Anywhere i can preview it?
What sort of stuff on it?
professorgreen
9th September '08, 12:04 AM
the taz track is hrm, grime i suppose? very epic sounding though
trunk shit is on my myspace, boom bap head nod shit
big wide world again i guess grime but very rich in melody...
become of us dub step with a kinda reggae feel
hometown glory is a remake of adele's song
reefer dreaming is a pretty chilled out reflective kinda song
here i come is hard straight hiphop quite battle rhyme based
maybe is quite an acoustic sounding song although not quite acoustic... soft but hard if that makes any sense?
previews up end of the week

Album's gonna be next year now,
This 'legit' date is looking at being mid Oct but i'm gonna be letting off tracks that aren't on this or the album for free download on the myspace between now and then. i'd like to say weekly but thats not gonna be possible due to the gym class heroes tour.
The work rate's a lot at the moment though i've completed 4 tracks in 2 days and 2 short evenings...
I had to write them as well!
I do feel absolutely fucked for all the sleep i haven't had and the flu i do have... but the cd will be ready for the tour hahaha
i'm selling it on the tour to the gch crowd but those who get it in october will be treated to some bonus material.
like the trunk shit remix with jehst and loudmouth.

9th September '08, 12:21 AM
I'm using the 50k of myspace promo the week before release as well as getting proper PR for it so expect some noise from me... its been long enough!
just be good to me is still gonna be the single, had to re record it and spent a while getting the mix right but thats for the commercial side of things. it sounds fucked now!
gonna be mastered next week so we'll start servicing radio with it asap
i'm not gonna slow down now, along with this EP there's the album and the remainder is almost a second album...
plus the freestyle bits and remixes for the second mixtape. i've got a busy year next year!!!

really glad you lot like the cover, i thought scribs would tell me to shut up when i told him the idea but he thought it was worth working on, and we didn't have long.
he's the one though i ain't gonna lie.
his artwork is always murky.

professorgreen
9th September '08, 12:58 AM
the taz tune is my favourite at the moment.
the idea with the tee is that it'll be bought by people who have no idea who i am, and those who buy it because its a pro green tee shirt.
gona keep the tee's like that, don't really wanna do the bog standard shit.
the guys at second son are wicked, and their clothes are fucked.
check http://www.freshcotton.co.uk
not sure if it still works but the product voucher code PRO GREEN or PROGREEN used to = 20% off

Looks like it could be decent, covers big, tees are nixe aswell
Lookin forward to this cause i liked the first CD alot
professorgreen
9th September '08, 01:04 AM
not to scare you but its very very different to the first cd.
a lot more polished but still rugged.
its the first release of proper songs, and its much more a mini album than an EP to be real...
i've got that anxious / excited feeling, its been two and a half years since the first cd, i dunno where the time went!

professorgreen
9th September '08, 01:15 AM
haha no way, the tee's will cost me more than the cd will cost you!!
there will be package deals though.
i'll have my own online store shortly, they'll also be stocked on freshcotton.co.uk / .nl
the tee's will be of a high quality, not the usual bullshit.

Got the EP a few weeksn basck when there were 20 limited editions available.
Definitely different to the previous material, but in a good way.
More polished and a better production. I like to see people experimenting with different styles and not just staying still. Can't wait for when the album eventually drops.

Tee's alot, have a few secondson clothes already. Would maybe buy the tee but I don't like wearing white clothes at all... Liking the cover a lot too, just the colour of the text doesn't match that of the illustration, its still really nice though. The previews are sounding good as well.

postage is reliable, not just saying that, they have some stupidly minute rate of returns in comparison to everyone else, the service is very good, and the sizing is very informative unlike most places (they have measurements next to the sizes for each t shirt which they measure specifically). i've been to amsterdam and seen their operation, its very very very serious. cool guys as well...
only problem is the site is new, they are still ironing out a few faults...
phikz
28th October '08, 09:15 PM
^^ I found the site the other week actually, tried it with 3 different browsers to see how the website was reacting because it does actually look decent. It's been bookmarked now because the shipping is good and the t-shirt size help is a blessing for me as Xl is forever coming up too baggy and L is forever coming up too short for my lanky torso. Will check when the sits working properly.

re photographed for your viewing pleasure, and to make it more obvious for the people who don't check the sizing that they're actually a normal sized well fitting tee ;p
the ep's should be ariving with me today so i'll be sending em out tomorrow / friday so they'll be delivered on monday for anyone who's pre ordered one.

lol. Is an EP, that's the point. 8 tracks is about right for an EP. I think there's another EP coming before the Album next year. So is plenty to look forward too.
Taz Buckfaster's tune is absolutely fucked.

lol same me, I was actually gonna start a new thread bout this the other day. The EP is of good quality though, builds up a nice expectation of what the album will be like, when will the Album be dropping any ifea at all?
@ SE15, Hackney i think.
