The Mixtape:

Earlier this month, producers Stu Bangas & Vanderslice announced their new collaborative album, Diggaz With Attitude. The album, being released August 28th via Man Bites Dog Records, will include features from Ill Bill, Vinnie Paz, Esoteric, Celph Titled, Blaq Poet, and just the other week, Stu & Vander released the video for the album's lead single, "The Gusto" which features Apathy, The Alchemist, Evidence, and Roc Marciano.

Today, Stu Bangas & Vanderslice, in conjunction with 2dopeboyz, are excited to give fans a pre-album mixtape, Brutal Blends. The mixtape, which includes a number of previously released tracks, in addition to a handful of blends courtesy of Dusty Gems, also features a collection of exclusive tracks, with features coming from Planet Asia, Wais P, Ill Bill, Vast Aire, Action Bronson, and more.

The tape was put together by Stu Bangas, who wanted to use the tape as a tool to point new fans back to some of the producers' previous work. "We wanted to release some songs we had produced that were under the radar," explains Stu Bangas, while Vander notes that it was actually the work of Dusty Gems that sparked the initial idea for the tape. "I saw that Dusty Gems was doing blends with beats that Stu and I had already released," he recalls. "From there, Dusty and Stu built the idea, and when they brought it to me, I thought it was interesting – something different."

The Background:

Lurking in the dark shadows, with the things that creep in the night, the Brutal Music team of Stu Bangas & Vanderslice work to create their musical madness. Vanderslice, who has long since been a "digger" for the stars and Stu Bangas, who has been a big part Boston's recently burgeoning hip-hop scene, first came together to produce the now-acclaimed Blaq Poet Society, an album with Screwball MC Blaq Poet. In the process, the production duo joined forces with indie label Man Bites Dog Records, and are now prepping their latest project, Diggaz With Attitude, or D.W.A. for short. Individually, Stu Bangas & Vanderslice have produced for a who's-who of underground favorites, a list that includes Sean Price, Apathy, Vinnie Paz, Ill Bill, Copywrite, and Heltah Skeltah, among others. For D.W.A., Stu & Vanderslice enlisted a number of those same artists, in addition to Roc Marciano, The Alchemist, Evidence, and more. Diggaz With Attitude will be released August 28, 2012 via Man Bites Dog Records.
