What you may need to know
01. Decent Irish hip-hop with an avant-garde tinge from young, Cork-based producer SCOUNDRELL.
02. One of a multitude of projects emerging from one of an innovative and prolific group of young musicians/meme-peddlers in Cork City, SCOUNDRELL takes grime and hip-hop and puts them through some very odd filters.
03. Streaming above in its entirety is Black Box Renaissance, a collection of demos and other bits assembled from quick-and-dirty productions from the past few weeks.
04. Also available is the Lithic EP, a rather more concise exercise in darker electronics.
Verdict: A mad confab of low-key beats and experimentation, well worth the trip for anyone so inclined.
