Those of us lucky enough have experienced the god sends of bootleggers. there was a day where bootlegging connoted murderous imagery and almost insurgency given prohibition was federal. 

Somehow in the early 00s; decades after not only alcohol had been once again legitimized but also has been fixed within hip hop as a extractor from the natural resources that black creations can prove to be for imperialist nations such as ours. 

Alcohol brands have been nothing short of havoc for the entire time the bootlegger moniker was pivoted over to people of a certain descent. Vendors doing the very best they can to get something out of nothing. never spending a single moment considering who they may be angering in whatever glass encased office likely a short train ride away. 

what were these individuals if not revolutionary. 

in the tradition of feeding the people;
Bootleg Radio & Finals.Radio bring you the celebratory “Bootleg Table”

Call It Grace

Borrowed Smile

This track, titled "Pro Human," is a pop-rock anthem featuring a prominent female lead vocalist. It begins with a stripped-back arrangement of acoustic guitar and vocals, gradually building in intensity and instrumentation. The production quality is high, with a clean and balanced mix that allows each element to shine. The sonic character evolves from intimate to expansive, reaching an anthemic peak in the choruses. The lead vocal is strong and clear, supported by layered backing vocals that add depth and emotional resonance. Acoustic guitar forms the backbone of the song, complemented by a solid rhythm section of bass and drums, and ambient keyboard pads. Subtle electric guitar lines add melodic interest and texture, particularly in the later sections. The structure follows a conventional pop song format with clear verses, pre-choruses, and an uplifting chorus, culminating in a powerful bridge before repeating the main theme.

bootleg table vol 5

originally uploaded in 2011.
breaking Da Bassment Demo Tape to the world was one of the coolest, serendipitous events of my life. i've been in love with the crew since i was a kid. the below blog post was my personal love letter to Da Bassment/Swing Mob, but through that i got to meet so many others who share my passion.
i've had it on good authority that some of the members have heard it, & even Timbo himself was told about the tape.
i guess the main reason i put it up at all was for the historical record, so we had SOMEthing these guys n gals worked on together during their formative years at Dahjelon Studios.

*update as of 15/09/2020:
-there are currently two separate efforts by fans to properly re-master and re-release this tape. hopefully we can have a hi-fi version of it sometime soon.
-it was recently confirmed that the girls from Sugah have re-united over the last few years (Tweet, Sue + Rolita), and are currently in the middle of releasing an EP, possibly followed by an album.
