This is the sequel to the Remixes EP I released in 2011.  It features 10 remixes I produced of 90's indies, and comes in a picture cover, limited to 200 copies (100 copies on cream vinyl and 100 copies on clear blue vinyl with black mix.)  The price is $20 + postage. Listen:

Debonair P - Instrumentals

I also put together an LP containing 18 instrumentals, covering pretty much all the instrumentals from both the Remixes 1 and Remixes 2 records (slightly abridged to fit on the wax.)  This record is also limited to 200 copies (100 on frosted clear vinyl and 100 on green marble vinyl.)  It comes in a picture cover (same design as the jacket for the Remixes 2 record.)  The price is $20 + postage. Listen:

Vinyl Bundle

If you're interested in copping doubles of both the new releases (1 copy of each colour), I have a bundle available which will save you a few dollars.  The first 20 orders of the bundle also come with a free Debonair Blends 10 mix CD, with 67 tracks spanning 95-97.

5 x CD Bundle

A few people have asked me about making some of my releases available on CD.  So, I have put together a 5CD bundle containing the following releases on compact disc: Remixes 1, Remixes 2, Instrumentals, Debonair Blends 9 mix CD (67 tracks from 97-99) and Debonair Blends 10 mix CD (67 tracks from 95-97.)  All CD's come with full colour artwork / shrink-wrapping etc.  The bundle is $25 and is available via the store links above.  If you order the bundle as well as any wax, please be advised the CD's will ship to you separately directly from the factory (so you will receive 2 separate packages).  If you'd like to order any of the CD's in the bundle separately, you can do that: HERE

FREE DIGITAL RELEASE

I am making both these releases freely available to the public digitally, you can get the digital versions via the following link (please feel free to share the link too): http://www.mediafire.com/download/m2ea4bbrda4c2hl/Debonair_P_-_Remixes_2_%2B_Instrumentals.zip

Combined Shipping With Terror Green - The 1995 Demo EP

Also dropping this weekend through Heavy Jewelz Records is Terror Green's 'The 1995 Demo EP'.  One of the most requested demos on the infamous Stretch & Bobbito show, this classic mid-90's NY flavor is finally available on wax at http://heavyjewelz.bigcartel.com - once again, Heavy Jewelz and myself have arranged to combine shipping for anyone who picks up releases from both of our stores.

Simply purchase whatever records you like separately from each of our respective stores before Friday 1 November. On Saturday 2 November, I will go through the orders and will refund the shipping costs to people who order records from both stores. For most international orders, the refund will be around $13.  The new releases from both Heavy Jewelz and myself are already pressed and ready to shipped out starting 2 November.  Australian orders will ship around the 9th of November.

We send all packages as gifts with a low value ($5-$10) – however, some packages still seem to get stuck at customs when sending to Germany.  If you would like your package sent insured or with tracking please just email me to organise.

Thank You!

As always, thanks for the support of my releases – it is extremely appreciated.  If you have any questions please get in touch.  I hope you like the records.

Shipping Details

Thank You!

As always, thank you for the support of these releases – a lot of time and effort goes into them so the support is extremely appreciated.  Massive thanks of course to DL at No Sleep Recordings and Nick Wiz for making this project a reality.  If you have a question about your order or anything else, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Polarity & Lex - Hennessy & 76th (CD!)

Firstly, thanks to everyone who already picked up the Omniscence 'Sharp Objects' EP that came out the other week - really been overwhelmed by the support people have shown!

Earlier this year I released the 'Hennessy & 76th' LP which I recorded with Queens MC LEX between around 2005 and 2008.  The vinyl sold out in something like 12 hours - crazy!  Lex has just released a CD version of the album which also includes a few bonus tracks we couldn't fit onto the vinyl.  To purchase the CD directly from Lex, please head: HERE

Props to Lex for making this happen.

[S2S022] - Fla Fla (Sparrow) + Debonair P - Timeless EP (Red / Green Vinyl)

Many thanks to everyone who picked up the Nick Wiz ‘Cellar Selections 2’ 2LP I released a couple weeks back, that record sold out crazy quick.  All copies of that release have now been shipped and should start reaching people soon.

I have another new release shipping very soon: Fla Fla’s “Timeless” EP on Six2Six Records.  Fla is the MC half of the group Sparrow who released indie classics such as 'Rhyme Impotence', 'Inheritence' and 'Physics' in the 90’s; he also appeared on several tracks off the Global Platoon EP I produced last year.  I produced, mixed and provided cuts on all 10 tracks on this new release which is limited to 300 copies (150 on clear red vinyl / 150 on clear green vinyl.)

The record is due to ship early-mid May, and can be pre-ordered (for $22 + postage) via the links below...

