Third3ye - On3ness Album Review

24 Feb 2014 // A review by Dilemma

Third3ye is a collective of like-minded hip hop artists coming together to produce a new-wave, spiritual sound.

The music they make exudes a naturalist vibe over 15 tracks that takes the listener on a philosophic journey through mystical and musical vibrations.

Another variation on contemporary hip hop music in NZ. I guess the best way to describe this album is rustic and organic. The lyrics and beats compliment each other nicely. My favourite track was Aura the sixth track which had a sweet harmony floating in the background which kicked off more lighter sweet tracks. Throw in some Te Reo mixed through some dense raps and you have a pretty full album. 

An acquired taste, but give it a try online http://third3ye.bandcamp.com/album/on3ness

 

About Third3ye

Third3ye represents a collective of like-minded artists, coming together to produce a spiritually-conscious form of Hip Hop all the way from sunny Aotearoa. The Third3ye whanau is made-up by Auckland MCs Melodownz and Angelo King.

As a collective the crew is comfortable experimenting with new sounds and theories, and pushing messages of philosophy, enlightenment, and higher consciousness - whether it be from a picturesque backdrop in Queenstown, or the backstreets of Avondale. Hip-Hop is deeply rooted here in Aotearoa, and has been a way of life for the crew since day one. Third3ye aims to take it down a new spiritual bush track.

Janine and the Mixtape - EP Review: XX
22 Jun 2015 // by Dilemma
2013 was a big year, Lorde released her first EP but she wasn’t our only Singer/Songwriter that got international acclaim that year, there was also Janine Foster otherwise known as Janine and The Mixtape. Described as an electrifying performer that has developed her own unique combination of pop, indie, R&B, and hip hop.

She has won the Best Female DNB MC award a few times (3) and has just released her new album Wolves, which she describes as “electronic soul and gangsta jazz"!

Jayson Norris - Save My Soul EP Review
16 May 2014 // by Dilemma
New from Jayson Norris is the Save My Soul EP as part of NZ Music Month. If you are a fan of Kora style rock or Tiki Taane melodies then you will love this five-song EP, cleverly incorporating roots and the groove of mainstream guitar rock’n’soul to blur genres.

Estère - Estere Album Review
10 May 2014 // by Dilemma
Released as a free download via Bandcamp the debut EP from Wellington singer/songwriter/beatmaker/producer Estere is definitely unique in the NZ music scene. Self-described as “just a girl with an MPC” Estere works her equipment and the product is individualistic, raw and worthy of a listen this NZ Music Month.
