The Associated Minds boys are canny lads. Whilst there has been something of a Hip-hop drought of late they have been stock piling some serious tunes to unleash on us all. I say this with a certain amount of guess work, a touch of faith and the slightest bit of actual knowledge. You see they've been keeping their cards closer to their chest than Nicole Kidman playing Strip Poker. We keep catching glimpses, although it might not be wise to use any kind of nipple analogy when referring to some of their rappers.
The latest snippet to sneak out of the stable is this Metabeats produced crunked up funk bumper. The Lollipop Lady’s Favourite is the first single from Willo Wispa’s eagerly anticipated Wot’s Willo On!?! album and features our favourite jazzy Welsh starlet in the making Ruby Samba.
The tune is a while heap of fun and we can't wait for the video which looks like it's going to be triple jokes galore if this 'Making of' is anything to go by...
Our good friend, DJ Moneyshot, shows no sign of letting off the pressure as he supplies us with another exclusive dope track. This time he's upped the ante of mid nineties Wu-Banger, C.R.E.A.M, with the original piano lick sample, washes of sub and some neck snap uptempo breaks. He's dubbed it 'The Travesty Remix' 'cos as he says himself, "It's a bloody travesty that people mess with the classics, but it's gotta be done."
Plus if you want to hear the track in full context, check his latest show for Solid Steel Radio, which shows us that the best way up is definitely sideways.

Believe it or not, we here at Chrome Kids are not built 100% perfect, so that despite best intentions, some of the tracks we may have decided to blog get lost amidst a pile of work, rest and playing the next couple of hundred tunes to come through that day. This happened some time ago with tracks from the Purple Bird label whom we found by chance then hit up for some music, only for it to be buried til this morning when this Dead Geoff & Mister Thumbs track popped up randomly on our iTunes. It's great, so here it is... finally.
Check the Purple Bird Musicsite for full download of the EP and some of their other artists. Plus there's some damn fine Glitch hop worth listening to on their Soundcloud page, such as this one...
