Prominent Use of Synth

Drankenstein by Bird Peterson

I can’t believe I missed this last year. It’s honestly one of the sickest mixtapes I’ve ever heard.

This is my amalgamation of two trends i’ve always loved: the dirty south and the use of trance synths in current rap. Here I have taken 15 or so of my favorite southern rap songs and 15 or so of my favorite trance synth lines to create something thats not corny or funny, it’s simply the motherfudgin’ jam!

Friday Slink: There He Go by Fabolous (buy)

Late on the holiday slink.  I’m sifting through the albums mentioned in AZ’s 100 Best Rap Songs of 2009 and finding more (cheesy) gems like this.  Produced by Blackout Movement (cf. “This is Why I’m Hot”).

Friday Slink:  Something Bigger, Something Better by Amanda Blank

Better late than never, and NSFW.  But really, check out the entire album, I Love You (iTunes).  From “A Love Song” to “Shame on Me” to “Gimme What You Got”, it has a little something for everyone, and the production is bangin’.

Hi, I'm Robbie Mitchell.
I live in NYC, work at Knewton, and co-founded a sweet educational rap company.

I obsess about data analysis and minor progressions.
