C.Goody

This post is dedicated to a buddy of mine from Northfield, MN; Chris Goodwin.

Chris is a producer/artist with a prolific amount of good material. He's working on his newest beat-tape (Hallucination Revolver, due out early August). Until then, check out the leaks from it. (Also on his bandcamp is his latest beat-tape "Inner Ear Domination Vol. 2") I will be posting some of his collabs with local arists soon. If you're interested in using any of his beats or contacting him send him a message on Facebook..

Nerve and Dj Arkitekt - The American Lowlife LP

This isn't the usual type of hip-hop that I listen to but this is definitely a quality mixtape with apperances by some local names. Give it a listen and enjoy, I did :)



Below: Press release


Dear Listener,
How are you? Hope everything is well. Remember that time we went out drinking and hit on, what happened, to be the bouncer’s girlfriend? You still owe me for the hospital bills. But it was kind of you to ask about the album while I was in the ICU. It’s so nice that this record can finally see the light of day. There were times that we never thought that it would. After countless ups and downs, failed record deals, a stint in several rehabs, hollow promises and more than one case of heartbreak, our album has finally been heard. Touching on all of the subjects above, we wanted to make an album that had songs that were serious as a suicide note and songs that just made the listener smile. Here’s the tracklisting for our debut LP “The American Lowlife”:
1) Opening Credits
2) Find My Love on the Dancefloor
3) She’s Lovely
4) Saturday Night
5) Dead in the Eyes
6) Just Lean
7) Intermission
8 ) This Will Break Your Heart (feat. Adam Levy of the Honeydogs and Joe Christenson of White Light Riot)
9) Anybody Out There
10) Moving On
11) ROCKSTAR
12) Gotta Give It Up
13) Wake Up (feat. Def Mek)
14) By Now
15) Closing Credits
16) Bonus Track: Till They Play (feat. St. Paul Slim and Def Mek)
