RHYMESAYERS & CARHARTT: Mix competition (2011)

Ah – the mixtape, still with us despite the lack of – well…tape, really. So not actually a mix ‘tape’ then – more just a digital mix. Now vinyl’s one thing (and I, for one, applaud its refusal to die) but I’m not even going to pretend I miss tape. What a shitty old format. It stretched, it got chewed up, if you held it too close to a magnet it got wiped – yes, a mixtape was a delicate thing back in the day and once created it was surrounded by enemies. Back to the present and now all you do is connect a cable or two, hit a couple of commands on your laptop or something, sit back and let a computer do all the difficult shit for you. This Rhymesayers/ Carhartt mixtape comp should be a piece of piss then. Full details below, beatslags!

(PRESS RELEASE)
Rhymesayers and Carhartt have combined forces to give you the chance to create the official Rhymesayers European Tour mixtape.
