Be it a geniunely new release or a “remix”, it’s always good news whenever there’s a new Madlib release. The prolific beatmaker who never leaves his studio has just released a rework of his collaboration with the secretive no-chorus rapper MF Doom.

2004 classic “Madvillainy” is given a treatment by the man here with new beats and arrangements. He’s ridiculously good at making beats, I wonder if he ever tires of making ‘em.
Stones Throw has called this one “Like visiting with a friend who you haven’t seen in years and remembering why you were friends to begin with” and while it’s not a new album if you’re a Madlib enthusiast like me, it will quench your thirst for some time, and if you’ve missed it the first time, you can start from here as well.

There will be a saliva inducing limited edition box of this release with a cassette, 7″, a t-shirt and a comic book and there are yet two more releases on the Stones Throw camp, Madlib Beat Konducta Vol.5 and Madlib’s WLIB AM: King of the Wigflip which I’ll be yapping about as soon as I get my greasy hands on them.
