like vampire's blood

Kashmere's been one of my favourites for a while now. New shit, nicked from UK All Day.

Kashmere feat. Truth - Do You Understand

You can get this on the Three Years High and Rising compilation, available from Rapsploitation Sessions.

songs i've been listening to recently, pt. 2

"Fuck I need a bodycast/I'm on my Camp Crystal Lake shit"

Now, anybody can sound nice on this beat but I didn't think someone could sound this nice!

On my eighth listen right now - OH MY DAAAAYS. Follow Grim on Twitter.

"bye now! bye now"

So, a couple of mixes I've had kicking about from the net recently...

Tokimonsta, who's signed to Flying Lotus' Brainfeeder label, is getting praised for her spacey, sometimes glitchy sounding beats - a perfect fit for her label boss IMO. This is an exclusive mix she did for Donky Pitch ahead of her live set in Brighton on the 26th. If you get a chance, check her out you lucky dogs. And can anybody let me know what the beat that kicks in at 7:48 is? I've heard it before and it's bugging me trying to remember what it is exactly...

Something I've been meaning to post about for a minute - this mix from Robot Koch, who I first read about over at Passion of the Weiss, has a reeeeall nice sway to it. Check it out - I played dude's "Death Star Droid" on FLFD the other week there and that has a definite cool vibe behind it. So best get to it, kid. Dude's also done a mix for Brainfeeder - that's cyclical writing, people! Connections!

And THIS has been kicking about on my flash drive for ages - Jimmy Green, he of "what if Dilla produced The Blueprint" fame, giving the greatest voice of all, Marvin Gaye, the once over. This is dope. Don't sleep on it like I did.

This track still, still, still will kill.

Okay people, a couple of quick Myspace links to end the day:

This is LDZ aka Londonzoo and they have bangers. Click on the photo above to check out their Myspace page and check out the following songs: "Hold It Down", "Lips To Da Floor" and "Man Urself".
If it wasn't for the perenially grumpy Marx'sBeard at Cows Are Not Food, I wouldn't know about Glasgow outfit Water Wolves, whose two recorded songs show promise as well as a way with a sweet tune. Definitely worth listening to for a couple, click on the photo above.

Right then. Right.

My bad, I've been meaning to post this for a bit - Scottish rappers MasterSystem and their self-titled demo EP. There's a link to it through their Myspace blog but because I'm a kind fellow... HERE you go, click away! It's pretty dope.

If you missed that: DOWNLOAD HERE.
