A.C. (UK Hip-Hop and Drum’n’Bass MC from London) teams up with Manchester-based producer Ryujin to deliver their ‘End of Times‘ EP. Press release below (followed by the stream, tracklist and download link).

A.C. has been interested in the 2012 prophecy of the end of the world for a while and so decided to base this EP on this theme, of humanity going increasingly mad and destroying itself, while the effects are felt on the psyche of the average man and woman in the street, making them act in unpredictable, selfish and inconsistent ways, which A.C. finds very frustrating and annoying to say the least.

A.C. met Ryujin over twitter and was immediately impressed by his modern sounding hard beats, so instantly wanted to work with him. In case the world does end on December 21st 2012 as is predicted by the Mayan Calendar, they decided to do an EP rather than a whole album, so it could be released before the end of the world!

The EP features the soul singers D-Harmony on the track ‘They Who Dare’, which deals with trying to achieve success in our obstacle-ridden society. A.C. also injects the EP with motivational messages of positivity to help people get themselves self-sufficient, as that seems the only way to not be prey in this vicious climate, while Ryujin’s melodic, yet robust beats give the proceedings the momentum of a runaway train.

A small-but-committed group of writers, bloggers and videographers that (mostly) exist and function all over the D.C. Metro area.
