the clean upn hour 1

This is an archive of The Clean Up Hour, which should air March 12, 2021 on CKMS 102.7. Tonight marks 100 episodes of the show, so I decided to dig through my archives and deliver y'all a mix of artists who we haven't heard from since 2016 at the latest. A lot of these artists dropped projects at the beginning of my obsession with the "blog era," so tonight's mix is like going back in time.

I also did a mini All Things Considered about Shane Eli, who completely fell off my radar after going quite quiet post-2011. However, I just did a bit more digging and found some recent tracks; that being said, I still stand by my reasoning for doing a min-ATC about his music!

Guillotine
Lullabye
The Feeling (feat. Julius Francis)

The Clean Up Hour, Mix 101 (March 19, 2021): Mini-ATC #7 [Shane Eli]

This is an archive of The Clean Up Hour, which should air February 26, 2021 on CKMS 102.7. Tonight is a new All Things Considered where I make the case for David Dallas, an artist whose ear for production and everyman lyricism completely justifies his status as the face of New Zealand Hip-Hop. Though he fell off my radar following The Rost Tint -- much to my shame -- he's been doing a lot of dope shit this past decade.

The Clean Up Hour, Mix 102 (March 26, 2021): All Things Considered 19 [David Dallas]

This is an archive of The Clean Up Hour, which should air April 2, 2021 on CKMS 102.7. With March 31st marking the 2nd year since the tragic, senseless murder of Nipsey Hussle, tonight's mix is another dedication to a visionary. Nip's absence still feels like a black hole in a genre that has endured one too many tragedies. 

All tracks are by Nipsey Hussle unless noted otherwise.

The Clean Up Hour, Mix 81 (October 30, 2020): An Odd Future Mix

This is an archive of The Clean Up Hour, which should air March 5, 2021. As the title indicates, tonight is a dedication to The Fat Boys. Following the death of Prince Markie Dee, I felt it important to pay respect and homage to a group who was a part of the foundation of Hip Hop's commercial ascension. I also lament how The Fat Boys has been perceived by critics.

Also doing slowed + reverb music now lol

To those of you looking for the slowed + reverb version of "Benji the Dog" by Mac Miller (RIP), it was copyright claimed after 15,000 plays. If you're desperate for the mp3, dm me here and we can work something out.
