You open your eyes. Something is different. You wonder “where am I?” You’re close, but the real question is, “when are you?” Inexplicably you find yourself in 1970’s New York City. You know even before you’ve stepped outside. The vibe. Something in the air is a little… analogue. Next thing you know, you’re walking down a rain-slicked borough side street, having deep existential conversations and moments of revelation. And best of all? You’ve got the perfect soundtrack to ponder the human condition in an era better suited to both pondering and being conditionally human.
That album is this album. Antinomian Pandemonium. The latest creation from Hip-Hop Innovators and Luminaries MC Paul Barman and Kenny Segal.
These aren’t just visionaries and pillars of Boundary-Pushing-Rap™. Sure they’re responsible for genre expanding albums (It’s Very Stimulating, Paullelujah) and (Hiding Places by billy woods, Casual Horns, Dog by Jefferson Park Boys). They’re also two guys who’ve LIVED LIVES. “What does that mean?” Well… For one… Paul is cited first for the word “vajayjay’ by the Oxford English Dictionary. For another, Kenny beat Joey Santiago (yes THAT Joey Santiago from The Pixies) at Guitar Hero.
Let’s stay focused on the topic at hand. You probably want to know, “what does the album sound like?” Kenny says the music’s “just me and Paul being me and Paul.” What does the album feel like? It feels like riding a train that emerges from underground as a sky tram to our mountaintop dream school. It feels like life in a richer, less homogenized version of the greatest city on the planet, exploring some of the strange and wonderful facets of the human experience. You’re a little freaked out about the time travel stuff. Totally understandable. It’s only natural to feel some displacement when you’ve slipped several decades the wrong direction up the Universal-Timestream™.
Luckily you’ve got an album that lives outside of linear time to keep you company. So you don’t have to feel so alone.
Wherever you are, whenever you go, you’ll always have Antinomian Pandemonium to remind you that we’re all a little out of place… a little out of time… but that can end up feeling just right. --- Luke H. Simmons

Q & Rhett spark things up with the 1st single, Cypha Up, a beat and bar driven track complete with pure flyness with a touch of 5% wisdom. Rhett’s boom bap track has a swing that’ll have you noddin’ the eff out with that ugly/satisfied look on your face.
The significance of the album title, the QR Code is that Q-Unique and Rhettmatic have lived by a code in hip hop of pure intent, and being true to themselves and to their audience.

This album is complete with some amazing collaborations, including LMNO from the Visionaries, Esoteric from Czarface, Mecca and Sonny Sandoval from the band P.O.D.

3rd Party Ops in short, are operations outside of the established order. King Author is painting a dystopian rebel visual, without sacrificing any of the craftsmanship he is known for. The soundtrack ranges from traditional blue collar hip hop to cinematic movie like scores of espionage. There is a wide spectrum of sounds present through out the project, however they are still cohesive.

Epic "Heater In My Truck II" [ALBUM]
The OG of prairie folk rap returns with Heater In My Truck II, an album that is a sequel in both name and spirit to his vinyl-only album from 2003. Epic proves here that he is a master at manifesting the mundane through music, touching on such exciting topics as his “Old Shit out in the Garage”, putting a “Survey in a Box”, and the beautiful “Wallpaper”, all done with a mix of earnest honesty and humble humour. He also honours the roots of hip hop with songs like “Lethal Test Pressings” and “Cassettes”, along with plenty of references to hip hop history matched in number only by his references to Canadiana. You can tell these are two things close to his heart. Unlike his last two albums, Heater In My Truck II taps the talents of multiple producers, such as Moka Only, Moves, Maki, Aries, Gods.& Nmbrs, and more, but the album is purposefully curated to create a jazzy, chill vibe with enough upbeat bops to get the toes tapping along with the head nodding. Recorded alongside the darker, heavier, and more experimental A library called Calder, Heater II is more emo folk rap than that album or even Nassau Manor. And to provide a little more vocal variety, Epic calls on the lyrical prowess of his friends Noah23, Emprime, Inky, Aries, and newcomer 33, who all add their own unique touch to the proceedings. Yet another choice addition to the legacy of late-era Epic.
