In its first outfield exercise, The Operatives have called up one of Brainfeeders main men, Samiyam, whos Hip Hop beats filled with snippets of Soul, Funk, 70s Italian horror flick soundtracks, Nintendo bonus level music, and 90s Hip Hop. Somehow, with this much content, the beats still manage to sound gloriously minimal and disjointed, and freeze frames Electro energy and spits it back out as twisted future Jazz. Dabrye is a fa...n, Daedelus describes him as a thrilling sound to break the sameness, and Flying Lotus is his brother in arms (they collaborate on the project FLYamSAM).

Alongside turntable specialists DJ I-Dee and famed X-ecutioner Total Eclipse. DJ I-Dee has carved out a name for himself in the world of scratch music, having already conquered the battle scene by winning three of its most prestigious titlesthe Disco Mix Club (DMC) USA Supremacy, Scribble Jam and Gong World Supremacyall within six months of each other and by the age of 19.

“...just as b-boys are dancers, I-Dee reminds us that DJs are entertainers.”
- DJ Q-Bert (San Francisco, USA)
