beats for breakfast

hello. This blog will be a resource for the best in hip hop beats, electronica, and other miscellaneously excellent music that I come across, focusing on (but not limited to) the music scene in Austin. I will hopefully soon have a specialty show on KVRX, UT Austin's student radio, which will coincide with the blog.

To start here's a link to my friend & Ableton co-conspirator Mark Rubin, AKA Crazy Fingers' debut EP. Mixing bwomptastic glitch-hop with psychedelic soundscapes, his tunes will rock you into the 4th dimension and beyond. Stream & download for free below!
