If you are happy with the pricing we'll then ask you how you want the beat formatted e.g. if you want 3x 16 bar verses with 2x 8 bar hooks we can do this for you. Please inform us within 24 hours of purchase with your formation structure otherwise you will receive the wav files as mapped in Logic X.

Eslev is the producer from Full Tote Odds who has also produced for many artists around the country.

He produced the 2 hit singles off the album 'Place Your Bets' which landed national rotation through Triple J. They were titled, 'Southern Wind' & 'What's Going Down.'

Working on production Debate honed his MC skills and recorded many tracks with Forecast (Train Of Thought) during the late 90’s & early 2000’s. 

In 2009 Debate produced the album ‘Spice Of Life’ by Train Of Thought member LevelHeaded, the same year also saw Debate’s production feature on 2 Hilltop Hoods Tracks, ‘Here Come The Girls’ (Released as a bonus track on ‘The Calling’ Deluxe Edition) and ‘Rent Week’ (Released as a bonus track on ‘State Of The Art’ itunes Version). Debate's production credit list has steadily grown over the years and his beats are now becoming more sort after nationally and internationally. 2011 alone saw Debate's production feature on Funkoars – The Quickening, Funkoars – It’s all Good 12’, Mase N Mattic – Sound The Horns, After Hours – Darker Days & Reason – Window Of Time. In 2013 Debate gained international recognition working with UK artist AJ producing his whole album ‘Tangle Your Cassette’.

Whilst Debate’s production style gets its grounding from the mid 90’s East Coast sound he has been able to develop a diverse sound which incorporates his many years of production, music knowledge and listening to hip hop into his own production style.

Six years in the making, FALL FROM THE LIGHT, the highly anticipated album from hip hop icons HILLTOP HOODS, has arrived.

Featuring singles ‘The Gift ft. Marlon’, ‘Don’t Happy, Be Worry’, ‘Laced Up’ and ‘Never Coming Home ft. SIX60’, the 12-track offering takes listeners on a journey that feels as ambitious and triumphant for the fans, as it has been for Suffa, Pressure and Debris themselves.

Blending fun, vulnerability and vignettes that highlight their masterful cadence and technical flow, the ninth record from Hilltop Hoods wastes no time in getting to work upon arrival. Produced by One Above with additional production by Sesta and Suffa, Fall From The Light was recorded in Adelaide, Darwin, Melbourne, and New Zealand and features a range of special guests.

Hilltop Hoods will return to arenas across Australia on their Never Coming Home Tour in Feb/Mar 2026 along with dates in the UK & Europe for Aug/Sep 2025.

Their unparalleled career speaks for itself - over 89 Platinum accreditations, 1.1 million album sales and over 1.8 billion global streams, six #1 albums, the most entries into triple j’s Hottest 100 for an Australian Artist, ten ARIA award wins, and multiple sold-out Arena tours solidifying Hilltop Hoods as one of the Australia’s most successful names in music, period. The music they make is done with the intent to connect and last with fans, regardless of age, background, or creed; time and time again, their formula pays dividends and then some.

Leaning into the unknown and embracing new sonic inspirations has long been a source of fuel for multi-Platinum selling artist, ILLY. 
His versatility as a songwriter and performer has seen the artist grow from Australian hip hop champion, through to one of the country’s most in-demand and dynamic pop artists today. That crossover success established ILLY as one of Australian hip hop’s integral triumphs; along with the Hilltop Hoods, bringing the genre to widespread – and maintained – mainstream success. 
The music ILLY creates today is done so with reinvigorated confidence for the craft. Recent writing sessions with DMA’S songwriter Johnny Took and Peking Duk’s Reuben Styles have birthed ‘Like You’ – the first new piece of music from ILLY to break open his forthcoming seventh studio album. The single, buoyed by vocal harmonies layered over a slick pairing of EDM and a driving acoustic guitar, never loses its sense of self-awareness or fun.
With a new ILLY record on the horizon, this story continues; driven by new inspirations and that pure instinct that has only seen him go from strength to strength, time will tell just how far this next era will take him.
