Album Datz Cold's Paranekroi EP

Seattle hiphop producer/MC Datz Cold is making his five-track Paranekroi EP available for free through Halloween. Go here to download/listen to it.

Here's something I wrote about Datz Cold in 2004, which applies to the above release, as well:

It's tough to make dark hiphop without sounding at least slightly corny, but Seattle's Datz Cold (Jeremy Moss) instills a genuine chill with each of his tar-encrusted electro-funk tracks. Datz Cold's debut disc, 2003's A Green Hell, sounds like a lost gem from WordSound's Crooklyn bunker. "Surreal like Argento," Datz Cold raps on "Jaws of Life," and his own cuts exude the creepily gothic aura animating that Italian horror-film auteur's work. While Moss is retiring his Zero BPM label and Datz Cold moniker after this gig, he plans to continue creating sounds that give even thugs the heebie-jeebies.

Moss' current project By Proxy is also worth checking.

No, this is total crap. Seattle people need to go listen to some Grayskul this Halloween Season instead.

Dave Segal, the official Datz Cold publicist. Typical hype of a shitty music group by a shitty writer.

Billy, you know damn well Grayskul ripped off their name from Datz Cold's song "Electro"!

I've never got a feature in line out, yet Datz Cold just did. Is it time to kill myself yet?

A brief blog post ≠ a feature.

Send us a link and/or music, MTK. Don't be coy.
