  • Dean Blunt's Narcissist II mixtape from earlier this year will see release on vinyl next month via Brooklyn's Hippos In Tanks. Along with Inga Copeland, Blunt is a key member of the group Hype Williams. He originally released Narcissist II as a free online mixtape in February, two months before his latest album with Copeland (Black Is Beautiful) hit stores. Featuring 30 minutes of weird and murky R&B, Narcissist II is a natural fit for Hippos In Tanks, the experimental-leaning label that's home to artists like James Ferraro and Laurel Halo. The album has been remixed and remastered for its official release, and will be available only on limited edition vinyl (complete with a download code). As you can see on the right, it features the same kind of disconcerting cover art that adorned Black Is Beautiful. No tracklist is available. To get a feel for what Blunt's all about, have a look at the official video for "Narcissist" (featuring Inga Copeland) below.
    Hippos in Tanks will release Narcissist II on November 26th, 2012.
