Aesop Rock - Spirit World Field Guide (Instrumentals) (2022)

Following the success of Aesop Rock's most recent solo album, Spirit World Field Guide, he returns to deliver the instrumental version of those interdimensional adventures. Aesop has long been celebrated for his talents as a lyricist, but he has continually grown and evolved as a producer as well. While the original Spirit World Field Guide was packed with insightful chapters of firsthand know-how into the terrain, wildlife, and social customs of our parallel universe, the Spirit World Field Guide Instrumentals not only set the tone but also provide the roadmap for you to take your own journey. Welcome to the Spirit World. Explore with intention.

"He’s never before been such a commanding presence behind the boards. The beats here are the best of his career, full of torque and life."

HiddenRoad - Hidden Underground 4: New Power Rising (2022)

After vol. 3 in 2020, we decided that would be the end of the Hidden Underground series. And so it came to be that it was.. for a year. 2021 saw plenty of dope music from HRS, but no follow up to vol. 3... as it was meant to be the end of the story..

but it wasn't..

and now Hidden Underground is back, and this time, there's a New Power Rising

Lice (Aesop Rock & Homeboy Sandman) - Catfish (Single) (2022)

Producer Cess Less creates a tranquil, almost meditative vibe with just a touch of mysticism – an ideal soundscape for Aesop Rock and Homeboy Sandman to deliver over three minutes of humorously witty societal observations and personal anecdotes.

Homeboy Sandman:

You’ll understand my sense of urgency

I be the cat that put “emergence” in emergency

More than a half a mind to save my whole community

I’m just not certain what something like that’ll do to me

Sandy’s on the mound and pitching for the home team

All the information’s listed on the home screen

Once I started ain’t no switchin’ out to plan b

Once I started ain’t no screaming out “it can’t be”

You can catch the bluest ribbon in the red sea

You can catch the true and living in the dead sea

Magic lingers while the fingers on your screen scroll

Please believe it you can read it in the sea scrolls

Fortune frowns on anybody out to take lives

If you’re considering a silly thing then take five

I am avid as I’m having me a great time

I’m aware you might have heard this through the grapevine

When I’m chompin on the bit it ain’t a bit dull

If you want it you can get it thru your thick skull

See I grew up on Atari playing pitfall

See I grew up on Safari of the brick walls

I’m a composite of many different aspects

I’m a undercover operative of aztecs

Bastion riding falcor tryna spot artex

Examining the outdoors for the spot marked X

Behind the wheel of True’s land cruiser I cruise land

Listen and you’ll hear it it’s the spirit that moves man

Picking out a jacket for hijacking a news van

Rappers don’t know diddley but me I’m a blues man

I be on it like I saw it with a bird’s eye

If it’s doable I done it on my first try

Breaker breaker peep the phantom about to break fly

Every bit of data fatter than a steak fry

Doin what I gotta to remain on the blacklist

Up until you find out that was only a catfish

Every other human come including an asterisk

Thank you all for snoozing now for using my last wish

Aesop Rock:

Pitched a few snow balls

Skipped a slew of rolls calls

Dipped into the sewer, grew his hair out like a troll doll

Blew the man-hole cover up to the sand bluff

Down to the river took a knee with my hands cupped

Man-Ape free to hydrate or be ambushed

The slant grow from “look at him go” to “heavens I can’t look”

King Upsetter, surely cursed be the name

Every word an urgent love letters bursting into flames

Editor-in-chief at the Bloodletter gazette

Every drip on the cement could fill-up another cassette, and does

Reaper knocking at me through the diner glass

Invite him in

Yes I know the die is cast, now try the grits

Let him get the check, and offer thirty seconds clear to run

It’s ten before he skip the other twenty on some “here I come”

Which way’d he go

Strafe and follow any trace of spirit gum

Mustache and glasses disappear into the zero sum

No road atlas only roads to Damascus

Where the roses are for growing not for throwing at some pageant

Y’all just pinning little ribbons on each other as catfish

Swimming in the chasm between what you publish and practice

I wake up every day and move different than I used to

Smarter than whichever bear’s assuming that you do too

Doozie after doozie, up and brushing off the lab coat

Cold bath, bo staff, back on his Max Roach

Tap into the tape gun, mail you back to Hasbro

Bring me to the big cheese, all I see is crab toast

All you see is parachutes raining from the matmos

All I see is parody and parroting and plateaus

‘Round here that’s pretty much a cousin to the flatline

I would rather level-up than fraternize with magpies

Patron saint of Isolation, heart of palm and graphite

Teaching kids to put away the crack pipe, that’s lice

The Silversmiths - The Beat Shall Inherit the Verse (2022)

Approximately four years ago, JON?DOE and Sankofa AKA The Silversmiths, a duo dedicated to making it happen, recorded an album. Beloved producer Agent Orange trod a mythical path only he knows and reemerged from the shroud of leap yeared invisibility with this banger of an album. There are backstories and then there is how this album came to be.

JON?DOE rapped really well

Sankofa rapped pretty good I guess

Agent Orange remade every beat from scratch

Memphis Reigns & Sankofa - Harikuma's Revenge (2022)

Nicest guy in rap, Memphis Reigns teams up with okayest guy in rap from Fort Wayne, Sankofa to wreck mics in the name of WE HAVE THE POWERNESS! This originally dropped on Memph's page, but he's so nice he gave me the go ahead to upload it to my bandcamp page as well!

Tim Baron made the artwork based on a drawing my son made of a final boss he made up called Harikuma. My son makes the most boss bosses, so beware!

Beats from Chef Mike, phdbeats, OJ the Producer, Profound, Engineering by TaliRod (not to be confused with TailRod), scratches by the inimitable DJ Navin Johnson.

Sankofa - BLKTCHP2 (2022)

As soon as BLKTCHP dropped, phdbeats was all for making a follow up. I promised him it'd happen once I tended to some other pieces I had in development and here we are-notably devoid of any feel good vibes and diving deeply into that menace medicine.
