Great list, not many suprises.

One thing that pains me is pointing out mozzy's joint dropped in the tail end of 2019 which reminds me it's now 5 years ago Mozzy dropped his last song I truly care about.

Also pointing out Unique's Groove is great but Microdosing is clearly the correct Unique pick.

Dope. Lots for me to check out, cheers!

I love was the first song i listened to when i learned that KA had died yesterday :´(

Me too. Then the Dr Yen Lo album.

Unrelated, I recently heard a Rap song which samples the It Follows theme: Faces Of Death by Papo2004.

UNiiQU3's Groove cracks harder.

Spartan said...

Works really well. Surprised Disasterpeace's music hasn't been mined for sampling more often, tbh.

Ben said...

That Papo2004 is dope seen him live awhile actually pretty good live.

Kelvin Mack10zie said...
