PHONIC Phonic Blog is all about the music. Run by Members of Phonic Touring we will be regularly posting exclusive tracks, interviews and mixes from our international/local artists and finally some tracks that we think should grace your ears.

Everyone loves a thumping bootleg mashup, and they don’t get much better, or illegal, than Tiptronik’s reworking of the M.I.A track ‘Uraqt’. Rumour is M.I.A’s camp may be suing the Sydney duo because of this track. So, in protest, we’re going to spread the love, exclusively on this blog!

So who are Tiptronik? Well aside from being one of the most-hyped new acts on the Sydney electronic scene, they actually have a fairly well-known past. Seshan Moodley makes up one half of the duo: he was a one-time member of rap/metal outfit Parkside Killers who supported Ice-T and The Beastie Boys. The other 50% of Tiptronik is Ramesh Sathiah, who aside from being creative director at Song Zu also has a history in composition and production, having produced Grinspoon’s first EP.
