Actual Pain Presents: The Sonic Youth Mix Tape

There was some article at the Fader about how incredible and clever the dude behind Actual Pain is and or was. So, I poked around that site for a moment and found that the $40 t-shirts were not only $40 fuqin’ dollars, but sported tiger’s heads and various other images that dudes working convenient stores might need to don.

There were some mix tapes, including this here Sonic Youth deal. The inclusion of the collab below makes me think that the time invested was well worth it.

Nacrobats affiliated emcee Pugslee has been kinda busy of late. He released a mix tape a few weeks back that makes other rapper’s studio work sound ridiculous…and now this. That vid might just be an add, but there’s sure to be more to follow…

Analog Africa x Selection, Vols. 01 & 02

Analog Africa still hasn’t had a huge release exposing it to a broad reception in the press – yet. These mixes were probably meant to help…So, if you’re Monday lacks funk, get ‘em.

Black Classical x Blue Note 70

This compilation from Black Classical was apparently downloaded enough that it fried ole dude’s Podomatic account for the time being. So in celebration of Blue Note turning 70 this year, cop it and bump it…Tracklisting can be found HERE.

Print – Comic Books: Unlimited

Hopefully, some folks remember “Superfriends” from a few months ago. That track, however, seems at best distant from the rest of Comic Books: Unlimited. There aren’t too many dudes workin’ with this kinda production. Even if there were, though, Print’s flow is unique enough to get him over.

IHL x Thor’s Rubber Hammer

There’re enough groups that work in a free improv mode, but few are as consistently entertaining as I Heart Lung. And if you head to the Thor’s Rubber Hammer Bandcamp site, the Infinite Fjords sampler includes work from the LBC’s IHL as well as a few other acts that cover anything from ambient noise to thrashy instro jazz.
