Out of a CBC Radio Live session collaboration between Owen Pallet aka Final Fantasy and rapper Cadence Weapon comes this intriguing bunch of MP3s. Pallet pairs his violin with Cadence Weapon’s sharp rhyme style to beautiful effect while Cadence embellishes Final Fantasy originals with slight electro touches.

Shane from the Torture Garden posted these songs back in April but I completely missed them somehow. Glad to finally make their acquaintance. I should also remind you that Cadence Weapon’s Breaking Kayfabe is one of the best hip hop albums of the year and a little birdie told me Final Fantasy will be back in December for an early Christmas present ;)
