Once again, One S.P teams up with his pals, Asazi space funk explosion (find them on facebook or bandcamp), to deliver a spaced out version of a tune called “style libre” in a packed edinburgh venue (Stramach) . tune available on his album “refugie poetique”
Fun times as my friend ewan and I decided to set up my decks into is van. Ewan is like the scottish mac gyver .
He installed a long piece of wood plank inside the van, using pull bungee cords, just at the right height for me to dj comfortably. I just had enough space for two decks , the mixer and a cd deck. Plus we had all the tools handy in the van , as ewan uses it for his work. With the help of Anslem (bibi’s son) we placed the speakers on the van’s roof, and there you go…bombastic sound system ! no neighbours !
So long to Bibi, Benny, Anslem , Justus and Joanna , a.k.a “momo”. Will come and visit in Munich sometimes soon.
leaving party of german friends bibi and benny. july 17.
Asthmatic Astronaut NEW ALBUM “This is not pop” IS OUT TODAY. Please check it out , it’s dope. One s.p features on track 19 “bring da madness”
“Scotland is not a prominent presence in the hip hop world, but after several listens to this record I am starting to think that might change”
– Rhyme Junkie
“Asthmatic Astronaut has assembled an absolute beast of an album; 19 MCs bring their A-game and a range of styles, while G proves that he is an absolutely virtuosic producer. From sun-drenched head-nodders to bass lines that would give Milanese nightmares, G holds the whole thing together beautifully; each track is individual and unique but flow together as a coherent whole”
– Harlequinade
“It’s a true crafted album that, in the age of digital format, seems rare and like a carefully curated mixtape it plays best from start to finish”
– Dave D
Enjoy !!!
This is a few words from Ast Ast about our collaboration on that track:
#19 ONESP
What can be said about Scotland’s original French M.C aka Snoop Froggy Frog the man they call ONESP.
He came round one afternoon and I was playing a Jazz Fudge compilation and a Toastie Taylor track was playing and he says “Oh its Toastie I was in the studio with him when they recorded this track†And not only that but he I found out he was also on a track with New Flesh on one of the first BigDada 12†like the 3rd one!
We have played quite a few shows together over the years and he has hooked me up with some DJ gigs but this is the first track we have done together. And what a track it is too! It may be the last track but it makes you want to hit play all over again.
He always brings some crazy energy to the party. He even turned up with a load of records with acapella parts he wanted me to cut up at the end of the track.
So I’m super stoked to Have the one and only ONESP – BRING DA MADNESS for the album so Thanks Jean-Marc for getting involved
