Title: MEMPHIS RAP
Post by: sick on September 03, 2015, 10:48:30 PM
Anyone listen to this shit? Murky,dark,lo-fi rap with obscure subject matter(for rap),and odd monotonous vox a lot of times
All kinds of great Dr rhythm sounds and shitty keyboards
favorites:

I started off listening to underground memphis and houston shit and lots of punk so I'm sure plenty noise fans could dig

I don't hear anything dark and lo-fi here, only some ordinary boring rap vocals and beats. You should check Dalek.

Love Dalek.
This is kind of dark in the cheesy way and unintentionally lo-fi with very amateur production skill
it's good shit especially when high but not something super serious like Dalek.

If you like Dalek tho you should look at Death Grips and (not completely hip-hop, but rhythmic ear rape noise)dreamcrusher, and clipping is ok too but it gets kind of gimmicky because the noise isnt mixed to well with the beats but more just randomly thrown on

Any production with overblown sub 808 bass in a casette https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XGMeCIKM2zE (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XGMeCIKM2zE)

Dalek was cool when Still was in it, but this is something else entirely.

Its one of my favorites
people can say this music is shit but lowdown and Maniac too are more scary than lots of half assed PE vocalist.of course not as good as the greats tho..

but For rap i love the hard thug shit, or hard hitting experimental stuff. never was a big fan of socially concious stuff

Death Grips are incredible.I'll be seeing them in a couple weeks with Lyrics Born, Tyler the Creator & others at a fest in Sacramento.

i saw them a few years back. i'd love to see them
play some of the material from jenny death though.

i was still pretty lucky though i got to see them play No Love.

on the topic of this stuff B L A C K I E is also great. its total noise rap on True Spirit but GEN is a punk-folk-noise rap album thats real personal
He also recently put out this free jazz-noise album
also great live.based in houston
