Zion I – The Search and Seizure Mixtape.

I was turned off by the bleepity bloops at first, but Zion I has grown on me. On side A, MC Zumbi and producer AmpLive remix some hip-hop classics and on side B is more on the electronic tip. You’re going to want to put this on and do a thousand crunches. This mixtape comes before the release of Zion I’s album The TakeOver January 27th.
