This isn't just music, this is a protest.
After moving to the cold dystopia of Melbourne former country boy Requiem was left feeling isolated with his back against the wall.
His debut album GRASSROOTS ANARCHY is a brazen revolt against this harsh new environment and an industry that has shunned him; a Molotov cocktail of beats and rhymes, a proverbial middle finger to nay-sayers and corporate giants alike.
Sick of being stepped on Requiem has created ten recipes in his anarchist's cookbook, each littered with socio-political urgency and paranoia.
Lead single 'Apeshit!' lights the fuse while title track and second single ‘Grassroots Anarchy’ is a bomb blast let off in the industry with the intent to cause maximum damage.
Shrapnel ricochets into listeners with Requiem taking a stand throughout. Fiercely independent GRASSROOTS ANARCHY shuns the hype, taking up the arms of street journalism.
Determined, hard-nosed, this is music to riot to.
Beats by Ciecmate, Defiant (Dead Beatz), Doc Felix, Pabstrakt & Wizard (UK).
