MH-211 Curse Ov Dialect - Lost In The Real Sky  Not content with recycling the same old beats and rhymes, Curse Ov Dialect reach for the next level by reinterpreting sounds from all eras and arenas into unique sonic collages with a hyper edge and extreme bounce. Their Mush debut, Lost In The Real Sky is an eighteen track introduction to their sound. Blending political raps written with the skill of a multi-cultural Public Enemy, a punk-rock aesthetic, and production that balances melodic samples and classic drums with world class turntablism, their focus is clearly on music as avant-garde hip-hop opera. From the playful opening snaps of "Baby How?" through the old world groove of "Multicultural Markets" to the darkness of "Water Thicker Than Blood," Lost In The Real Sky is an impressive debut from a unique and challenging new group. |

| Lost in the Real Sky puts Australia on the hip-hop map with a polyglot bang. Taking fellow Oz group, The Avalanches' playful sampledelic spirit to much stranger places, Curse ov Dialect's five core emcees/producers often cram more ideas into one track than many artists muster in their entire careers. Lost in the Real Sky contains a dizzying range of musical styles, as well as multiple layers of ill subliminals; imagine the Bomb Squad's intricately crafted chaos informed by Nonesuch's Explorer Series with surrealism. The disc's panoply of conscious rappers with odd flows further spices the global melting pot. Lost in the Real Sky is true next level shit. - XLR8R |
