Gravado entre 2007 e 2008, direto do quarto com FL Studio, Adobe Audition, fone de camelô e muito barulho interno. Esse é o começo de tudo. Antes do ALTHUZ, existia o Piiruka — e antes do Piiruka, tinha o Drkx.

Essas faixas foram escolhidas entre as 24 que fiz naquele ano. Simples, às vezes desafinadas, mas reais. Parte do projeto Piiruka Archives — uma arqueologia sonora da minha adolescência na internet.

Piiruka - Matériaa

Zife tape Coming On Sep 30th!

Sup y'all?! For the 30 year anniversary of the Ugly Duckling debut album called "Down The Road", and for the first time ever on vinyl and CD format, here is the full version of the Yudee 1995 demo/promo tape. This 20 tracks album contains all the songs that made them famous but — and it's an important point —  with their original versions of beats, recordings and lyrics. This album also contains two mid 90's bonus tracks that were only available on the Down The Road alternative demo tape. Needless to say that both versions of the Down The Road Demo Tape are simply impossible to find and are HIGHLY sought! 

A real Must Have for all the serious Hip Hop Collectors out there! 

This album is limited to 500 vinyl (2LP), 500 CDs and 100 cassette tapes.
The 2LP comes with insert
