Hood Internet

The Mixtape Volume Four - The Hood Internet

For those of you who are unaware, The Hood Internet is made up of a couple of DJs who take Rap, Hip-Hop and R&B songs and mix them with Indie-Pop/Rock and Alternative music. The resulting sound is rather unique and offers something different to your musical palette. The tracks really speak for themselves and with over thirty of them, its hard to just pick out one. I found this group by accident and was enchanted by their personal approach in terms of taking two rather different genres and blending them to almost invent a new sound. Though this is their fourth mixtape, they have over four hundred tracks and over seven hundred artists mixed together. Pretty amazing when you think about it, but the important part is listening to it. I've used the Hood Internet's mixtapes to discover several new artists both in Hip-Hop and in Indie music, and you could do the same. In short, enjoy a new musical experience and check out the rest of their stuff if you liked it.
