Seven Days: Vermont's Independent Voice

Around the Block

After a brief stint as an MC, NYC’s Blockhead turned his attention to tweaking knobs and faders and has since become one of underground hip-hop’s most provocative and sought-after producers. Though he’s best known for his collaborations with Aesop Rock, his impressive resumé also includes work with the likes of Mac Lethal, Murs and Mike Ladd, among others. And in between, he’s somehow found time to release several platinum selling solo efforts for diverse London-based electro label Ninja Tune. This Thursday, February 23, Blockhead plays Club Metronome with opening support from NYC’s Kuxxan Summ and local bass heads Mushpost.
