Chrissy Murderbot‘s 2010 was all about his somewhat-insane My Year of Mixtapes project, but it’s looking like the Chicago-based artist wants to make 2011 all about establishing himself as a producer. On April 4, he’ll be releasing the Bussin’ Down EP on Planet Mu, which will be followed by a full-length album, Women’s Studies, later in the year. Not surprisingly, Murderbot has been digging into his hometown’s juke and footwork sounds, and the new EP’s title track employs the assistance of DJ Spinn. The five-track release also features a remix from Spinn & DJ Rashad, but it’s not all juke workship; also included are re-works from Ghosts on Tape and Atki2. The entire EP is streaming below.
