Racking up the drops from the Ill Records released Bought Off and Silenced by Gizmos and Toys LP, Cracker Jon and ViolentlyIll release the Rainy Day single. Typical high level wordplay and a sharp beat for a cracking track.

Newcastle Upon Tyne based producer Kub comes with an instrumental entitled A Blue Night. The track is available via Ill Records. This is the second single taken from the upcoming album Patterns in Time.

Ill Records' Yorkshire based producer Hart is back with another track taken from his Moon Jazz LP. Key Tickler describes his process and brings that nu-jazz instrumental sound Hart is known for.

Producer Kub from Newcastle Upon Tyne comes with an instrumental breakers anthem entitled 11AM. Classic Hip Hop and breaks for this rocking beat. Video features the Battalions Cru from Newcastle throwing down in an underpass. This is the first single taken from the upcoming album Patterns in Time.

ill Records signees Cracker Jon and ViolentlyIll release the next single entitled Nothing New which features DJ A.D.S. This one opens with lush strings and a cutting frenzy whist it is announced that there is nothing new under the sun. This is a classing feeling track and Cracker Jon goes in hard.

London born, Sheffield bred Hart brings that  smooth soulful, jazzy arrangement on the single The Nature. The track is a blend of boom bap and jazz. Some may even call it 'nu-jazz'. A complex blend of samples and switching vibe by stanza.

Cracker Jon and ViolentlyIll drop the next single from their Bought Off and Silenced by Gizmos and Toys LP. For The Views has a backing of a cacophony of crazy strings which is quite suitable for Cracker Jon's verbals which cover an endless stream of topics, but at the end of the day Jon simply gets the job done.

The first single from Cracker Jon and ViolentlyIll's Bought Off and Silenced by Gizmos and Toys LP gets the remix treatment from Sumgii. For this time around Grey Skies gets a more standard hard smashing beat, but retains a dark moody feel.

Cracker Jon and ViolentlyIll drop the first single from their Bought Off and Silenced by Gizmos and Toys LP. Grey Skies has a particularly abstract sounding beat and Cracker Jon's high pitched delivery is all about the flow and wordplay. This one also features DJ Jazz T.

Cracker Jon links up with Northern Ireland's Violentlyill and first impressions would have you think the duo equate to an odd pairing but as soon as you sink your teeth into the album you quickly discover what an absolute gem it is.
