➳ What is it that defines us, that makes us special?
Culture, rituals, routines? Yes baby, that’s a good start, but let’s spice it up with our actions, thoughts, what’s going on, and even more, how we think the world works. To keep it simple: our Reality. How we feel, think, and believe about all the mysteriousness out there.

➳ There is more to throw in the pot: Our beliefs, our look, our family, our society, our behavior, how we treat ourselves, others and the environment. Literally everything that has an impact on us.

So maybe the better question would be: Who are we not?

➳ This musical journey is an inspiration to collect your thoughts and try to take a moment to be aware of who we are and who we aren’t. Let the “Scruffy Monkey” be the leader to show what it is that marks ‘you as you’ and ‘us as us’. 

Don’t get lost in the Djungle!

DJ #005 ~ Who We Are ➳  The Scruffy Monkey

"One Step Forward" is the debut album from Brighton based DJ and producer Cut La Vis aka David Lavis. Raised on a healthy diet of 90s hip hop, roots reggae and ska, Cut La Vis debut album for NICE UP! is a melting pot of exactly that - the sounds and culture he grew up around whilst learning his trade. Starting off as the DJ for a reggae band in his hometown of Hereford, he soon gravitated to the turntablist explosion of the mid 90s, competing in local competitions and B-Boy jams. At the same time, his love for dub and roots reggae led him into trying his hand at the fertile reggae mash-up scene, making a name for himself with an array of dancefloor shaking blends of classic hip hop tracks infused with a feel good skank, as well as remixes for for artists such as Blend Mishkin, Dreadsquad and Max Rubadub.

Making the transition from mash-up maverick to original producer, you can still expect the same reggae infused bangers, dubwise hip hop and ska shakers complemented by an impressive array of guest vocalists plus a little help from a tight band of session musicians. Following their summer hit "Still Have The Love", London-based reggae/soul singer Maddy Carty appears on a number of tracks, as well as Bristol songstress Eva Lazarus who has been bothering the top 40 recently alongside Etherwood (Hospital Records). Roots Manuva collaborator and Speech Debelle's Mercury-winning producer Lotek blesses the mic on the bouncing "Rinse & Repeat" as well as UK Dancehall legend Tippa Irie who crops up on "Love My Music" pus an appearance from regular collaborator Mystro who opens the album with "Hit Me One Time". Rounding things off are JA dancehall MC Peppery and vocalist from Origin One, Parisa - giving the album a healthy balance of established artists and newer talent.

With a cheeky nod to the classic Max Romeo track, "One Step Forward" also refers to this being Dave's debut album and making his first step into the future whilst retaining inspiration from the past.

Full Contact (ft Skunkadelic) - Cut La Vis

This music is a flow of funky hip-hop energy with groovy rhymes and some party bangers. The idea and concept was born during the "Beat’n’Bake Party" back in Russia with Dj Suspect (France). Limited number of CD copies were printed with designed handmade craft cover.

Enjoy listening and share the vibe plz!

Beat'N'Bake Special Mix

Basic Questions ft. Greg Blackman

An absolute pleasure to remix Afro Cluster, their original track combined elements of Afro, Funk, Hiphop and Disco with lovely soulful vocals from Helena May and a gangster (but good vibes) MC flow from mr Skunkadelic.

My remix takes all these styles in but also throws in some b-boys breaks and extra jazzy percussion to make this genre-spanning banger!  This was in the pipeline being tweaked since last summer and a key part of my sets, Hope you dig it as much as I did making it.

Soul Children (feat. Greg Blackman)

Cardiff based Afro Cluster are renowned for their unique and exciting blend of Afro funk and Hip-Hop. 
Utilizing cuts, a full horn section and rhythm section as well the MC stylings of Skunkadelic, they’ve been frequently described as having a colossal sound and an explosive live show. 
After 2016’s critically acclaimed EP 'We Don Land', the band is currently writing their debut album for release in the near future. Keep your eyes and ears peeled!

“They’re excellent proof that the best music exists between and beyond genre boundaries and national borders, and are reputed as being one of the finest live bands in Wales.” 
– BBC Gorwelion/Horizons

”The lyrics are politically and socially charged, so it’s a band with head and heart in tune. A refreshing concept in this day and age.” 
– Bethan Elfyn, BBC Radio Wales 

”For a group to have so many essential tunes and straddle the hip-hop/funk balancing beam with such style and energy is astounding” 
– Justin Evans, Buzz Magazine

”A deliciously rambunctious band that sways between the funky horns of The Average White Band and the joyous work of positive old school organic hip-hop acts like The Roots or De La Soul.” 
– Bill Cummings, God Is In The TV Scene

“Brilliant stuff and as catchy as a Nora virus, though far more pleasant.” 
– Paul Scott-Bates, Louder Than War 

”What an authentic sound this is”
– Tom Robinson, BBC Radio 6

“Tons of fun live”
- AAA Badboy, Boomtown Fair

“Very, very ace indeed” 
– Adam Walton, BBC Radio Wales
