Aside from a few guest spots, NYC rapper (and former Babbletron member) Cool Calm Pete (above) has kept a low profile since his 2006 debut, Lost. He resurfaced with a new track yesterday. “One last one for the summer…free for the kids,” as he puts it. Download “Gitty Up Baby” at his MySpace page.
On the opposite coast, Time Machine’s DJ Mekalek is hosting a free mixtape on the L.A. outfit’s Glow Like This blog. Says Mek:
Be warned, this is NOT your run-of-the-mill mixtape; this monster took me over 2 years to make. I created all the beats using records I’ve collected over that time, various keyboards, plus my ASR-10. I then carefully assembled everything so that it flows non-stop, adding scratches and more melodies as spice. Some of you may know me for my BPM comfort-zone of the typical hip-hop type, but on this project i bust out of that slow shit and slam the tempo meters waaaaay up. If you’re in a somber mood and want to reflect on life, this is not for you, but if you’re getting ready to go out or just psyched to be alive, bang that Mek’s Party Mixx.
