All Your Friend’s Friends is a seminal Northwest hip hop compilation album, produced entirely off of samples pulled from the catalogue of legendary indie rock label K records. Featuring 30 of the most unique MCs from the region, including members of mega-crews Sandpeople and Oldominion, the album also introduces a host of hidden talent from Olympia, WA – K’s sonic stomping ground. Producer Smoke M2D6 has mercilessly deconstructed the classic lo-fi garage soul sound of the iconic label, artfully rearranging it all over a thick foundation of classic breaks, 808’s, and heavy bass. The powerful result is evident on the album’s first single and opening track, “Cynic Syndrome,” which features MCs Onry Ozzborn (Dark Time Sunshine, Grayskul), Zikki Carr, and Candidt over a brain-shaking beat with aggressive drums and chopped up vocal samples.

All Your Friend’s Friends will be available online and in stores November 11th. In addition to the album, there will be a mini-documentary of the same name releasing later this month. The film takes an in-depth look at the making of the album as well as how the idea came to fruition. Not only does it feature interviews with many of the artists who contributed to the project, it also features a very special guest: Seattle indie hip hop legend Macklemore. Below are the first glimpses of a very special project – a stream of the first single and a trailer for the upcoming mini-doc with Northwest artists sharing their three-word musical mission statement.
