V/A - “Pretext For Bumrush” Hip Hop Compilation Tracklist
“4 instrumental cuts and 25 rap tracks holding it down deviant rhymes, ranging from total bragado, to nerdy raps, to ultra-political bars and everything else in between, this comp represents one of many faces of Indonesian hip hop today. Involving emcees from two different eras, from the new slugs like Joe Million, Insthinc, Krowbar and Rand Slam to previous local hip hop icons like Eyefeelsix, D.P.M.B., Blakumuh, and (the new version of Homicide), Bars of Death. Cemented the boombap aesthetic as the foundation, the tracks vary in sounds. From hazy and blunted sounds, to up-tempo early 90s breaks, dark avant and classic soulful and jazzy tracks, this comp defies all precedents to reaffirm each position at the forefront of Indonesian hip hop landscape. This is hip hop marked with red letters, and marks the new renaissance era of Indonesian hip hop.”
