Biografie
Exploring the merge between grooves and jazz, RADIOHOP is an Amsterdam based fusion/hip-hop group with members Johnny Biner (Guitar), Joshua Lutz (Keys), Joel F Svedberg (Bass) and Euan Jenkins (Drums). We look to push and explore new sonic areas whilst maintaining the legacy and feel of the greats, gaining inspiration across the spectrum from Herbie Hancock to Kaidi Tatham to Azymuth.
During the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, we had all moved to Amsterdam for Jazz studies. After quickly finding each other through jamming and recognising similar tastes, we began to rehearse regularly, delving into the intricacies of J Dilla and the art of hip-hop, whilst exploring our own sound and shaping compositions from influences of jazz, fusion and soul. Since then we have maintained a steady presence in the scene with own shows, collaborations (including an album with producer Kid Sublime), and performing as the rhythm section for other artists such as JuJu Rogers, Maydien, Halfpastseven, Duimalot, Helena Casella and Sydney Lowell. We have also worked together with communities and event creators, such as Steppin' into Tomorrow, Milieu Events and Super-Sonic Jazz.
Currently we are in the process of releasing our music. With our first single having debuted in June 2023, we have an extensive release schedule for the future, including two albums.
