Another Tall Black Guy 7″ just came out via CrossTalk. It took a while, but finally “Mini Therapy Chops” is now available for the fans. Eventhough the B-side “Love The World” is a doozy. It seems only fitting to stream the A-side called “Sweet Europe” right?! Go buy a copy and support good hip hop music in the process!

Last week we told you to get yourself a copy of Union‘s “Analogtronics” album right?! Well this week we’re back with some more intel.

Limited release 7″ on white vinyl for the hardcore collectors out there now available at Fat Beats.

Jazz pianist/producer, Kan Sano, just uploaded a can of whoop-ass to his Soundcloud page in the form of “Stole”. What more can I say? Some of that sexy, laid back future vintage right here…no doubt! If you guys are quick you can still grab a free download, but I think there’s only 50 more left so hurry.

Union, also know as the duo OJ & Gold from Paris, have been on our radar for quite some time. With their latest “Analogtronics” album (which is out as of today) they’ve made their way on to our ‘shit these cats is tight’ list. Just loving that warm spacey electronic hip hop that they do so well. Lots of interesting features on this one too from MF Doom, Talib Kweli, Elzhi, Guilty Simpson, Rapper Big Pooh, Moka Only and more. This is gonna be one of those albums you just have to get on or if you’re a vinyl head, I suggest you go for that super fresh looking (pink & teal) 2xLP available at Fatbeats! Oh and make sure you snatch a free download of “Digital Delight” featuring Guilty Simpson and of “Wings” featuring Elzhi as well..

It’s been a while since we posted some new Devonwho stuff, but since he’s releasing his “Strangebrew” EP on All City next month, we thought we’d keep you in the know. My homeboy B. Bravo keeps murdering shit every single time with his distinct Cali sound and again his remix is crack-a-lackin’. Devon’s 12″ is already available for pre-order at Rush Hour or wait a bit longer for it to hit your local record shop.

Fellow Dutchie, Sam A La Bamalot, from Uden is a producer who surprised a lot of people last year with his “A Bird’s Leg” release. Sam’s latest “What Happens When You Sleep” EP on Lomechanik is out as of today. Our favorite joint, “Rapid Eye Movement”, fuses the old with the new and is slighty reminiscent of a time when not everybody and they moms was making beats yet. You can pre-order this 12″ over at Triple Vision or buy it digitally (link will be added shortly).
