Bandcamp Friday Deals
- Suicide Squeeze Records: As part of their 30th anniversary celebration, from today through November 8th, they're offering a blowout sale with their entire digital catlog set to Pay What You Want, and discounts on all physical formats. Good time to pick up joints from What's Good faves like L.A. Witch, The Coathangers, and Death Valley Girls. See their community post for full details.
- Flobama: As is his custom, a new Bandcamp Friday means a new batch of jungle remixes, this time with a pack of five Janet Jackson flips. All his previous remixes are available for today only as well.
- Dirty Art Club: All of Dirty Art Club's catalog is Pay What You Want, including his excellent LP with YUNGMORPHEUS A Spyglass to One's Face as well as the instrumentals.
- TV-MA: The homey is having a birthday month sale, for now until 11/15, all their digital albums are Pay What You Want, and all his merch is marked down in increments of 6-7. Pick up a snazzy All Cats Are Beautiful sticker, why not?
- Ghostly International: Ghostly's added a bunch of Japan Only editions of CDs from their artists, including What's Good featured joints like no scope by crushed, and Cherry Blossom Baby by Shigeto.
- Remy Banks: Not a strictly Bandcamp Friday thing, but one of my blog era faves Remy Banks released his new album today, sole nero, but because there's no new single I had nowhere else to put it. My blog, my rules, so here it is, cop it on Bandcamp or at endorsed by remy banks (vinyl courtesy of Fused Arrow Records, btw).
- Wino Willy: Wino Willy's collection of flips is live, and if you purchase it you get a 25% off code for their sample packs store.
- fuzzy...: FKA fuzzybuttocks has a new flip out for Bandcamp Friday, and you get an exclusive tape with purchase.
There's a whole lot more if you look around, but anything you purchase on Bandcamp today puts the platform's normal revenue split back into the artists and labels' pockets. So make some of your favorites days a little brighter and cop some music, either from the deals above, from the archives, or this week's drops down below.

Wiki pulled up on The Lot NYC for a "Nightmare on Papiseed Steet" set, celebrating the most recent volume in his Papiseed Street mixtape series.
Chanpan blessed the KEXP studios with a set of jams from their debut autogratis.
Matthew Ritchie
In an interview with Matthew Ritchie for POW MAG, Radamiz opens up about working with Mahershala Ali on Bottom of Heaven I.
Did that feel like a greater sense of freedom? Like, “I can put my foot on the gas pedal a little bit more.”
I think I have someone who is auditing me like a coach who believes that you already have the qualities to be the best MC. But that’s a very specific chiseling, because I don’t get away with from a producer who’s just a fan and is hyped to just get a Radamiz verse. It doesn’t mean it’s a bad thing. It just means that you may not be as critical of me in the way that I need at this moment.
The benefit of working with an actor, and he’s an artist, is that he don’t let me get away with what might not be believable. Sometimes it ain’t even a bar. It’s just, “I don’t believe you,” and he’ll let me know why it feels like I’m not telling the truth. That’s just very up close in the process of being an artist. I’m someone who cares about how I’m using spaces, what I’m evoking, and making sure I’m doing my best to present in the work, no matter the success rate of it, because then I feel like I’m always alive. So if there are bars or moments where I’m overperforming or I’m not believable, he checks me on that. Honestly, he’s made me a better artist because it’s not like he’s being overly nitpicky, but actually I think he’s being encouraging. It keeps us intact. And obviously, it goes the other way as well.
The full set of Nick Hakim's stop at The Troubadour in Los Angeles for his I Can See tour is live on his YouTube channel.
MX LONELY rips through "Return To Sender" from ALL MONSTERS at the Luxembourg stop of their currently rolling European tour.
International Anthem released this performance of "11.11" from megiapa's release party for Intentions, live from 2220 Arts + Archives in Los Angeles.
Normally a new album release just goes into the Music section below, but Mike Ladd's distinguished himself by offering a full short film accompaniment that I couldn't let get passed over. Brought to you by Mike Ladd and Ben Gordon, the Nonechosen album film performance takes you through the whole album from start to finish with appearances from his mother, educational pioneer Florence Ladd. Do yourself a favor and peep it, then go cop the album at Backwoodz or Bandcamp.
Back in September, Shabazz Palaces hit up hometown turf at KEXP for a set with a couple songs from their debut Black Up and a couple of joints from this month's It's A Style Sport, as well as a short interview with Stas THEE Boss. Enjoy.
Yussef Dayes and company continue their world travels with Live In Ethiopia: Back To The Origins, one part concert film, one part travelogue, taking you along on a trip through the country.
