These double-cassette mix tapes from DL and DJ Crossphader are still hella niche, but who can't appreciate some dope indie backpack hip-hop shit from 2000? lol. They kicked the year off strong with The Basement Experience... the double mix features a ton of joints from artists like Common, Ran Reed, Reflection Eternal, De La Soul, Large Professor, Mass Influence, Dilated Peoples, Slum Village, L-Fudge, Freddie Foxxx, Black Thought, A.G., Cella Dwellas, Rascalz, Jigmastas, Mr. Complex, The Unspoken Heard, Mad Skillz, Gauge, I.G. Off & Hazardous, Louis Logic, Pharoahe Monch, Masta Ace, Screwball, B-1, Lone Catalysts and more. Dig into the archives for more, and listen below...
