Busdriver Mix
Busdriver Rolls Out Murdering Boys for Sport Mix for Free
New LP Beaus$Eros Out 2/14/12 in North America on Fake Four Inc
Announces February Colorado Dates, SXSW
Beaus$Eros, the recently-announced seventh full-length from indie rap trailblazer Busdriver, forgoes the lightening-speed rhyming that defined his style in favor of a diverse, off-kilter brand of pop and post-hip-hop. Keeping things technically challenging on the new record, Busdriver has made his most personal and avant-garde work yet with Beaus$Eros. Focusing on a devastating break-up and personal failure, the album is buttered in stirring melodies and complex vocals and are on full display with “Bon Bon Fire,” as well as in the ultra-surreal video for “Kiss Me Back To Life,”. In step with Busdriver’s
recent work with forward-thinking producers Flying Lotus, Modeselektor, Nosaj Thing and others,
the production on Beaus$Eros takes root in beat music, lush IDM, and sythpop. Beaus$Eros has an
adjusted North American release date of February 14th, 2012. Busdriver will be hitting the road in
2012… stay tuned.
Busdriver aka Regan Farquhar, recently put the finishing touches on a new mix he’s calling Murdering

own, twisting lyrical mind (Toro Y Moi, DJ Quick, Thundercat, Bill Whiters, Drake, and more),
