1995. Growing up in South Gippsland, Rients Johannes Huitema shared a love for hip hop music with his basketball buddies. Between street B-Ball sessions and Street Fighter 2 battles on their Super Nintendo, rap became an unlikely influence for the new age teens. Keeping a cynical yet empathetic view of the lyrical content, the G funk sparked an inspiration for what is now his ultimate release - Renelophus.
2018. Introducing: Anastasia Lastovirya on vocals, Lauren Patullo on trumpet and keys, Claus Tanjung on bass, Robert Saad on percussion and Alex Velasco on electric guitar.
Listeners are treated to a full fruit salad of moods leaving a strange hip hop after-taste. Each song is entirely different to the next and are brought together with the unmistakable vocal acrobatics of the delectable duo.
