I first came across Swiff D way back when on U-N-I’s 2007 release Fried Chicken and Watermelon. Swiff threw down on the “somebody gonna get pregnant”-esque track Knock on Wood. It banged (zing!). Fast forward a year, and Swiff was in the finals of the Red Bull Big Tune, crushing much of the competition.
Dude’s stayed busy since then, popping up on tracklistings from most of the L.A. young guns that are making So Cal bubble, including Pac Div, Blu, and yes, more U-N-I. Swiff just dropped his latest endeavor – the 15 track instrumental compilation Basic Cable. It’s a solid mix of boom bap head nodders, and some of that L.A. fresh the kids are digging so much. But no jerking. No. Definitely not.
Download and enjoy!
