Originally we thought of adding the usual guest reviewer to the
Levelheaded section but instead we’d like to try something
a little different. Every so often we will feature a guest artist
and their themed tape for the section. Now keep in mind, it’s
not a real tape but more of a dream list they’ve created before
putting a tape together. Now it’s up to you to make hunt down
the tracks!

If you've been following us since early on, you know we love Cex
and featured an interview with him a while back. When the idea for
this section came about, the first person that came to mind was
Cex and he seemed to think that he was perfect for it as well. His
last album featured some freaky skittish beats, guitars, skits but
sadly little Cex on the mic. Fans of the twenty year old artist
from Baltimore (who is already releasing his fifth album) have been
checking out Cex live and sometimes in his boxers. Instead of taking
the secret-laptop-idm-whatamidoingupthere persona like some cohorts,
Cex shows to hit go on his laptop, grab a mic and jump to the front
of the stage for some M.C. freestyle action. Now on, 'Tall, Dark
& Handcuffed' Cex creates the hip-hop record he's been wanting
to do without any of the cliches and plenty of rhymes about a life
that the rest of us can relate with. Elementary school, girls, talkin'
shit, 7-11, and daily observations are all given the Cex treatment
and you'll be amazed how different it is from the last record. Rjyan
Cexwell is going to be freaking us out for many many years...now
his mixtape.

And now we present Mat Ducasse a.k.a. Matty Skylab! Matty’s
previous credits include taking a lot of L.S.D. and creating his
early tracks before hooking up with Howie B and TKO to record the
incredible 1994 release, Skylab #1. Since then he released his second
album, has been touring with Tim ‘Love’ Lee and Thomas
"The Mammal" Bullock as the DJ team Skylab Sound Systems.
In addition to his recent 7” release for Tummy Touch’s
‘Touch Tones’ label, Matty (according to his bio) is working
on an ‘ biography’ "Electronic Elvis" with Paul
Fryer, collaborating with some guy named Wildcat Will as The Electric
Moccasins of Doom, a lady named Crazy Girl, writing tunes with Sausage
and rocking out with The Girls!! Watch Out! Last we heard, Tim ‘Love’
Lee mentioned Matty was M.I.A. in the UK somewhere! Have you seen
him?
