are about to drop their debut single Big City Life on 1^st August 2005 and the hype has already started with Radio 1 DJ’s Joe Whiley, Pete Tong and Zane Lowe blowing up the airwaves by featuring the track on their shows.

The boys, a.k.a Preetesh and Marlon, have a distinctive, unique and refreshing sound.  Falling somewhere between the genres of hip-hop and soul but drawing on many other influences the track talks about the struggle of city life and the chaos of modern society. 

Meaningful, deep and well thought out lyrics on a backdrop of heavy beats and a mixture of different vocal styles, Big City Life communicates on all levels.  Thought provoking music with a positive message. 

Their forthcoming album Signs of a Struggle has a title that suggests a similar theme.

A fresh, focused and creative track.   

So do the boys live up to all the hype? Does the sun really shine?  Let me hear you make some noise!!!
