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 / 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.

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.

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.
