SIN

My crew, GAHEDiNDIE, particularly K., has come out with a new sneak peek at "SANA SANA", K.'s Upcoming LP, expected to drop (with art from yours truly) Spring of 2010 .

Download this artful noise piece HERE for wav and HERE for mp3. Below the lyrics are included, and above is an art piece I made at the same time for the release. Enjoy!

I know were too tired to attack
Faking mac and slacks were all that
The world is react shackled and ominous.
We not conform to this
Not a matter of time in this
Shaman minded we finding a common scratch
In the batch of fists.
Cold weather is better.
To come clever and clean, the dark black,
The sweater, the k., Mean to the scene. Seems
Like I'm in a fuck but I'm rechargeable batteries operating on luck its not tangebile.
Don't grab cause everything your touching is blackening white its death at a hundred and 40 words what it means to you.
I am the fangs to this age
With no piece I pierce there is no changing
This place the noise is all that I cheer.
So I can eat and move along to the carbon
Maybe by autumn I aint shot I'm off em but I aint carvin em up
I got no conscious to fill
That's why it feels like
I could be the noise that would kill. I'm like
Slash throat.

Might as well grab a pillow,
Let the down know you'll be there for a minute,
Tickle at your marrow, forget about the whole day tomorrow, empty all your friends you can borrow, make it your bones.
I bet a 20 wouldn't phase you
Would you like a carriage cause the worlds about you
HA
You never see the black
You don't percieve the ash
You lead a half cached ad in a single flash
I'm feeling funny in my voyeurism
Watch at all times choking lines you design
For your fucking nitch..
And when the plates go crashing
Belly up your braagggggin thinkin its a rough dream pattern!

Holy Mixtape Madness, Batman!

It's going to be a good summer. My favorite season. Poolside conversations, drinks with umbrellas, birthdays (holler, Cancers!), sunburns, and lots of air conditioning if you live in Phoenix, like me.

I define my summers by the jams I listen to, and this summer is not going to be a disappointment! There's a new trend going around to which I am never going to object:

FREE MUSIC!

The summer is off to a great start. Soundset. New artists. And mixtapes galore. Here are some gems that have recently come out that will surely give you something to bump to.

Added: Soundset Mixtape

Added: Rob Viktum's Snack Pack 2.5

I'm really stoked on the idea of free mixtapes and downloadable songs. Artists are beginning to branch out and away from depending on major record labels and music stores to distribute their material. The whole DIY vibe is much more accessable, realistic (it's hard to muster up the courage to spend $15 on an album unless I'm SURE I love it), and enables the fans to gobble up more releases from their favorite artists. Sure, losing the hard-copies of albums hurts artists like me a little bit, who depend on people buying the physical copies to display their cover art, but in the case of GahedinDIE, we always include the artwork to make the realeases more interactive.

Times in the music business are changing, but as far as I see it, differen't isn't necessarily worse!

Long Live Free Music.

(I'll edit this and include more mixtapes as I come across them in the next couple weeks, so keep an eye out)

P.S.- not sure what happened to the Kid Cudi mixtape. Can't find it anywhere on the net anymore! Anyone find a site hosting it? Or are we looking at a revoked leak?
