DAY ONE
Born in 1984 in the city of Torn, the year when Marley Marl produced the first sample of a drum-machine, LL Cool J started recording freshman album Radio, UTFO unintentionally dissed Roxanne, Los Angeles's KDAY became first 100% rap station on the planet & Beat Street movie spread hiphop worldwide (of course, besides short clip of RockSteady Crew in Flashdance and THE first of them all - Wild Style). Music was in his life from the very first steps he made. His first cassette was Fat Boys - Crushin' & though he couldn't understand a word he liked their way of expression, yeah they had funny cover too. Growing up in environment where classics mixed with new styles, he decided to spend a lot of his time digging in the crates. He made first mixtapes on boombox and brought to school parties where he could show'em out for public opinion.
OLDSCHOOL STREET BEATZ
Looking for the perfect beat he finally found the right person on the right spot. Kool Mike is the guy who understands and respects the Culture, enjoys Spike Lee joints and 80s bronx style. Together they made landmark creation of OSB on the local scene. It's a tribute to the pioneers of hiphop, it's about educating people about the roots and history through words, motion pictures and music. It wouldn't be fulfilled without soul & funk specially dedicated to breakin', the samples that were fundamental for producers at that time and still live on. Showing the true appreciation of positive aspects of hiphop.

Dj Finger is representing Mono/Poka from Maygo Records and is their live dj besides doin' cuts & scratches. He already supported artists like Grammatik, Daniel Drumz, Afront, Mes, Twister and played dope beats in clubs around Poland. Lookin' back, he got his turntable setup and within few months he spread the funk in club situated in the beating heart of Torun's City Hall. He's still improving his skills in scratching & beatjuggling, while organising parties in his homecity, in spirit of 5 fundamentals of hiphop, for people who want good flava music and are tired of radio brainwashers, while eF is selecting essential California sounds, oldschool & golden era hiphop, rooted & nu funk, breakbeat, breaks & soul from his vinyl collection and if mainstream then it's the one that has something more than a catchy tune, GOTTA HAVE SOUL.
PEACE goes out to RAPPERS, Dj'S, GRAFFITI ARTISTS, BBOY's & BGIRL's,
BEATBOXERS, SKATE & SNOWBOARDERS around the world that do their thing with passion.
Stay true to the game! Be yourself and enjoi life
