SLUMTOWN SYMFUNNY


Turquoise Cats sent over this 20+ minute piece of mix yesterday. Turquoise Cats is from Baltimore and is buds with Run DMT and LEXX and is down with Dem Hunger (and the Dem Hunger Remix of that Run DMT track).

The 'release' is out now on New Baltimore Records. By 'release' I mean it's all available as Mediafire download in addition to a physical copy which is composed of "a broken jewel case with shit from off of my floor as the back cover, a cd-r with nothing written on it, a single match in a matchbook, and one newport." Get at the Cats for your copy.

The mix comes on all dusty and dope, some real fur coat African cinema shit, all big jewel necklaces and twelve-inch cigarette holders - and the bellhop strikes yer match for you. First Maghrebi space program shit. The cuts used are "all vinyl except one african highllife song." Process-wise, shit was "all done live on one take. no ovadubs. no stems. no seeds. no sticks. only dust." Don't ask what went into the mix however, since



"me tracklist be hiddn up in ma fortress on some swiss family
robinson held captive by pirates shit."




Sometimes it's better to know not where you are, to know not what ingredients make up the secret spice blend.
