Peppermill Records - "2999"

Yo this shit is SOOO cool! Seriously. Just found out about this project. Apparently Peppermill records, one of many newish electronic labels I have never heard of, recently started this project. What is it?

Well, they had a contest or something, collected a bunch of funky/futuristic bangers, and are going to release them, one a week, FREE, FOR A YEAR! Not only that, they have a bunch of reallly legit names scheduled - Robot Koch, Kraddy, ill.gates, Slugabed. Some of the dopest producers in bass music right now in my opinion. Definitely super excited, first couple tracks are dope so far. And to top it off, they have custom graphic design for each track with a futuristic art piece inspired by the tune.

Don't sleep on this, definitely check it out

BoomBaptist - Beat Tape 2010

Nice big package of beats (27 total) from one mr. BoomBaptist. Not the best name, but not that bad either and fits with the music he's doing. Really Dilla-oriented, stutter-step raw hip hop grooves fused with soulful samples, bouncy bass lines, and nice bubbling synth lines. Just the way I like my beats - futuristic but retro. Nothing too crazy but nice sounds, definitely worth a listen and the download is free too.
