VIDEO: “Keyed Decisions” – Cam The Mac (dir. by Harry Clean of Detooz Films)
Moor Gang affiliate Cam The Mac is based and keyed in this new video by Harry Clean of Detooz Films. Play name-that-VHS while adjusting the fucking tracking on your set. Raise your hand if you miss the janky days of video tapes. Me too.
NEW MUSIC: “Safeco” – Rebel (prod. by Drew Beats)
Click image to get it.
About a year ago Rebel released his five-piece, Swisher Nights, which featured the hardcore tracks of one Vitamin D. It’s been a minute since Reb’s been on the scene but dude recently posted “Safeco,” a hazy one-off produced by Drew Beats. Good to hear this guy again.
VIDEO: “Sam Lachow Presents: Young Seattle 2” – Various Artists
Seattle has bars. You should really know that already. Sam Lachow does and he sought out a few of the Town’s best for his second edition of “Young Seattle.” Not gonna tell you who hops on, you must watch.
(Go here for the first one.)
VIDEO: “Hop On The Ride” – Scribes (dir. by Harry Clean of Detooz Films)
All play no work for the homie Scribes in his new clip, “Hop On The Ride,” directed by Harry Clean of Detooz Films.
NEW MUSIC: Eye 8 The Crow – Art Vandelay
Click album cover to download.
More laughter in the face of societal degradation by Art Vandelay. Eye 8 The Crow is the duo’s third album in as many years. We’re still breathing and listening, much to Ricky Pharoe and Mack Formway’s chagrin.
NEW MUSIC: “Dope” – Sol (prod. by The Zillas)
Sol is scheduled to return to the United States from his whirlwind international sabbatical in “just a few short weeks,” according to the press release for his new single, “Dope”. I’m sure more stories of his travels and a welcome home show are in the works.
