Milc & Andy Savoie 'Windbreaker XL' album out July 21st: freshselects.bandcamp.com/album/windbreaker-xl

The official debut duo project from rapper Milc and producer Andy Savoie. 

One of Portland’s most brazenly true-to-life lyricists teams up with the multi-talented Portland-raised, Seattle-based producer/musician – both dead-set on the explicit mission of creating a Pacific NW classic. Joining the cause are Portland’s own Soop Dread & Farnell Newton, with Seattle’s Greg Cypher, La, Chima The Stubborn, C'est La and Elan Wright, plus the Big Homie of the group – West Coast all-star, L.A. representative, Blu. 

Originally a 8 track long EP, 'Windbreaker XL' now expands the project to a full-length album, with 5 all new tracks pulled from the original album sessions.

Windbreaker

Milc & Andy Savoie "Turn Pike"

'Winderbreaker XL' + limited run of "Hasbulla" shirts out now: smarturl.it/windbreakerxl

Pacific Northwest rap duo Milc & Andy Savoie will be following up their ‘Windbreaker’ EP project this July with a deluxe, full-length LP version, entitled ‘Windbreaker XL’ (naturally).  With the original already considered somewhat of a local classic among Portland & Seattle rap fans, the project is now expanded with 5 more additional songs – all pulled from the original EP recording sessions.  

To announce the new ‘XL’ version, the duo offer up a new single, “Hasbulla” – named after the viral Dagestanian sensation himself, who fans have come to associate with bearing a similar likeness & general familiar energy to Milc.  Joining them on the song is returning EP guest, Seattle’s own, Greg Cypher – making for another full-on rap clinic from two of the absolute best in their region.  

Inspired by the format of classic Gang Starr posses cuts like “I’m The Man” and “Speak Ya Clout” – producer Andy Savoie flexes how prolific & consistent he is with the beats by providing each MC’s verse with its own completely separate instrumental, merging the two seamlessly with intercut samples from vintage Blazers vs. Sonics games, once again re-informing the album’s interstate connective tissue.  Among the many quotable lines that two talents each crammed their respective verses with, some stand-outs include Greg Cypher tipping his cap to El-P’s first group to show how in-demand he and his crew have become (“dropping [LP’s/El-P] – they want to see my [company flow / Company Flow]!”), and for the sports enthusiasts, Milc compares a co-conspirator of his to Miami player Udonis Haslem, as they both "did a lot for the [heat/Heat]."

Escapism takes many forms, but we all share the impulse of running from our situation once in a while. On his new single, Ivan sings a love song to his "Running Shoes", while dodging problems with every stride. Face all your problems right now or lace up and escape with him on this Kiefer x Like produced cut off Ave's forthcoming "Every Eye" LP.

For My Ladies (feat. Rocco Palladino & Charlie Stacey)

Stream/Order 7": ivan-ave.ffm.to/hopenope
Pre-save/order album "Double Goodbyes": ivan-ave.ffm.to/doublegoodbyes

This is the daydreamer’s anthem on the record, part escapism, part war cry. The rap verse came out sweet but dystopian. Sasac saves the day on the last verse, with a medieval guitar solo that makes me hopeful again. Hope seems to be the most important overarching theme of the album when I listen back to it. I’ve learned to respect cognitive dissonance as a weapon, a survival instinct maybe, in darwinian terms. Double edged sword though.
