East Coast rap from the bottom of the planet! This debut album from Big Fat Raro (see also Tokerau) features eclectic beats and vocals – from soothing triphop to scathing breaks. ‘Otepoti Unnaground’ features a diverse collective of Dunedin hiphop artists. In a city famous for the Dunedin Sound this is a different flava of ‘the sound’ (yet still uniquely Dunedin).
100% New Zealand music.
PARENTAL WARNING: Explicit lyrics. Strong Kiwi accents.

The debut album from Tokerau. Recorded at The Regent in 1999 and released in 2000. Until now this rare album was only available through good timing. Warpholez of thA mind (as the title suggests) is an exploration of Tokerau’s inner thoughts, with poetic lyrics which tell a story and take you on a journey. Full of gems with input from friends, transients and urban legends from the legendary Dunedin city and hinterland.

The first EP from Tokerau, first released in 2001. A hit on Dunedin Student Radio. Refreshingly acoustic and lowfi, featuring reggae, hints of the Dunedin-sound and a wicked sense of humour.