Outside Australia, purchase directly from Six2Six Records: http://six2sixrecords.bandcamp.com/album/fla-fla-sparrow-the-movement-timeless-12ep

Inside Australia, purchase directly from me: http://gentlemansrelief.bigcartel.com

In Europe, several retailers are also taking pre-orders including Vinylism, HHV and Vinyl-Digital.

The 'Timeless' EP is one of 3 records that Six2Six Records is releasing as part of Record Store Day 2013.  The other two records are the Constant Deviants 'It's OK' 12" (including a remix produced by me) and Marco Polo's 'The Green' EP which was originally meant to be released by the ill-fated Goodfelons label.  I definitely recommend copping all 3!

Many thanks as always to those who continue to support my music and pick up the wax.

Nick Wiz - Cellar Selections 2LP (1993-1997) [GRR008]

I'm excited to announce the latest vinyl release on GRR: Nick Wiz's "Cellar Selections 2" 2LP.  Hopefully most of you would familiar with Nick Wiz for his extensive and consistently dope 90's work with artists including the Cella Dwellas, Rakim, Shabaam Sahdeeq, Ran Reed, Chubb Rock etc.  Over the past couple of years, No Sleep Recordings has released three double CD's from Nick's archives containing material that had, for the most part, never been heard before.  While a 2LP containing some of these songs ("Cellar Selections 1") was released back in 2010, no further vinyl instalments seemed to be forthcoming.  Fortunately, I recently connected with No Sleep to make another 2LP release possible, containing 20 tracks taken primarily from the 1993 - 1997 period, containing songs from luminaries such as Cella Dwellas, Rakim, Pudgee, Ran Reed, Shadowz in da Dark and Emskee alongside underground favourites such as Hardwe're, Ill Mentality, Imperial, Native Assassins and more.  This is the first time that any of these songs have been on wax.

This record is limited to 250 copies on 2LP black vinyl with a sticker cover.  The price is $40 + postage for 1 copy or $75 + postage for 2 copies.  This isn't a pre-order - the records are pressed and are ready to be shipped to you from the US.

The record can be ordered from: http://cellarselections.bigcartel.com

Here's the tracklist:

1. Hardwe're - The Bricks (1994)
2. LSD - Rowdy at the Party (1994)
3. Tross - Still Low (1994)
4. Ran Reed - Whutcha Want (1994)
5. Shadowz in da Dark - 11:45 (1995)
6. Ill Mentality - So Amazing (1995)
7. 195 - It's a Hit (1997)

Constant Deviants - It's OK! 12" (Inc. Debonair P Remix)

You can preview the tracks on the record below, enjoy!

Debonair P - Debonair Blends 9 Megamix (2012)

Thanks a lot to everyone who copped the Polarity & Lex LP we released in January - the response and feedback on that one was unexpected and overwhelming with the release selling out within about 12 hours.  For those who missed the vinyl, there should be a very limited CD version out soon.

While there is a new GRR vinyl release just around the corner, here is a megamix I put together last year.  This one focusses on the 97-99 period.  I can't front, it's not my favourite era in hip hop as it was when a lot of artists really fell off the rails (and a lot of production from '99 onwards has dated pretty badly), but there was some interesting music coming out.  I tried to capture on this mix a lot of the stuff I was listening to at the time as well as a few records I only came across years after the fact.  Hopefully there is something new here for everyone.  Get the download link and tracklist after the jump...

Polarity (Debonair P) + LEX = Hennessy & 76th LP (Very Limited Vinyl)

Way back in 2005 I sent a beat CD to a talented MC from Queens NY named LEX.  Over the following few years I spent thousands of hours on the songs we recorded for an album called 'Hennessy and 76th' (the street names we lived on in Melbourne and NY at the time.)  While the album was finished in 2009, I am really happy to finally be making this material available to the public on wax.

As usual, I produced, mixed and did the cuts on all 10 tracks on the record.  Lex handles all the mic duties - you can preview all 10 tracks below:

The vinyl release features 10 tracks and comes on clear wax in a sticker sleeve.  With only 100 copies pressed, this is my most limited vinyl release yet!  In order to reduce postage costs for folks overseas (especially for those customers who buy more than 1 copy), I have a small quantity of this release shipping directly from the USA.  The record is priced at $20 for 1 copy or $36 for 2 copies.

Outside Australia, please purchase here: http://hennessyand76th.bigcartel.com

Inside Australia, please purchase here: http://gentlemansrelief.bigcartel.com

All orders come with a free digital version of the album (including a few bonus tracks not on the wax.)  International orders are in stock and ship this weekend - Australian orders will ship in about 1-2 weeks once copies are received here in Melbourne (I will send a notification when the records are posted).

Many thanks to those who listen to and/or support this release.  Lex has an album coming out in a few months called 'How About Some Hardcore' featuring a whole host of Queens heavy hitters (I did cuts on a couple tracks too.)  I also have more than a couple vinyl releases coming out this year so I'll keep you updated.

Thanks!
