Urthboy

Elefant Traks is proud to present the long-awaited debut solo album from Urthboy, Distant Sense of Random Menace.

Rated by The Brag as "one of Australia's most off-the wall MCs”, Urthboy delivers an adventurous, forward thinking album, with roots firmly based in the traditional Hip Hop sound.

As a founding member and MC of one of Australia's most well known Hip Hop groups The Herd, Urthboy now presents his debut solo album. The record features the production talent of hip-hop heavyweights Elgusto (Hermitude), Count Bounce (TZU) and The Herd.

Distant Sense of Random Menace is an introspective, yet accessible album, that travels in and out of boom bap hip-hop, with self-assured musicality and intelligence. Urthboy has developed a reputation for his stylish deliveries and complex rhyme schemes, all of which can be heard on this distinct Australian hip-hop release.

Distant Sense of Random Menace is available on a slick digi-pack CD with illustrations by Urthboy. For vinyl heads, an extended 12" vinyl will be released featuring an exclusive remix courtesy of Hermitude. The album has been mastered in Los Angeles by Dave Cooley (Madvillian, Madlib, Dangermouse - The Grey Album).

Urthboy’s live show features Ozi Batla (The Herd) and Elgusto (Hermitude). He will tour in late October to promote the new release.
