Toothface Cometh

Disclaimer - More self promo to follow. Don't let that discourage you, though - this shit is pretty hot.


( HIP HOP BEATS / INSTRUMENTAL )

Toothface Swaggerfoot - Metawon + The Dirty Sample

Here's the write up from the label de jour, Neferiu. I'll add a little something afterwards.

*     *     *

Drunk & crunchy, punching with skunk funky, Toothface Swaggerfoot emerges from the back of the shittiest unknown pawn shop-slash-used book store you have ever seen. The only way to actually enter the shop itself is to ‘truly believe’ at which point you can shift your matter & pass through the walls. It’s that obscure. 

Hacking on years of extreme dust exposure, dude grants homies Metawon and the Dirty Sample VIP access to his stash. Then dies.

This collection of tracks is a beat-smithing collaboration between two of the most like-minded, skillful, forward thinking – and straight up filthy hip hop producers coming out of Western Canada. You’ve undoubtedly heard their ill shit on Neferiu Records before. If not, dig this here, then go find the rest.

We created this album while sharing a studio in Calgary and finished it up out here in Vanclouder. It was a project that helped to bring our styles and ability to work together much closer, while alowing us to explore elements of each others record collections and influences that otherwise would have remained dormant. We would share records, discuss techniques, vibe off each other, all the while following a loose concept of a misunderstood manster named Toothface. We selected the fifties and sixties as our primary source bank and went wild. This is the result, and it is pretty wicked. 

My man Nate, aka Mantrakid, is a good man who does good work over at Neferiu so don't sleep! Next up is a crazy Ghostface remix album from Dirty Samps. It is good. So is this.

Go get it!
