No One Will Play With Me ▀▀ Mixtape

No One Will Play With Me is the latest in a continuing series of mixtapes for Man Bites Blog exploring the synergy between various incarnations of modern music. The result is an experimental soundclash that melts synth heavy hiphop with bone-crushing metal, fuses dubstep with disco, and meshes the mainstream with the avant-garde. Listen as vintage electronic pioneers share the bill with tomorrows beat alchemists. Mischievously they screw and chop Lady Gaga, pitch-shift Ludacris, and reloop Chris DeBurgh to fashion a gothic disco soundtrack. And still no one will play with me.

Blaqstarr - We Make It Good Mixtape

I completely slept on the last few We Make It Good mixtapes. Check them out over at the Fader/WMIG site. On a sidenote, is it just me or is the name We Make It Good a little ot close to Mad Decent? Just doesnt fly with me, but who gives a shhh when the music is consistently this tight. These are solid mixtapes form musicians that need to be heard. Fader as a magazine runs in direct competition with XLR8R in the States. And they rule the high seas when it comes to their podcast/mixtape output. But WMIG rival them in quality if not in quantity. Its a real shame WMIG arent hosting them through iTunes. Yo Fader crew get up on that!

The latest mix is by Volume 07 is by Crookers... Not my cup of chai. But Volume 06 is by Baltimores finest rapper imo Blaqstarr. It's dope, but not what you'd expect from him. Which makes it even more sick. Download it here.


Blaqstarr - We Make It good Vol.mp3

While on a Blaqstarr tip. As a local to Baltimore, he'd contributed tracks to The Wire in the past. It was only a matter of time untill he did his own take on the Tom Waits theme tune. Well worth a wacth. Ive yet to see the 5th season, is this like the actual theme tune?
