• Sounds From Our Town: Tasmanian Hip-Hop

  “Music emanating from Tasmania has generally been pretty much off the radar in terms of mainstream or even underground success or acknowledgment in Australia.” On a trip to Tasmania in April 2007, Tony Mitchell went forraging through fragments of the Tasmanian music scene in search of the underground traces of Hobart hip-hop. This piece - published as a feature in Music Forum - is a result of a forraging which included an interview with Hobart-based porducer Crytearia (this interview can be viewed at the website also).
