The homie Optiks comes through today with a beat tape he has been crafting for a little while now. Coming in at only 12 minutes, this mix isn’t anything crazy, but it gives you an idea of what the man is working with. Along with this tape, you can expect to see more Optiks in the near future, on the emcee and instrumental tip. Shouts to Blitz the Ambassador on the drops here. And of course you are aware of the masterpiece these two dropped not too long ago in Stereotype. If you have slept on that, I urge you to wake yourself up and cop immediately!

Peep the liner notes and additional artwork after the jump…

Last week we hit you with “Let’s Go” by IMAKEMADBEATS and Emilio Rojas off the forthcoming The Ozone, which showcases the underground hip hop scene of Orlando, FL and is hitting the interwebs October 20. Here’s one more treat to hold you over:

Swamburger is ¼ of Anti-/Epitaph group Solillaquists of Sound. Optiks is the 2008 Scribble Jam Producer Battle Champion who recently produced the bulk of Blitz the Ambassador’s widely-acclaimed Stereotype. “Woe Is Not Me” is the ridiculously dope result of their collaboration.

If you don’t have this song stuck in your head for weeks, we’ll give you a free download of The Ozone on October 20. And if you do? Then you’ll probably still want to download the mixtape for free when it drops on October 20. Enjoy…
