Bandcamp is doing that good shit again! Their cut is going to the NAACP Legal Defense Fund today and a lot of bands are donating to worthy causes, too! Open thy pockets and thy ears! https://thequietus.com/articles/28367-buy-music-tq-writers-bandcamp-tips-june-2020
This one from March is chock full of great stuff, too: https://thequietus.com/articles/27996-quietus-writers-bandcamp-tips-dale-cornish-dj-diaki-moma-ready-lyra-pramuk-w00dy-sloth-racket
OK, so obviously based on those features, I'm very down with Equiknoxx and Dale Cornish, but also featured were recent Metal Preyers and Villaelvin records, which I can't recommend highly enough. Top tier!
Really, you can't go wrong with anything Nyege Nyege Tapes (1) & Hakuna Kulala put out (2). The new HHY &The Macumbas tape is a real polyrhythmic mind-melter (3).

And Nyege Nyege expats Nihiloxica just dropped their stunningly tumultuous debut LP on Crammed Discs (4), while Hakuna Kulala MVP MC Yallah pops up on DJ Die Soon's gnarly Kappa Slap (5), another 2020 highlight.

Here's my big recco thread from earlier in June: https://twitter.com/DHALLLLC/status/1268908578016055297
And the one from May: https://twitter.com/DHALLLLC/status/1256213316424392704
Probably worth noting that one or two of the records in those threads were only available on those particular fee waiver days and may no longer be available.
If anything that seems super noteworthy pops up as today's Juneteenth celebration rolls along, I'll post it in this thread. If there are any releases you want to share with the tens of people that will see this, feel free to reply!
First up is DeForrest Brown Jr.'s ultra powerful Speaker Music sneak attack, Black Nationalist Sonic Weaponry, which also comes with a super sick PDF booklet of essays and poetry by Black thinkers.

Label proceeds from this one go to BEAM & M4BL.
