Professor Elemental And His Amazing Friends Album Release
Out today is the brand new album by Professor Elemental. Bringing together a bunch of his talented friends and with superb album artwork and design by the one Ben McCaffrey, this coalition of class is a must in any Prof collection.
With beats by Tom Caruana, along with Mr Frisby, Pete Cannon, Bill and Thom and cuts by Nick Maxwell, the album shines with that unique and priceless Prof style. As exciting as it is inclusive, as uplifting as it is debauched, the album takes the fun side of hip hop and blends it effortlessly with his steampunkery and chap hop swagger.
In a world where image has replaced skill, the likes of Elemental's pure passion are a refreshing change. There is no pretense here. And with beats that lend from everything from swing to disco it feels like he's managed to bottle a party. A wealth of new bangers all topped up with some great remixes makes this the perfect medicine to the winter blues.
As well as a stack of brilliant comics and his patented loose leaf tea, the Prof's music brings a light to the end of the hip hop tunnel. And not just any light - a rainbow coloured strobe! Time traveler, chap hop star and steampunk poster boy, the Prof has a USP that very few could ever hope to compete with. Grab ya copy of this and search through his ridiculously huge back catalogue, history (and the future!) have never sounded so fun.
