To The Other Side

A freaky little groove we used to play with Good Buddha, which I turned into a tune, featuring Lachy Doley smokin' on the Hammond organ, Pat 'Tricky T' Torres on drums, Michael Cooper on the horns and my good self on vocals/guitar. Turn it up! 

Just A Little

We Came From The Sea

This is a little mix of Good Buddha's debut record 'Skillathon' from 2001. Considered by some to be a classic Australian Hiphop record, it was an awesome snapshot of a band in their creative prime. Production by Sandro and PGB, Rhymes by A.N.D. and myself Al Young AKA 'X-ela', drums and guest vocals from Matt Johnston. 

Many people have asked me for a copy of this album, I thought this was the least I could do. If you dig it, lemme know!

SKILLATHON MIX 2012

After Skillathon, in 2004 ( (I think!) Good Buddha had undergone a change in formation, with the core group down to Matt Johnston AKA 'M-Dot', Al Young AKA 'X-ela', and Andy Lane AKA 'A.N.D.' The production was shared between them, with an emphasis on pared back Gangsta-meets-live jams. The result was a unique sounding record with both Al and Andy in fine rhyming form, on possibly GB's most cohesive and unified album. It has become many people's favourite over the years, including myself. 
For those who have heard it before, well, this one's for you. If not, this one's for you. ENJOY!  

GOOD BUDDHA FUTURE-HISTRIX MIX

Good Buddha's last record, recorded around 2007-8, was an all together more organic sounding album than Future-Histrix, as the band had expanded to become an 8 piece hybrid funk/hiphop/soul juggernaut. This was mostly recorded 'live', up in the hills of Byron Bay AUS.
The new sound was strong and unique, but ultimately this record was the beginning of the end for the Buddhz! 

ENJOY!

GOOD BUDDHA HIT THE SKY RUNNING MIX

A dark love song dedication with a slow burning gangsta beat. From the new E.P. 'SATSUMA', out now. I hope you dig it! 

I'm Yours

A funky rumination on love and loss, set in an apocalyptic age where life is strangely quiet and memories are all we have. 

From the  EP 'A Distant City', a mini concept album that spans the groove frequencies...

Featuring Carlos Adura on drums, mixed by Dan Elleson. 

Stay tuned, stay safe.

Lose Your Love

'Where You Gonna Run?' is the next taster from A-Wyre's new mini album: A Distant City. 

Set in an apocalyptic age where isolation is the norm and all we have are memories, this opening tune is a heavy, distorted vocal/synth hip hop track with mad live Slide Guitar licks blasting through a Whammy Pedal. 

Where you gonna run?

A-Wyre
