RB Music - Uncovered & Rediscovered Hits » Mixtape http://www.rb-music.co.uk Just another WordPress weblog Thu, 09 Sep 2010 22:34:06 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 en hourly 1 The Week for Mixtapes http://www.rb-music.co.uk/2010/03/17/the-week-for-mixtapes/ http://www.rb-music.co.uk/2010/03/17/the-week-for-mixtapes/#comments Wed, 17 Mar 2010 20:22:26 +0000 Richard http://www.rb-music.co.uk/?p=1250 This week has been the week for mixtapes so far I’ve copped two of top quality and with Kano’s dropping tomorrow this should take the sum to three and the best thing is they have all dropped for FREE

TY – Something Big Vol 1

Ty - Something Special

Mixed by DJ Bounce, TY drops a mixtape showcasing old and new material sound very special indeed you can get this on Bounce’s blog http://www.tru-spinna.blogspot.com/.

p.s. Ty’s album Special Kind of Fool drops April 19th. Emotions is out now on Itunes go buy that!

Baby Blue – Firefly

I would quite happily argue the fact that Baby Blue is one of the best to do it in the U.K scene, ever since Out of Blue Vol 2 I’ve expected big things from her she has the talent. You can download “Firefly” the free mixtape here

Kano – Jack Bauer

Kano - Jack Bauer

I have no doubt that this Mixtape will be fire created in just 7 days. This drops tomorrow expect a download as soon as its available! Kano’s new album is also due soon titled “Method To The Maadness” watch out for that!

You can download the mixtape over at Kano’s Bandcamp page

Tinchy Stryder -Before the storm

Tinchy Stryder - Before the storm

Today another mixtape dropped this time from Tinchy Stryder featuring various members of the Ruff Squad. You can download this exclusively from mistajam’s blog. Just listening to some cuts on 1xtra now as I type and its sounding big.

Head over to Jam’s blog to cop this one – you will need a password but this hasn’t been released yet!

He is also on the LG adverts that are around at the moment!

Anyway courtesy of twitter earlier I was informed that Darren B has dropped a mixtape today and I am four tracks in and it’s sounding hot…

You can download it here – Enjoy!

I downloaded his mix tape “The Warmup” via Mistajam’s blog. I am in love with it track 22 “Losing My Balance” is the best for me but there alot of recycled Kanye beats which makes me extremely happy (old Kanye that I like)…

Here is an acoustic performance of Losing my Balance its HOT!

Mix tapes nine times out of ten are usually alot better than an artists album. I’ve not been able to put my finger on as to why but yer they are a much better listen.

Two that I have discovered lately are Bashy’s – bashy.com and Chipmunk’s - League of My Own. One randomly(Chipmunk random purchase) and the other I wanted for ages and just never got round to getting it(bashy.com)!

You never know what your going to get usually some original beats, some over known beats here’s a track from each!

I f*cking love Ugly Slums like silly amounts… loved the old Better off Alone track when it came out in 1999 amazing..and for bish bash bosh to spit over it made me a happy man! No rules to a mixtape which results in tracks like that!

Bashy – Ugly Slums
