As mega-plexes buckle under on onslaught of over-branded superheroes this summer, there's one heroic team-up that beats them all: Slimkid3 & DJ Nu-Mark!
With the Delicious Vinyl release of their album-length eponymous collaboration, the legendary Pharcyde MC and Jurassic 5 DJ/producer have created a soulful Hip-Hop soundtrack for the coming months and beyond.
Ever since his time as a founding member of The Pharcyde, Slimkid3 has stood out for his relationship raps, both warm-hearted and cooly observant. As an innovative member of Jurassic 5, DJ Nu-Mark has long propelled golden era sounds into the future.
"Ding ding! True school is in session!" trumpeted okayplayer.com when Tre & Nu-Mark released their freebie EP Another Day, Another Dollar in 2011. The duo knew they were onto something good, and re-upped to create new music.
The new album's standout tracks include "Bouillon" featuring Del and Murs, "King" featuring
Diamond D, reggae-fueled summer jam "Bom Bom Fiya", and "I Know, Didn't I" a savvy flip of Darondo's soul classic.
Single releases from the album will come on 45rpm vinyl 7-inch format.
Slimkid3 & DJ Nu-Mark will be performing together at The Duchess on Monday 2nd February.
See you there!
SLIMKID3
Slimkid3 (born Tre Hardson) first introduced himself to the world as part of the legendary hip-hop quartet The Pharcyde, dazzling crowds worldwide with their singular blend of freaky humor, far-out lyrical imagery, and jazz-laden beats.
The fresh-faced South Central natives ushered in a golden era of hip-hop with such timeless classics as "Passin' Me By" and "Ya Mama"-and unwittingly defined the sound of a generation. Their critically acclaimed debut album, Bizarre Ride II: The Pharcyde, released in 1993, would go on to be certified Gold and later quoted by Kanye West as his favorite hip-hop album of all time.
DJ NU MARK (JURASSIC 5)
Nu-Mark began DJing at the age of 13 in Los Angeles. Over the last two decades, he has amassed an immense collection of rare records from around the world. Nu-Mark's refined music production and live showmanship regard him as one of the most innovative DJ's in music culture.
As a original member of the critically acclaimed, gold-selling Hip-Hop outfit, Jurassic 5, DJ Nu-Mark graced the group with precision production and cutting edge stage routines. Best known for his production on the raw anthem "What's Golden" such creativity only hinted at his imagination since Jurassic 5's breakup in 2006. In 2013, J5 reunited with a staggering performance at Coachella which featured a gigantic turntable designed and manipulated by Nu-Mark
