"Something to motivate to, something to motivate you.
The more travellin´ I do, the more wise I become."
"Traveller Records have been putting out corking hip hop, downbeat records for a few years now and this release is not to be sniffed at either. A lush cover of "Summertime" leads this 7" for me. It´s a very covered tune but I doubt you´ve heard it done in THIS fashion before. Super chilled beats for headz on side A´s "Adore" too with rhodes, jazz beats and jazz vocals... it all rides along nicely"

"Velben is one of the freshest new dudes outta Detroit via Scandinavia. Raw honest soul music. We need more of that shit."

“Shit is hot. Yo, I got to tell you that, in a day when everybody is so preoccupied with whatever new sound they’ve fabricated in their minds, that there’s still true blue hip-hop out there. I’m glad to see that there are still people that are focused on the basics!”

"Lovely new independent hip hop track from Finland - cool vocal on the a-side but we lurrrrve the instrumental of ´Kept It Movin´….played it on the Forwardsbackwards show we do on www.milkaudio.com and had 3 emails about it the first day the show was posted!"
- Nik Weston / Mukatsuku Records
"Lovely, crunchy horns sit sweet with the hyper-compressed bassline and crusty hip hop break….superb vocals keep the head-nod on.. Can´t fault this track at all…. You need this in your life!"
- Jon Kennedy / Grand Central, Tru Thoughts
