"Bursting onto the scene like an over-inflated colostomy bag, Stacs of Stamina are the freshest, funkiest product out of Sweden since a 3-and-a-half ounce turd that Benny from Abba produced last Tuesday which finally made its way into the North Sea this morning. But forget for now the anal rectitude of Europop, this summer the Stamina boys are drunk at the wheel of a shiny new juggernaut hurtling pell-mell down the highway of music. Prepare, mere mortal, for Eurocrunk. And what is this mysterious new genre, I hear you cry? Yes, you've guessed it, it's another entirely imaginary genre of music that's taking the worldwide music scene by force. A mixture of crazy Euro lyricism and blip-hop over snazzy syncopated beats, Swedish production outfit Stacs of Stamina have here produced the definitive Eurocrunk LP of this century, and centuries to come. It's electronic hip-hop, Jim, but not as we know it. Arriving in the wake of their debut EP on Werk Discs, Mistake Rewind Repeat, Tivoli sees Stamina taking the unclaimed territory between hip-hop and electro by storm, with 11 tracks of crunked-up 8-bit hoptronica that will have even the most ascetic dullards swinging from the rafters to join in the digital love-making. And there's plenty of partner swapping on the mic, with superstars Mike Ladd and TTC adding guest vocals, as well as the latest MC 'on road,' Ears, all throwing their car keys into the bowl."

"Based in London, Stockholm and Bognor Regis, Stacs are younger and fresher than a Phillipino rent-boy, and ready to burst onto the scene like a prize-winning pop-shot in a porno epic. They sidestep the usual hip hop clichés by 'dropping rhymes' that are fatter than your mum's frontbottom, slimmer than a Tic-Tac and more fruity than a carton of Um Bongo. Having traversed Europe, engaging in a series of hip-hoperations and performing alongside TTC and Werk favorites Modeselektor, Stacs are now ready to gush their salty rhymes into your ear with astounding ferocity and vigour. Thus we are proud to present their debut EP for WerkDiscs, a six track smorgasbord of Swede-hop, Euro-rhymes and scando-grime, featuring guest vocals from Big Dada cohort Yarah Bravo and remixes by Planet Mu's Ddamage and TTC Producer, Para One."

Title:	Roll/Stay Beautiful (DJ Wonder Remixes)
Label:	WERK (UK)
Format:	12"
Price:	$10.00
Catalog #:	WERK 011EP

5 track EP. "Stacs of Stamina have managed to make quite a name for themselves in the past year -- on releasing their Tivoli album, a diverse blend of grime, 8-bit pop, hip hop and their self styled Euro crunk they have garnered critical praise and huge acclaim from all corners of the world. Now it's time for them to make a return with a little help from their friends. First up is a remix from someone a little special; Wonder. As Dizzee Rascal's DJ, the man Wonder has been rather busy in the last few years, but he allowed himself time to chop Stacs's 'Roll With It' into devastating pieces and come up with a mix that even surpasses the killer original. Waves of distorted bass bubble up over clipped beats that would give prime dubstepper Skream a run for his money! This is set to be one of the dancefloor grime/dubstep tracks of the year. Flip the record over for another surprise, a remix from the Euro crunk supergroup Radioclit which mangles 'Stay Beautiful' until it sounds like a Germanic anthem to quasi-legal pharmaceuticals and badly shaken cocktails."
