"Sometime Ago"

Tajima Hal - Passed It/Schönen Abend ("Sometime Ago" | Bandcamp)

Although many UK artists use the term experimental to escape being pigeonholed with their music, Hey!Zeus (of Obba Supa) is one of the few creatives based here that can stake legitimate claim to championing that style of Hip Hop. Like most forward thinking independent artists he started up his own label “Chakra Sounds” alongside DJ Evil Ed in 2010.

He’s also built up a strong body of work through the production duties on multiple Obba Supa releases. Stylistically, he uses purpose driven, off beat drum patterns and strange bar structures for melodies akin to some of the Jazz music he had grown up on. You only have to look to songs like “Barefaced” where a lush saxophone loop, provides a smooth backdrop for fellow OS member, Teknical Development’s abstract raps.
