hip-hop lost one of its most talented wordsmiths when fred the godson passed away due to complications with covid-19 last year. however, his family has continued his legacy by launching the nonprofit fred the godson foundation, as well as releasing some of his most sought-after music on vinyl and cd. ascension is the first posthumous release with all new material from the south bronx emcee. the tracks were handpicked by fred s brother russ and they are a prime example of the creative high he was on just before his passing. the collection of songs includes production from the heatmakerz and guest spots from g mims, guap sinatra, m city, reef hustle, bandz dinero and more. this album is a celebration of fred s life and so, fittingly, the lp dropped digitally on his birthday, february 22. on the same day, new york city officials unveiled a new street name in the south bronx honoring the respected lyricist: fredrick -fred the godson- thomas way. a lot of artists make street music, but only a handful have ever received a tribute with street signs.
while eto’s concept album eto brigante is definitely one of the highlights of his discography, one wonders what the project would have sounded like if the whole album was produced by a single beatmaker. well, as good as the original is, listeners now have the chance to hear the lyrics buoyed by the singular vision of german producer trickytrippz. more than a remix album, this body of work aims to intensify eto’s rap retelling of the classic gangster film carlitos way.

billy woost may not have released much music back in his heyday around 1977, but the one album he did put together was enough to secure a place in the crosshairs of the consummate italian groove archivists, best italy. picking up the finest jams from woost s back catalogue, we re presented with a three tracker dripping with classic disco charm. -body, body love- comes in a previously unreleased disco form that cruises at an easy pace but packs plenty of punch, while -please touch me- edges the intensity up with a steamy set of strings, brass and vocals. -sleep- meanwhile taps into a blockheads kind of funk, bright and bouncy and just a little left of centre, which of course makes it all the more special.
multicast dynamics returns to astral industries for ai-26, this time collaborating with sid hille, the german born, finland based instrumentalist and composer. ‘metamorphosis’ transmutes both artists’ unique styles into a synergistic blend of transportive storytelling, a delicate dance of light and dark.divided into two parts, ’metamorphosis’ originates from a live performance recorded at temppeliaukio church in helsinki on march 2nd, 2019. the material was then edited, where hille’s soothing keyboard work and haunting passages on the theremin, combine with processed textures and desolate sonic backdrops from dijk. in this voyage beyond space and time, the subtle dialogue reveals new and perhaps unexpected dimensions in their creative arsenal, finding fresh new boundaries and enriching the palette of both performers. encounters of sweet fleeting moments of lyricism emerge amidst the chilling outback, in which we re given some final consolation between the long lines of cavernous rifts and deep space tundra.
