MH-250 Antimc - It's Free, But It's Not Cheap  It's Free, But It's Not Cheap, the solo debut from Los Angeles producer Antimc, is a nine-song collection of sprawling post-rock, dancefloor filling hip-hop, and inspired electronics. The album features three MCs (Busdriver, Cadence Weapon, and Saafir), three vocalists (Anthony Anzalone of the Mean Reds, Andrew Broder of Fog, and Mark Mitchell of Clue to Kalo), and shows a vast range of production styles. Antimc is the rare producer that is just as accomplished at writing melodies, playing his own live instrumentation, and structuring a song, as he is at programming a drum machine and editing on a computer. This versatility shows as he is able to span hip-hop to hardcore to electro to post-rock and capture standout performances from each collaborator, while always focusing on creating an expertly crafted song. |

| The cool burbles of the L.A. producer's solo debut strengthen his standing as both an architect of sound and a scribe of pretty ditties. The new work feels a bit like the product of a robot savant, using anesthetic electro as if it, and not the guitar, were the standard paintbrush for sweet melody. - Download |
