"If It Ain't Broke, Remix It." by Newselph. "...From the cold corners of the Canadian soil, Illect's Newselph returns with some fiery furnace baked heat in the form of a remix album. On If It Ain't Broke, Remix It, Newselph carries on tradition in the spirit of Hip Hop legends like Pete Rock, Erick Sermon and Buckwild in the sacred art of remixing and refixing. Like the boom baptists before him, Newselph's ear hears transmissions reserved for angels and dolphins. He takes tracks that in their original incarnations are perfectly fine, banging even, and gets all up in the inner workings of said slaps to create something entirely different. For his latest release, he mines his backyard and reworks ten tracks from his Illect labelmates... Kintsugi is the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery by mending the areas of breakage with lacquer dusted or mixed with powdered gold, silver, or platinum. From a philosophical standpoint, kintsugi treats breakage and repair as part of the history of an object rather than something to disguise. The same is true of If It Ain't Broke, Remix It. Even though Newselph deliberately 'broke' and took these original songs apart, he lovingly rejoins the estranged elements and puts them back together while adding new chapters to an ever-evolving story. The cracks become contours, and there is much more to discover beyond the seemingly chipped edges. With this masterful work, Newselph adds a new vivacity to the lifeblood of the remix and makes a strong argument as to why remixes should remain, if not more so, a staple in Hip Hop music and culture..." #newselph #illectrecordings #ifitaintbrokeremixit Connect with Newselph https://instagram.com/newselph https://open.spotify.com/artist/6NnI0... https://twitter.com/newselph https://newselph.com Connect with Illect Recordings https://illect.com https://illect.bandcamp.com https://facebook.com/illect https://instagram.com/illect https://soundcloud.com/illect https://open.spotify.com/user/illectr... https://twitter.com/illect https://youtube.com/illectrecordings

As seen on VIBE Magazine - https://www.vibe.com/2019/10/premiere-sareem-poems-no-fly-zone Vinyl / CD: https://illect.bandcamp.com/album/88-to-now The freshly minted duo, Sareem Poems and Newselph, have quickly developed a knack of staying grounded while consistently taking it to the next level. With the first visual from their 88 To Now album, the emcee and producer combo objectively look at life as equal parts peaches and cream as well as gravel and stones. Over a laid-back slice of Jazz with sprinkles of sax and slaps, Sareem glides through air traffic and dropping the types of gems that can only come from life experience. You'll have no choice but to stop, chill and realize that "it is what it is". This song isn't just music you will play. This jam is the soundtrack to your struggle and subsequent success. 88 To Now is out now on Illect Recordings.

"88 to Now" by Sareem Poems & Newselph Vinyl: https://illect.com/collections/vinyl/products/sareem-poems-newselph-88-to-now-vinyl-lp Merch & Bandcamp: https://illect.bandcamp.com/album/88-to-now Streaming: https://snd.click/88tonow Older heads often look back at the eighties with fond memories and rightfully so. That decade saw the arrival of the Air Force One sneaker, countless classic albums and the rise of Hulkamania. 1988, in particular, was smack bang in the middle of the first golden era of Hip Hop. That's where Sareem Poems and Newselph begin this musical journey while carrying us into the present day. Don't be fooled into thinking that this is a throwback project aimed to cash in on nostalgia. It is very much a forward-thinking manifesto of two men who have survived in the valley and thrived on the mountain top. The chemistry between emcee and producer is impactful from the opening and sparks loving recollections of dynamic duos like Gang Starr and Run The Jewels. Each man does their job and does it well. Newselph provides a slew of chunky slaps with live instrumentation peppered all over. However you like your beats - stripped down or beefed up - there is a lot here for you to sink your teeth into here. Sareem Poems' verses strike a skillful balance between youthful spirit and hard-earned wisdom in all his stories. He speaks life into his children and provides them with life-saving game on I'm Right Here. He lets his two boys know that even though they are a potential target in 'Merica, they are still fearfully and wonderfully made. The project closes with the epic Matters Of Man two-piece which feature Chris Orrick and label-mate Sivion. Sareem and friends honestly tackle the idea what masculinity is, and more importantly, what it isn't. So prepare to look back, and then go forward. 1988 was a dope year, but the "now" is even better.
