Mad-Hop

At the end of the first year on our own, Mad-Hop is proud to present our forth compilation with the release date set for the end of December! For this edition, we joined forces with all our favorite labels that set the standard in the futuristic sounds we love so much. We feel that supporting them is as important as supporting the beatmakers and producers we have mentioned so far. To spread the love even further we have a special Mad-Graffiti street video production ready for you. Keep your eyes on our facebook wall so you won’t miss the video release and be sure to stay up to date with the developing electronic / glitch-hop / mad-hop scene. We hope you’ll enjoy this free compilation. Respect to everyone who supports us by spreading the word and reposting our links.
Keep it mAd!!
