CoOp Presents has released an all-new compilation album put together by local musician Allysha Joy (30/70). The 14-track LP They're Energised gives us a solid glimpse into the current wave of Antipodean bruk/broken beat artists.
The stacked compilation includes tracks from Sampology & Maia, Johnny Faith, Setwun, Ziggy Zeitgeist, Lanu & Allysha Joy and more.
Allysha explains "The connection began with a guest mix for CoOp Presents Worldwide FM radio show. I was asked to guest on the show, so pulled together some heavy unreleased and unmastered 'Australian' broken sounds.
"The way that this music just effortlessly and lyrically fell together is a testament to the broken beat undercurrent that runs within the jazz and dance music scene down-under. They're Energised connects a scene of deeply talented and inspired musicians, collectively shaping the new wave of uniquely 'Australian' bruk and broken beat music!"
