Alternative Hip Hop Artist Kinnecom Releases ‘Intermission’ Mixtape for Free

Imminence Records’ emerging North Carolina alternative hip hop artist Kinnecom has released his brand new mixtape Intermission for FREE and in complete surprise to his listeners. Intermission is available on Bandcamp and YouTube with eight tracks that features the mixtape exclusive track In The Moment I Left, three new tracks to be featured on the forthcoming new album, two remixed tracks from his debut album Virtual Gravity, and two covers including PartyNextDoor’s “Her Way” and Linkin Park’s “Faint.” Kinnecom hasn’t taken a break from the studio since the beginning stages of tracking his debut and has given a hint of his recent partnership with producer Nick Scott (I See Stars, Emmure, Slaves) by releasing their first collaboration, entitled “Water,” on the mixtape.

On the mixtape and future plans Kinnecom comments, “After all of the support and positive reactions I received after the release of Virtual Gravity, I wanted to give listeners a gift in return. The staff at Imminence Records and I came up with the perfect idea that I would give fans a taste of the upcoming music, a couple remixed tracks for fans to sing along to, and a couple covers to give listeners a unique taste to some familiar tracks. Partnering up with Nick Scott has really been a blessing. Our teamwork is incredibly cohesive, and every time the tracks go back and forth it is just astonishing to see the music grow. Nick makes the tracks explosive and is always adding something unique to the mix. He has a very mature and experienced ear. We both grew up in the alternative music scene so you can always hear a taste of that peeking into the work we do.”

While the mixtape is to showcase some new music, it also serves to promote Kinnecom’s debut full length Virtual Gravity that was released back in November on Imminence Records. The eight track album is available for from iTunes, AmazonMP3, Google Play, Bandcamp, Spotify, and Rdio. The project is the solo side project of Motiv (formerly named Motivational) guitarist Andrew Kinnecom that brings deep instrumentals and emotional soundscapes to modern music while challenging modern day mainstream artists with powerful songwriting. The full length and mixtape blends alternative hip hop, soul, RnB, and pop, among other influences, together to create a masterful soundscape that will please any music fan.

About Kinnecom:

Emerging out of Raleigh, NC, alternative hip hop artist Kinnecom grew up performing and writing his own music at a very young age. He has written/recorded multiple albums, toured nationally, and worked with artists and producers nationwide. In 2011, Kinnecom recorded his solo instrumental album gaining him recognition from artists around the country. This recognition brought him to move across the country to record an album with Drew Fulk and sign his first recording contract with Indianola Records during his stint with post-hardcore outfit, Wealth In Water. After Wealth In Water disbanded in 2013, Kinnecom and fellow members formed Motiv (formerly named Motivational) before heading out on two national tours and recorded their debut album in mid-2014.

During that same timeframe, Kinnecom began work on his debut full length album entitled Virtual Gravity. The hard hitting album is blended with textural ambiance, soothing vocals, and poetic rapping that brings his dynamic music to stand out in the music industry. Virtual Gravity plays as an outlet to tell Kinnecom’s story and his perspective on current social issues, uphill struggles throughout his career, and motivating messages directed to his listeners. By blending powerful songwriting and emotional soundscapes, Kinnecom defines cinematic hip hop. His debut album was released November 18^th on Imminence Records. Quickly thereafter he released a free mixtape by the name of Intermission.
