'Gum Drop Giveaway #46

Yes indeed, as the folks at Def Jux put it:

Didn't get a chance to pick up the new album by Del The Funky Homosapien? Missed out on the latest albums from Aesop Rock, El-P or Dizzee Rascal? Need some new clothes because you found yourself waking up this morning in some random person's backyard with funny stains on your shirt? Well fear not because Def Jux always has your back.

We've recently relaunched our site, giving you the ability to add digital and physical merchandise to your cart. Go ahead and buy a digital download of Aesop Rock's None Shall Pass while picking up a few t-shirts, sketchbooks, belt buckles and more!

We'd like to give you, dear Stereogum reader, the chance to win a $105 digital gift certificate so you can load up your Def Jux shopping cart! Oh, did we forget to mention we made limited edition sneakers designed my Phase 2 and Bisc 1? Oh, and those only cost $105 ... lucky you.

The sneaks:

Evan Voytas - "I Run With You, Spirit Animal" Video
Los Angeles-via-Pennsylvania multi-instrumental singer and home recordist Evan Voytas -- sort of a more clean-cut Ariel Pink -- creates strange synth-pop/space-disco outings that feel danceable but private and insular. The idea's explored in the video for his most recent single... (more)

Dr. Dog - "Shadow People" (Stereogum Premiere)
Dr. Dog have been a band for over a decade now, Philadelphia-based throughout. Their hometown hasn't factored much into their sound, which throws back to the Beatles-era of the classic rock school, or their themes and lyrical schemes. That's changed... (more)
