Hi,
In the course of going through the tracks for my mix of the best of 2008
I have seperated out several types/genres of music.
The one that is almost completely missing is real Hiphop. I'm definitely
including the Audiobraille session with RadioActive but there are no
productions that I can find.
Is there no one who has released a Hiphop track this year?
Btw, it appears that Ken Restivo has released 42 tracks this past year.
Well done!!!! That's more than enough for an album. It's been hard to
choose which one/s to include in the mix and I might be unable to listen
to syncopated beats again for the next 6 months after yesterdays
listening marathon :-)
Oops, I'd forgotten about all the hip-hop stuff that AudioBraille had done with MC
Fossil Fool, the Bike Rapper:

Lots here too:

Linux being used to back up the Fossil Fool at the Maker Faire (last section of the video,
you can catch a glimpse of the penguin laptop):

So there were two rappers we worked with this year, Radioactive and Fossil Fool.
