http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/restocks.php This page also includes older releases that are new to our store. en-us http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/16618 info@accesshiphop.com DJ DREZ, MYKA 9 and JtheSarge disguised as globe trotting genies! I love the name of the group, the title of the album, the album itself and I love the idea behind it! The concept is love of course. But the essence of the message is not just understanding the meaning by definition, but its purpose overall. If the body cannot live without the mind, than love can't exist without the heart. Basically, through organic vibes and conscious albums such as these, we can set aside ideologies as they pertain to our personal, political and philosophical beliefs and even those related to the current state of hip hop if not just music in general, and focus on our lives as individuals with the power of free will to experience the world abroad. http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/18484 info@accesshiphop.com http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/17724 info@accesshiphop.com Even though hip hop out of the UK is in the English language the accents can sometimes still come across so foreign to American audiences. But Emcee Teknical Developments alongside producer Hey!zeus really made it hard for me to tell they are from London because Project Mooncircle and Hip Hop Vinyl have released yet another gem! This label has been so consistent over the years that it's become almost impossible to find a bad release. Jazzy beats, but a little darker and abstract with conscious lyrics may sound cliche in the underground but this one's an exception. It's deep, it's meditative, it's not grime-rap...this is pure hip hop. The atmosphere of the album kind of reminded me of Serengeti and Polyphonic's Anticon release Terradactyl (my top pick of 2009). Obba Supa is a real surprise and pretty much blew me away...Heat! http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/17725 info@accesshiphop.com Even though hip hop out of the UK is in the English language the accents can sometimes still come across so foreign to American audiences.

Still Hear Follows up his 2007 album Burgundy (The Antebellum Collection), and teams him with producer Rashid Hadee who has produced for a number of other Chicago area artists and even a track on Little Brother's Get Back. Featuring guest appearances by Infinito 2017, Longshot and more. It's got both a late 90's and current feel set to the backdrop of Southside Chicago and overall is definitely not one to sleep on. http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/16502 info@accesshiphop.com Who Is This Man? is the other new album from John Robinson produced entirely by MF Doom. Executed in the brilliant classic story line fashion that MF Doom is known for it acts like an audio- biography of the mind and heart of a man named John Robinson and his stealth quest to uphold hip hop culture to the fullest. With his Nas-like vocal tone and calm demeanor akin to C.L Smooth, Robinson aka Lil Sci of Scienz Of Life has been rocking mics since the early 90's. All scratches and cuts by DJ Rhettmatic of the World Famous Beat Junkies and again it is produced by MF Doom. http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/17516 info@accesshiphop.com Rush Hour Records presents Beat Dimensions Volume Two! Compiled by Cinnaman and Jay Scarlett and featuring soon to be known in a much better light names including Danny Breaks, DJ Adlib, Mono/Poly, Dizz1, Dimlite and more! Featuring a lot of Flying Lotus style beats for comparison, with a little dubstep, but just think of a harder version of both, raw and dirty but not alienating to the listener. Basically, the headnod factor is through the roof! Broken up into two EP's with a third on the way...HEAT! http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/2439 info@accesshiphop.com 2005 re-release by the Sound In Color label. Newly remastered, with two new beats added. For those who missed it the first time and the second time, with brand spankin new full-color jacket but the same fresh beats you've been craving. This is the instrumentals from Aceyalone and Mumbles' classic album, 'Book of Human Language'. Dopeness!<br><br>Please note: current stock is in a plain, white jacket. http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/13855 info@accesshiphop.com Like Mr. Lif's Sleepy Heads 1&2, Chorus Rhyme is a limited edition release of classic collabs and exclusives. C-Rayz fans will not want miss out, and if your just barely getting into this incredibly gifted mc, perhaps this is the perfect start. Featuring Immortal Technique, R.A. The Rugged Man and Sean Price, along with 27 others on a single track!!! http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/16871 info@accesshiphop.com Often we need reminders on what separates the underground from the unsigned wannabee rappers and their mainstream counterparts and this is one of those examples! Roughneck Jihad of Third Sight teams up with DJ Ruthless and D-Styles for some raw, hardcore, abstract, circus-style raps, rough beats and scratching. It's a bizarre ride but you enjoy every twist, turn and loop-d-loop they take you through. It's the type of hip hop that, again, reminds us why even in the underground things are always going to be different and changing; but there are always people who think they have the right definitions for what makes the underground what it is...and this is the type of album that tells those people to GTFO! Word http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/15940 info@accesshiphop.com Phenomenal downtempo instrumental album from soon-to-be talked about producer Glen Porter! Moody, beautiful and dreamy and most importantly it is instantly hypnotic and uncontrollably headnod-inducing...you'll find yourself in a strange state of melancholic bliss upon listening. But I suppose I am one of those people who takes their instrumental hip hop way too seriously so let me be clear when I say there is a difference between beats and instrumental production, because these are expertly crafted epic soundscapes that will be considered timeless for years to come. Something Glue allows your mind to wander and paint the pictures of the music in your head...like the perfect song choice for the ending credits to a movie, or the soundtrack montage of your own life story as if played back on celluloid as you close your eyes. Absolutely breathtaking! http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/18465 info@accesshiphop.com http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/17869 info@accesshiphop.com Smoothness Extract (Deep Night At Ishigaki) is Lambent's third full-length album, and his first on the Project Mooncircle label. Whilst his earlier work was rooted in Ambient and Electronic music, this record presents his sound in the context of Instrumental Hip Hop, with strong elements of Electronic music still present. You could group this record with the recent wave of Dilla inspired Hip Hop, but equally you could group it with Autechre when they're at 90 BPM. The record came about after Project Mooncircle heard some of Lambent's tracks and fell in love with the calmer and smoother pieces of his often intense sound. Hence, Lambent compiled these seventeen extracts from the smoother side of his repertoire. This album is made as his dedication towards a small Japanese island, the Isle of Ishigaki. Lambent is originally from Japan (although he has lived in Berlin for many years), but he has never visited this place. The album is the sound track to a summer time night trip around the Island, visiting the many different aspects of the scenery, nature, feelings, emotions, sights and sounds as Lambent imagines them. http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/18181 info@accesshiphop.com Smoothness Extract (Deep Night At Ishigaki) is Lambent's third full-length album, and his first on the Project Mooncircle label.

