Run DMT

By naming himself Run DMT and giving his albums and mixes names like Bong Voyage and Get Ripped or Die Trying, Baltimore's Mike Collins has done a wonderful job of branding himself. Minute long fragments of sped up African guitar solos, hazy, ghostly Hawaiian luau music, overdriven tropical psych, and mournful drone music cohere together because it's easy to imagine that this is the soundtrack to the world of a pop-culture addicted, sarcastic-about-some-things-painfully-earnest-about-others, polyglot stoner.
