SUPERORGANIC - Spirit Level (EP) Announcement + Tale Of The Tape Video Drop + 10 Questions

 

SUPERORGANIC Marks Three Years of Sonic Alchemy at the EFG London Jazz Festival.

On Friday 21 November 2025, SUPERORGANIC celebrates three years of boundary-breaking sound with the live launch of their debut project, Spirit Level EP, at Lower Third, London, as part of the EFG London Jazz Festival.

Founded by Fusion and DJ Porge, SUPERORGANIC is a culture lab where hip hop, jazz and spoken word collide. The result? A high vibration fusion of boom bap beats, conscious lyricism and soulful improvisation that feels both deeply rooted and boldly futuristic.

Fusion, producer, presenter and visionary curator, has long stood at the crossroads of UK hip hop and cultural storytelling. From pirate radio and MTV Base to producing underground classics with Estelle, Fallacy and Durtty Doogz, his influence runs deep in Britain’s musical DNA. With SUPERORGANIC, he’s built a creative community of musicians, MCs and poets pushing the boundaries of sound and spirit alike.

The Spirit Level EP was born during a creative retreat in the Norfolk countryside, a space for artists to reconnect, recharge and create freely. “We wanted to give artists the room to recalibrate and make without limits,” says Fusion. “The EP captures that energy, and we’re thrilled to share it for the first time at our third anniversary show.”

Expect a live experience that blends the spontaneity of jam sessions with the power of spoken word and the pulse of hip hop, a sonic manifesto designed to heal, reveal and inspire change.

The celebration also previews SUPERORGANIC’s upcoming film, Tale of the Tape, tracing the movement’s journey from underground sessions to cultural force.

SUPERORGANIC sat down with Wordplay Magazine to answer our infamous 10 Questions:

1. So tell me, how did it all begin? What sparked your love for music?

My real love for music really began in 6th form. A good friend at the time, Daryl Williams, had come to the  UK from Trinidad and he was just switched me on to new music. Through our friendship, I got more into reggae and discovered the power of hip hop - artists like Public Enemy, Big Daddy Kane and NWA blew my mind. Couldn't have had a better education in the culture. Daryl was part of a little rap crew around the way, so it wasn't long before I became their DJ. Caught the bug and never looked back.

2. Who are some artists that influence you and that you want to work with in the future?

One of my earliest and biggest musical influences was Nas. His mix of reality raps, street wise poetry and soulful, jazz inspired beats was so relatable for me growing up in Tottenham. As a kid, I wasn't deep in the streets but I was seeing everything. Nas felt like a street journalist and I related. In fact, by this point I'd become a music journalist writing about hip hop and producing beats. Within two years, I found myself sitting down with Nas interviewing him about his journey. It was at that point I realised how powerful manifestation was and I believe in it now more than ever.

3. What projects do you have coming up and can you give us any info on them?

Right now the focus is fully on our SUPERORGANIC 'Spirit Level' EP. Excited to share this with the world because it captures the essence of what we do - mixing golden era hip hop with spoken word, jazz and high vibration music. It features a lot of our favourite artists - Br!dge comes with big energy and a fresh twist on reggae music; Apex Zero always comes with righteous fire and heartfelt lyricism; Rory brings blues vibes and raw emotion, Watusi87 is crazy with the word play and AyHearts effortlessly blends spoken word with next level flows. So many names to mention; you've just have to listen to the EP, which drops early next year. From basement jams to sold out shows, we've created a musical family and I'm really excited to deliver an EP featuring my production and the sounds of my collective, as well as amazing musicianship from a phenomenal team. You'll get to hear it live on stage for the first time at the EFG London Jazz Festival on 21st November. Our last two anniversary shows sold out, so we're excited for this one.

4. How would you describe your sound?

Our sound draws inspiration from that analogue era: soulful vibes, crackly vinyl and hard beats pioneered by the likes of Pete Rock, DJ Premier and innovators such as Dilla; but we also soak in the vibes of the UK: tapping into grime, 2 step, drill, funk, jazz and hybrid sounds. What brings it all together is a love of 'high vibration' music that can inspire and uplift. So, when we draw for the free flowing energy of jazz and tap into the raw honesty of spoken word and storytelling, it creates a combination that you won't hear anywhere else.

5. What's your proudest moment to date so far as an artist?

Really proud of a song I produced called 'The Greatest Show' for the late great jungle/DnB MC - Skibadee. It was a left field record that fused together hard hip hop beats, orchestral strings, jump up energy and a phenomenal cast of MCs including MC D, Skeme, Shabba D and the mighty MC Det. It was during the Channel U era and grime ruled. The people voted and made our song No. 1 for several weeks, in front of the biggest names in the UK and even topping the charts ahead of Akon and Ja Rule. The music video went on to win awards. After the success of 'The Groundbreaker' and 'Big N Bashy' I knew I could take things further with my free wheeling approach to music. I realised I didn't have to fit in to stand out.

6. Do you have any advice for our readers who may be trying to play the mad game of music?

Great question. I think, firstly, acknowledge that it is a mad game. Many of us make music with deep passion and conviction but the 'business' is based on markets, analysis of trends and return on investment, you are providing a service. That's hard to manage emotionally, sometimes, because we put so much into it.

Take the time to hone your craft, learn about the music you're making, the people who came before you, be of service to that community as you grow in your talent and recognition. At a certain point your talent and effort may get the attention of the industry. It's important then that you understand that you always have to bring value to every situation: if it's performing at a show? You need to bring an audience; if it's recording or collabs? You need to bring your A Game and see the end goal; if it's putting your music out? You need to have a marketing vision on how to create visibility and excitement around your release. It means you probably have to put in extra work and build a good team focused on developing you as an artist.

You'll also have to learn about the business too and the wider world of the creative industries. If you can make music that feeds your spirit and feeds you and your people you're winning. I don't believe in making music purely to make money, but I don't think we should suffer to make music either, it's all about balance.

7. Are there any artists on your radar right now that we should check out?

All the artists that we champion at SUPERORGANIC deserve to be heard, go and listen to our 'SUPERORGANIC: Tale of the Tape' mixtape which is out now and features many of the artists that have been on our stage. Follow us on socials, where we highlight fresh artists across the world who are consistent with high vibration music across genres.

8. What albums are on heavy rotation on your Spotify playlist currently?

Currently playing Dave's new album which is a masterpiece; happy that Jay Electronica has finally released some long overdue music and Clipse made a triumphant return; Little Simz and Namesbliss are killing it and it's great to see artists such as Bashy and Wretch 32 continue to grow year after year, as they mature and speak on new topics.

9. What do you like to do when you're not making music?

I'm a philosopher at heart, so I'm always researching: YouTube deep diving, reading and checking out podcasts and docs. When I can, I love to travel and I'm a real foodie that's all about creating new flavours in the kitchen, trying out ideas and exploring cultures through cuisine. My first love was always drawing and painting, so I like to do that when I can.

10. Name Three things you can't live without when in the studio? 

Good vibes, snacks and my MPC.