Some songs you might already have, others, maybe not, but why try and track 'em all down when you can have it all on one dope cd. Mixed by DJ Mere One of the Oakland Faders. http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/3903 info@accesshiphop.com This is some of the Hardest Shit i have ever heard in my measly little life... It's the instrumental version to the enormously dope "Book of Human Language" album by Aceyalone. Stripped of its vocals here the listener has a chance to absorb the beats fully. Major worldwide distribution on pressed CD in 2005 (previously released as a limited edition cdr). http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/17388 info@accesshiphop.com http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/11977 info@accesshiphop.com Just another reason why we tend to love whatever Lex puts out next. The beats are heavy and worldly. Think Madlib meets Visioneers in a jazzy way with a little bit of brazilian influence to it. Like the album title suggests, it truly feels like Dr. Who Dat (aka Jneiro Jarel) is taking you on a beat filled journey down the Amazon. http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/6600 info@accesshiphop.com Z-Man takes you on a witty ride full of comedic characters and clever story-telling.

Pick this one up if you want some substance.... http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/18227 info@accesshiphop.com Through the course of his career as a solo artist and member of the Visionaries, LMNO has worked with some of the world's best beat-makers including: JayDee, Pete Rock, Madlib, OhNo, Beat Junkies JRocc, Babu, Rhettmatic, and more. With a high standard for superb production, LMNO launches out of the West Coast underground and collaborates with one of France's premiere emerging producers Yann Kesz. With gritty soulful samples and undulating beat production, it only seems appropriate that these two gems + single exclusive from the full-length album Devilish Dandruff With Holy Shampoo, would be released on the trustiest format for hip-hop, ahh yess, vinyl. http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/14306 info@accesshiphop.com http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/9113 info@accesshiphop.com http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/5017 info@accesshiphop.com http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/4160 info@accesshiphop.com Every Drez CD we have is limited and dope as hell!!!!

For fans of the time-traveling styles of fellow label mate James Pants or Anticon's Tobacco, the synth-y, p-funky four track maxi-12" follow up to his previous single "Burgundy City" is yet another mind boggling trip back to the early 80's or late 70's style of forgotten electronic funk. Seriously, was this guy placed in a cryogenic chamber and thawed out by Peanut Butter Wolf?! Dam Funk is truly a mad-funk scientist and hopefully a full length is due out soon. http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/17882 info@accesshiphop.com After coining the term "Jazz-Hop"; with The Liquid Crystal Projects J Rawls is back on his Polar imprint with another installment of Jazz-Hop excitement!

