CONTRAHESIVE, PORNO and LUUDA
Reflection is Relative
Great REVIEW: CONTRAHESIVE from the famous music magazine GROOVE
"Contrahesive
Reflection is relative
Svedjebruk (translated into English)
4/5
Yep, damn what a great start Reflection is relative offers:
"One" is a very heavy old school headnodder. It reminds me of Looptroop both in sound and delivery (and of course beatmaker Robin Banks is in Västerås), or why not old foxes Black Sheep. And , how bizarre it may sound, it feels completely natural that, alternating; Porno kicks in English and Luuda in Swedish.
"Gutter music" with guest Kid Colt is also a cool headbanger which would work just as well in Bed-Stuy as in Hässelby. Above all, both rappers fit together with Robin Banks savage beats, the rap is triggered by the fat beats and vice versa, to form a whole which is quite sick good.
The sky is the limit , boys!
The only complaint is that the CD is a bit too long. Although many of the 15 tracks are tight, it becomes a bit too much, If birds could talk and Can not change could easily have been cut out, which would meant that Reflection is relative would have been a modern Swedish hip-hop classic. Now they fall on the finishing line but show that the underworld is still alive.

A few REVIEWS
New review in English from the popular Music blog Meadows!
A great site to read about new Swedish music.
English translation:
"Amok has actually succeeded in making a CD which is different from anything else I have ever heard on the Swedish hiphop scene.
It kicks, sizzles, turns: it might fit somewhere in between RJD2 and Hangar 18 ... in Sweden, they have plowed their own little furrow. They are welcome to stay there and continue to develop."

BIO :
PORNO was born in the heart of Sweden in the year of '85.
Shortly after he moved to Swaziland where he wore MC-hammer pants, his cap backward and rocked the lyrics to "Ice, ice, baby". In '93 he copped "Lethal injection" with Ice cube and started listening to all corners of rap.
As Swedish HipHop began to emerge from the underground around '97 he started writing his own lyrics, and by '99 he was performing and recording tracks with beats produced by D-rock under the group name High, Down and Dirty.
Porno has been enjoying working the hiphop scene in Sweden for some time now.He has been battling whoever he can sink his murderous jaws in, and when he's not doing that you can find him studying Sociology/Criminology in the land which "Top-Model" forgot, UK.
In 2009 he took up studying again, jumped into Law and Criminology.
He has dropped 10 CDs and several Netplays, and he has managed with his skill and tenacity to create a wide fan-base in both Sweden and the UK, and thanks to Myspace, that crowd is now in more countries than we can count.
By 2012 he will be living in a playboy mansion.

Ey! Thank you for adding me! it really mean a lot! Hope you enjoy the music. So instead of leaving lame "Download my EP on iTunes" comment" I am known for leaving you off with a gnarly joke from my favorite comedian Mitch Hedberg!
"If I was the headless horsemen’s horse, I would fuck with that dude. "Yeah, we’re going that way. We’re not headed towards the hay.""
