‘Summer of 808′ is perhaps, stylistically, a return to the days of Brandon Draper’s youth. Desiring to recapture the nostalgic sounds of the 80’s as well as some of the early days of hip hop, Brandon crafted a completely analogue “808 Beat Tape” that is perfect for these scorching middle-of-the-US summers, whether you’re road tripping, on the water, or just flat out sweating on the asphalt. You’ll find a variety of influences on this album, everything from lofi production and experimental to world music and boom bap. Out now on Cult Love Sound Tapes.
