Dissizit x Dez collab tee with DISSIZIT! MIXTAPE VOL. 2 by PHOREYZ

So, last night I’m in Georgetown and stop into MAJOR and find this nice large print tee of a monster about to devour a blonde chick eating a cartoon banana by LA based brand DISSIZIT!. I buy one in medium, only to discover when I got home that my tee came with a CD! The tee is a collaboration with Dez Einswell, and the artwork is the cover of the Limited Edition mixtape from DJ PHOREYZ.

So, as I’m trying on my shirt (it fits), I pop in the CD, and I am pleased with what I heard. The mix is a quality blend of Hip-Hop and Rock, blending the old with the new, and for the most part transitions are seamless and blend very well. Hip-Hop tracks include music from Jay-Z, DJ Krush, Common, Nas, Ghostface, Viktor Vaughn, and more. Rock tracks include Tool, Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix, Oasis, White Stripes, Radiohead and more. I can only think of one track that probably didn’t blend well with the vibe this mix set except for when it was mixed out of, and that was Deftones – Be Quiet and Drive (far away). (and I love Deftones). Otherwise, I liked what I heard.

Most of the tracks are really easily accessible, and most likely heard before with the exception of a few exclusives, but nevertheless this mix is worth a listen. I’ve already put it into my iPhone for easy access.
You can actually listen to the mix on the DISSIZIT! site, as well as the MIXTAPE vol. 1.

Here are shots of the shirt and CD.
