'Amidst The Darkness - The Prequel&trade' - FREE DOWNLOAD AVAILABLE NOW!!!



*CUE ANGELIC CHOIR*

Alright people, here it is.. In its entirety.. "Amidst The Darkness - The Prequel&trade" available on BANDCAMP.COM, REVERBNATION and LAST.FM and many other sites to come (that will be another post when it happens) til then grab it RIGHT NOW from these sites!

So, what now? Enjoy the album.. It is the beginning of a transitioning Myc Ripley, because where I'm at now; is not where I was then.. Hence the name ATD. I haven't had that much clarity about myself until recently and in that I have found that both of the concepts for this and the next drop were totally relevant!!! I say this, since I wasn't really wanting to put this out there.. Honestly its a journey in its whole, follow me as we go down the dark path towards the light!!!

During the last week, I've given some sneak peek previews of the rough mixed version of ATD to various people in circle & there was actually some great feedback! *Sounds my own trumpets!!* Here are some:

@screwloosemusic http://www.screwloosemusic.com

ON1 says, "Just listened to it through man and there are some slappers! I would take that electric blurp outta 'Try 2 End Me' tho, kinda rough on da ears. Other than that, the album is pretty solid my dude. Insidem and Leave Her are my favorites right now. Imma go through it again tonight. Oh and Top Knotch, that song is hella funky too. the synths are saucy."

Mike J says, "I thought the mixes were sounding good. Transitions were a lil ruff but that's expected. U r a beast my friend!"

@soliscin http://www.reverbnation.com/soliscinmusic

Solis says, "ATD is Dope fam!!! Slaps all day. Back to back. My favorite track had to be Amidst the Darkness tho. The beat, the rhyme schemes, the meaning. All around a dope track!!! It didn't stop there. 2DoMe, My Sable. Slaps kept coming. Myc Ripley's flow is like water.. Salute!!"

@frugalfarmacy http://www.frugalfarmacy.com

MedsRx says, "Oh and u wanna talk lyrics? @mycripley comes thru with some of that real acrobatic turf talk! Wordplay for days. Myc Ripley "Amidst the Darkness" get it. "Dead in your Arms" is real music. Listen to the evolution of a man... Mr. Myc Ripley. Tracks like topknotch are straight slapptastic!!"

Amidst The Darkness&trade - Free DL coming 07.25.10





Well, I know many folks have been waiting for Myc Ripley to drop something since "The Adventure of Jack Rabbid&trade" in 08.08.2008.. Its been about two years!! Personally, I had to find some peace of mind before and after I tried to take myself out the game permanently. So, now I am back and ready to get the 2nd half of the year crackin'!!!


Now, heading up to July 25, 2010, I have compiled two (2) albums for your listening pleasure!! Many of you have fell through to my Reverbnation page (player on the sidelines------>) and have visited various site that I am on.. I WANNA SAY, "THANKS FOR THE SUPPORT!!!" The FREE DIGITAL DOWNLOAD is specifically for you.. hahaa! Also, for others who stumble across it..


This album will be a prequel to my "debut" album (so to speak) called "Purify The Album&trade" (artwork after blog post) which is a compilation of trying to separate the dirt particles from the water cycle (flow) of San Jose and worldwide. This will be a physical CD so when you see me make sure you cop it or get it online for about 5 bux. Maybe even lower, who knows?


BUT GO NOW TO BANDCAMP and vibe out to the title track off the album!!! Also, be on the lookout for me in the streets with that "PURIFY THE ALBUM&trade" on 08.08.2010

PURIFY THE ALBUM ARTWORK..
