Versus Pre-Show, MC & Producers Battle (Jan. 21-22 @ Riot Room)
...
Consider this a late Christmas present. I got an e-mail on Christmas morning from a guy based out of Milwaukee/Minneapolis who goes by Sashwat, regarding a 35-track dubstep compilation (unmixed) he's putting out on New Year's Eve. He digs the Demencha, and sent me the...
Barbaric Merits and Leonard DStroy will be appeasing your mid-week thirst for hardcore beats tonight, Tuesday the 7th at Riot Room in Westport. This should be a great example of the kind of music that Lenny has been cooking up lately, and why labels all over are taking...
Les informed me about this collabo he did with Rich The Factor a couple of weeks ago, and I just got the mp3 to my inbox yesterday which caused me to salivate profusely...ok, not exactly. But it was a pleasant surprise. This track pairs two Kansas City rap/hip hop titans,...
One of Demencha's newest cover guys, DR+, has finally figured out how to play music out live. He just sent us the link on facebook about 20 minutes ago. Here's his youtube description: "sorry the video has a slight delay that gets worse throughout the video. But yes...

The lil homie DR+, one of Kansas City's rising glitch/hip hop producers, hit us up with a brand new zip file, about six tracks deep, all remixes of other artists including local - Greg Enemy. Most, or maybe half of the tracks in this zip file, I've heard already. So...
Local freestyle/battle rap czar (no pun intended), Toon, who is promoting this show pretty heavy, says that the MC battle portion of this event will not unfold how a traditional battle would. He says it will be a "Call Out" style battle, with no brackets. It will be "last...
We don't know much about this guy yet, but we do know that he's got some really, really tight instrumental beats up on his myspace page. I met him a few nights ago up at James Christos' recording studio off Troost. Mr. Bounce is looking to network with local hip hop and...
