Dapanji ~ 'Born To Break' :: Phantasm Records Releases 13 February, 2009
Get your springtime stomping shoes out of the closet early this year. This January, the year starts out correctly in Israel with what is already being talked about as a new standard setting album. After over a year hard at play in the studio, Dapanji is ready to release their debut album, “Born to Break”, a collection of ten floor thumpers arranged for maximum sound quality and booty-grinding incentive. Thick, groovy psychedelic trance with nifty sojourns into dynamic breakbeat sessions await you in this innovative artist jewel.
With nearly 25 years of experience between the belts of these two, Dapanji, consisting of DJs Ranji and Dps of Israel, each of them whom have been regularly touring their country for over a decade, bringing pumping sounds and dancefloor gyrations to countless parties and events, performing alongside such greats as Absolum, CPU, Bliss, Exaille and many others.
Today, the combined prowess and talent of these two master sound arrangers lends itself to a dancefloor shaking album set to spread its vibrations across the planet. Their release, “Born to Break”, wastes no time this year setting yet higher bars for psychedelic music.

Track by track:
ATTENTION PLEASE!
A certain infamous white-trash rapper grabs your attention over fierce power stabs before a heavy-as-fuck kick & bass combo with the volume rstson 11 bu out of the speaker & grabs the listener by the throat, refusing to let go until you're dancing your ass off.. Careful, it'll take you 8 Mile high...
COSMIC SPACE
Mad sounds spiralling ever upward introduce a new-psy sound, with cut up vocals over an ever changing sonic soundscape, powered by pumping bass & buzz saw sharp synths that push towards night time frenzy..
LSD 25
Inspired by Hoffman - and not Dustin! - this slab of hallucinogenius starts with a delicately picked guitar but soon descends into a full on psy-tech orgy of mayhem. Punctuated by ultra dirty percussion and the maddest panning fx & lead interplay you ever heard, this is state of the art trippin' soundtrack music..
THE DOG IS TALK
Cavernous reverbed notes ricochet around the enormous space in the intro to this fierce blaster.
A huge dead-of-night floorfiller destined to find a place in the most twisted of psy - sets..
As the girl says, "We could use some illusions"..
CRACKING SKULLS
Unearthly, disorienting strings set the scene before a huge crunch ushers in duelling stereo synths and more of the cut up mayhem that Dapanji are justly becoming famous for.. A stunning exercise in Class A power trance that bulids & builds to its acid-drenched conclusion..
CHEMICALLY
Another manifestation of the Hoffman legacy, here Dapanji rack up another superbly produced tribute to tripping in their inimitable style.. A lysergic tinged romper-stomper to drag the chemically enlightened to the trancefloor..
DANCE 2DA MUSIC
More familiar vocals - can't quite remember the name of the singer! - as the boys revisit a floorfiling classic and inject it with their own particular brand of psychedelic poison.. You'll be hearing this everywhere this spring for sure..
DON'T STOP
With a sound so huge its like the aural equivalent of an American football player on steroids, "Dont Stop" is another example of Dapanji's ability to cram a labful of sonic experimentation into a track yet still keep it primarily a dance tune.. another psy-high monster for the floor.. Just try & stop it!!
KIDS
The intro sounds like C3PO & R2D2 arguing, but soon gives way to another soul stirring rocker.. razor edged percussion sounds & clattering, juddering synths battle it out in cyberspace.. the winner takes off!!
GALACTICA
Closing proceedings on a debut to remember, "Galactica"'s intro features lush eastern inflected strings & a hypnotic guitar figure before a diamond hard kick 'n' bass combo stomps up out of nowhere to propel us into the stratosphere.. with sub-sonic bass, and dirty, punching synth stabs.. Mesmerizing sonically mangled voices complete the job on your already damaged psyche.. Busted!!
