Bingethinkers

BINGETHINKERS Where Are They Now… Available: February 11, 2011 Released by: LookUP Records Distributed by: Obese Records Over the past half-decade, Bingethinkers have built their reputation as one of Sydney’s most dynamic hip hop outfits - electrifying audiences with their remarkable live show. The group is comprised of MC Rinse on the mic, DJ 2Buck (Dialectrix, Gully Platoon) on the decks (and beats) and producers Aeon (a member of Sydney rock/electronica act Decoder Ring) and PSYKEone on the beats. This combination of high energy, boom-bap production and razor sharp lyrics create an unmatched collection of individual talent sharing a single ethos. Following up from the release of their Shelf Life mixtape (2007), Bingethinkers formed LookUP with fellow Sydneysiders Scott Burns and Thats Them. After various mixtape appearances and an exclusive 12" vinyl release in 2010, Bingethinkers embark on their long-awaited full length debut, Where Are They Now... A fusion of classic 90’s hip hop with the futuristic sounds of glitchy electronica, Where Are They Now is true artistic cohesion, a melting pot of musical influences that includes traditional instruments, soul, electronica, rock, dub, dancehall & funk combined to create a sound like nothing else; the Bingethinkers. From the lead single “The Bust” (featuring Dialectrix) to the reggae-tinged “AUS Stylin” featuring Vida Sunshyne, it is clear that Where Are They Now is more the sound of an established crew cementing their musical legacy than that of a fresh collective honing their craft. MC Rinse’s infectious flow is on full display in “The Bottle”, while the crew’s impeccable production and instrumental prowess gets the heartfelt send off in the closing “Stick Around.” In “News Report” The Binge team up with MCs Mantra and Newsense and play on the panic stricken paranoia and shock tactics of 24 hour news to the back drop of siren-fuelled production. These are but a small offering of the infectious personalities and gifted work presented on Where Are They Now… After establishing their name in the underground for 6 years, Bingethinkers are ready to break the surface.
