Newest Industry Presents: Flatbasset Radio - Episode #7 (2012 Song Of The Day Countdown!)

There's no way to forget it all...

Well hello again, music fans! Welcome back to Flatbasset Radio!

December is list making time and we're no exception. This week's podcast is a special one as TCDroogsma counts down his 15 favorite tracks given away by The Current via their Song Of The Day podcast!

As well as running ten minutes longer than he was allowed, TCDroogsma struggles to title his own podcast, loses all credibility with the youth of the Twin Cities, bases his top choice on his own unique life situation, and explains exactly why it is that he's obsessed with the Song Of The Day podcast even though he kind of hates it.

If you somehow want even more TCDroogsma he can be found on Twitter (@TCDroogsma) or rambling on and on over at Flatbasset, his personal blog. We're currently taking bets as to how deeply into 2013 he can make it without shaving.

Newest Industry Presents: Flatbasset - P.O.S. (All In A Day's Work MegaMixx)

We are seriously taking the city...

Hello again, Twin Cities hip-hop fans!

It's been a great year for Twin Cities hip-hop. Brother Ali, MaLLy, I Self Devine, Big Quarters, Mike Mictlan... So much good music came out of the cities that it's almost unfair.

Today, though, we're here to celebrate the impending release of P.O.S.'s We Don't Even Live Here, which will hit the streets this coming Monday. This will be P.O.S.'s fourth solo album and, we're betting, will be high on the “Best Of” lists at the end of the year.

More to the point, to celebrate the release we asked our resident hip-hop junkie TCDroogsma to put together a little something for us. He came back with an hour long Flatbasset mix packed with P.O.S. jams.

As you can see, click the download tab below to download the free mix. Of course we'd like to take a moment to point out that, obviously, we do not own any of the music contained in the mix. We asked TCDroogsma to put it together as a celebration and that's just what he did. So please don't sue us. We don't have any money anyway.

TCDroogsma, any thoughts?

Y'know, I've been a Doomtree fans for a minute now and I thought it would be fun to put together a nice run of tracks that P.O.S. has been featured on rather than a typical “best of” type of thing.

If you remember, back when Never Better came out Fifth Element released a couple of bonus albums called Meat Tape and Meat Tape 2 that featured a bunch of harder to find stuff and stuff that, evidently, P.O.S. was digging at the time. That was kind of my plan with this mix. Think of it as Meat Tape 3 or P.O.S. & Friends Rappity Rap Party or I Already Know All These Songs.

It should be noted, of course, that I am not a DJ. If the fades and blends and such aren't up to par, that's why. Don't think of this mix as some chopped up, bangin' DJ mix (though, if someone did that with a bunch of P.O.S. guest spots I'm sure it would kill), think of this more like the best hour of radio that would never get played on the radio.

Obviously all of the tracks contain some sort of P.O.S. contribution. My apologies if I'm not giving full credit to everybody involved.

Thanks to TCDroogsma for putting the mix together for us. For more of TCDroogsma be sure to follow him on Twitter and/or Instagram or you can check out his own blog Flatbasset. He's still counting down Morrissey songs despite our best efforts. He's got problems, though. Problems.
