" High Focus Records is delighted to announce the return of Verbz & Mr Slipz on ‘The Way Fwd’, the anticipated full-length follow up to their 2020 LP ‘Radio Waves’.
An album fuelled by evolution, ‘The Way Fwd’ pays respect to the signature sonics that are synonymous with the duo; the dust laden, sample driven boom bap energies are present throughout, with a greater focus on arrangement, form and musicality this time around.
Sourcing from the many adventures both Verbz & Slipz have been on in the five years separating the 2xLPs; experiments across genres and BPMs informing the direction of travel before they completed the circle, ‘The Way Fwd’ combines new spirit with a dizzying timelessness; Slipz’ sophisticated brushstrokes informing Verbz’ penmanship across 12-tracks of true introspection.
With features from Cappo, Cam Thomas and additional vocals from India Shan, ‘The Way Fwd’ has all the makings of a classic release, especially if it ends up being Verbz & Mr Slipz’ last collaborative contribution to the genre…" - courtesy of High Focus Records
French producers Alcynoos & Parental (de Kalhex) team up with Norwegian beatmaker Type.Raw (Loop.Holes) to drop a musical project full of Jazzy hip-hop instrumentals which aims to recapture the essence of the sound they grew up and fell in love with. "The majority of the songs consist of the signature sounds these producers are known for: Jazzy hip hop instrumentals, however many of them also have a range of soundscapes and influences from a wide range of genres, seamlessly blending classic boom bap, jazz, soul and modern hip hop together to form a unique sound. - courtesy of Loop.Holes"
