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: $iMpLe - 3IMPLE

 


New, out of the blue, EP drop from one of the Sandpeople's more elusive members, $imple (aka Thndrthf) - "3IMPLE." I've only listened to this one once thus far, but it's actually the best rapping I've ever heard from $imple - great schemes, flows, and concepts. The mixing and beats are a bit shaky at times, but we're used to that by now in indie rap now, right? Apparently he's working on a full LP now, so keep an eye out for that! 

Peep 3IMPLE HERE
