Lexicon - More / Sundays
Not the most interesting one i admit, but i put it for historic value... This might be the very first Lexicon promo tape, probably around 98... Those 2 tracks never appeared on any albums or 12", there's the mention of Library Crew on the cover (an old collective build around Subtitle for what i know), and surprise, an uncredited Mr Marks himself appears on the bonus track called "Wizardy" which is really "More" with... him.
One of the Lex guy sounds a lot like LMNO too...
(PS- This guy IS actually LMNO... The tape is from 98 and about 20 of those exist. Thanks to Damien/Laitdbac and the Lexicon guys for the tip.)

Jus 1.0 - Audio Aesthetics
Jus 1.0 is a beatmaker from Hawaï, from the Lightsleepers collective I think.
He did an album back in the days with Neila as "Lady Day & The Pres", this tape is probably from the same era... Then he pretty much disappeared from the radar.
There's some interesting featuring on there, Topic from Painkillers, JunDax from Private School, and even some group called Kilowattz (related to SDs' Kilowattz? No idea)...

Tenshun - Deadbeats
Another 'rare' item, one of Tenshun's very first tape album. It's from 2000. I'm not even sure it was ever commercialized. No tracklist, no info of course...

Sircut - Blending & Bending
This one's a mixtape by a german DJ from the Offbeaters collective. I don't know much about them other than they're somewhat related to Vinylkingz/Subversiv*Rec.
Dark and industrial mood overall, lots of Anticon-related stuff, which is rare enough on this format. There's no tracklist on the jacket but I knew most of the stuff here... If you know about the missing tracks hit the comment section though.

Imprints - Homeless Tea Party
A one-sided cassette EP from an early Tommy V. I chose it because i never saw it anywhere, so I guess this one's for the hardcore la2thebay collector nerds... And also, i love TV and I think he's way underrated.
There's 3 tracks + 1 instru, one is TV rapping with what seems to be his little cousins, and a long posse cut starring Awol One about controlling your emotions.

Log Cabin / Universouls - LA Experimental / Westcoast Underground
2017 Edit:
I just changed the link to a new, better sounding rip of my cassette. Still not thee perfect sound, there's still hiss background, but this time the rip is much louder. 320kbps mp3.
Original Post:
I bought this one with a batch of other LL tapes a few years ago on ebay. There's no tracklist on it.
Prior to that, all i knew was the bootleg floating on slsk with varying tracklists and track names.
Recently, finnish homie/collector Kaliyuga Pro gave me a tracklist Anti MC (Neosapien back then) posted on a msg board years ago, which led me to these facts: a. it matched my tape b. the slsk bootlegs were wrong versions and more of a track collection (for instance Submental is not a Log Cabin track but a Miscellaneous Minds one, an early Eligh/Scarub/Savant Young group, and therefore not featured on my tape) c. that actual tape compiled 2 albums: LA Experimental by Log Cabin, then Westcoast Underground by Universouls (Radio, Malik, Sahga & Tom Slikk). The second one is entirely produced by Elusive.
A last thing: the sound of my rip isn't the best one unfortunately... But at least it's the real deal.
