After a huge 4 months of touring, capping it off with a huge performance at Splendour in the Grass, B Wise is back with a new single and video.
‘Actin’ Different’ is about embracing your free side, the side where you don’t care what anyone thinks about you and you’re just living in the moment. That feeling of opening the sunroof in the middle of winter, feeling on top of the world. ‘Actin’ Different’ is produced by Juve and mixed by DOPAM!NE, and precedes B Wise’s debut album.
Coming off the big vibes of Feel Something and the celebratory jam The Key.
This year is heating up for B Wise, with exciting news coming any minute. B Wise ‘Actin’ Different’ is out now everywhere, through Elefant Traks.

Somewhere in the musical ether that connects arrays of genres, you’ll find Tigermoth floating through sounds, and feeding off different eras. A healthy dose of Electric Jazz, Boom Bap, psychadelica, world music, and LA beats, make up his musical diet.
Born in the Chinese year of the Tiger, Tigermoth’s (a.k.a. Tim Paterson) beats take you on an aural journey. He is a multi-instrumentalist who chooses to express himself using turntables, samplers and FX. His intelligent mixing attests his abstract turntabilism, while his film background and jazz leanings allow him to compose sets that tell a story.
A prolific producer, Tigermoth has multiple solo releases, and is in high demand for his remix and soundtrack work. He has recorded, performed with and supported a vast array of artists including GZA (Wu-Tang Clan), DJ Krush, MF DOOM, Jon Wayne, Guilty Simpson, Phat Kat, Del the Funky Homosapien, Oh No, Kool Keith, EL-P, De La Soul, The Opus, Gaslamp Killer, and Cut Chemist.
“The Phantom” is the lead single from Tigermoth’s upcoming LP “Gung Fu”. Both the single, and the album are released through Hydrofunk Records, and distributed worldwide through Keep The Feel Ent. / Alpha Pup Records.
As with the album the “The Phantom” video is a sampled collage of East meets West, that takes it cues from Tarantino “pulp” as much as it does Hip Hop. Utilising some upbeat 70s Bollywood funk, and Zen Buddhist inspired narration, “The Phantom” perfectly introduces the themes of “Gung Fu” – evil and good, life and death, yin and yang, but carries it’s story through the lens of a comic book aesthetic – both entertaining and subversively enlightening. You can pre-order Gung Fu 12″ via the link here.

Stylistically, Mojo once again embarks on new territory through collaborations with multiple producers – Steven Schram (Paul Kelly), Joelistics (TZU), jnbo (The Cactus Channel) and Jamieson Shaw (Netflix series ‘The Get Down’).
The album opens with a guest appearance from ‘The Pasefika Vitoria Choir’ and is followed up by features from Hip Hop MC Mirrah (L-Fresh The Lion), Soul music royalty Joshua Tavares and spoken word artist Lay the Mystic.
This time around Juju has taken her eclectic influences and created a seamless and authentically original sound, continuing her dedication to bucking labels, bending genres and doing her own thing. Perhaps the manifold musical incarnations of Juju are symbolic of the manifold pieces that make up her identity. Perhaps this unique blend of Soul, RnB, Blues & Hip Hop is in fact her ‘Native Tongue’.
Through the telling of family history and her own personal experiences, Juju explores her relationships with Elders and Ancestry and how that informs her own identity. Contemplating her Mother’s Indigenous heritage, her Father’s experience as a Filipino immigrant and her own place in the cultural landscape of modern Australia, it is an album about self-discovery and it is her most personal offering to date. It is honest, emotional and intrinsically political.
Lead by a mesmerising beat (courtesy of Joelistics) and the haunting vocal work of the Pasefika Vitoria Choir, Juju treats these opening moments of the new single Native Tongue like a live exorcism; she takes a hand over either side of her chest and turns herself completely inside out, laying her innermost workings bare for all to see. SBS has called it the video clip of the year, check it out above. ‘Native Tongue is available August 24.
Before we left for Europe we were lucky enough to get hit with these in the mail.
‘Rattling the Keys to the Kingdom’ has gone Gold, as has ‘Walking Under Stars’ (the song), which is all kinds of strange.
Also, ‘Higher Feat. James Chatburn’ has gone Double Platinum! Needless to say, we are eternally grateful for all your amazing support of what we do. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hyped to announce the support acts for our 2018 European Tour. Adrian Eagle will be joining us in London, Amsterdam & Warsaw and DISSY will be joining us for our headline shows across Germany.
Warsaw, Berlin and Amsterdam look like being the next shows to sell out, so get in quick! Edit: Fixed. Apologies to the random delivery driver I tagged instead of Adrian Eagle. 😬
