A technique in which adventurous musicians dismantle electronic devices, add new components and connect circuits in ways that the manufacturers never intended, circuit bending has become a popular way of squeezing crazy new sounds out of old machines. While I don’t know whether Jonny Juliano actually monkeyed with the insides of a Roland TR-808 (Some gear heads would view that as sacrilege) to create the backdrop for Stevie Stone’ latest single, 808 Bendin does feature some of the rawest electronic effects to hit my eardrums in a minute. Here, the heavyweight beatsmith’s skittering percussion and squelching synth-bass pound in the back as the Strange Music emcee smokes, brags and trash-talks his way through gruff, aggressively-flowed verses. Label boss Tech N9ne assists on the guest tip, showcasing his knack for theatrical delivery in an engagingly schizophrenic middle 16. Has this grimy street scorcher earned a spot on your whip playlist? Then you can look forward to more bangers on the Midwestern rhymesayer’s Rollin’ Stone LP, due out June 12, and available for pre-order via Strange Music‘s official site.

This song first appeared on the Independent Chart on June 4, 2012

This sh*t is crazy. To say this is an engaging listen would be a monumental understatement.

Jonny Juliano did his thing on this bounce beat. I like the flow of this one... Bumps in the headphones.

People are sleeping on Stevie Stone. This man has potential and when you mix him with Tech you get straight fire.

For me its hard to listen to anything by Tech N9ne. He has definitely progressed in his rhyme and especially his business. I just remember using his old promo records as coasters at the station to being intrigued by his music and features now. While I am all for open minded music, I can't help but to feel a gimmick. Sorry Stevie Stone.. I just need to listen to more music and catch a vibe. Production and energy on the rhymes is hard though. We love the 808 in Miami.
