Blitzen Trapper Field Rexx Hip-hop, bluegrass, country folk, indie rock and pop inform one of Portland’s sorta-secret treasures. Made at home on a “recorded for $22 on a dank and androgynous 4-track” reel-to-reel, there’s actually surprising fidelity going on here, along with superb songwriting and gleeful performances. You can tell someone was being careful about mic placement and catching good performances – something you don’t always get on a homemade record like this.
