- Realize (producer, vinyl DJ)
- Kick Back (producer)






Blunted Astronaut Records & DSC present:

Propo'88 & Kick Back, talented beatsmiths from the production team of Da Shogunz.
Propo & Kick Back grew up listening to underground Hip-Hop. As they got older, they started to get influenced by the culture as a whole and began creating music themselves, currently for Da Shogunz.

Da Shogunz are a European Hip-Hop crew based in the Netherlands.

At present, the crew includes: 2 MC's (BlabberMouf and Corown Da Sensei aka CDS) and 4 producers (Propo'88, Truffel The Phunky Phaqir, DJ Realize and Kick Back, who moved from Canada to Holland to become part of the group).

Da Shogunz, along with Het Verzet are the elite of underground Hip-Hop movement in Holland. With each member of the group contributing their unique style, together they form a strong foundation for boom-bap's inevitable revival.

This 12” record is comprised of instrumentals and vocal tracks created in traditional ways of Hip-Hop production, reminiscent of the times when the culture thrived.

It features MC's the duo has worked with in and outside of Da Shogunz. The vocal section is blessed by BlabberMouf, EllMatic & RawBerry from Holland, Simple One & Mr.Nylson from Germany, K Banger from the US, and Self from Canada. On the B-side there are six exclusive instrumental head-nodders.

In a time where mediocrity and corporate interference overflow the music industry, one should admire Propo's and Kick Back's dedication to being true to the culture, and to listeners worldwide.
It's the finest of cosmic boom-bap...

[instrumentals] foka / poland


i know we just had a batch of instrumentals- but i had to post this one too!

for the first time poland is steppin' up the instrumental section- make room for foka.

«just a crate digger, daily smoker and beatmaker from Łódź, poland. the title for this instrumental material was born in my head over a year ago, as a tribute to one of my all-time favorite lp's.
I wanted to make it a short instrumental ep and ended up with these 10 tracks, all of them based on samples from obscure jazz records and movie soundtracks.
the whole thing was made on akai s950/mpc2000xl combo and mixed at home.
shout out to funkrischi for the dope cuts and mr. krum for the artwork.
peace and stay true»


[artwork by mr. krum]


a really dope 10-track lp for your listening pleasure. i'm sure we will hear more from him in the near future. he just worked together with digi crates and announced a 7" with a polish mc. he's only 19 years old. respect.








you can download the whole lp here: http://www.divshare.com/download/16683240-8d3
