Release Notes:
Having cut his teeth as an MC on the live circuit with a
succession of heavyweight players including Grooverider, Shy
FX and most notably Scratch Perverts and Killa Kela, with whom
he toured the world supporting the likes of Justin Timberlake,
NERD, Busta Rhymes, Recman and Outkast, Trip recently returned
to the UK and began work on his own genre splicing album
'ShortCuts', alongside esteemed producer Lane Thomas
(Ladytron, Mark Rae, Simian.) River Phoenix, the album's lead
single, chronicles the exquisite highs and despairing lows of
our protagonist's first date. From the cocky nervousness of
splashing on the Ralph Lauren and flirting over food, to her
untimely dicovery that River Phoenix has died ending all hope
of their first kiss. River Phoenix's bittersweet narractive,
underpinned by pumping bass, driving beats and a sublime lead
riff, opens the door to Trip's kaleidoscopic domain where the
minutar of life is brought into incisive focus.
