[pictured: Salva] Lawrence kid, Morri$, just had his track "Fishy Riddim" featured on Salva's latest DJ mix for The Fader. This whole mix is really dope, in its uniformed future funk fashion. Also, be on the lookout for our Artist of the Month feature on Morri$...

Kendrick Lamar's partner in rhyme, Schoolboy Q, is set to drop his newest, the "Habits & Contradictions" release on January 14th. This is the latest freebie floating around on the net, "Blessed", produced by Dave Free. Kendrick Lamar dropped my hands down favorite record of...
We don't usually go fishing around on other sites or "jackin for blogs" as I like to say, all in the name of stealing content, and I wish that I would've had time to make a personal favorite music chart of pieces and albums that came out last year with zero relevance to KC. ...
10. Young Fate - "All Gass" [prod. Mr. Fresh] Ladies and gentlemen, hit play and start your engines. This video player popped up in February and sees Fate spitting game over a real heat-rock from Mr. Fresh. While Young Fate verses are on my brain, his 16 on Ron Ron’s...
![KC-Based Beats/Electronic [2011 Music Picks]](http://demencha.com/wp-content/themes/widezine/thumb.php?src=http://demencha.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/NEZBEAT-EDIT.gif&w=200&h=200&zc=1&q=80&bid=1)
With more artists in KC doing experimental, beat music derivatives this year, I thought this separate chart would only be right. I don’t think I had near as many favorite local beats to refer to when the Demencha writers put together their 2010 music picks last year. But in...
![D/L: Leonard DStroy’s “ADHD” Album [out today on Elm & Oak Records]](http://demencha.com/wp-content/themes/widezine/thumb.php?src=http://demencha.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/lenny-d-EDIT.gif&w=200&h=200&zc=1&q=80&bid=1)
As we mentioned over the weekend, KC-beat guru, Leonard DStroy, has a new album coming out soon. Soon is today. The Elm & Oak label is calling this a "collage album", featuring over 50 beats in just nine tracks. The name behind the album seems rather simple now. We've always...

"Attention Deficit High Definition" (ADHD), the long-awaited beat album from Kansas City sound-shaper, Leonard DStroy, drops on Tuesday, December 27th. Elm & Oak decided it would be only right to throw out a leaked single from the project which sounds like a rather...

With a brand new album coming in January under the Archetype guise accompanied by longtime collaborator and MC, iD, new tracks from Lawrence-based producer, Nezbeat, kinda slipped under our radar. Nez just moved out to Oakland, CA and says there are no planned performances for...
![FEATURED ARTIST OF THE MONTH: Luke Rocha aka Topp Boom [Dec. 2011]](http://demencha.com/wp-content/themes/widezine/thumb.php?src=http://demencha.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/luke-rocha-EDIT-2-1024x488.gif&w=200&h=200&zc=1&q=80&bid=1)
Artist, Luke Rocha (aka beat-maker, Topp Boom) is DIY to the teeth. Having started the blasphemously slept-on SymbolHeavy.com in 2005 to now working with a certain Brooklyn indie-rock icon, (who we cannot name), Luke is constantly learning in addition to holding a distinctly...
