good morning secret club members
here's one of the many demo versions of a new rap festival called falling loud

2023-09-29 14:12:08 +0000 UTC View Postby popular demand (3 people) here's the vod for this monday's morning show featuring the project blowed OG section of our otherground breakdown
I tell some stories about and play some videos by:
Aceyalone
Abstract Rude
Ellay Khule
P.E.A.C.E.
enjoy!
and let me know if there's any episodes you especially want to see here
a new project means new demos for secret club sharing
I got this beat from Quelle Chris when I was writing songs for Component System. I wrote maybe four songs on this beat before I landed on what became the final.
so when you press play be prepared to hear something completely different.
so it goes :)
I remember what we did this episode because it was this week!
I was happy to be home so we had coffee in other people's homes. We then reviewed the pitchfork review of my new release 'another triumph of ghetto engineering'
