo competition in 'Muzik' magazine which led to them getting noticed. They were approached by several people which led to them getting the break they needed. Firstly and most importantly, Trixsta from the then very reputable imprint 'Urban Flavour', signed up two tracks called 'Reprogram' and 'Aqueous'. This being Pariah's first 12" release became an underground anthem being played all around the globe by people like Blame, Doc Scott, Dr S Gachet, DJ Lee and many more. Pariah have always held Trixsta in high esteem for giving them their first push into the drum n bass scene. From here, Pariah went on to releasing many tracks on some of the scene's top labels. Their next release came courtesy of Terry Wilson’s 'Funk 21' label in conjunction with 'Partisan'. They had two tracks on the 'Funk 21 Album', they were also asked to do the mix cd as well! From there, Pariah went on to build a quality catalogue of releases. One relationship that the lads are most proud of is that of label boss and Dj, Blame. Pariah have had many tracks released on 720 degrees including three tracks on the mighty 'Two Revolutions' compilation album. From there, they continued their journey through drum n bass land and found themselves working with the master himself, 'LTJ Bukem', which still continues today. Pariah were offered a major deal with 'Good Looking' but after much deliberation, decided to turn it down. The reason for this was that the boys thought that they could not justify the offer of such a deal due to the amount of work involved. The Pariah boys still all work full time which doesn’t really leave a lot of time for them to be Dj'ing all over the world and also working on their music at the same time! They also wanted to be able explore different avenues within such a varied genre of music, luckily for them though, they are still producing music for 'Bukem' and his label and hope that it will continue, who knows, maybe they will sign one day if the offer is still there in the future! With many interesting and varied projects in the pipeline working with some of the scene's most reputable labels, Pariah's future looks bright! With them continuing to expand their studio set-up and DJing around the country, Pariah invite all of their followers along for a futuristic and soulful ride!
