deluxe double album release of camp lo’s latest “the get down brothers” and “on the way uptown: saturday night demo”.

stuck in the depths of a dark alley, blocked by yet another breeze, hitting a stone wall, road sign ahead: dead end. impasse. “cul-de-sac”. hip-hop. the original, some would say, official music of the late 20th century bronx. some say it has endured it’s fair share of distractions, detractors and defectors. some say it has murdered itself, having been abandoned by its so-called best men, those who have gone off in other directions, or who have, simply, just beat-retired. yet, there are plenty of soldier monks still out there, prepared to sweat it out in the temple of machinery and mics. low cut honored this cause four years ago, with his mpc crafted minimalist version of ny minute and he’s back to ring the bells and unsheathe the samples!
the double vinyl release includes a download code.

michigan native dj soko is part of a long line of great technical djs, musical innovators, curators and those who broke key artists and introduced acts that forever changed the landscape of the music scene. sokos ear and ability to put emcees in position for them to shine over the perfect production is never more evident than it is on his debut project released on his imprint left of center. dj soko uses his years coming up in the detroit scene, his experiences djing in his current home (the planet of brooklyn, ny) then blends both of those worlds together seamlessly. the end result is a gritty, boom bap rap album that is equally as soulful and introspective as it is rooted in a blue collar lyrical hip-hop aesthetic. *domino effect* is ultimately brought together by sokos deft cuts and scratches which elevate each composition and make them resonate with listeners even further.
pressing on transparent red vinyl.

after a new trip to new york and several collaborations on their respective projects both fellows decided to work on a common project: in the cut. still inspired by mid-90s new york hip-hop, this albu is produced entirely by dj low cut. nutso is not alone behind the microphone since you will found many guest appearances like smiley the ghetto child, rasheed chappell, dirt platoon, timeless truth, nems, ft, ag da coroner and c-rayz walz. like the song *shut em down* (a tribute to public enemy) or *grand scheme*, the 10 tracks of *in the cut*, definitely boom bap, will bring you in a world where underground hip-hop sharp lyrics, mingles with the melancholy samples soul 70s.
