- Product Info -

Revisiting a genre that not only spawned into many of today’s musical formations, the production outfit known as The DigiMunstaz produces and release their UK Garage influenced album entitled RspBrry. 

Created as a reminiscent of the Ibiza era, they hope this album sparks the joyful memories of sun, sea and club nights that once dominated the bars. 

Consisting of the production collaboration between M Giggy & Madman the Greatest, they now are official known as The DigiMunstaz.

Remaining within the earlier era of UK Garage, they bring an analogue warm flavour of chopped instrumentation, synths and sub bass to 15 tracks.  Keeping the pace steady and relaxed between the 130bpm, each composition is treated and constructed as songs instead of simple loops to develop the vibes of nightlife. 

Rspbrry follows on from their original album ‘The Transmission’ to which they didn’t have an official group name.  Bedazzled twice is lifted and reproduced as a symbolisation of that album. 

The vocals featured on this collection are samples from Cecil Foster and MC Blenda who have made enormous contributions to Madman the Greatest’s creative works outside of this project.

- Product Info -

Delivering his official double dose of verbal warfare, the beat-maker brings a two-part collection of recordings which were solely and exclusively created at the GR8-1 Music Lab. 

 

Part 1 of the collection features guest vocals from long time collaborators Ruff MP & Cecil Foster.  This is what he considers his lyrical showcase based on the perception of a determined and undeterred MC.  

 

Mainly driven in the direction of Alternative Hip Hop, he combines the sounds of synthesizers with raw boom bap drums chopped in his signature style of stomping kicks and snapping snares.  

 

Adding inspiration from the culture he grew up in, he symbolises his love for reggae and dancehall culture by creating two records purposely as a tribute.   ‘Moving on me’ and ‘Back it on me’ brings out his youthful experiences of being around Jamaican and Caribbean sounds that was played constantly in his household by both his parents.

 

Part 2 is what he considers his lyrical showcase based on the perception of his natural male persona.   Putting aside his competitive and defensive ego, the artist wanted to deliver a variety of topics that displayed his human side.   Self-progression, music admiration and the old time favourite subject of Love can be found through this 17 self-produced track collection.

 

Unlike Part 1, he explores into other areas of sound taking inspiration from Latin Music; Afrobeats; Classical and Electronica as he didn’t want to become a one-dimensional MC and knows that love is an area not many can conquer without over or under selling sex. Mr FX is the only collaborator on this collection featuring on two recordings, Hip Hop Rebel & MF.

 

Raw beats & an unapologetic flow makes the artists go full throttle over 15 self-built tracks.

 

*** The edited version contains ‘Touch you Again’ instead of MF.

- Product Info -

A journey is worth taking is one made without plans.  So for the instrumentalist, Madman the Greatest was no stranger to exploring through his mind of creative ideas.  

What makes this unique is exhibition of the raw craft that make up his trademark sound.  As expected, the energy flourishes across the speakers of his times perfecting his instrumentations with orchestral sounds, hip hop drums and filtered bass.

At the time of 95bpm beats, the attitude of being alternative began from his admiration for the Steinberg Cubase software. 

Inspired heavily by Erick Sermon; DJ Scratch and Trackmasters, the artist wanted to make music that represents him as an individual creator. 

Panned over 3 Volumes (making this 46 tracks), you may not like everything but you will understand the how far he has developed through his creative journey.

When Madman the Greatest & M Giggy decided to create an EDM album, what they imagined is not what they got.  Whilst they was aiming for a commercial release, they created a bass driven monster that has become the foundation album for the! No Bling. Just Bang! Division. 

Inspired by UK Garage and what later becomes Grime, this is a very energetic alternative to the infectious sound that dominated the late 90s.

Many of the tracks come for their original collection called The Transmission which was very forward in time.  Tracks like Bedazzled and Boom Selection featuring Linniman really pushed the limitation of their creative ideas. 

The combination that was just a simple idea has become the blue print to the labels approach to EDM/house music.
