Just a quick re-blog for a local podcast I’ve been digging lately (and you should too). Four Seattle journalists (among other things) who know a lot more about music than I do form like an over-caffeinated Voltron to bring you discussion, meditation and a healthy dose of witty banter over stuff they think you should listen to. This edition features local cloud-rap purveyor Keyboard Kid. Click above and here to download the ‘cast.

Ripynt dropped Hurt Locker Deluxe yesterday, a redux of his previously free The Hurt Locker EP (go here for that). New remixes, remastered joints and a new track are available on Deluxe for five clams (no Casino). I recommend at least sampling the wares below and checking out the rapper’s new video for “Shifty” here.
I just saw this on Potholes In My Blog and totally stole it. So goes the circle of blog life. Give PiMB another hit, here. And get in line for Dark Time Sunshine’s ANX (dropping July 24).
New video by Fleeta Partee for “Inception,” which I previously hipped you to here. Did you pick up the track yet? Tsk tsk. This one’s produced by Vitamin D off Fleeta’s LifeMuzik EP.
New clip from Steezie Nasa and the Detooz Films collective.
Two mini-doc featurettes starring The Physics a group that, in my estimation, is making the best hip-hop in Seattle at the moment. The clip above is from Sol’s recent going-away show at The Showbox. And the one below documents the crew as they pack up their old studio at the OK Hotel and move to an “undisclosed location” in SoDo.

Fight music from the North End’s Ripynt. “Shifty” can be found at this location and on the MC’c upcoming Hurt Locker Deluxe (June 26).
