Sleep was recently involved in a huge collaborative effort with Black Mask producer Maulskull called “Death By Thr33s”. The 3 track “3P” is available for free on BLACK MASK’S BANDCAMP right now, along with a ton of other free 3 track releases that drop every wednesday. This is a huge project, involving over 20 artists across four states, each with original, hand-painted cover art. Check out Sleep’s portion and then move on down the list of free songs. Here’s what Black Mask had to say about it:
Welcome to “Death By Thr33s Vol 18, While You Were Sl33ping”… This is the eighteenth volume in a series of several, three track “ThreE.P.” style releases from the ENTIRE extended Black Mask family of artists. Each artist or group of artists were given three instrumentals produced by Maulskull of Black Mask and given six weeks to write, record and send them back with verses. A total of 19 artists were involved from four different states and regions. This series represents what is achievable in a very short amount of time with a very large amount of work and collaboration between artists. OVER 40 TRACKS will be available for free download over the next few months and Black Mask will be releasing a different three track E.P. from a different artist EVERY WEDNESDAY until all tracks have been released. You can definitely expect a physical “Best Of DB3” cd to be out in 2012. “Death By Thr33s” represents reaching out to other artists with an open hand, so its only right that the album art would do the same. Thats why local Denver artist, Chelsey Christy, was commissioned to paint a series of “Death By Thr33s” canvas paintings revolving around the idea of reaching out, along with her personal interpretations of each artist’s tracks. Very interesting and every album cover will be different! So please enjoy your free download of each volume and PLEASE SUPPORT THESE ARTISTS!! THANK YOU AND BLESSINGS! -BLACK MASK-
