Free Download for the Week: Nick Hook, Without You (+ a Mini Spiel on Scion & the Arts)

NICK_HOOK_carrousel

Scion is one of those companies that really put the question to the forefront as to whether there can be legitimate positive symbiotic relationships between corporations and subcultures or if it’s simply called selling out/exploitation. While still on the fence, it’s probably been over a decade and they’ve worked with/boosted the career of pretty much every visual and musical artist I respect so I might just have to call it a net positive. Even if their interest isn’t purely altruistic, I’ll take my friends and peers getting some shine out of it rather than more Shaq Buick commercials.

Now that you’ve waded through that monologue, you get a little prize. Nick Hook has been on the dj scene in Nyc for awhile and now Scion is offering up his Without You Ep for a free download. Along the lines of Electronica/Hip hop (generic, lame comparison could be made to Flying Lotus, sorry) Nick Hook also calls in some help from the likes of El-p, Gaslamp Killer, MachineDrum, and more. Get yourz, here.
