One of Potholes’ favorite groups hit us up to exclusively drop their latest project and we would have been insane not to participate. Animate Objects have been steadily killing it in the Chicago scene for several years with successful albums and EPs alike. We loved their last project, Dubs Grunts & Things, so much so that we recruited them to remix one of their cuts for our Transmitting Live Vol. 1 release.

Thankfully, our relationship didn’t end there.

This project, Danya and the Fail Present: The Shit, is actually the group’s first mixtape. And it’s filled with 16 tracks of that dope hip-hop we have come to expect from Animate Objects. Below you will find a widget to stream and/or download Danya and the Fail Present: The Shit, a 16-track prelude of sorts to Animate Objects’ upcoming remix EP and full-length album. They are also touring the country and Europe right now to support the troops so be sure to check out a show if they come to your city. The tour dates are listed here.

August 25th is finally here. It’s the moment that we have all been waiting for! Today, we officially release Transmitting Live Volume One, a collection of 29 exclusive and unreleased tracks mixed by DJ Traumatix. This project spotlights some of the finest underground hip-hop acts from all over the globe that we have had the pleasure of working with.

None of this would have been possible without you, the readers. As such, it’s only right to give back and show thanks for the successful launching of our blog with this fantastic medley of hip-hop like this? And, best of all, this is just the beginning of many excellent, exclusive projects to come.
