This world is in a state of flux. This decade has seen changes that would seem an absurd fictional tale, if you were to explain it to someone a generation before. We express and gauge ourselves by social media's omnipotent scrutiny, the ephemeral gaze of minute by minute digital memories, the left and right pull of societal swing, and the disposability of creativity.

Mayday is D'Opus & Roshambo's call for concern and observation – a new nine-track release that frames their world, as it stands now. The Canberra hip-hop duo are launching their third album at Transit Bar this Friday October 28 at 8pm.

D'Opus forms a production landscape that treads between familiar frequencies and speculative horizons. Rich bass, jarring and soft synthesisers alike, nods to a history sampling with a tighter focus on live instrumentation form the core of the songs. This is where Roshambo completes the message, varying his delivery and tone in the same ebbs and flows as the lyrics in his storytelling. Roshambo has matured, exploring subjects such as the tiring sleeplessness that comes with being a father, the numbness and acceptance of loss, and the complications of creativity. Check out our review of the album here.

For your chance to win one of two double passes to D'Opus & Roshambo's Mayday album launch this Friday October 28, 8pm at Transit Bar, all you have to do is email allan@bmamag.com with the subject line, 'D'Opus & Roshambo'.

Email the editor with your name, phone number and address to see if you can pick up yourself a one of these.
