Contest: Packages of Blindspot’s ‘Apart’ and ‘Hugs & Scissors’ (+ Exclusive MP3)

Producer Dot is on a constant search for the essence of a sound that’s tearing down the boundaries of the average. Wherever his sound takes you next, there’s always the inevitable feeling of beauty around. Partner-in-crime Mr. Feat always had a strong connection to one of the deepest and most constant of all forces on earth: rhythm. This is definitely mirrored in the fast-talking, critical and personal rhymestyle he’s spitting today.

After Hugs & Scissors and the free EP A Fine Mess, this week German duo Blindspot is back with the release of the 16-track album Apart. Inspired by the likes of Qwel, Sole, Sage Francis, Slug (of Atmosphere), Aesop Rock and Illogic, Blindspot brings fresh hip hop with a subtle dark touch. We give away three packages of ‘Apart’ and ‘Hugs & Scissors’ CDs.
