"[3] DJ Vame stated that being "true to the music" is shown by Def Wish Cast's faithfulness to the "original instruments" of hip-hop: two turntables and a microphone.
Def Wish Cast embrace not only the music, but all elements of the hip hop culture, including graffiti art and bboying.
They can be seen bboying in Aust (Down Under Comin Upper), Saturday Night by the Sound Unlimited Posse and one of their latest releases Dun Proppa.
[2] Although Def Wish Cast is characterised by many traditional elements of hip hop, the group has combined the genre's origins in African American culture with their own local identity.
[10] Sereck founded a record label of the same name following the airing of the documentary, and he also united artists from Sydney's hip hop scene to form the Basic Equipment Crew.
[12] Def Wish Cast reunited briefly in 1997 to record and contribute the track "Hear My Raw" for the international compilation Bomb Worldwide.
Due to a very small market for Australian urban music at that time, limited commercial response to their first album and the absence of DJ Vame, Def Wish Cast did not record again as a group for almost decade.
[14] In 2011, Def Wish Cast released a digital single and video clip for "Dun Proppa",[15] a song from their upcoming album Evolution Machine.
