Good morning.

Today we’re listening to Clutchy Hopkins, a pseudonymous instrumental producer. Thanks to Mārtiņš for the recommendation. Their 2006 album, The Life of…, is a set of hip-hop instrumentals with rich acoustic recordings. The beats remind us of MF Doom and DJ Shadow. We’re also playing 2008’s Walking Backwards, whose beats have a more mystical quality to them and occasionally feature vocals.
