You may have heard Clammy Clams' remix of the Wichita-native, XV's "Swervin" last year, but as the Clamster has been known to do, he's released an instrumental version of the track. Generally when a producer releases an instrumental, it doesn't really live up to the...
[pictured: B. Lewis] Have you ever run into some music online or live that absolutely captivated you from the jump? I just had one of those jaw-dropper moments about 20 minutes ago when KC's Miles Bonny posted a new track with his vocals over a B. Lewis beat. I wasn't...

[pictured: Miles Bonny] Miles and Stik add some passion and consciousness to Drake's "Headlines" beat. I've been a big fan of Miles' cover/remix work over the past few years. Beyond that, I think that he and Stik Figa are a great tandem. Miles Bonny HEADLINES REMIX...
The Weeknd's brand new mixtape, Echoes of Silence, just dropped last night. While Thursday was the underwhelming non-compliment to his great House of Balloons, we'll be sure to give this new thing a few spins in hopes that this one caps off his 2011 trilogy of mixtapes with a...

All three of these dudes put out fantastic new records this year. Drake's Take Care, Kendrick Lamar's Section 80 and ASAP's LiveLoveA$AP have all been in heavy rotation for me over the past few months. Just when I thought it would be quite a while before another...

After seeing some spins on Shade 45 recently, it figures that now would be a good time for the young Joey Cool to drop a new release. With features from C3, Gee Watts, Rashiyd Ashon, Landes, Bizzy and others, The Unexpected EP is another ripple in this movement of fresh rap...

This is the moment we've been waiting for over here at the Demencha HQ for several months. UK-based, 2011 production MVP, Star Slinger, and Kansas City-based soul/r&b artist, Reggie B, announced today that their song is out. And shockingly, it's a free download (GET IT...
While we're waiting to find out if there is cover art already made for this forthcoming project from Kansas City rap prince, Ron Ron, we thought it would only be right to keep you all informed on Rongoings. Be on the lookout for "Ron DMC 2.0" in a little less than a month. ...
Fit for a rainy day in KC comes Dan Matic's latest bandcamp release, Coeruleus, consisting of fifteen oddball beats somewhat less mean than his recent stuff (or at least our favorites from his previous releases). The KC-based, Reggie B, has a feature on here as well. Check...
Leonard DStroy's newest, the Inner Exit EP released on Friday, is a collection of some of the most sparkling beats we've heard all year. Lenny is predominantly known as the producer behind local indie hip hop stalwarts, Deep Thinkers and Kutty Slitz (who we hear is coming...
