At last, Hypomanic Productions is able to present the first in a series of fresh beats released for free to anyone with creative flair as well as an ear for great music.
Exploding with soul, this first offering from producer Miss Tofelees showcases just how Hypomanic explores the music of the past whilst adding a contemporary twist. Releasing music of this quality for free, it’s easy to see why the collective has already begun to receive admiration from its peers.
“Crisp hip-hop beats – and at my favourite price. Always good to see people doing it for the music, not for the dough.”
– Roots Manuva (MC)
“The beats have that classic Hip Hop essence, just so soulful”
– Just Muz, MC & Spoken Word Artist (Radio One)
“I like the concept, but MORE SO the ethos! THIS IS WHY I DO MUSIC!”
– Paradise the Prolific (MC and founder of MOBO-nominated 57th Dynasty collective)

Already involved with Hypomanic Productions is Spida Lee, who ever since his 2005 single ‘Verbal Assassin’ grabbed the attention of the underground, went on to release his own debut album The Foundation and has since been played on Channel U and MTV Base as well as BBC Radio 1 and 1Xtra. He has also opened for Skinnyman up and down the country and supported artists including Cappo, Lewis Parker and John Robinson.
His newest release, the ‘Make Money EP Part 2’ is available at the Miss Tofelees bandcamp website.
If you have the talent but need an audience, Hypomanic Productions could be the way you get the recognition you deserve. We hope you join the movement and sign up so you can be a part of what we aim to achieve over the next 12 months!
