Bajka – Just the Truth

4 Feb

Bajka is the people’s voice, searching for the truth in a confusing reality where people don’t ask right questions but want the right answers.
But let’s take it about 365 days ago-

Rejoicer moves to Berlin to start a new life, little does he know he is about to meet Bajka, a strong woman with an even stronger voice who is on the look out for fresh producers.
2 minutes is all it took for both to realize it was a heaven made match, Rejoicer’s ambient yet powerfull synths and Bajka’s mesmerizing, almost hypnotic voice, half rapping half preaching for a bright new world, fit together perfectly, pushing the boundaries of soul music into new soundscapes.

Table Knights – Gutter Cats

14 Jan

At a time when no one works strictly with MPC’s anymore, we have put out for you a pure, hardware-only, true-school, Hip Hop beat album.

A few years ago St. Svenson & MC Ayatolla, two longtime friends who had been messing around with MPC’s and mic’s ever since, have put together a compilation album of beats and rhymes, “Sounds of Victory”, which instantly became a local classic. 5 years have passed and the beats kept piling up in endless memory cards laying around Svenson’s room.
One clear afternoon, MC Ayatolla went through all the beats that were laying around and picked the chosen few to represent the works of 5 years of Table Knights.

The results are right here – 30 minutes of beats that will sock your knocks out.

Radixx – Raamses

10 Dec

Radixx had always said that without electronic music and the ever-developing technology, he would have not made what could nowadays be called music. We guess that these are the times of Radixx.
Some people cry about the analogue days, some people praise the new technologies that allow more artist to express their thoughts and emotions.

We’re not quite sure about the meaning of the name Raamses, and either does Radixx. Probably high doses of Sun Ra and SG-1 as a child made the connection between Egyptian Pharoas, music and electronics. He did say something about a series albums named after Egyptian Pharoas “Mainly because the names are def unique, like the ish I’m trying to put out”.

This is Radixx’s third release on Raw Tapes.

Soon available on iTunes, Juno, etc

Mad Steve – No 2: The Threshold of Liberty

7 Nov

Mad Steve - No 2: The Threshold of Liberty

Following the success of Mad Steve’s 1st album – “No”, comes the MC friendly, intelligent, totally emotionless – “No 2: The Threshold of Liberty”.

Contrary to the last release, which was more of a collection of beats, this is a much more wrapped up album with a certain concept behind it. In this album Mad Steve manages to capture a very vivid and warm image, yet keeping the instruments pretty minimal – saying no to exaggerated texturing and excessive emotions. That’s Mad Steve for you – trying to hide his emotions.

If you’re an MC, you’re probably going to love this album.
If you hate music, well, you’ll probably love this too.
Actually we can’t think of people who might not like this album…maybe deaf people.

All tracks produced and mixed by: Mad Steve

Mastered by: Bunny on Acid

Cover by: Raw Sun

Executive Producer: Osbourne Green

Citizen Kane – B.A.B.O.B

20 Oct

Citizen Kane - B.A.B.O.B

Back in 2010, this album was actually supposed to be a mere beat tape consisting of about 8 beats, just to let the people listen to some music by the Citizen.

But fact is, Kane is one hell of a perfectionist. Not a single frequency slips his ears, not a single hit slips the groove.
This means deadline postponing, but this ultimately means one hell of an album, debut, for Citizen Kane.

Please help yourself with some space synths, soulful swing and perfect sound.

Open SRC – Wood

30 Jun

After working together as a duo for the last 4 years, Rejoicer and Sinez had decided to finally put together an album consisting of their best beats as Open SRC.

A lot of beats were mere sketches or unfinished, mostly because, all though close friends, they both have a different mindset and attitude. That forced them to find common grounds, which at points seemed to be too experimental or, on the other hand, too basic (for them).

Their debute album, “Wood”, tries to unite those beats which represent the perfect collision between the two minds, creating soulful & energetic beats, which are simply on-point.

Rejoicer – Anti Phlegmatic EP

22 May

“… the more I listen to this EP, the more I forget why I actually made it or in what phase in life I was. One thing I do remember is that I wanted to make something dark and light, full of joy and sadness, heavy and full of air at the same time.
I made many many beats at the old raw tapes studios and this is somehow the climax-beats of that point in time…”

After being played in countless parties, events and radio shows “Rejoicer – Anti Phlegmatic EP” is now finally out
