Unafraid to call out "café hip hop and bogan rap" by name, urban wordsmith Ryan Leaf has been a beacon of conscientious rhyme since he spat his first nimble lyrics with the Blue Mountains' Down Under Beats Crew in 2004. He spun out of that seminal outfit with supreme confidence on Cycles of Survival in '08 and formed the Gully Platoon with Pegz and Joe New that same year. Hooking up with Plutonic Lab and DJ 2Buck, Audio Projectile mixed affectionate genre homage with progressive fervour in 2010 and The Cold Light of Day was shortlisted for the 2013 Australian Music Prize. Meanwhile, the "feat. Dialectrix" credit has etched a sign of distinction on tracks by Chasm, Thundamentals, M-Phazes and more.
