Fat Freddy’s Drop last album – “Based on a True Story” – was a huge succes and went 8 times platinum. Not surprisingly their CD’s sold like hotcakes, because I can remember when it came out and I was blown away myself by their innovative sound. These New Zealand cats have such a unique sound which is best described by me as jazzy reggae with an occasional electronic twist. Thank god FFD is back with a brand new album called “Dr Boondigga And The Big BW” which will undoubtably be an equally great succes. The cherry on the cake is a song called “Big BW” which we made available for streaming. Nice artwork by Mr Otis Frizzell and don’t forget to buy the album HERE.

Big homie Kenny Fresh just hooked us up with some brand new Hawthorne Headhunters music and you gotta love it. For those who don’t know HH…the trio exists of Black SpadeI, CED (or Ced No) and Proh Mic.

The possitively sounding “Never Give Up” – which co-stars vocals from Coultrain - is an unreleased outtake from the same 2007 sessions that the group’s forthcoming debut EP was pulled from. This will be their very first release being put out by HVW8 on June 20th.

The soulful “Get Up!” has been in my top ten ‘on repeat’ tracks for a while now and “PCM” with Dam Funk is epic! Keep your ears out for a Fresh Selects mixtape from the Hunters before their EP drops. This should keep you satisfied untill then.
