Brim – Bombin’ (7″) [Unsettled Scores Records USR45-002]

Unsettled Scores Records is thrilled to announce the long-awaited release of Bombin’ by Brim, available for the first time ever on 7” vinyl.

Bombin’ is the iconic title track from Dick Fontaine’s acclaimed graffiti documentary that originally aired on UK’s Channel 4 in early 1988. The documentary follows the journey of graffiti artist Brim in 1985, as he travels from The Bronx, New York to various locations across the UK, encountering legendary figures including a young Goldie (MBE) and 3D (Massive Attack / The Wild Bunch). The track became legendary to a generation of graffiti artists and Hip Hop lovers who grew up with the documentary.

Brim Fuentes, is the founding member of graffiti crew TATS CRU, and was born in the South Bronx, NY. He began hitting New York City Subway trains, in the late 1970s, all the way through to the mid-1980s and was featured in many important Hip-Hop and graffiti culture documentaries including “All City” (1983), BBC’s “Beat This: A Hip-Hop History” (1984) and Channel 4’s “Bombin’ (1988).

Remastered from a recently discovered cassette tape in the collection of Bombin’ composer David Toop, Unsettled Scores Records is proud to finally release the full-length recording, including previously unheard verses by Brim.
