With Bandana set for an imminent arrival, Madlib is once again dominating the world’s collective beat consciousness. And while we’ll have to wait a bit longer for the producer’s highly-anticipated sequel to the 2014 collaborative masterpiece with Freddie Gibbs, Rappamelo has gathered a fresh batch of rarities for his latest compilation of Madlib’s expansive catalog.
This morning, he released Beat Konducta in Bitonto, a 30-minute jaunt through the producer’s Italian library-sourced suites. It follows similar big haul mixes released over the last year and change, including Shades of Cisternino, Beat Konducta Around Cozze, Beat Konducta in Bari, and more.
Though it remains without an official landing date, Bandana has already seen the release of two singles, “Flat Tummy Tea” and the album’s title track. He also contributed a track to the recently-released Gangster Music Vol 1. compilation.