I'm a big fan of Drez and this one is just awesome! Like the title says, it's got a Middle East vibe to it. No doubt! Drez basically played all the percussion and layed the keys down and brought some other cats in to rock stuff like the guitar and the sitar is amazing! Super solid album, good to mellow out and vibe to while it takes you to another world... http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/4161 info@accesshiphop.com This is a trip into the realm of dub and no one takes it there like the Doctor.

Founded by two of the Vancouver's most recognized MCs, Mad Child and Prevail, along with the help of DJ Rob The Viking, the group has created a huge fan base while staying completely independent under their own label Battle Axe Records. Swollen had taken a break over the past few years while Mad Child dealt with some legal issues, but, the group has come back stronger than ever with their brand new album Armed To The Teeth which Prevail says "a prequel to another new album that will becoming out in 2010 called Beautiful Death Machine." Featuring guest appearances by Talib Kweli, Moka Only, Krondon & Phil Da Agony (of Strong Arm Steady), Everlast & Slaine (of La Coka Nostra) Tech N9NE and newly added member Tre Nyce.

Combining organic, jazzy hip hop, with world-beat, African and Middle Eastern instruments and rhythms, Jahta Beat 2 picks up right where the original left off! Very meditative and easy to get lost in, Drez has captivated us with what I believe must be a hundred unique mixes by now. The range of his musical knowledge is manifest in his new creation, the Progression. http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/8480 info@accesshiphop.com Single from the MM Food album with a special remix of the title track by ANT (Atmosphere). http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/15715 info@accesshiphop.com This could be considered an ultimate battle record.

For fans of Bully Records! http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/6735 info@accesshiphop.com http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/523 info@accesshiphop.com Finally! One of the most sought after releases by the elusive MF Doom finally gets re-issued for a whole new generation of fans that missed out on this during the heyday of its original release in 1999 and its subsequent re-issue in 2001. Previously there were issues over the unauthorized use of the Marvel Comics imagery of the Fantastic Four's arch enemy Dr. Doom, who dons the metal mask to hide his scarred face and is bent on world domination. Now that the comic book leader of the industry has a mountain of cash from the film adaptations of most of their major properties, going after the little guy must no longer be on the list, not even the shortlist. It was a different story in the late 90's when they almost went bankrupt and tried to squeeze every little penny they could, resulting in the cease and desist that pulled Operation Doomsday from shelves and some speculate, may have caused some of the financial hardships of Fondle 'Em Records. Enough with my geek-gasms though, and let's rejoice, it's finally back, and even though it bounced around to many different labels promising a huge re-packaging and special edition, it eventually made its rightful way back to Viktor Vaughn the villain himself on Metal Face Records. An undisputed underground classic, and not necessarily the one that put Doom on the map, but the one that got the ball rolling! http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/15033 info@accesshiphop.com One of Japan's most renowned break manipulators, Kogataroo is infamous for rocking the hell out of a dance floor.

Known for not only his music and legendary beef with Eminem (each claimed the other had appropriated the style of tightly controlled delivery and unsettling subject matter), but also his life story. Many of his lyrics were inspired by his experiences in a mental institution as a teenager.

For a 20-year-old, his raw talent, songwriting ability and versatility, is very mature; and as child from the 90's rather than the 80's his love for traditional and golden era hip hop is evident over Exiles production on the entire album. "Boy Meets World is just a story about a kid growing up," explains Fashawn. "It's my story, it's very honest, it's very in depth. So whatever you thought you knew about me, listen to this and you'll really get a good look at who I am. It's going to be classic."

Despite all of the advances in computer recording technology, home studios, and electronic instruments, nothing quite comes close to the analog recording techniques of the past for recreating the mood and sound of vintage funk and soul. El Michels Affair are among the leaders of a resurgent movement from New York City that's sweeping the music communities around the world to renew interest in the forgotten sounds that still inspire many to this day. After finding a hip hop audience they were beckoned to back Raekwon on a special tour sponsored by Scion, which lead to the amazingly dope single "The PJ's (remix)" featuring the Wu-emcee on Leon Michel's and Jeff Silverman's Truth and Soul Records.

Getting praise already from big time celebs like Justin Timberlake and John Mayer, and even Ghostface Killah jumping on board and snatching him up for a tour, Hawthorne is the new "It" kid in many music circles! His almost fetishistic love for 50's and 60's motown is matched only by his authentic ability to re-create it! So convincing, so freakishly accurate it's almost scary. Throwback is "in" right now, and I mean to reference Sharon Jones and the Daptones, Budos Band, El Michel's Affair, and plenty of others who bring a real vibrant and traditional funk and soul sound that you'd be able to fool an expert with. A Strange Arrangement brings it back to the sad solo vocalist, to the unique love ballads of doo wop in its hey day! I say this all the time...but hearing is believing...seriously! Everything is coming back full circle, where funk and soul were some of the groundwork that made hip hop music possible, we've come back to love and appreciate just why that is with this revivalist revolution.

