Playdoe
It's That Beat

unsigned

WE SAY

This is Infectious and fun party music from Johannesburg duo Playdoe, made up of DJ Sibot and MC Spoek Mathambo. Their debut mini-album with the same title as this track was released on Try Harder last October, with UK gigs now lined for the coming weeks and a digital EP penciled for April. Early press has been plentiful - among it a gig preview feature in this week's Time Out. It's That Beat straddles many fine influences within hip hop and electro - the results are nothing short of addictive. Playdoe are available for records and publishing. Booking is Serena Parsons at Primary. JF London gigs: February 27, Cargo EC2 / February 28, Play It By Ear Club at The Monarch NW1
