Stones Throw 10/10

to celebrate their 10yr anniversary, stones throw released a 2-part album titled Chrome Children which features tracks by its various talented members. the first part, which i anxiously waited for, was released october last year and needless to say it rocks. it wasn't as hot as i expected but it's a good way of sampling what the label is all about. if you can, and don't own it already, i recommend you buy it.

the second one has just been released today - free on the internet and i'm currently downloading it now as i write. you'd think it'd be stupid for a recording label to release albums for free but it only shows it's not about the money but about the fans, and the passion for the music. it's labels like these the music industry needs. labels that once a while show a token of appreciation to their fans. labels that deliver true music. thank you stones throw! grab it now here - just like the Liberation album, i can't guarantee it will be free for long.
on a side note, after various experiments concocting hip hop mixes, the supahvillain is planning a wussy mix for vals day. hopefully, it will be released a few days before vals day. first he needs to do the hard part - decide what tracks will make the list.
