Audio: Lee Bannon - Trill Cosby ft. DLRN, C Plus And Task1 // Mp3

Lee Bannon always comes with that rawness. These distorted, over compressed bassdrums make it sound like it comes straight out of the boombox. That`s his style and we likes it....
Shouts to gg.

Audio: Ariya Astrobeat Arkestra - Album Preview // First Word Records

Ariya Astrobeat Arkestra - Put Leg To Road (Stream)


More new music this week in the shape of the incomparable Ariya Astrobeat Arkestra. You're probably already familiar with their pounding cover of Crosstown Traffic as well as the driving Lost In Kinshasa. Ariya Astrobeat Arkestra formed in late 2007 when members of the kidkanevil live show and First Word stalwarts Homecut began a series of late night afrobeat sessions at Leeds Jazz venue Sela Bar. It was out of these jam sessions that the 8 piece band was born, combining their love of afrobeat with their appreciation of the space jazz pioneers of the 70’s and the free jazz trailblazers of the 60’s, coupled with a hefty nod towards James Brown.

This will be one of the hottest releases in the future. Finest Afro-Jazz meets Heavy-Funk, The Dancefloor is not a slice. Keep your eyes on First Word Records, This Fam is diggin dope artists in the deepest holes of the underground. Stay tuned for more. All relevant infos -> FWR.

Breakin' Dawn is the second Video release off Brother Ali's Lp "US". Visuals are nice produced and are a dependence on the US cover. Rhymesayers in the Lab, always good.

Video: Hezekiah - She Male // Conscious Porn Album

Well. It seems like the brother Hezekiah is some how frustrated with the work his record label is putting in to promote his new album Conscious Porn which you can buy here. He is currently leaking it himself through his twitter. Support this guy and see him at a show. Tomorrow he will play at the creek tavern in Philly. Check it out.

Beat produced by IMAKEMADBEATS

Audio: MellowHype - Blackenedwhite // Oddfuture // Mixtape

edit:


Ok the internet connection here in Ramallah is ok, but to download this mixtape (100mb) it will take a while. So I guess you will just have to take a listen for yourself and download this right here.
From what they tell us it must be a little bit darker compared to their recent tapes. So that sounds promising.

This is what they had to say:

MellowHype ( Left Brain And Hodgy Beats) Finally Releases Their Second Album Entitled BLACKENEDWHITE. Fully Produced By Left Brain, Hodgy Beats Takes On A Darker Note This Time Around. Featuring Appearances By Mike G, Tyler Creator, Domo Genesis, Frank Ocean And The Mysterious Earl Sweatshirt, This Album Is Packed With Gun Sounds, Grams OF Coke And Dead Cops. The Perfect Soundtrack For Mobbing On A Dark Halloween Night.

Tell us what you think.

Audio: Frenk And Stine (MidPoint And N/A Kees) - Awaken Frenk And Stine EP1 // Beat Tape

So after the last "Horror Beat Tape" by MidPoint and Lyle Horowitz which I really liked (that PreZZure feature is still on heavy rotation) MidPoint sends us this new Ep with him and Na Kees as Frenk&Stine. This time they didn`t use samples at all and you can definitely hear that. The beats are naked ... running around in a dark spooky park at midnight.
This is part one of a three part series. Donate or download for free.
Get your horror on. Fuck halloween, listen to this.
