The first Australian Hip-Hop artist with a U.S release...
Reaching out to the world from their home in Melbourne, Australia, Curse ov Dialect consists of MCs ‘Raceless’ & ‘Vulk Makedonski’, Vocalists ‘Aturungi’ - now known as ‘nothing’ (as in silence) - & ‘August the 2nd’ backed up by DJ / Producer ‘Paso Bionic’.

With a diverse range of backgrounds (Maltese, Macedonian, Anglo-Indian, Maori, and Pakistani), their music comes off as a non-homogenized tapestry of culture. Their political raps, razors sharp writing, unique flows, and standout production accurately represents their knowledge of hip-hop as world music and the multi-cultural climate of their homeland.

Their live show combines unrelenting energy, fine tuned execution, and jaw dropping costumes to create a one-of-a-kind concert experience that tears the hip-hop rulebook to pieces. Curse Ov Dialect leave their mark after just one performance or listen. They launched onto the international stage in 2004 with the support of the Australia Council for the Arts playing at venues across the United States, Europe and Japan. The recent release 'Wooden Tongues' has been well received in the local and international press and signals a new era for the group in that the blend of experimental and more accessible aspects of their music has been achieved with more fluidity and professionalism than in the past.
