Lexx

Hailing from the same Baltimore crew that contains Run DMT, Happy Family & Dem Hunger amongst others, Lexx's sound is all over the shop, switching from Glitchy Soulful Wonk stuff to Silly Ghetto Wobble... experimental & fun, both their 'Slime Time' & 'Mangoblunt' ep's are worth gettin'

Tom Caruana

Beat producer/rapper from Brighton UK, he's released a few instrumental Hip Hop albums through Tea Sea Records & the awesome Welcome Aboard EP on Budabeats, but his newest lp 'Enter the Magical Mystery Chambers' a mashup of the Beatles & Wu Tang is epic, every track is a stunner... i've had this, Cream & Criminology on heavy repeat, but the whole lp is sick.

Rubbabandz

Not much info on this 95 US Rap artist, the music speaks for itself, Jazzy + Ghetto... ill shit

Hydroponic Sound System

Eclectic Downtempo/Hip Hop group, their sound is seriously laid back, like Bonobo or Lee Perry... you just instantly space out into smoke screened atmospheres.

Fingathing

Hip Hop/Nu Jazz act from Ninja Tune, in the same vein as Mr. Scruff their music is hard to label, it's often Hip Hop, but then it also isn't... this track in specific is a terrible inticator of what their music is like, but at the same time is my favorite tune by them & a brilliantly uplifting/floaty one at that.

TOKiMONSTA

!NSiDE affiliated artist from California, mostly Post-Dilla sounding again, Wonky heads will love this chick.

Mestizo & Mike Gao

California Hip Hop, their album Blind Faith is full of drum break/Jazz samplin' goodness, dope ass jamz for hot summer nights.

Big Love to Luna again for this <3

Jigmastas

Late 90's Hip Hop, one of the slickest acts out there, sick lyrical abilities thrown over butter smooth beats.

DJ Ruthless Ramsey

Turntablism without the turntables... this guys rippin' up on some old tape stereos! serious skillz.

The Mighty Bop

Alias of Bob Sinclar, a break away from the music he's more commercially known for, smooth French Hip Hop.



Big love to Luna again for this <3

Durrty Goodz

My personal fave of the UK Grime rappers, Wiley/Chipmunk/G Double E/Dizzie/Ghetto are all sick, but Durrty's got the GOODZ

Dysfunkshunal Familee

Underground 90's Hip Hop, most of this groups material went unreleased for years, to this day it's till not distributed on a major scale, which is crazy considering how amazing it is, sickkkk bass line. 

Beef Wellington ft. Swamburger

Not your average Conscious Hip Hop, Wellington has a unique style to his beats, influenced by all your standard stuff like Funk/Jazz, but all the way to House/Breakbeat... sick joints off Eighth Dimension Records.

Blaque Spurm

Short lived Hip Hop act, only released two 12''s... this one's off Ill Labels, standard affair, totally smooth/94 style.

Constant Deviants

Great NY [as far as i can tell] Hip Hop act with a few 12''s under their belt, everything i've found by em' I've liked... Smooth 90's style

Damu the Fudgemunk + Y Society

Damu is one of the best producers in the game, making beats in the oldskool way using an MPC & a vast amount of crate diggin'... Damu's also in a few projects, most notably his grouping with Insight Y Society, both are equally great.
