This is the first official solo release from Mike Volpe, aka Clams Casino, unlikely provider of beats for Lil B, Havoc, Main Attrakionz, and Squadda B. Earlier in 2011, Volpe issued a free-download compilation of instrumentals he had granted to rappers. Here, he assembles a conceptual 18-minute EP from leftover beats, which further showcases his form of left-field hip-hop -- an affecting, dreamlike, decayed din that incorporates voice samples twisted to such an extent that they sound sourced from torture victims and brokenhearted zombies. Despite the artwork, track titles, and environmental FX, Rainforest evokes a damp, mossy urban prairie. It’s not easy to imagine any remotely lucid MC’ing over any of it, as the constructions tend to be denser than Clams’ vocal productions and rattle, thwack, and creep along. It’s all the more twisted that the tracks come not from one of the Tri Angle label’s “mysterious” artists but a traditionally photographed, normal-looking fellow from suburban New Jersey who lives with his mom, makes music in his attic, and drives a BMW.

When I visited Mike Volpe—bka Clams Casino—in Nutley, New Jersey for an interview in our magazine, he apologized more than once for the attic room where he works being a mess. It wasn’t. What’s there—a vacuum cleaner, spare dinner chairs, a Monopoly set and books on herbal healing and working out with a core ball—is neatly kept and in good shape, the stuff of a home that a family has lived in well. Clams took off his shoes before sitting down at desktop studio, a tower and flat screen Dell he’s worried will crash soon. The five songs that comprise his debut EP are dank, atmospheric ones that the rappers he teams with—Soulja Boy, Lil B and Squadda B among them—shied away from. But Volpe chose the small batch with purpose. ’I really wanted the tracks to stick together and have an overall theme,’ he says, ’and when I put them together I got like a nature/rainforest/tropic sort of vibe. It’s hard to explain, but seeing landscapes, colors like light green in my head.’ We’re seeing it dude! 100%. Buy Rainforest from Tri Angle on June 27th, and see Clams play MoMA PS1’s Warm Up on August 13th. Before that, read our feature on Clams Casino in FADER #74, on newsstands next Tuesday and online soon.
