Austin, Texas-based DJ Design drops his new track THE BLUES, featuring Detroit’s Phat Kat & Elzhi

For his new single, producer DJ Design teams up with Phat Kat & Elzhi from J Dillas vaunted Slum Village crew. The track ‘The Blues‘ is aggressive and loud with screaming organs, laying down a backdrop for two very different perspectives rooted in the rough reality of lived experience from the heart of Motown, Detroit. This is the first single of Design’s upcoming producer/emcee album. Next to Phat Kat and Elzhi, other notable guests on the album are Fashawn, Guilty Simpson, LMNO, and Gennessee.

Early Stones Throw recording artist DJ Design, known for creating the iconic Quasimoto monster character and the LP cover design for ‘My Vinyl Weighs A Ton’ by Peanut Butter Wolf, is also a beat maker responsible for the seminal instrumental LP, ‘Gather Round’ with the supporting EP, ‘Sparkdala’ featuring Madlib/Quasimoto.
