The Goods

Fuelled by their mutual love of hip hop, house, soul, boogie and everything in between, producers and multi-instrumentalists Badmandela (Jarrol Renaud) & Rosario Ferraro released their self-titled album ‘The Goods’ in 2016. Featuring a slew of Sydney vocalists, TG was an eclectic mix of techniques and influences, drawing on their experience as producers and session musicians, having cut their teeth with artists the likes of Mac Miller, Charli XCX, Omar, Sampa The Great, Cosmo’s Midnight, Tkay Maidza & Two Another. The album attracted the attention of and ultimate signing to Bastard Jazz (NYC) and led to the addition of talented vocalist Black Tree (Adele, Ngaiire, Taku + Wafia). With Black Tree on board, they burst onto the live scene, opening for Snarky Puppy, FKJ, Onra, Mr Carmack, Jamila Woods, Black Milk, GL, Winston Surfshirt, SilentJay & Jace XL & Oddissee, as well as consecutive guest appearances at the award winning Vivid Live Festival. Their 2018 EP Make Your Move solidified the band’s position as the foremost act in Sydney’s emerging electronic soul scene. 2019’s collaboration with Touch Sensitive on the disco tinged ‘Let’s Roll’ as well as the release of future funk anthem ‘Peach’, heralded a new direction for the band, which was fully realised on their 2020 LP ‘II’, with features from The Delta Riggs & Disco J. 2021 saw the band lock down to work on new material, culminating in a collaboration with UK underground royalty Steve Spacek on the track ‘Feels 4 U’.
