about

The musicians and bands that make up the collective that is Elephant 6 are praised, possibly above all else, for their willingness to explore new sounds and work outside the normal indie rock soundscape. Albums from groups like Neutral Milk Hotel, The Olivia Tremor Control, and Of Montreal have influenced a generation of underground artists and mainstream pop creators alike.
Another artist that immediately comes to my mind when I think of people knocking down barriers and trying new things is Earl Sweatshirt. With influence from New York emcee MIKE and L.A.'s Navy Blue, he has been reinventing lo-fi hip-hop for the absolute very best with his last 3 records by incorporating warm audio environments made up of erratically chopped samples that nearly give the vocals a backseat to the drums and bass, creating a surreal yet emotional and beautiful listening experience as we hear Earl speaking deeply about many topics.
As a musician myself, this type of experimentation will always be cherished by me as it paves a way for all of us to try and do new things while being noticed/accepted for them. So I figured it makes sense to put Earl and the bands from Elephant 6 into an album together for the fifth installment in my 12 MONTHS, 12 TAPES series.
All beats sampling E6, with the highest quality Earl acappellas I could find laid over and mixed in.
