UNDECORATED VETERANZ,MUSIC TO MAKE YOU STAGGER dial up records.
veteranz is perhaps the perfect name for this outfit and listening to the MCs voices and delivery you can tell they,ve been around for a while.Not to say that they dont sound contemporary,just that at times the vocals do have a punctuated flow that sounds informed by older uk styles.Now whilst the MCs switch up over a variety of styles of beat,attention should be given to the beats themselves,which really sound well crafted and tailored to the MCs, and help give the veteranz a solid identity.

Undecorated Veteranz Undecorated Veteranz Music To Make You Stagger (EP) (Dial Up Records) Hailing from South Wales, a place criminally underrated when it comes to its strong and prospering hip hop scene, comes a three-piece crew with more energy in their music than Busta Rhymes on crack. Upon first listen to this EP, the listener is instantly taken to a place associated with such circa-1993 artists as Funkdoobiest, with the meaty, up-tempo beats perfectly accompanying the lively flow of rappers 4Dee and Joe Blow. Such tracks as 'We Can Make It Work', with its manic, headnodder of a beat, are sure-fire party starters and make this an essential purchase for any DJs out there wanting to liven up the house. With parallels easily made to acts such as Funkoars, it cannot be expressed enough, how dope and genuinely 'big' the production on this EP is. Avoiding any more clichéd old-school references (a worryingly feature of all my reviews thus far lol - either I must be getting old or hip hop is getting weaker) - this EP contains all the ingredients that make a classic. A definite purchase. For more information go to www.dialuprecords.com

Undecorated Veteranz Music To Make You Stagger EP Made up of Optimas Prime..s DJ / Producer Stagga and emcees 4Dee and Joe Blow this is another 12.. made in Wales, showing the output is finally beginning to pick up. Having not record shopped over the border for too long, I..m not sure what impact these are having on the streets in the rest of the UK, but Wales appears to be seeing a slight resurgence of late. The title ..Music To Make You Stagga.. points instantly to the production work and for me it clearly takes the limelight. Using some well know samples and some lesser so, Stagga concocts musical backdrops which come proper every time. The rock sample (..How Deep Is Your Loving.. - ??damn my memory??) on ..Getting Dark.. is the concrete standout, with the repetitive riff and party break this makes you wanna move! The emceeing on this project is likely to be the main barrier for people getting into it, as both emcees 4Dee especially, sound proper old school. This works well with the sample based work of Stagga, but it may well sound a bit too dated for some of the Nu Era hat wearing tarts.
If you like your emcees with a hefty pinch of old school flows and some proper break-based production this is ideal. If you..re expecting tales of someone discovering water on the moon, or how many kick-flips they did last week, this will not meet your expectations. Make up your own mind.
