Y.T. Cracker – Chrono Nurga

Y.T. Cracker, one of nerdcore’s finest, released this album in 2009, and it still holds a spot on my iTunes. Thick and thoughtful lyrics mixed over top of tight beats sampling Chrono Trigger, this free album is a must-download.

Head to this tumblr post to listen to my favorite track from this album.

Maintaining his baller-status, YT includes these spare liner notes:

MC Chris & Dj CUTMAN: Remix Wars!

Nerdcore rapper MC Chris recently held a public remix competition for his new album Race Wars. I took the oppertunity to put his acapella tracks together with some of the instrumentals I had been working on for the new volume of GameChops slated for release on January 5th 2012. All the mixes are downloadable and streaming via Soundcloud.

Check out the tracks and remember to favorite, share, and post comments!

Wu Tang VS Castlevania: “Castlevania Forever”

DJ El Nino and Noccturnal bring us classic hiphop from the Wu Tang Clan mashed up with the soundtrack to the original Castlevania games. While trolling DatPiff you can find a lot of flipped video game music, but it’s a rare treat to find a concept mixtape that goes as hard as this. Check it on DatPiff.

MegaRan 10

It’s like someone casted Magic Missile on the darkness and brought to light all this awesome music today. Last for the blast (and ceraintly not least) is nerdcore hero MegaRan with a brand new album, MegaRan 10. Yes that’s right, hiphop takes on the themes from MegaMan 10. MegaRan is a hiphop hero with unparalleled skills and imagination, the mastermind behind Black Materia. Check out his new album below and pick it up on Bandcamp.
