DON’T SLEEP: MUJO情 “Demon Killer Tape” & “HOKUTO BLAPZ Vol. 1” [BEAT TAPES]
Roland SP 303 & 404 master MUJO情 dropped two beat tapes in the past 4 weeks many of you have slept on, “The Demon Killer Tape” & “HOKUTO BLAPZ Vol. 1” (which you’ll need to put $5 down on to hear in it’s entirety). To everyone running a beat culture/beat tape site: Stop relying on submissions! Get off your asses and look for new beat tapes because 80-85% of these cats don’t have publicists or people promoting them so unless you follow them ALL on social networks (provided they’re even on them) you have NO idea when they drop new shit unless you follow up on them all individually yourselves. Don’t sleep…

DON’T SLEEP: Narvu. “Architect.EP”, “Evidence.EP”, “Teardrops.EP”, “Repeat.EP” & “Strawberry.EP” [BEAT TAPES]
Here’s what happened, I posted up beat tapes from Naoto Taguchi in the past. Then he changed his name to Andherpackage and I continued to. He cranked out beat tapes at an impressive clip. Recently I received a message from an anonymous Twitter account that Naoto Taguchi steals beats. Actually, a few people got the message & said “he’ll just change his name again”. I then went to the Naoto Taguchi/Andherpackage Bandcamp & it was gone. I asked the account if it had any proof first. No more tweets came from it. Then I notice that Naoto/Andherpackage’s SoundCloud has now become Narvu. If he WAS a beat thief then HOW is he stealing SO many beats and who from that hasn’t spoke out yet (not anonymously)? I suspect it’s a marketing ploy until I get proof because if these beats ARE stolen then they’re ALL from the same person and they must be a really smart moron. Here are a gang of beat tapes. Don’t sleep…
