Welcome to the bewitching and enchanting fictional world of UNKLE HO, and his wonderful second album
æCircus MaximusÆ. It follows on from his lauded debut æRoads to RomaÆ, acclaimed by ROLLING STONE as
ôeasily the best Elefant Traks release yet.ö
æCircus MaximusÆ is set in rollicking speakeasies and celebrated in the dank underbelly of oldtime 2007.
Vivacious maidens run wild with youthful rogues who connive against heartless lawmakers where rule of
prohibition threatens love, life and liberation.
Unkle Ho transports us to another time, conducting samples, orchestrating live double bass, clarinets,
harps and violin in clandestine arrangements that play out in side alleys of towns - where hip hop governs
the streets.
Opening his arms to ancient Asia, Eastern Europe, the Caribbean and the Middle East, this inner-western
Sydney lad had to travel to China to tie it all together.
Perhaps best known as producer and founding mem ber for unpredictable hip hop crew THE HERD, Unkle
Ho produced, mixed and designed the artwork for æCircus MaximusÆ. Herd bandmate, and captivating
chanteuse, JANE TYRRELL features on ôBally Broadö, whilst twisted bohemian troubadour
MIKELANGELO, is a kindred gypsy spirit in ôOn My Way Homeö
Playful with a suggestion of something sinister: its fresh blood in music hall regalia, coming to take over the
party.
