I caught up with Jade from the band ‘Coast’ about their contribution to the new Loop compilation ‘Select 009′ and the party this Saturday night.

Just released on Loop Recordings is the new long-player from rap musician Tommy Ill. Combining samples and tracks long thought forgotten, Mr Ill mashes them up with his upbeat and often humorous vocal style. Here he is chatting the new record.
