we'll keep our veins tangled, like a pair of mic cables

So, there's a little known label/collective based out of the bay area known as Anticon. For a while now they've been producing pretty mind blowing artists in the realm of experimental hip-hop & lo-fi electronic. The most notable can be easily narrowed down to that of WHY?. The project comes from the mind of Yoni Wolf who, originally from the midwest, started as one of founding members of the Ohio-based ambient masters cLOUDDEAD. When their reign ended, he relocated to Oakland & produced that achingly brilliant album Oaklandazulasylum & became known as an innovator of low fidelity rhymes. His lyrics, sometimes incomprehensible, are obscure & at times inspiring.

My goal now is to find Yoni via the bay area, where I'll be postin' up next month, & reminisce about the midwest. This will lead us to write a sonic opus of a record! Anyone out there interested in playing slide-whistle or glockenspiel you know where to find me.

Some Anticon head-trips:

cLOUDDEAD - "rifle eyes"


WHY? - "early whitney" (remix)


cLOUDDEAD - "pheonix"


WHY? - "rubber traits"
