Tom Caruana, a 28-year-old music teacher from Brighton, wcaused quite a stir last year with Enter the Magical Mystery Chambersan album which mixes Wu Tang Clan raps with Beatles instrumentals. Caruana has been releasing records online for years, but nothing had that much impact. He had a Twitter shout-out from Wu Tang member Raekwon, been interviewed by the New York Times and seen more than 30,000 copies downloaded from his website (teasearecords.net). The album's big twist is that many samples are taken from obscure Beatles covers, by everyone from Dionne Warwick to the London Jazz Four. Having matched them so seamlessly with the Clan's tough rhymes and a series of Beatles interview clips, it's obvious Caruana is a producer of considerable imagination, skill and potential.
Following up from last years success, Tom Caruana blends the Wu-Tang’s raps with the rock ‘n roll soul of Jimi Hendrix for this mixtape titled Black Gold.Fans of both the Wu and Hendrix should appreciate this 36 Chambers meets Woodstock mash-up!
