13 Minute Three 6 Medley from Optimus Pikachu...
SAH favorite (and Odd Future opener) Ethereal has an electronic sideproject with fellow Atlanta beatminer 10 Foot Ballerina called (no joke) Optimus Pikachu. Here’s an AMAZING 13-minute medley of Triple 6 tracks they made. Creepy, crazy, offkilter mixing of some of the greatest Hollerween music ever made. Enjoy.

HALLOWEEN MIX: ANY MAJOR BAG OF DEAD LEAVES WILL... →
Dave Tompkins:
This is a combination of L.A. stuff, and Halloween, and things that have little to do with either.
For those who want instant Miami Bass Halloween skip to 33:37.
Thanks to Frosty at Dublab and Jeremy Campbell (at 10 Jay) for all the engineering, edits, and do-whats.
Wave hi to the dust witch, in her balloon outside your window.

The /b/ Boys: Odd Future and the Swag Generation →
In spite of the cuteness of the title, this is a great article from Sean Fennessey about the rise of Odd Future and their internet-underground ilk. Fennessey articulates something I’ve been thinking deeply about recently; the fact that the underground is mutating into something completely different than we saw 10 or even 5 years ago. Very much in the same vein as our Cloud Rap compilation,...

Hip Hop Forever →
“I am, it seems, always bidding adieu to the formative music of my youth. I am not bitter, but in the long kiss goodnight I hope to soon understand why and how I came, so powerfully, under the sway of two turntables and a microphone. Now, I am pushing past 35, and I offer these thoughts as a man who almost surely will never buy any of Big Sean’s work. And this is as it should...

2 Busy Saying Yeah - Ninety-Now: East Coast Indie... →
Matthew Africa:
For most of the 1990s, I followed east coast rap about as closely as any not-yet-internet-savvy person living in Cali could. I listened to every record I could find, read everything that I could and prized any dub of radio shows by Stretch & Bobbito, Mayhem, Riz, Eclipse, etc. that came my way. During that era, I made it to New York about once a year and would spend every...
