Hey, what's up? Oh, really? That's supercool.

Now that the formalities are in order, here is my fourth mixtape.


I threw some rock in, that's right I did it. But there is still hip-hop involved. Another mixtape, another five songs.


So hereeeee we go:

First up is Brandston. I mostly dig this song because it mentions areas from where I live now. "Wonderful" San Diego. It's super-dancey stuff and also extremely poppy. But I likez it that way sometimes so here, without out further ado is Brandston's "Earthquakes and Sharks."

Hello, Jupiter One. I don't know much of anything about these guys, except for this song is good, and I can't find their album anywhere. In other words — an awesome situation. If you know where I can get this by walking from my house, please let me know.

Next, we have Neon Neon. I found out about these guys, because one of the members is producer Boom Bip. He's done beats for one of my favorite rappers, Busdriver. I figured since I like that stuff, I should check out this project. The album is super '80s influenced — some spots remind me of The Cars. There are also some super weird tracks, imagine The Cars with Spank Rock. Yeah, it's pretty sweet.

Almost done, there are these two dudes from Chicago that go by the name The Cool Kids. Guess what. They're cool ... SURPRISE!! So far, they've got one EP sorta out, "Totally Flossed Out." I hear they're full-length is due out soon. I hope so. This is a remix of one of the tracks from their EP. Flosstradamus reinterprets this for our listening pleasure. Enjoy it.

Lastly, this one goes baaaaack. Remeber Mo' Thugs? The Bone Thugs-N-Harmony headed collective? Yeah, I do. Here is a track featuring Layzie Bone and Skano. An interesting side-note, one of the members of Mo' Thugs is Souljah Boy, notice the "h," meaning not the "Crank That" Soulja Boy. Yeah, Soulja Boy pulled the ole' Vanilla Ice move on 'em. IT'S NOT THE SAME, THAT LITTLE "DING" MAKES A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE. AHHHHH, ALL CAPS!!! Enough.

There you go. Have fun, live well. I hope you had as much fun as I did.
