Shout-out of the Week: Two Fresh

Watch This! That is the name of Two Fresh's new "instrumental rap" EP, released Monday for free on twofreshbeats.com. The twin brother DJ duo — often accompanied by Colby Buckler on drums for live performances — is one of my favorites, and I had the pleasure of interviewing Sherwyn Nicholls (one half of the team) at Electric Forest last year.


In 9th grade, he bought his first computer and started making music. He tried college for a bit, but decided that being a musician was what he really wanted. And his passion has shown. The brothers were signed with 1320 Records and Elm & Oak Records before they were 21.

Two Fresh's sound continues to evolve, but stays true to the hip-hop inspired jams I first heard jumping off the stage at its shows. If you're looking for something to make you dance, or if you like hip-hop, be sure to give these guys a listen. You can find more tracks on SoundCloud. And don't stop there, because you never get the full experience unless you go live.
