Tzusan - C.Y.$.L (Official Video)



"C.Y.$.L", the latest single to drop from impending Skoop Records release "The Teriyaki Tape", by surreal-edged lyricist CRPNTR and piff wizard royalty Tzusan, is an eerie stomper accompanied with low budget horror-flick visuals straight out the blair witch project. Tzusan's bars and production blend seamlessly into a jerky, minimal, percussive soundscape of untold mystery and thundering bass tones.

Watch out for "The Teriyaki Tape" dropping 17/11/17 on Skoop.

CRPNTR X TZUSAN - Horse [HD Video]



"Horse" is the first single taken from CRPNTR x TZUSAN's upcoming release, "The Teriyaki Tape". Out 17/11/17 on Skoop Records.

A taste of what to expect from the project, "Horse" is dripping with melancholy melodies and infused with CRPNTR's distinct style of strangely depressing poetic surrealism. Tzusan's subdued production sets a bleak tone and effortlessly ties the track together with a washed-out, futuristic UK sound guaranteed to be in heavy rotation on a soundsystem near you very shortly...

The first video form Papillion's forthcoming album, "D£4D M4N$ RUBB£R C1TY" dropping 25/09/17 on Skoop. Recorded over a crazy year in Akron, Ohio and Edinburgh, Scotland, the album is a journey of drug fuelled carnage and subsequent self-discovery oozing with dirty basslines and eerie, atmospheric noises topped of with glittering synths and trill hi-hats.

Fragments EP by Ashtronomik


 ‘Fragmented EP’ is Ash’s first solo released project both as an emcee and as a producer where he goes in depth about very personal matters in his life in the space of only a few tracks. He uses storytelling and lyrical skill to provide background to some of the things that has shaped him thus far. It is mainly jazz-influenced with an old-school vibe in order to portray a chapter that has been left behind and is definitely the start of more music to follow.
