A seasoned performer, Rainman has toured Australia’s major cities and regularly performs locally in Brisbane. He has played alongside Grandmaster Flash, Ice Cube, Z-Trip & Soup (Jurassic 5), Jungle Brothers, The Herd, Urthboy, Hilltop Hoods, Muph n Plutonic, TZU and Horrorshow to name a few. As a guest collaborator with The Coalition Crew, Rainman has earned festival stripes playing Big Day Out, Woodford Folk Festival, Sounds of Spring and Parklife.

Rainman's new album 'Bigger Pictures' (2012) features some of Australian hip hop’s finest producers including Chasm (Astronomy Class), Count Bounce (TZU), DJ Bonez & Sammsonite (The Optimen). www.soundcloud.com/rainmanmusic

This is dope. Great sample manipulation and it's just smooth as hell.

rating:  4/5
Maybe I like this song because I've got bad eyesight too. But the great production and flow certainly helps.

rating:  4/5
Great production. Great flow. The vocal delivery reminds me a little of Urthboy and the production has that awesome soulful style you'd expect from C...
