Jerk Out!

Hey fam, you haven't heard from us in a while, but for good reason! Aside from cooking up mad tasty new beats for our upcoming full-length album, we've been doing a lot of this:



Hope you all are jerkin everything in sight, too! Stay tuned...

Planet Rump DJs in the place to be

What up Rump Nation! The past few months have been sizzling as we continue to pour our hearts, souls and hours into our upcoming album. Each track DJ Tantric produces is doper and fresher than the one before, and taking our time is proving to be the best method for a killer result. With many tracks in the adept hands of Phil Moffa at Butcha Sound, we just have a few more to lay down.

In the meantime, we've been keeping up on our DJ game. We just released Planet Rump Radio #7 today: an eclectic booty-poppin mix that's part NYC underground electro mixtape, part twerk-out mix, part sampler of the latest releases by our favorite major label influences, plus a few bangin remixes thrown in for good measure. So put on your booty shorts, get in front of a full length mirror, crank this mix and warm up to summer! Plus, episodes #1-6 are up on our Soundcloud awaiting your ears, comments, and (free) downloads!

We've also been tearing up the NYC party scene with our tag team DJ sets. We helped the party-loving friends and family of B-Reel warp their new NYC offices into the set of MTV's The Grind circa 1994. We celebrated Chappo's record release and kicked off their U.S. tour with a basement get-down at Dominion. And coming up, don't miss DJ Tantric at Sullivan Hall on June 1 with SNAKATAK and Tessa G. and Dynasty Electric!

Kickstarter success and gettin funky in the studio!

Thank you to all our supporters on Kickstarter for making our dreams come true! We surpassed our goal and raised $2,528 to record our next album, and we've been getting busy at Butcha Sound Studios, Manhattan since mid-January. Using a spaceship console-esque mixing board and analog gear to get the juiciest sounds in the universe, owner/engineer/producer Phil Moffa is taking our tracks to the next level. We are so pumped at how the first few songs are sounding, and we can't wait to share them with you! For now, we can give you a little taste of the studio experience with some snapshots. Peace and love from Planet Rump.
