Cadence Weapon ‘shares’ new release with name-your-own-price

No you read that correctly. Ahead of the release of his new album, Big Dada signing Cadence Weapon is releasing an album of remixes and unreleased tracks and taking his cue from Radiohead and others by asking people to name their own price.

I haven’t had time to listen to it yet, but there’s definitely a few interesting ones on there including his remix of Busdriver. If you’re a fan of his previous work then this is definitely something worth checking out, and it’s nice to see more artists, especially less established ones then Radiohead or NIN choosing this route of asking people to pay what they want to for the music. Especially considering this acts essentially as promo for the forthcoming release (which let’s face it ain’t gonna be on the same terms).

From the press release:

The 20 tracks brought together in a 70-minute collection include the Mixmag exclusive Hervé/A-Trak/Cadence Weapon collaboration “Roll With The Winners” and remixes of label-mates The Cansecos and Roots Manuva, and arguably the show-stopper; a remix of The DB Buxton Revue’s “Sex With My Ex”.
