DON’T SLEEP: Luigi-Bo87 (Buff Shagwell) “Rookie Card (Draft Batch)” [BEAT TAPE]

The homie Luigi-Bo87 AKA Buff Shagwell is a contributor to Hypedog Hip Hop as well as a manager of several up & coming producers himself. Homie copped a Maschine and has been making slaps for a while now. Here’s his first official beat tape called “Rookie Card (Draft Batch)”. Don’t sleep on it…

DON’T SLEEP: Buff Swagwell “The Voices…” (prod. by Buff Shagwell) [INSTRUMENTAL]

It wasn’t that long ago that I was frequenting the site Hypedog Hip Hop and going back and forth with fellow Blap afficinado LuigiBo about new producers, beat tapes, instrumental albums and the magic box commonly known as the Native Instruments Maschine. Then Lu went out and copped one, spent considerable time honing his skills until Buff Swagwell emerged with the first track he’s posted up for public consumption called “The Voices…”. I dig it. DON’T SLEEP!

DON’T SLEEP: Makes Van “Sampler Beats No. 1 & No. 2” [INSTRUMENTAL MIXES]

Russian beatmaker Makes Van first caught my attention via a recent post over @ Hypedog. After he hit me up on Twitter, I checked out his Soundcloud page & was pretty impressed. Also check out his instrumental projects “Broken Soviet Rhythm” & “Phatmusic [LP]”. Don’t sleep…

DON’T SLEEP: Hypedog Hip Hop x SABeats “New Era Vol. 1” [BEAT TAPE]

The newest Hypedog Hip Hop instrumental project comes courtesy of Rotterdam based (Netherlands) beatmaker/producer SABeats. “New Era Vol. 1” is everything you want to beat tape to be and it’s earned a spot in my iPod Touch and you can expect to hear some selections from it on the next edition of The Scrunchface Show. Don’t sleep!

DON’T SLEEP: Kaytradamus “Merrymaking Music” [INSTRUMENTAL ALBUM]

Kaytradamus just recently dropped an instrumental project that immediately reminded me of the old Armand Van Helden “Sampleslaya” days. This dude clearly grew up a fan of Cassius, Daft Punk, Bassment Jaxx, etc. and he did his thing on “Merrymaking Music”. I actually thought that the new Duck Sauce would be more like the blaps on “Merrymaking Music” sound. You should definitely peep this and cop it if you’re into that kinda stuff. Don’t sleep…

DON’T SLEEP: TEK.LUN (Teknowledge) “Sweet” (prod. by TEK.LUN) [SINGLE]

The newest jawn by Hypedog Hip Hop regular featuree TEK.LUN  (AKA Teknowledge) just went up this weekend. It’s called “Sweet” and it’s the lead single off TEK.LUN’s “EVOL (O)VE” LP due out in August.


DON’T SLEEP: Munoz “New Shit” [BEAT MIX]

Munoz is one of our extended family Hypedog Hip Hop‘s favorite young producers. One day he’ll destroy the Red Bull Big Tune (provided there’s ever another one). The young homie is also 15 so he still has time to make the entire Hip Hop production world quake in it’s boots. With no further ado I present the 15 minute mix “New Shit” (provided it embeds properly). It didn’t. Just click the link provided HERE. Or watch the Youtube video embedded below:

DON’T SLEEP: Infamous Reptar “Shades Of Grey EP” [FREE BEAT TAPE]

 

This Infamous Reptar release is just as ridiculous as his previous Producers I Know appearance, “1UP” so I suggest y’all fux with “Shades Of Grey” as well. You can download this jawn from Hypedog Hip Hop as they had their heads on a swivel and posted it up first. Get over there…

DON’T SLEEP: Ahwlee “Relocated EP” & “Bumps” [BEAT TAPES]

I was on one of my epic beat tape posting streaks and my piece of shit laptop almost imploded (not exploded, trust me on this one) dude to overuse. My boy Luigi-B087 @ Hypedog Hip Hop sent me a Bandcamp link to Ahwlee‘s “Relocated EP” . Later on, he posted the Mediafire link to his beat tape “Bumps” that he caught on Twitter recently on my Facebook page. I JUST opened my laptop after putting it on ice for a while and go to listening. God call, Lu! Check these jawns out…

DON’T SLEEP: Munoz “A Day In The Life 3” (Free D/L)

Munoz is a regular on Bloggerhouse‘s The Scrunchface Show as well as the site Hip Hop Hypedog. We were in awe of his production going back to his “Bring The Heat EP” and his more recent effort, the Hypedog sponsored “Hip Hop’s Best Kept Secret”. Now we get 39 blaps from the 14 year old beat prodigy himself on “A Day In The Life 3”. Between him and VohnBeatz (13 year old son of producer Symbolyc One whose instrumental project “New Kid On The Block” dropped last year) Hip Hop production has a bright future and is in more than capable hands. Don’t sleep, download the project “A Day In The Life 3” HERE
