Two Syllables Vol 2

A 12 track jazz rap/hip-hop album (52m 23s) — released November 26th 2007 on First Word Records

First Word Records is proud to present Two syllables Vol 2, our second label compilation. Whilst many of the names will be familiar (Mike-L, kidkanevil, The Haggis Horns, Testament), we're also very excited about the newcomers to the label, in the shape of Eliphino & Shaheen. As with the first Two Syllables installment, there is true variety to the tracks, from the uptempo afrobeat of Haggis favourite Tribe Vibes to the glitchy downtempo hip hop of Fantastic 7. There are also two new tracks from kidkanevil in the shape of hip-hop groover Problems & Solutions (featuring Homecut's Testament) and the Scruff-style club smash Ill Connoisseur. Testament also appears on First Word boss (& DMC finalist) Andy H's wobbly bass cut Move & Progress - look out for new material from Test in 2008. 'An excellent label' Gilles Peterson, BBC Radio One 'This is the kind of music the world could do with more of' Blues & Soul Magazine 'Tell those other weak labels to go back to the lab and try again!' Charlie Dark, Blacktronica 'Musically Brilliant' The Guardian Radio support for First Word from Gilles Peterson, Benji B, Norman Jay, Mr. Scruff, Laurent Garnier, Steve Lamacq, Trevor Nelson, Jenna G, Craig Charles, Ras Kwame and more
