Biography

Why do most experienced hip-hop fans value an unreleased demo tape from 1994 more than half a year of contemporary releases? Why do a lot of people prefer A Tribe Called Quest or the records of Pete Rock to pressing the play button under the link of a Youtube video from 2014? The answer to the immortality of the „golden years“ lies in the formula of making the tracks. Besides originality, the most important feature of hip-hop has always been authenticity. In the job of a producer it meant early getting up to arrive to the record shop first; or travelling for hours if necessary, to get a non-used break from the record of a French jazz saxophonist. The samples get hammered in the Akai MPC with fingers blackened in endless hours of crate diggin' – so that later rusty rhymes could be added by the dopest MCs. The young Hungarian producer/Dj, Rawmatik not only knows this formula but also applies it in a perfect way. His music is pure boom-bap hip-hop with heavy drums, based on dusty rock, quality funk, soul, or even classical music samples and with a rythym that makes every single hoody head start knockin'.
