I thought i'd do another album review, this one for Shag because not only is this album awesome but it's pay what you want, so i would highly suggest picking it up. you can get it for free if you want, but it's always cool to support artists, so if you do buy it for money, big props.

Hermit by Shag

Genre: Hip-Hop/Instrumental Hip-Hop

The Deal: Shag's album Hermit, which is a reflection on himself during his times of solitude, is an incredibly well made album, with twelve great hip-hop songs, two of which are remixes of songs by Dead Prez, and Jay Dee & Elzhi. Shag's distinct style comes through with his rich, orchestrated beats, which are just pleasures to listen to. Many of the songs are perfect to listen to while driving, or just relaxing, and unlike Shag's other albums, Hermit is a little more focused - he sticks more to classic hip-hop structure and doesn't get too experimental. If you're looking for a more experimental album, i'd suggest Me Again

Free Form EP - Doks Robotiks

Genre: Live jazz-based hip-hop

The Deal: A 4 track EP from a semi-local hip-hop group from eau claire WI who mix jazz influences with hip-hop. ik they have knuckles from sonic on their album cover but really they're good

i just stumbled upon this guy Graham Kartna, his music is very interesting. i guess i'd classify it as experimental midi/chiptune lo-fi sample-based distorted electronica/vaporwave? it's very bizarre but there's something sublime in it's weirdness. definitely check out these songs and his other stuff. note: this ain't gonna be for everyone

I love this dude's completed songs. Use the buy link to go to his band camp to hear a few others.
