The Muddy Mudskippers

The Muddy Mudskippers (the OXide VENture) was what happened when you mixed two beatmakers (Sean Tre & Matty Melks) that are lifelong friends with one of the most prolific turntabalists in the 805 area of Southern California (Spinobi). The end result ended up being over 45 minutes of beat and scratch madness and a sample list that approaches almost a thousand sources.
The Muddy Mudskippers was a concept album; the concept being "stay muddy". What was meant by that is this - in a time when virtually any musician can own professional studio grade equipment, sometimes people get too caught up with having flawless sound quality and forget about cutting loose and rocking out. The Muddy Mudskippers is a sonic journey into the mud, the dirt, grimy vinyl and 8 bit samples, dusty thrift store crate digs and old movie dialog. The Mudskippers is almost punk rock in it's approach. Download here and bump for free, and please, STAY MUDDY!!!!!
