Download: Willie Brown - Ichiban Sound in 3D
Regular readers will have seen and heard the above already. Regular readers with superior music taste will be as excited as we were to see that the full length record from the Kendrick Lamar, Schoolboy Q & Black Hippy associated producer has been released.
Now, it’s lazy, and possibly sacrilegious, to make Dilla comparisons, but they’re hard to avoid in this case. The sheer finesse, detail and beautiful subtlety of this record really does allow and encourage those kind of associations.
Click the picture above to go to his Bandcamp page, where you can preview another track and download the album for the princely sum of $9.
We guarantee it’ll be the best $9 you spent since that time you got that hand-job off that suspect looking hooker, during that time of your life that you don’t like to talk about.

Astro-Bazaar by SertOne by MeltedMusic
A new name to Musikal’s eyes found it’s way to Musikal’s ears via Musikal’s inbox today. I’m glad it did.
SertOne is Liverpool based Northern Irish experimental hip hop producer. I’d file him (well the second track at least, Astro-Bazaar) under D for DaM-FuNk.
Have a listen and support independent music by buying the EP in full, here.
Video: Apollo Brown - Tao Te Ching
Visuals for Tao Te Ching, from the best instrumental hip hop album of the year, Clouds.
Future Joyner - Nightmares (produced by Apollo Brown)
From the ‘Listen To Me’ mixtape.
If you haven’t heard the next level producer Apollo Brown’s work before, get his (mainly) instrumental album ‘Clouds’ and The Left’s ‘Gas Mask’.
Apollo Brown - The 11th Hour
From the brilliant instrumental album ‘Clouds’, highly recommended.
