DJ Haul & Mason
Warning. Before I launch into today's post let me clearly state that scissorkick is not a secretly veiled attempt on behalf of Scion to infiltrate the blogosphere and influence you all to buy their cars. Okay, now that we are clear that this is done for love, not money (if anyone from Scion is reading however...) let's get to the post. I spent the weekend at RESFEST and at any event like that you ultimately leave with a handful of promotional materials -- CDs, magazines, flyers, etc. One of the promo discs I grabbed was a mix sponsored by Scion done by DJ Haul & Mason, the 2x4 tagteam that has made a name for itself by demonstrating the winning combination of technical acuity, crate-digging prowess and an ear firmly affixed to what is happening in the underground. They are fantastic live and this mix will attest to their broad mix-tape abilities.
I am posting a series of three continuous tracks that I feel represent the spirit of what the duo do best. I'm not sure where you can get this promo CD, although Scion.com does have all the tracks available for stream (not download unfortunately). Here is some specific info about the tracks.
