The homies ILL MONDO are back with another studio album filled with a nice slew of upbeat & funky tracks that get your head bobbing immediately and make you wanna move. Here’s the official word from them…

Ill Mondo – De Novo is a psychedelic exploration of epic proportions. Recorded on classic, vintage equipment in authentic 70′s style, Ill Mondo employed dozens of studio musicians and a variety of vocalists to complete the album. The recordings started with a Kraut-rock influenced studio jam session, and the sessions were edited down before extensive overdubbing; Mellotron flutes and strings blend with live horn and string sections, latin percussion accents against the funky drums and a full choir section complements the space echo guitars.

This album is too frickin good to be free but for you lucky cheap bastards, it’s a free download over at CIRCLE INTO SQUARE >>

Sorry for the radio silence folks. I’ve actually been drawing a lot more, finally painting a little bit too and designing my ass of for Finally Hip. In the middle of lookbook stuff and getting ready for some promo and marketing. Things are definitely in the works, so please be patient while my brain slowly melts away. =)

Ill Mondo is back with a follow up to their first mixtape “Gentlemen Prefer Blunts”. Instead of horribly attempting to describe it myself, I’ll let you read what they had to say about it….

The second in a series of free mixtapes, “Gentlemen Prefer Blunts (Pt 2)” continues DJ Screw’s tradition of slow, “chopped and screwed” music. The mix consists entirely of records pressed at 45 rpm played back at a slow, head-nodding 33 1/3. There are still funky classics like Dennis Coffey’s Scorpio, but also heavily features modern psychedelic rock like Dungen and Tame Impala. Ill Mondo takes the slow music concept and runs it past genre-barriers, mixing soul classics like Strawberry Letter 23 next to modern Chillwave titans Washed Out. Gentlemen Prefer Blunts (Pt 2) breathes life into old classics, and presents modern psychedelic music in a completely new light.
