Testing Ground - Logikingone 0.0



This one is probably late 90es-early 00es by Bay Area duo Testing Ground, comprised of Logic and DJ King One.
King One has released a handful of underground mixtapes while Logic has one split 7'' on Sublevel Epidemic (the red one with Deeskee on the flip). He later had a solo career in garage rock under his real name, Hanni El Khatib and went on to found the very hip Innovative Leisure label with two other guys. This is a rather nice and overlooked one... check it out!

In another news, HHV launched a new indie label called 90's Tapes and two of three of their latest releases on both vinyl and cassettes format are pretty dope and obscure: Mystery's Extinction (Blame One early group from San Diego)'s self titled album is one and Endangered Species' Intangible is another. So that's both courageous and promising for a young label... Definitely go support them.
Hopefully more obscure westcoast & canadian reissues to come..
