Unstable Label Presents
‘Beats, Rhymes and Conflicts’ by The Wrongstar Society
After Rehab, court cases, a near prison sentence, breaking ankles, nearly splitting up after our first gig due to a huge argument, a divorce, fights and 250 hours community service... The Wrongstar Society are proud to announce the release of their album ‘Beats, Rhymes and Conflicts’.
The Wrongstar society are a live 5 piece band / DJ/ electronic production hoodlum out fit topped off with cheeky bandito voxpop, boeing-powered guitar lines and OTT bass deformation.
The Society consists of Paul Era, Bass Invada, MC Mooretime, Dirty D and ESQ. We met in a studio by chance back in late 2006 and after soon finding out that we had a shared interest in general hooliganism we decided to make a tune. That said tune evolved into the double CD album you now have in your hands. The Wrongstars set off on their World Tour in Dec 07 and since then have already played with The Stanton Warriors, Deekline and Wizard, Atomic Hooligan, Jay Cunning (Kiss FM) and Leeroy Thornhill (Prodigy). On top of that they have also done guest mixes on Kiss FM and Galaxy and had plays on Radio 1 and are in the process of setting up there own night in London.
THIS ALBUM IS DESIGNED TO KICK THE SH*T OUT OF ALL THE GENERIC DANCE MUSIC CURRENTLY SUFFOCATING THIS INDUSTRY. FOR MORE INFORMATION PLEASE GO TO WWW.MYSPACE.COM/THE_WRONGSTARS OVER AND OUT!

Atomic Hooligan ‘Sex, Drugs & Blah Blah Blah’
Label: BOTCHIT & SCARPER
Rel Date: March 17th 08
Cat No: Bos2LP027
Sex, Drugs & Balh Blah Blah is a step beyond their last album, with new vocalists, new live instrumentation, and a new outlook on music, the Hooligans have outdone themselves again.
Their sophomore album see's the return of long time Hooligan collaborator, Justine Berry of Hey Gravity, along with new vocalist to the camp & future superstar, Elmo Jones of the Furies. The lads have also employed a couple of Hip Hop legends from both sides of the Atlantic. DJ Premier collaborator, Afu Ra opens the album with an explosive performance to set the mood, then later on in the set, UK don Genasis Elijah, rips it up like only this rhyme animal can. The album also features Playboy -UK Cyber girl of the Year Alex Sim-Wise, turning in a trashy electro style chant for the masses.
The Hooligans have gone deeper with their production on this set. They pulled in string arranger Jote Osahn , well known for her work with the Gorillaz & Root Manuva, along with an entire brass section to round their sound out.
And if that wasn’t enough Christin Ward (DC Comics) has whipped up some of his amazing, twisted artwork to package the whole thing.
This big melting pot of talent really does make for one tasty musical stew by anyone’s standards

Slicing, remixing, looping, "live performance-oriented features" … this is Digidesign we’re talking about, right? Digi’s Advanced Instrument Research (A.I.R.) unit, the fruits of the acquisition of Wizoo, may have a pretentious name, but they’ve been doing some pretty great work on new instruments. The new project, Transfuser, will have to enter some crowded waters. [...]

A spherical view of the Baltimore Symphony, by Zach Stern.
Ableton announced that they’d be doing an orchestral sample library — called, logically enough, the Orchestral Instrument Collection — way back when Live Suite came out last year. But Orchestral Instruments actually didn’t ship then. As of this week, it is shipping.
