So unknown to the world it seems, that Ill Type only has one decent picture on the internet and it’s of him in this ridonkulous raccoon bandana t-shirt atrocity above.
Nevertheless, he knows how to fit two tracks together better than the East Japan Railway Company, and all with a sort of hilarious non-sequitur attitude about how he describes his himself and his music. His souncloud bio sounds like something out of Dr Seuss, and his music is to the best of my description a musical personification of a drunk fat man crip walking on a small rowing boat. Maybe that’s the beauty of it – his music is indescribable.
Check out his Warm Weather mix below, a perfect example of ‘Wonky Ghetto Funk Cocaine Disco’, as well as his take on a well known remix of Daft Punk‘s High Life. Edit: If the player doesn’t work, it’s because the file is too funky to stream, so just download that bad boy from the link provided.
“…his eyes trace back down to the spinning wax in front of him, and it is time. Time to scratch those records like a mother fucker.”
