Anacron Drops "The Facelift 3: Cosmetic Characteristics" - By : Rud - May 17, 2012
Dubcnn first introduced readers to Anacron back in December 2007. Having released a hugely underrated album with Murs under the group name The Netherworlds in 2001, Anacron worked on projects including Cornrowz with Old Man Malcom, the original DJ from Garbage and Citizen King dropping tracks like Panties (Old Man Malcom Remix) with Murs plus solo material like Pneumonia (Way 2 Sicc) produced by Earmint, Club Etiquette and We Got The Beat alongside Irie of Pairograffs.
In mid 2008 the Los Angeles native dropped a free EP for Dubcnn readers that featured new material. The Anacron - Dubcnn EP featured 8 tracks of dope music - if you missed it, you might be four years late but its never too late!
Sadly it's been the same 4 years since that EP that Dubcnn have been silent on Anacron. In the years between he's dropped material including "Cornrowz: The Album That Never Was," the "Unscene Quartet EP," a string of singles as well as 3 instalments in a series of remix projects called "The Facelift."
"The Facelift 1: Fabricated Features" dropped in 2010, "The Facelift 2: ArtOfficial Attributes" in 2011 and earlier this year he dropped his third annual remix album where he once again took a set of existing records and reworked them; bending and sometimes breaking the original structure of tunes with mild to extreme crafting and arrangement. This years 12 track The Facelift 3: Cosmetic Characteristics saw him tackle cuts from Kokane, Nicki Minaj, DJ Quik and more.
You can get The Facelift 3: Cosmetic Characteristics for free now via BandCamp but we wanted to share with you two of the tracks from the release with some words from the man himself!
First up we have his take on "So West Coast" featuring MDA & Z-Man over the DJ Quik instrumental. "I feel that this is one of Quik's freshest beats, and I'm all about N. Cannon's original song concept... So I flipped it and sang a new hook, rapped a verse, and put my homies MDA & Z-Man (members of One Bloc Radius with Marty James) on it. The result took what Quik & Cannon started way further into the deepest pits of the West that aren't as well known," Anacron told Dubcnn.

Next up we see him tackle the Kokane single "Twilight Zone." Anacron explained; "This was one of my top 3 most played songs of 2010. Since it was massively slept on but the message is still relevant, I gave the song a complete overhaul for 2012 and produced a completely new beat, added my own verse trade-off with Kokane, and redid the hook. Got the Twitter cosign on this one from Kokane himself, for the WIN."

Enjoy the new material and if you haven't yet go get The Facelift 3: Cosmetic Characteristics for free now via BandCamp!
You'll be pleased to know that this is the first of many updates ensuring we keep you up to date with Anacron from here on out, in fact tonight he is sub-headlining for King Fantastic - who incidentally dropped their SocioPoliticalPimpTalk EP on iTunes last week - at the Viper Room!
