Good Buddha 101 (or the skinny on how to be
fat)
1998- It's Sydney and live music is a rolling beast of style melding
into style- and in the midst is Good Buddha. Continually burning
up the dance floors with a complex mix of psychedelia, roots and
the natural progression of hip hop, they create a unique sound
and gained a loyal following of people who expect the unexpected.
for 3 years they honed skills and flexed their imaginations until
the release of their formidable 1st album, 'Skillathon'.
Critically acclaimed with 3 hi-rotation singles on national radio,
and the 'Ultrasound' clip played all over the shop, it was a launching
pad for the band and a yardstick for original music in Australia.
Closely on Skillathon's heels came the 'Harry Told Me' ep, the
'Naturalogical' Remix ep, and the now classic collab. with the
Resin Dogs on 'Take Off', again hitting hi-rotation on both radio
and TV in 2003.
Cut to 2004- Futurhistrix!! Through some intense studio sessions
and a ridiculous touring schedule involving numerous national
tours, appearances on festivals from the Big Day out to Splendour
in the Grass, Woodford to Advenjah,plus headline, club and Uni
gigs, comes Good Buddha's greatest album, tightest band and freshest
outlook-
With Glenn Humphries on samples/keys, Mark Walton on decks 'n'
effecks, Xela MC/ Al "guitar" Young, M dat Dosh on drums
and Andy A.N.D. Lane on bass and mic, PLUS the pure vocal pepper
of Ranji- the future of oz hiphop/soul is history!
GEDDINTOIT!!!!!!
