RhymeAudial is comprised of two talents; Fonetiks MC and DJ Volatile, who teamed up to form the group in early 2005. Having been active members of the Perth Aussie Hip-Hop scene for many years now, the two are ready to take their critically-acclaimed act from the stage to the stores with their forthcoming debut LP, Plastic Fortunes.
Recently picking up three nominations from the Western Australian Music Industry (WAMi) for the 2007 Urban Song of the Year, the outlook is all positive for the team.
The group has been hailed as not only a unique and talented act, but also as a huge leap for their local scene of Perth. Where the eastern states acts have the ability to draw on their quantity for support, those from Perth have to rely on their quality to stand out from the rest.
All production on the Plastic Fortunes LP is by RhymeAudials DJ, Volatile, ranging from hip-hop head bangers to soulful melodies. Coupled with the flawless flow and insightful lyrics of Fonetiks, the end result is a complete buffet with an offering for all musical tastes.
Plastic Fortunes will include guest appearances from Able MC, Optamus (Downsyde Crew, Obese Records/Opt Shop Records), Wisdom 2th (Green&Gold Records), and Marksman.
Yes. All the local traps here in Perth City, Western Australia. Some memorable gigs have been:
- Supporting Adelaide heavyweights, the Funkoars
- Make Poverty History concert
- New Years Eve performances
- Hyperfest
- Short appearance at the 2007 Southbound concert.
Way to many to list. We have very diverse tastes from all different genres so I would be here typing all day. The important thing to note is we do not limit ourselves to influences from solely hip hop. Noone ever stands out by being like everyone else.
Lots; decks, mic's, computers, etc etc.
