The hilarity continues as we catch up with Peter Beaty from The Optimen. Mr Beaty is the most recent addition to The Optimen and as his pseudonym suggests is responsible for working the MPC into magic beats. Don’t forget you can catch The Optimen‘s new album The Out of Money Experience from iTunes or from your favourite CD store.
Comments OffRecently I caught up with Sydney sider NJE via email and sent the questionnaire, you can read all his responses below. NJE hails from Campbeltown and has recently released his new album From The Outside Looking In…… which i’m pretty sure is going to be available through JB Hifi soon (if not already). If you can’t get a copy and you want to check it out, join up to the NJE Facebook page and send him a message; i’m sure he’ll help.
Comments OffToday we’re catching up with DJ Damage. Damage is the man behind the wheels for The Optimen and also forms part of the turntablist crew Terntable Jediz. Remember you can catch Damage’s fine cuts on The Optimen’s new album The Out Of Money Experience, available at your local JB Hifi, on iTunes or from your local music retailer (who you should be supporting!).
Comments OffWe do the questionnaire exchange again with another member from The Optimen, this time we catch up with Kristoff The Russian (MC). You can still catch some of the tracks off The Optimen‘s new album The Out Of Money Experience on their MySpace page, alternatively you can grab it from a CD retailer or online via iTunes or Big Pond Music. Before proceeding i just wanted to touch on something funny I read as a status update on The Optimen’s facebook fan page from an interview with The Dwarf:
TheDwarf: You don’t sound Russian.
Kristoff: Yeah, I wasn’t born there.
TheDwarf: Oh, I was going to ask you about the hip hop scene in Russia.
Kristoff: Oh, you should ask me anyway!
TheDwarf: So… what’s it like.
Kristoff: I’ve got no idea.
Now read on and learn all about Kristoff and his apparent hatred of Danni Minogue.
Comments OffSo recently we sent the questionnaire in the direction of none other than Brisbane’s The Optimen, first up we have Sammsonite (Producer/MC). You can currently check out tracks from The Optimen’s new album The Out of Money Experience on their MySpace page, but i have a feeling that’s all going to end soon. Alternatively, if you want to get yourself a copy of the album, drop a comment anywhere on our site before Sunday 18th of April to enter our competition to win or just grab it on iTunes.
Comments OffBefore the new year rang in I caught up with Trumps from Grifters Inc. and ran him through our questionnaire, catch the Q&A below. If you haven’t heard of Grifters Inc. head over to myspace and have a listen and if you’re enjoying it you can get a copy of The Checkout Chicks, Bargirls and Goths EP for FREE, at Da Klinic and Clinic 116 in Adelaide or contact Grifters Inc. through their website and maybe they’ll be able to help you with some kind of good exchange.

So the other day i decided it would be a nice idea to do a questionnaire with some hip hop artists based to give us a bit of personal info about them. Let’s be straight, this is not meant to be an interview, it’s questionnaire devised from my favourite TV Show that interviews actors, Inside The Actors Studio. The presenter James Lipton runs a 10 question questionnaire based on a questionairre prepped by an idol of his Bernard Pivot, which was based on The Proust Questionnaire. My questionnaire is James Lipton’s 10 questions, plus 5 more questions specific to music. Read the rest of this entry…
