This is another one of those great finds, a rare Wu-Tang mixtape circa '96-97 that you could only get at skate shops. Classic mixtape flavor while I wait for the 2am intermediate advisory. Although it looks like Ike is going to smack Northern Cuba with Category 4 fury. Comforting that we averted it, but the fact that Cuba is getting hit yet again this season -- not so much.
Excerpt:
Mystagogue Vol. II was only ever released on audiotape, around 1996 or '97, packaged as a freebie with Slap skateboard magazine.DOWNLOAD: Wu-Tang Clan - Mystagogue Vol. II [Mixtape]
In order to get it you had to buy the issue that was sold in skateboard shops (i.e., it wasn't packaged with bookshop or other newsstand copies).
This is pretty early Wu, and at the time they had a board company that sponsored Kevin Taylor, who's now with Zoo York.
The mix itself is gritty Rza, with beats from Tical, Forever, 36 Chambers, etc. mixed with jazz and funk.
