BADLUCK “The Ascended Remixes EP”

July 14th marks the 10th annual Netlabel Day—and you already know blocSonic had to bring the heat. One of the highlights of our 7-release celebration is the brand-new remix project from Bed-Stuy’s own BADLUCK. “The Ascended Remixes EP” is a tight four-track joint that finds songs from his 2024 album Rocket Science 5: Ascended Intellect flipped, twisted, and elevated by a trio of creative producers.

“Ascended Intellect” gets two distinct reworks from Vik44 and blocSonic founder mGee, each bringing their unique creative lens to the track. mGee also returns for a second remix, this time tackling “Take My Soul.” Rounding out the EP is Lowkey Lu, a GLD8TRZ comrade, who delivers his own take on “Give Me My Space,” adding to the project’s diverse lineup of perspectives.

BADLUCK’s been part of the blocSonic fam since the early days—2009 to be exact—when he debuted as part of Luck & Ripps on The Catastrophic Connection. Since then, he’s been grinding solo and as a member of GLD8TRZ, KIN/LUCK, and Luck & Doc, always staying true to his New York roots and sharp lyricism. This remix EP is another chapter in that journey—proof that you can keep reinventing while staying grounded in boom bap tradition.

Whether you’re here for the beats, the bars, or just the love of independent music culture, “The Ascended Remixes EP” is a reminder that hip-hop—and netlabels—still got something to say.

Happy Netlabel Day!
