Event Details

Chasm approaches beats like a learned artist with a brush, building on classic principles to create evolutionary new music. The collection of beats chosen for the album vary from old to new, moving through down tempo, blunted soul, up-tempo funk, and reggae. Hau Latukefu, MC for Australian pioneer hip hop duo, Koolism. Radio presenter for The triple j Hip Hop Show, Host of Hauie TV.

..... He is Chasm, Sydney-based producer-extraordinaire who made his mark in 2008 with the Triple J feature album debut Beyond The Beat Tape. She is Melbourne-by-way-of-Ghanas Vida-Sunshyne, and the enigmatic voice featured on both Beyond The Beat Tape and Astronomy Class Pursuit of Happiness. Together they are an electric collaboration of musical talent; one half behind the boards, creating the template for a limitless sonic foundation. The other, centre stage; creating the connection between performer and listener. .... The pair have created Move, the brand new album that traverses the global spectrum of soul, reggae, and hip hop. It is a combination of styles and performances that raises the bar for Australian music. For Chasm, his latest continues the tireless legacy of work forged with countless production credits (working with labelmates Dialectrix and Skryptcha as well as Astronomy Class) and a critically acclaimed album of his own. For Vida-Sunshyne (who raised her live profile by sharing the stage with the likes of Burning Spear, Ziggy Marley, and Horace Andy) this is the next big step for one of Australias burgeoning talents after spending the last year touring the world with the Mista Savona Band. .... The collaboration results in breathtaking work from two talented individuals; music that any fan can truly appreciate regardless of genre or interest. It is a union both gracious and cultured, and a connection
