Underground Fossils is run by Dimxsk and often by Trylemma, who is on a hip hop spiritual journey in the Himalayas and may not be back for a bit. Posts are every Friday, usually some quality old sh*t but sometimes promotional posts or "reviews". We do all we can to make sure we don't post stuff that (1) You can still reasonably buy from the artist directly, (2) You can reasonably buy secondhand for cheap, (3) You can download easily elsewhere, (4) The artist(s) asks us not to for any reason. Rips will include our own personal rips, old scene rips, and random web rips.

Mathias - Da Prototype-Hype Superfluous EP




I'm taking you back up north this week with an obscure 30+ minute "EP" in the form of Mathias' "Da Prototype-Hype Superfluous EP." 

Mathias is a part time Portland part time Bay Area rapper (and now aspiring actor?) who came up with the standard underground NW scene in the 90s and early 2000s. The EP is what you've come to expect from the NW in that era, slightly darker punchline heavy raps mixed with West Coast influenced deliveries. Features include My-G, Kable Roc, Shipwreck and Anaxagorus from Oldominion. 

Mathias is still making music under "Mathias The Titanium" so if you enjoy this one, check out his newer stuff. 

I remember digging in a dusty old box on the back floor in one of my favorite record shops in order to uncover this one. So enjoy!
