Shade Cobain – Cobainish Theory

Shade Cobain is a producer that we’ve been following for some time now and we’ve been fortunate enough to see some real growth in his work (link). Cassette Theory was my favorite but this one has quickly taken it’s place as Shade creates some really nice beats from a gang of sources.

You will leave most enlightened!

The Mint Collective Presents: A Tribute to Vinia Mojica

If Mary J Blige is the Queen of Hip Hop Soul, then Vinia Mojica is the First Lady of Soulful Hip Hop. Does the distinction seem miniscule, check out this mix and you’ll witness the difference. At eleven tracks deep, DJ Seano picks some obscure Mojica assisted tracks but I would have loved to hear some more of the familiar tunes as well.
