"After setting up BeatsinProgress in 1997 with Rob Life many moons ago, Tufkut with his trusty Akais950 and stack of breaks, thought for the 20th anniversary it’d be worth making something special. So with a delay due to adding the extra ingredients, here is the ‘Keep on Diggin’ EP.
Alongside accomplished MC Chrome (DefTex, Chrome & Ill Inspired) for the title track, with a certified Remix by Producer extraordinaire SirBeansOBE (Parlour Talk, Transcript Carriers, MC Kelz) we have some auditory feasts for our music family.
Craig G (Juice Crew, Queensbridge Finest) laces ‘Kill the Nonsense’ rhyming with deadly intent; with an instant flip with a BIP remix too, in case you didn’t catch it the first time.
Percee P (Legendary Lyricist, Rhyme Inspector) fires off ‘Beastin’with his trademark delivery at battle speed and keyboards by Simon Vincent (DefTex, The Occasional Trio) to bring a flair to an rhythmic track designed to get the heads bopping.
A extra bonus track, is the unreleased ‘I Will Not Stop’ from Kashmere (KingKashmere, Strange U, the Iguana man) recorded at the time of his ‘Raw Styles’ records. Performed live with the Receptor records artists but never released on vinyl until now!
All of these tracks plus some select instrumentals are finally available through Burning Anger on beautiful vinyl.
The Artwork is also celebratory of BeatsinProgress reaching 20years.
Tufkut wanted something special and collaborative, so he asked Design friends to do their own versions of the BeatsinProgress logo.
Dan Lish designed the full colour front cover, using his signature style of intricate pen work.
The rear cover has Mark Bode with his characteristic style boldly above the artist credits.
To add the broadly talented Paul Subtwo, with his beautiful version of the logo on the label.
The whole package of Production, Musicians and design Artistry, we hope will be high on your list of collectables and provide some inflections of more to come.
All on limited vinyl released by Burning Anger it’s a timeless record – it won’t be around for long, so buy a copy …or two!. A celebration of our culture and Tufkuts devotion in bringing you something you’ll remember." - courtesy of Britcore Romance / Burning Anger
