We Are The Prophets

3 mixes available November 2009.


It ain't easy livin' in Hackney, but armed only with a sharp tongue and a wit to match, Hue Jah Fink? delivers more than his 50 Cent's worth, cutting straight to the heart of copy-cat culture and mass urban apathy in this slice of charmingly British hip-hop. While the grimey beats, moody atmospherics and snarling pit-bull bassline may paint a dark picture of city life, Hue Jah's lyrics brighten the scene with vibrant splashes of colourful humour and hopeful insight in an undisguised west-country twang. Refusing to subscribe to mainstream hip-hop stereotypes (well except in jest!), this is definitely not music to pose around to. However 'We are the Prophets' will make you smile as well as dance.. 'The Streets' will never be safe again!

: We are the Prophets (Maztek DNB Remix)

Rome's rugged DNB mercenary Maztek (Subculture, Tilt, Basswerk) heads up the stealth mission behind enemy lines.
After a quick visit to Hue Jah Fink?'s munitions dump, Maztek develops his own terrifying technology, packing round after round of armour-piercing breaks and biological-bass weapons. He certainly takes no prisoners on the dancefloor with this tactical masterpiece, assaulting the Neurofunk militia head-on but also taking out key Jump-Up targets along the way.
Maztek drops the bomb on the enemy HQ utilizing a sick half-time breakdown whilst Hue Jah Fink? sticks his sharp-tongue bayonet into the remaining survivors. Then, it's back home for tea and medals!

: We are the Prophets (Blackmass Plastics & Hue Jah Fink?'s Tag-Team Rumble)

Let's get ready to RUMBLE...... In the red corner, underground rave veteran Blackmass Plastics (Rag and Bone, Combat Recordings, Thorn Industries) teams up with Hue Jah Fink? to cause head-wreckin' havoc to their sworn enemies Jake 'Generic Dubstep' Roberts and Hulk 'Tedious Presets' Hogan in this championship bout.
Blackmass softens 'em up with his classic 'electro-stab' battery and follows with a trademark 'half-step neck-breaker'. With Jake on the deck, Hue Jah is tagged in to deliver his vicious 'Virus thunder-grip' while Mr. Plastics dishes out the punishing blows with chest-pounding kicks and head-slapping snares.
Will Hulk's coach get the towel in the ring before Blackmass comes in off the ropes to slam 'em to the matt for the last time?

The Label

The digital world, the 0's and 1's that recreate our realities are just a trick. It's not a real thing, just a representation of what's real. But within this 'fake' retelling of the stories of our life, there lies an intangible depth, a magic somewhere between the last zero and the next one. This is a label for people that have a taste for the unexpected, that want to travel and cross borders, and that refuse to be blinkered.
