Laze

Conspicuous Absence (mix)

[ download ]

(Cliche alert:) Rakim was right... it really has been a long time.

In his first publicly available mix in many years, Laze drops some of the dopest tracks hip-hop has had to offer in the last several years. Included are familiar cats like Pete Rock, Hiero, and Tonedeff alongside significantly lesser known artists like Hi Council, Akir, Plan: Be, and Son Of Nun. Poland is even represented lovely on "Powietrze" by OSTR.

The tracks were plucked from the Tree of Illness and then blended with care for a pure taste sensation. So, please, partake.

Please support the artists on this mix by visiting their sites and buying their music.

(A few copies of the physical version of this disc are still available. If you're interested, drop me a note.)
