Dark Time Sunshine – Vessel (CD) (2010) (FLAC + 320 kbps)
Seattle mainstay Onry Ozzborn has spent the last five years on Rhymesayers Entertainment putting out underground hip-hop classics such as Grayskul’s Bloody Radio, touring and collaborating with everyone from Aesop Rock to Atmosphere. Now, he has started a new group with Chicago producer Zavala called Dark Time Sunshine. Some say the collaboration sounds like a “Psychedelic Gang Starr” others refer to the “slight bit of Company Flow twirling in the waters beneath them” – whatever it may be – it’s some of the most exciting new hip-hop to hit ears in a long time. Under the new pseudonym of Cape Cowen, Onry spits abstract anthems while Zavala’s boom-bap psych-rock production swirls, twists and bangs beneath.
The duo met a couple of years ago in Portland, OR, at a professional Dart competition where Zavala was crowned victor and won a life-time supply of TapouT attire, but that’s neither here nor there – although it’s still a proud moment in DTS history. Both interested in hip-hop, punk, electronics, and Lady Gaga. The two started to formulate a genre of music some might call Snob Rap, Dark Pop or Theatrical Laser Blur. Thus, the group Dark Time Sunshine was born. After implementing themselves relevant with the free album BELIEVEYOUME in November 2009, the duo now sets sail to bring forth their official debut release, Vessel.
The album features appearances by Aesop Rock, P.O.S., Solillaquists of Sound, Qwel, Ceschi Ramos, Oldominion, Champagne Champagne, an array of great female vocalists such as Reva Devito, Poeina Suddurth, Kaitlyn Leathers, and more. /circleintosquare.com/
