Underground Fossils was an indie rap focused blog run by myself (Dimxsk) and by Trylemma, who passed August 3rd, 2024 from liver failure of unknown origin at the age of 34. We mostly posted week or twice weekly, the bulk of which were rare rips we made, found on old blogs, he acquired through his insanely broad connection to the scene, etc. We did all we could to make sure we didn't post stuff that (1) You could still reasonably buy from the artist directly, (2) You could reasonably buy secondhand for cheap, (3) You could download easily elsewhere, (4) The artist(s) asked us not to for any reason. Being involved in this blog was some of the most fun I ever had, even if at times it was time consuming, challenging or intimidating (having a readership). It was the product of one of the best friendships I've ever had. If I could say one last thing, it's to encourage all of you: if you have the time and desire, make your own UGF. Find a friend who loves this shit like you do and build it together. It will bring you incredible joy, enhance your connection to this amazing community, and change your life in unexpected and exciting ways. I know it did mine. Love you all!

New Music Round-up

 


Hey UGF party peeps - hope the holidays are treating you well. Things are likely to get loosey on my part as we near the end of the year. In the meantime, here's some recent releases you might want to peep!

Starting down south, The Visionaries finally reunited voltron and dropped their fifth album appropriately entitled, "V." Hiero-head A-Plus dropped another one with The Architect with "Blvck Switzerlvnd." Gurp City and Rec League fans will enjoy the new Bigg Tae album, "Thanks for the Ryde." Likewise, Grand Invincible has returned with "Demolition Strictly." Finally, Def-I dropped new EP "DRZLTN" backed by Smoke of OD! 

Moving to the Northwest, we got another new album from Nickels Hawkeye entitled "All the Things." Claud Six (of Jellyfish Brigade) dropped EP "Hoodie Season." Finally, Rafael Vigilantics dropped a moody folky project in "Blue River, Grey Sky."

Finally, let's move to Canada where Factor dropped his latest "Eastlake," Kay the Aquanaut dropped new album "Ancient Fish from the Northwest," and People of the Sun (the latest group from MC Infored) dropped the live debut "Last Day of Summer." Oh yeah, overseas Zoen dropped a new instrumental project you should check called "Wonderful Times"!
