The Crate Tape EP will be the fourth solo release from Stateovmind and is entirely produced by Develop from FNQ’s Beat Basement Records.
This five track extended play sees Stateovmind move away from the cleaner sound of his previous releases and take a slight detour towards a much more raw “Boom Bap Sound”. The Crate Tape is a unique twist on a tried, tested and effective formula, and is inspired by a time when you listened to your favorite rap album on a dubbed TDK cassette tape.
Develop has dug deep into his record crates and picked the finest samples to chop, flip and play out on his MPC and the end result is what both he and State have deemed to be a local “homage to the style of hip hop” they both first discovered.
The Crate Tape EP will be released on both CD and digital download in late August 2014.
