Al Lover - Distorted Reverberations (of Reverberating Distortion)


Al Lover is a producer from San Francisco. Over the last few years he has gained much notoriety for his melding of garage and psychedelic rock into spacey boom bap style hip hop instru-mentals. Combining crunchy drums, shaky percussion, chopped samples from genres unexplored by most producers, and the use of multiple effect pedals, Al Lover has created a sound all his own.


This remix album isn't exact new or even on vinyl (unfortunately) but it contains some killer remixed garage rock tunes that have a hip-hop vibe to them. Besides this album Al Lover has created some other mention-able mix tapes. For example, a remix album of bands from the Woodsist Record label (Link), and a compilation mix of the attending bands of Austin Psych Festival 2012 (Link).

His bandcamp is here. It's all worth a listen. Check it out.
