Slim Thugz is the home-grown, newly formed collaboration between The Mile High Sound Movement’s exceptionally dedicated and talented producers Frequent C and The Candyman. Upon recognizing the near-limitless potential of combining their vast and different musical backgrounds ranging from hip-hop to dub, jazz to chill-out, and funk to glitch, Slim Thugz joined forces and began their odyssey towards inundating the Colorado Music Scene with completely original performances; immediately setting their sights on their first EP release with hardly a year of production each. Coining their own genre, “Jazz-Step”, within only weeks of their musical genesis, “Living Dreams” is a masterpiece that single-handedly exemplifies the early goals and ideals of the Slim Thugz dream. In the first 4 weeks after its initial release, the EP was downloaded over 7,000 times and played upwards of 80,000 times through multiples websites all across the globe. Their live show combines crafty remixing and sampling of all-original Slim Thugz material in addition to improvisational embellishment with live instrumentation including keyboards, synthesizers, and sample pads. Slim Thugz also excels at layering your favorite MC’s a-capella vocals over some of the crunchiest, most dance-able and exciting original beats to create perfect party music for a wide variety of audiences.
Their most recent release, the Slim Thugz Fall Sampler (www.slimthugz.bandcamp.com ) has been generating an incredible amount of attention that is propelling them into a very busy fall season, and one the tracks, Sacred Swag, has already made it to the #5 spot on Soundcloud.com’s “Whats Hot” page, so keep your ears to the ground for these kids because they are showing no signs of slowing down anytime soon.
