XLR8R Podcast: Meanest Man Contest
Meanest Man Contest might be known for making hip-hop and leftfield electronic music, but when we approached the duo and asked them to curate the next installment of the XLR8R Podcast, they gave us a pleasantly surprising mix that goes above and beyond the word “eclectic.”
How eclectic? Well, there’s one of the duo’s own tracks, remixed by producer Touane. Then comes leftfield hip-hop from DOOM and Boom Bip, old-school rock tunes from cult bands like The Idle Race and The Wirtschaftswunder, lots of soul from Tim Maia, and slightly country flavored jam by Plug Research artist Samamidon.

XLR8R premieres a new video from L.A.’s wackiest beatmaker, Daedelus. “L.A. Nocturn” is from his recent contribution to the new Friends of Friends label, and the video for this song arrives in a flurry of bright colors and costumed characters.
XLR8R TV: Andrew Jeffrey Wright
Philadelphia-based artist Andrew Jeffrey Wright doesn’t confine his humor and obsessions to one medium. Here, the painter, zine maker, illustrator, t-shirt designer, and video director shows us around the co-operatively run Space 1026 studios and gallery, explains his signature haircut, talks about Christian upbringing, and why poop jokes just come to him naturally.
Inbox: Dntel
Sure, we’re always curious to know about an artist’s upcoming release, most recent tour, or arsenal of analog gear, but XLR8R’s also got a curiosity for quirk. In less than two weeks, Jimmy Tamborello, under his Dntel guise, will release a three-CD set of remastered tracks he’s entitled Early Works for Me if it Works for You II. He took a little time to write in about the release, his love of hoodies, and why one should never purchase an electronic trash can.
Feature: Soul-Junk
Jazz enthusiast, commercial-jingle producer, and former high-school teacher Glen Galaxy’s avant-garde gospel gets even stranger.
