Tom Drummond on The RIPEcast!

We're very excited to be featuring an exclusive RIPEcast this week from NuFunk/House producer Tom Drummond of Perth, Australia. Tom forever endeared himself to The Space Cowboys last year with a track he co-produced with Slynk called 'Cow Bwoy Break' (http://bit.ly/cow-bwoy-break). Since the release of that track, Tom and The Cowboys have become pen pals and at our request, Tom was kind enough to put together this funky and eclectic NuFunk/Hip Hop/Breakbeat/Drum 'n Bass mix for The RIPEcast. Enjoy Boys and Girls!

A little more background on this week's guest...
Tom Drummond comes out of sunny Perth, Western Australia. Years spent playing to a variety of different crowds has given Drummond an insight into what works on the dance floor. He studied Jazz music at Western Australia’s Academy of Performing Arts, playing in various funk and hip-hop groups during his college years. And he has supported acts like The Bamboos, TZU and Katalyst, all of which have had a major influence on Drummond's style.

As a producer, Drummond's tracks have been picked up for digital, vinyl and CD release by underground funky-house and breaks labels such as Good Groove, Bombstrikes and Cold Busted and have been played by the likes of Krafty Kuts, A Skillz and Featurecast. As a DJ, Drummond's live sets are rarely restricted to any one genre. Hip hop, funk, breaks, drum n bass, dubstep and house music are all thrown into the mix as long as those tracks fit the criteria: "funky, good-time, party beats that will put a smile on your face".
