MONKEYBOXING.COM – Top 10 Albums 2013

What can I say? 2013 was big for boom-bap hip-hop and retro funk and soul. N.B. This chart is created from from a highly complex algorithm derived from how often shit gets played on the MB sound system. 1. Deltron 3030 – Deltron Event 2 Despite the odd dodgy skit, the second coming of Deltron 3030 was still epic…READ FULL POST @ MONKEYBOXING.COM

DJ FORMAT & PHILL MOST CHILL: The Foremost (2013)

No time for messing about – the new DJ Format & Phill Most Chill LP The Foremost is even more nearly upon us than it was last time MB reported that the new DJ Format & Phill Most Chill LP The Foremost was nearly upon us. And that time was just over a week ago when the only audio available was an album sampler video plus the humble Juno player. No worries though since a complete copy of the LP was soon …READ FULL POST @ MONKEYBOXING.COM

DJ FORMAT & PHILL MOST CHILL: ‘The Foremost’ album sampler video (2013)

Blimey – it seems like little more than year since the last DJ Format LP. But then maybe that’s because it is only little more than a year since the last DJ Format LP – 2012′s Statement Of Intent. Not that The Foremost is just a DJ Format LP you understand, for our man brings this one to you in the company of 80s old school original NYC emcee Phill Most Chill – hence the title ‘Foremost.’ PMC has been pretty much omnipresent in the last twelve months featuring on drops from Bankrupt …READ FULL POST @ MONKEYBOXING.COM

MR JASON: Mr Jason Has A Posse (2012) video + Son Of Frankensteez EP

Mr Jason’s Mr Jason’s Got A Posse featured on his Frankensteez LP collaboration from last year and features in remix format (courtesy of – er – DJ Format) on the Son Of Frankensteez EP – due any day. By definition, a ‘posse cut’ is four or more rappers on a ‘joint’ although clearly for Mr Jason any track with a mere four rappers is some sort of ‘pussy’ cut. Why? Because the Porn Theater Ushers dj/ producer co-opts no fewer than twenty-six underground emcee mates (including Akrobatik, Esoteric, Dizzy Dustin, Will C and, of course, his …READ FULL POST @ MONKEYBOXING.COM

DJ FORMAT & THE SIMONSOUND: ‘Statement Of Intent’ tour video (2012)

It seems, Ugly Duckling weren’t the only ones packing a video camera on their last tour since here’s DJ Format and his homie The Simonsound with their Statement Of Intent tour video. Apparently the Format camp had access to superior battery life though since while UD were only able to muster enough footage to last the length of a single teensy song, this weighs in at a hip-hop-umentous one hour three minutes. The director’s cut of Lawrence Of Arabia to UD’s episode of Roadrunner, if you will. Expect original audio and visual from venues READ FULL POST @ MONKEYBOXING.COM

DJ FORMAT feat. THE GOOD PEOPLE: Marisco (2012)

This year’s U.S. emcee go-tos for the discerning UK beatmaker – The Good People (a.k.a. Emskee and Saint) – make another appearance on arguably the beefiest UK boom-bap beat this year in a tribute to what is apparently the UK’s longest-running club – Woolacombe’s Marisco. That’ll be the second big-up this summer for the vast urban sprawl of Woolacombe involving The Good People…READ FULL POST @ MONKEYBOXING.COM

DJ FORMAT: New LP ‘Statement Of Intent’ due March (2012) + promo video
DJ Format’s back hurrah! And it doesn’t look like he’s going to be taking any prisoners with his first full length LP since 2005’s If You Can’t Join ‘Em…Beat ‘Em. How long!? Yeah, I know - tell me about it. Statement Of Intent is due for a March release and looks all set to feature the usual fat-funky boom-bap business (plus a bit of breaks and electro) with guest turns from underground fire-spitter Sureshot La Rock (who appeared on Format’s Mr DJ EP last year, ‘core Bostonian emcee Mr Lif, and a brace of legendary rappers nearly as famous for their absences from the scene as they are for their actual output: newly-defrosted-from-cryogenic-storage-in-the-eighties Phill Most Chill and professional ‘difficult’-third-album-dodger Edan.
