MONKEY MARC --------------------------------------
Straight from the vaults of his underground Solar Powered shipping container studio
comes Melbourne’s bass master Monkeymarc. From his early beginnings with his party
political Sound System “Labrats” to his recent work with Roots Manuva (Ninja
Tune/Big Dada) on his latest album “4everevolution”, this soundbwoy has been busy
making waves across the globe. Sonically rugged he mashes up hip hop and dub inna
down under style like no other. His most recent work with Soom T for her Renegade
Masters label is already creating a tsunami of apocalyptic proportions.
He is best known for his production with Australian political hip hop punks Combat
Wombat, his brilliant solo album “As the Market Crashed” and has remixed such
artists as DJ Click, Gotan Project (Moonshine Sessions), The Herd, Joelistics and
many more. Marc has toured around the planet for the last 4 years playing at
festivals such as Fusion (Germany), Glade (UK), Zoro (Leipig) and Boom (Portugal).
Stay tuned - because the bass master is just getting warmed up!
OUTBACK MUSIC:
Being a nomad at heart, MonkeyMarc's passion for social change and music took
him far into the Australian outback over the last 7 years, where he made music
and
ran
workshops with aboriginal people in remote communities across Australia.
Within
this time he produced the Western Desert Mob Compilation (self released)
and a
range
of as yet unreleased material for aboriginal community archives.
The amazing "Red Sand Culture Volume 1" compilation, where the kids from the
community brilliantly rap in their
own native language, is available
for free
download HERE,
along with more
infos about this great project.
