Circle Research - Who ? EP (12") 23 May 08

- Welcome Circle Research! The producer duo from Toronto introduce their forthcoming album "Who?" with a limited DJ-EP.

- "Who?" is a 36-track "Donuts"-styled instrumental album based on the most classic hip-hop breaks executed in 2008 fashion. The DNA of hip-hop evaporated in a 38 minute beat tape. And it's fun too.

- The "Who EP" features vinyl- exclusive extended DJ-versions of four album cuts.

- Circle Research consists of Astro and Nik T, who both have been part of the Toronto hip hop scene since 1992. Locally they are known as club and radio DJs (hosting The Circle Research Show on CKLN for 10 years) and have made a name internationally through their releases on Do Right! Music.
