MYSTIC JUNGLE TRIBEやMOON Bといった才能の先物買いの成功で、その審美眼を信頼される〈GOING GOOD〉から、NONESUCH X DA GOONZなるMC陣を率いた奇才YOSHINORI HAYASHIプロデュース、魔境のレフトフィールド・ヒップホップ・カセットテープを入荷!!
今や世界のインディペンデントなダンスフロアから絶大な支持を集めるYOSHINORI HAYASHIをいち早くフックアップしたのも、世界がその才能に気づく前夜の2015年の”終端イーピー”時でしたが、本作はその後TODD MODES”SERPENT EP” よろしく、事あるごとに当レーベルの作品に絡んできた氏とレーベル・ボスBRIAN NOT BRIANの奇妙な信頼関係の賜物。
808のディケイで包んだ極太LO-FIリディムに詩的なリリックを載せながら、90’Sディーヴァ、ジャズ、ラテンやソウルの欠片を煙たく燻した、既存フォーマットを切り裂くアブストラクト・ヒップホップ。〈GOING GOOD〉のボスBRIAN NOT BRIANとの直接ディールでしか入手できない全世界100本限定、B-BOY IZMとニヒリズムが霞がかる魔境の代物です。
Nonesuch X Da Goonz are:
Battahshit (MC) Works in a downtown spraypaint shop. He's also a beat-maker. He's good-natured but sometimes is depressed. He don't eat a lot of food.
Nakaano (Selected sampling sources, non-beat) A big guy with a skinhead. A collector of avant-garde records. He looks strong, but he is a chicken. He's in debt and keeps buying more and more records. He drinks a lot of alcohol.
SHIMPEI (Selected sampling source, beats) That guy with the New Era cap on. He DJs hip-hop, all on 7". He always checks out hip-hop from the 00's that has only been cut on unofficial Jamaican releases. He knows a lot about hip-hop. Including drum breaks.
Yoshinori Hayashi (Track builder, producer) Mysterious man. Going Good alumni and worldwide producer. Explorer of the farthest sonics. A record omnivore who's tastes range from ambient to hip-hop to techno and beyond. The end of the edge in human form.
A super limited run of 100 tapes worldwide. Artwork by Atelier Superplus. Professionally duped and printed by Tapeline, Stockport.
