WHO? Circle Research! Two cool cats from Toronto, Canada called Astro and Nik T. The dynamic duo has been an integral part of the Toronto hip-hop since Showbiz & A.G. dropped their "Party Groove" EP (for all 80ties babies, we are talking about 1992). Circle Research are old souls when it comes to hip-hop and rap but their beats are brand new.

"WHO?" is also the title of their first album for MPM. A "Donuts" style throwback record - 36 tracks strong but only 38 minute long. It is based on some of the the most classic hip-hop breaks and samples but excecuted in 2008 fashion. Astro and Nik evaporate the DNA of hip-hop into a 38 minute beattape that is actually a real album. And it's fun too!

"WHO?" started as a show-reel / demo tape that Astro and Nik put together to show their skills and sound. It became an instant office favourite at the MPM headquarters and we convinced the duo to share it with the fans.

http://community.hhv.de/magazin/reviews/785/circle-research

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Circle Research 04.09.08

»Who?«

Nik Timar und Gil Masuda bilden das Dj-und Producer-Duo Circle Research. Das Duo aus Toronto hat sich hier in einer Sample-, Scratch- und Cut-Orgie ein Denkmal gesetzt. Das auf Melting Pot erscheinende Album “Who?” besteht aus beachtlichen 36 Tracks, die jedoch in noch beachtlicheren 38 Minuten abgespielt sind. Klassische Hip Hop-Samples , Funkgoodies und 2008er Beats treffen sich hier auf einem Mixtape, das sich zum Album erhob und nun den Weg in die Regale findet. Der Werdegang des Duos ist an diesem Album abzulesen. Der Beginn im Hip Hop, die Einbeziehung des Funks der 60er, 70er, und 80er und ein Münden in Soulklassikern. Ihre Liebe zu den Original-Instrumenten der Zeit verschmilzt mit den Pro-Tools zu einem “electric soulful sound”, tanzbar, bekannt und trotzdem spannend. Man rast durch die Zeit – in enormer Geschwindigkeit. Vielleicht ist gerade das das Geheimnis der Beiden.Erfolg definieren sie so: “It´s more about getting to quit your day job. That, and to be able to eat and pay your Toronto rent”. Die nächsten Überweisungen dürften also kein Problem darstellen.

Circle Research. Who?

Circle Research - Astro and Nik T, the two producers and fabulous DJs from Toronto.

“Who?”Yes, “Who?” is their “Donuts” style throwback record which will be released at the end of Sept. 2008 (Melting Pot Music)! What they did is absolutely phenomenal. They produced a 36 tracks strong but only 38 minutes long album, which is based on some of the most classic hip-hop breaks and samples but in 2008 fashion. Word!In my opinion this album will be one of the most important releases in 2008 and a reason to buy more records, to spin real vinyl and to keep the independent music alive! “Here to Rock” is my most favorite track on the promo CD. Among others they used samples from KRS-One & Rock Steady Crew and created a drifty tune. Especially this tune is already deep in my head and soul due the combination of these samples…ingenious! So you can expect the DNA of hip-hop into a 38 minute beatape with lots of breaks, samples and history. An investment for ears and soul!

Cheers

Circle Research: WHO? - Review in www.1beat.de

----------------------------------------------
www.1beat.de
----------------------------------------------

The definition of a bombastic Mixtapestyle. Natürlich gibt es technisch wesentlich aktivere und innovativere DJ-Mixtapes als “Who?” von den kanadischen Nerds von Circle Research. Der springende Punkt ist der, dass die beiden verrückten Plattendreher aus Toronto überhaupt nicht das Ziel hatten, hier mit den neuesten Sctraches zubegeistern. Sie wollen Spass haben und sich ganz im dillerschen Donuts-Style durch die Musikgeschichte zwischen HipHop, Jazz, Soul und Funk cutten, switchen und loopen. Sie wollten die einflussreichsten und natürlich auch bekanntesten Breaks der HipHop-Geschichte in einen Mix legen. Das haben sie geschafft. Die altschulischen PVC-Adidassler aus der Vinylgeneration werden hier oft etwas gelangweilt dreinschauen, weil sie das Material, das hier gekonnt zusammengemixt wird, natürlich schon kennen oder womöglich im Regal stehen haben. Euch und den restlichen Interessierten sei hier ganz klar empfohlen – lasst Euch trotzdem darauf ein. Das ist beste Unterhaltung. Hier werdet ihr soviel wieder oder neu entdecken. Da fliegen einem die Samples und Cuts zwischen Kurtis Blow, Rock Steady Crew bis Common, A Tribe called Quest oder dem Wutang-Clan nur so um die Ohren. Diese zwei sympathischen Kanadier haben schon eine ganze genau Ahnung von der Materie. Da läuft was funky.