With no formal vocal training, and only his love and passion for authentic 70's Funk and Soul, the vinyl junkie played the instruments and produced his own work and pieced it all together to win over the likes of Peanut Butter Wolf and make fans out Gilles Peterson. Upon hearing, it is unbelievable to think that this all came from one man, now a front runner for the revivalist movement that has blown up over the last few years. Honestly, if you heard this single with no knowledge of it all, you'd be fooled into thinking it actually came from the 70's!

Suite For Ma Dukes grew out of when Nino hired Atwood-Ferguson's string quartet, Supernova, to perform on Dwight Trible & The Life Force Trio's "Love is the Answer" (Ninja Tune) in 2004. On that same Dwight Tribble album project, Nino met and then licensed a track from one of his heroes, James "Jay Dee/J Dilla" Yancey. After Dilla's untimely death only two years later, Nino and Atwood-Ferguson chose to pay tribute to Dilla by continuing the musical conversation that he had started, but in the contemporary chamber music style that Atwood-Ferguson had been developing. Suite for Ma Dukes is the first official release of this music and is Hip Hop as you have never heard. All four tracks cover Dilla's magic, giving treatment to Jay Dee classics from Common, A Tribe Called Quest, and Slum Village. In each, the harmonic and melodic beauty of Dilla's music is liberated. Earlier this year, the project received the official blessing from Ma Dukes herself and part of the proceeds from the record will go to Dilla's heirs. http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/9364 info@accesshiphop.com Wow oh wow, this is one of Prince Paul's best!!!

Two bonus tracks are not on the digital release. http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/12139 info@accesshiphop.com This is the album that Myka originally released on his website, mykanyne.com for free to his fans for being so great over the years..But here it is for you to purchase one now! Overall, this album is dope and pretty much goes along the lines of the 'American Nighmare' album. Very good and holds weight throughout. Mykah is known well for switching up styles and this album is no exception, because he'll switch it up for you in classic Mykah Nyne taste that is sure to have all the Mykah/Freestyle Fellowship fans rockin' for quite a long time.. http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/15329 info@accesshiphop.com Strange Famous Records branches out to become a full-fledged music label that will now sign and release new artists and groups starting with Prolyphic and Reanimator's The Ugly Truth. Prolyphic hails from label owner Sage Francis' hometown of Providence, Rhode Island with his longtime collaborator and producer Reanimator from Chicago. This handpicked duo has turned out to be just the right combination as Prolyphic delivers powerful rhymes over Reanimator's heavily layered beats. If you're a fan of Galapogos4 stuff, Glue or Anticon's earlier releases, this one won't disappoint! http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/3037 info@accesshiphop.com http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/3213 info@accesshiphop.com The self-proclaimed inventor of goth-rap brings dark and emotional beats to the plate and holds his own with a solitary guest appearance from Dose One. http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/10821 info@accesshiphop.com The long wait for Soft Money is over. This album does not disappoint with it's well crafted hard hitting beats! http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/17861 info@accesshiphop.com Brand new from Why? as Yoni Wolf has adopted his stage name to include his entire band which also includes his brother Josiah on drums. For quite a few years now Why?'s work on Anticon can no longer be classified as hip hop, folk hop or even avant garde hop as it used to get labeled. These days they are more indie rock than anything, but there is still something about their sound that makes it different from everything else. On an interesting note...many of these tracks were recorded during their 2007 sessions in the making of Alopecia. Longtime fans won't want to miss out. http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/16685 info@accesshiphop.com Daaammmn! Anticon veteran producer and beatsmith Odd Nosdam serves up some raw beats on this soundtrack to the Element Skateboarding video, This Is My Element. Really it's the first of its kind as far as tapping a producer to compose original music for the segments included throughout the film. Again the beats here are raw and hard as hell, simple and quick to the point, more in touch with what Odd Nosdam used to crank out back in the earlier days of Plan 9, Meat Your Hypnotist, and No More Wig For Ohio. Anticon naysayers might actually dig this, and longtime fans like myself already know what's up! HEAT! http://www.accesshiphop.com/store/10058 info@accesshiphop.com Fresh new release off of Thes One's label.
