Alias – Want To Let It Go

One of the top 10 albums of 2011 (says me). Alias‘ Brendon Whitney is a founding member of the prolific independent hip-hop label Anticon, a collective notorious for fusing genres and pioneering new sounds from avant-garde hip-hop to post-indie-rock to electronic… blah blah it’s really good, you should listen.

Track / Stay Away

Stay Away (Nirvana Cover)

Easily the best cover from Spin Magazine’s recent Nirvana tribute album ‘Newermind‘, Charles Bradley & The Menahan Street Band‘s soul-heavy version of ‘Stay Away’ tops offerings from other big-hitters including Surfer Blood, Midnight Juggies and EMA.

Artist / Three 6 Mafia
Track / Stash Pot
Album / Smoked Out, Loced Out

Stash Pot

Classic 90′s hardcore stoner rap at it’s best. Smoked Out, Loced Out is the underground tape by Three Six Mafia (formerly Triple 6 Mafia). Not going to lie, I’d never heard this tape until Shlohmo put it on his Fact Mag Mix. That Fact Mag Mix mix is awesome btw. Download.

Artist / G-Side
Track / Impossible
Remix / Javelin Remix

Impossible (Javelin Remix)

Impossible is the latest single release from semi-hyped Hunstville duo G-Side, remixed by semi-hyped Brooklyn duo Javelin. G-Side have another awesome track sampling Tame Impala’s Why Won’t You Make Up Your Mind?. Digging both.

Track / High School Lover
B Side / Cayucas

High School Lover

If we’re talking ‘loved’ this week then really there’s nothing but Bieber lording it with the freestyle raps (kid’s a genius #justsaying). But, Oregon Bike Trail‘s ‘High School Lover’ is such a catchy, warm summer haze of a single that it’s definitely worthy of the accolade.
