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.

James P. Honey & Joel Siméus - Book of Marion (2011)



Since we're running late today, I figured I'd opt for a short post and download. Book of Marion is the vinyl only collaboration between James P. Honey & Joel Siméus. It's one of my personal favorite "abstract" albums, with haunting and melodic production backing dreamy spoken word-esque poems by James.

This album is available for free download from his Bandcamp (and luckily he describes it in more detail than I ever could, seems to be really proud of it...), but each side cuts off about two minutes from the end, so you wind up missing a bit of the last track of each side. This complete version has the tracks split and labeled, in 320 kbps (made by yours truly).

Also, after thinking it over, Trylemma and I have decided that the Wednesday Review / Friday Download schedule is difficult to maintain. New releases ebb and flow, and time constraints can make putting together a thoughtful and worthy tribute to the artists we love every Wednesday difficult at times. So expect more downloads on Wednesdays, although we will still be doing reviews and other special features whenever possible. Peace!
