Three Times Dope
bit of a megapost right about now. in no particular order here's some real news:
1.) Regular 440r blog contributors Mark E. Moon and No.1 have remixes featured on our favorite spazzy little west coast party rapper, HAWNAY TROOF's website. You can visit his exclusive remix page here or download Snarky Moon's jawn here or macno.1's here. Originally, it was supposed to be a contest but Chris (hawnay's real name, pictured above) got too many awesome entries so he's just saying "you're all winners", but really we know that a little place called Somerville has held it's own in a battle against the rest of the world of riddim arteests.
2.) Speaking of wee dudes, our favorite local show-organizer, label owner, and the only man who has mutton chops bigger and been rockin them longer than TD, Mr. Daniel Jean Shea has a birthday on Saturday, so let's give him some props for that. And also, let's give him some props for finally emailing me an mp3 version of the battle rap song i helped produce for him. Check it here: MC Eggplont/Death Sentence Panda Squad - "Deep Fried Hate". For those who might not be familiar with the whole Allston Battle Rap Scene, here's a quick recap of what went down last year.
3.) And lastly but not leastly, in case you haven't heard, or read, Big Digits have put together a BIG SHOW tonight at Great Scott, featuring the reunited-and-it-feels-so-good Crystal Understanding, and the about-to-tour-with-The-Gossip-and-show-the-world-how-we-do-electropera UV Protection, to celebrate the release their new cd SMOKE MACHINES IN LAZERVISION, which is coming out on the aforementioned Dan Shea's record label, BODIES OF WATER ARTS AND CRAFTS. As a special treat for 440r blog readers, here's a (for now) exclusive track off the new album:
