This collection of instrumentals doesn't simply survey Clams' production it turns his rap beats into moody compositions and flips the basic beat-tape concept into an album-like collection of electronic music.Ĭlams Casino productions generally bring together conventional hip-hop drums, a sensitive ear for off-to-the-side melodies, and an overdose of oddly moving atmosphere. It speaks to Clams' rarefied vision that he refuses to find room for an in-demand instrumental on a free download but includes an untitled final track, a bizarre, minute-long footwork-like manipulation of 'Teddy's Jam' from 1980s new jack swing group Guy.

'I'm God' isn't included on Instrumental Mixtape the beats here are even more diffuse, and it wouldn't really fit.
