International Hip Hop Vinyl 315 Items

B.O.L.T. Warhead was one of the pioneers in the Norwegian hip hop scene. They grew out of the A-Team crew, and took their music in a rougher and more militant direction. The peace signs and positivity of the A-Team was replaced by black military pants and doomsday poetry. The Re-Enforcement was the only album released by B.O.L.T. Warhead, and it is considered a classic in britcore circles nevertheless, with the CD and the tape going for more than 100 EUR. Now it is available on vinyl for the first time.

Recorded at Avantdale Bowling Club’s sold out headline date at Auckland’s iconic Powerstation in August 2019 – the album includes extended live versions of four tracks from his self-titled debut album – awarded the 2019 Taite Music Prize and Album of the Year at the 2019 Vodafone New Zealand Music Awards – plus To Live and Die in Ad.

Poly Dance Theatre presents its new show: Warning: killer track! Let's start with side A: an international adventure. Backstage, we meet up with rico OBF, who has recorded MC Waraba, the Malian singer and pioneer of the "Balani show" for his forthcoming album on Blanc Manioc Records, at the dubquake studio. Still backstage, we come across androo, the little pictureditor hanging around, who offers to do a re-interpretation by re-creating a riddim from the vocal.

So here's poet rapper MC Waraba, singing in Bambara and French, telling us a story about a girl's difficult choices over a riddim made in androo. The result is a strange, solid, bewitching and melancholy blend of dub, wave and drill trap music. The references are many and scattered, as always with androo (just take a look at his bedroom). After the pop-epic poem, dub mix versions unfold, from dub vocal, with reminiscence of the delay-cut poem, to deep, robust instrumental straight.

B side: Warning: killer track again! Warning: another kind of Wave-dub-trap. Warning: Identity is theft. Warning: Sound system style: 4 parts! Here, starting with a badly cut sample (against American transparency! long live Brecht!), we wander through a heavy chorus-stepper-weird-club-dub, ranging from the most pop to the most ruff, via the most experimental to the deepest. 4 episodes. One season. To see again and again. To play again and again (if need be). 4 episodes (Warning again: Sound system style: 4 parts!) A series of versions in which the dub mix experiments and pushes the track to its limits.

Una Jauria Llamada Ernesto(a Wolfpack called Ernesto)Original Motion Picture SoundtrackDirector Everardo GonzalezMusic by Andrés Sánchez Maher, Haxah, Konk ReyesLabel Plaza Mayor Company LtdCombines true stories to create its titular character, and parallels with the manufacturing of a gun. The two stories’ convergent paths twits in a double helix of violence which leaves one person dead by firearms every 41 minutes.This score is the voice they wanted us to hear. It's the sophistication of the street and the gang. A mixture in which space was given to two young men who belonged to the packs of Mexico City: Haxah, Konk Reyes and the extraordinary experience of Andrés Sánchez, who managed to articulate a sound discourse as a gateway to the world of violence, the need for revenge but also to that of repentance and the desire to return to a starting point when everything could be avoided.Enjoy this atmosphere and let's try together to break the stigma that surrounds our Latin American children.Everardo González - Director
