Syntax ‘Open Mic Night’ (Cam Bluff remix)

Don’t go through the trouble of trawling through that Triple J podcast we linked you to the other day. (Although you can if you really want to).

This is far more to the point.

The Musical (Cam Bluff remix edition) out soon.

Bright Young Things video: sneak peek

Here’s the first glimpse of the new Bright Young Things video for ‘Rotations’, dropping in April.

Shot in Melbourne by Full Clip, who you might remember from the recent Syntax video ‘Fact Not Faction’ or indeed Trem’s comeback single ‘Omega Man’. A bit of a change of pace for the boys!

‘Rotations’ will be popping up on iTunes very shortly; for updates, make sure you’re signed up to the Bright Young Things email list.

Video: 360 x Dylan Lewis NOVA interview

We told you about the Dylan Lewis interview for Nova FM, now here’s the video.

Dylan is a good egg and attempts to rhyme the whole damn interview. Gives me a lot of wood.

New music: 360 ‘Miracle In A Costume’ (snippet)

360 hit 30,000 Facebook fans this week. To celebrate, he’s hit his FB followers – and everyone else – with a snippet of the gorgeous ‘Miracle In A Costume’ from his forthcoming album Falling & Flying (out 13 May).

This track was produced by the homie M-Phazes and features the incredible vocals of Melbourne up & comer Gossling.

Syntax is a hater

Talk about a mad rapper. The homie Syntax is seething, popping off shots at all the emcees who have wronged his eardrums with their toxic tunes – and you can read all about it over at his 10-part guest blog series for Peak Street, Rappers Who Get The Bozack.

So far Kid Cudi, Lupe Fiasco, wrestla-ternt-rappa John Cena and Cali Swag District (who?) have been on the receiving end of his venom … who will be next?

Mixtape: Purpose – If The City Had A Voice Pt. 2
