Album Info

Debut album from Chasm, a producer set to shake the foundations of Australian Hip Hop. 'Beyond The Beat Tape' features guest vocalists and DJs from among Australia's Hip Hop elite including Ozi Batla, Pegz, Muph, Diafrix, Urthboy, Ivens and Hau (Koolism). With an already sterling reputation among Australia's musical underground, Chasm has found critical acclaim and commercial success alongside Sir Robbo as one half of Sydney's production duo Astronomy Class. Their highly acclaimed 2006 album 'Exit Strategy' achieved feature album status on Triple J and sent them on a sold-out nationwide tour. 'Beyond The Beat Tape' is a journey through contemporary Australian hip hop at its best. Feature tracks include 'Don't Let Your Guard Down', an aural onslaught of tough beats and funky horns with Sydney's Dialectrix shining alongside first class cuts from DJ 2buck. 'The Niceness' (co-produced by Sir Robbo) features the sultry vocals of Melbourne's Vida Sunshyne, coupled here with Sydney Hip-Hop legend Ozi Batla (The Herd). The vocal strengths of Pegz and Dialectrix resound on 'Yes It Is', while the clear-headed lyrics of Ivens and Muph flow beautifully through the down-tempo 'Viscious Circle'. From the uplifting 'Let The Beat Go' to the horn driven 'Dreamcatcher', 'Beyond The Beat Tape' effortlessly defies definition, gliding between reggae, soul and hip hop with a sophistication that justifies Chasm's place at the head of his game.
