Jake and Bake Beats - La Planète Sauvage Tape (2017)

 

Artist: Jake and Bake Beats (currently known as Jabbu)
Album: La Planète Sauvage Tape
Location: Bensalem, USA
Genres: Lo-Fi Hip Hop, Library Music
Year Released: 2017-06-14
Format(s) Released: Bandcamp

Explanation: 

Back in 2017 I listened to a lot of albums. I used to have a list on my page with a brief review of them all but that's since been deleted. Anyway, one of the many tapes I listened to then was this one by Jake and Bake Beats. He's now known as Jabbu but other than that I don't know anything about him. I remember the tape being adequate but never looked deeper into his work. 

And I really didn't think about this until a friend going through my ratings asked if I had a copy since Jabbu deleted all his old work. I didn't but after some work between him and another person I know they managed to recover this tape. And here we are today. 

It's a lo-fi hip hop beat tape that samples the cult-classic French movie Fantastic Planet. Never seen it myself though I believe it was the cover art from the movie that drew me to this release. 

Reasons for Disappearance: 

At some point Jabbu decided to change his name and erase all his old work. It's a tale as old as time. Since then he took this beat tape down and (to my knowledge) hasn't referenced it since then. I haven't listened to Jabbu's post-2017 work but I believe these beats are probably present on some tape he released after. Regardless here they are presented below for your enjoyment.

Rap Bastard / DJ Dog Dick - Split (2004)

  Artist: Rap Bastard / DJ Dog Dick Album: Split Location: Baltimore, USA / Genres: Abstract Hip Hop, Sound Collage, Noise Year Released: 2004 Date Re-Found / Posted: 2023-08-?? (recovered by tib) Format(s) Released: Cassette Explanation: I'll admit I know very little about both artists. DJ Dog Dick, real name Max Eisenberg is a noise artist who I mostly know about from a few collabs with rapper Lil Ugly Mane. 'Rap Bastard', aka HZMT I know actually nothing of. When I added this release to my list is was mainly to illustrate just how many lost releases there is for Eisenberg. He released most of his stuff cassette only, and even though he was ahead of the curb, never got much attention cause of that. As I was writing this, I looked into HZMT / Rap Bastard / Anthony Miller and damn does he have a lot of missing and undocumented releases. He ran his own label and released almost everything exclusively on cassette. A true indie artist. Both artists really have large catalogues...

The Convulsions of Creation - Moonba Is Here (1995)

  Artist: The Convulsions of Creation [Chris Shepard & Mike Mangino] Album: Moonba Is Here Location: Piscataway, USA Genres: Cassette Underground, Sound Collage, Drone, Noise Year Released: 1995-xx-xx Format(s) Released: Cassette Explanation: Atlas King is a label I have been tracking for years now. Home to the noise duo, Smersh it was active in the Cassette Underground releasing all sorts of weird tapes. This is one of them. Almost all the acts on Atlas King were just akas of Smersh but unlike the duo, the non-Smersh releases experimented with electronic, noise and other genres. The Convulsions of Creation is one such project, a side-thing by Smersh messing more with drone and sound collage. This release is okay. I'm sure someone will enjoy it more. When it comes to noise I don't like ear-splitting sounds. The first track has a few. It's this dissonant, vaguely "Eastern" sounding drone with rattles and some high-pitched sounds. The second and third track are ...

305 808 & N0ϟPΔ☾ƎΔPƎ - Sons of God (2013)

  Artist: 305 808 & N0ϟPΔ☾ƎΔPƎ Album: Sons of God: The Most Outer Place Location: Miami, USA Genres: Witch House Rap, Witch House, Trillwave Year Released: 2013 Format(s) Released: Bandcamp Explanation: I'll admit. This is not my cup of tea. Not only do I know very little about these artists I know even less of who they collaborated with. I only know of this from a RYM list I saw where someone mentioned they were looking for this album. All I know about NoSpaceApe is that he was an artist active in the Witch House Rap scene that existed in the early 2010s. The one Black Kray is often considered the founder of. I know absolutely nothing of 305 808. I can't find any info either. This is a Witch House Rap album, with lots of loud distortion, slurred and incomprehensible lyrics and edgy and dark song titles and sounds. In theory I should like it but as I wrote, it's just not for me. I could just write a whole review on how much I didn't like it but ehn. I don't have...
