New Underground Sounds :: Exploded Drawing SXSW 2013 Sampler

Just before all of the madness that was SXSW took place, the homies at Expolded Drawing dropped an amazing sampler showcasing some of the talent that performed at this year’s showcase and in the past.  I was lucky enough to get placement on this compilation, and the rest of the lineup is insane.  Take a listen, take a copy, and tell a friend.

Dope artwork as well from Glory Gold & Glitter.

I Can Do It In The Mix :: A New ‘Mixtape’ From Chief and TheDoomsdayDevice

Get it.  Listen to it.  Share it.  This is my ode to the music that inspires me, and part one of what will become an ongoing series.  My take on the mixtape may be a bit skewed by traditional standards, but it’s the most honest portrayal of how I feel about the music that influences me… that I love and hate… and that I want others to know I am aware of.  I also want those people to become aware of how there are common threads among music that some may not have envisioned upon first listen.
