-KIDKANEVIL is top dog at First Word Records, he has already released two critically acclaimed albums and is poised to release his third, ‘Basho Basho’, in January 2010.
-His super-tight beat programming and penchant for global sound sources have given him a characteristic style that is rooted in hip-hop but looks further afield for its emotional scope.
-True to form, his new album promises to challenge fans’ preconceptions and take them somewhere starker ..

-BUDDY PEACE's most notable efforts include the beats he produced on Buck 65’s “Dirtbike” trilogy, DJing for Prince Po on tour, and contributing remix work for labels like Warp Records, anticon and Needlework.
-His association with the Warp label often highlighted his appreciation of the label's electronic legacy, effortlessly blending in cuts from the most esoteric end of the beatmaking spectrum alongside elements more readily associated with Hip Hop.

-2ECOND CLASS CITIZEN has always been puppet master to quietly dramatic, doom-edged instrumentalism....he creates music which transcends a multitude of genres to distil a wholly immersive experience.
-"Ambient soundscapes to rival Shadow at his best" - Strictly Kev (Dj Food)
-Combining folk and world music with heavy but delightful drums and touching vocal samples, 2econd Class Citizen enters an amazing little, but definitely original musical world on his own, somewhere between what some years ago would have been called triphop and instrumental / downtempo experimental hiphop with the influence of jazz, rhythm'n'blues and rock music
