We offer you a new album from the mysterious VALD WEGAN.
Who is this man? Where does he come from? And what does this man want? A man who wrestles with ghosts, housecats, graff writers and cops. A man who loves diet coke and crackers. A man who has some dubious ideas about the opposite sex. A man who's on the Chop Shop cover welding vinyl records together. Listen to the album LÖGMÁL HAFSINS and maybe you can get to know him a little bit better.
And we encourage everyone to check out the RÉTTIR / REYKJAVIK ROUND UP concert festival who's a recent CoxButter collaborator. On Thursday Sept. 24th we'll be hosting a show at Jacobsen as a part of the festival, everyone's invited. More info to be found at our FACEBOOK PAGE.
And soon we'll be giving the website a makeover so stay alert!
Good bye for now..

Now as the days grow shorter it's good to get a brighter perspective on things.
Ljósvaki is the name of our new friend and he's optimism through and through.
Ljósvaki EP is his debut as a singer/songwriter and it's exactly what we thought you could use in the late summer sun..
Good day!

Good day today. At least too good to pay bills. More of a good day to cancel your debts. Anyway that's what rap veteran 7berg feels like and we're lucky enough to have a new album from the man - "Of Góður Dagur Til Að Borga Reikninga".
Put that shit in your tapedeck and enjoy the summer in Reykjavik, or wherever place you're at.
And a little reminder about the monthly Coxbutter night at Jacobsen, Austurstræti. More info at our Facebook page.
High five, enjoy the summertimes.

Sorry about us.. the economic recession, computer shortage and pan-atlantic migration has put it's mark on the supply of digital butter.. But now for reforms!
PUSH PADS come through with some raw grimy shit for the beatheads. BFF's PROGRESSIVE and FONETIK SIMBOL were all hopped up on munchies and put together "THE CHOP SHOP" in memoriam of Pro's Cadillac who's now in car heaven - RIP.
In other news there's more new shit coming, what's better in the middle of an economic crisis than free music?!
Viva la revolucion...
Double Whammy

Greetings. Ever tried putting two hotdogs in the same bun? No? Well you're not missing out on anything great, but don't miss out on CoxButter's very first double release!
Two full length albums for your listening pleasure:
- One courtesy of MC Rain (TMC, Audio Improvement) and Byrkir (Forgotten Lores). The double dragons team up as the psychedelic-duo Regnskóg, on some shaman shit offering a trip through the spirit world on "Lungu Heimsins". So breathe deep...
- And another from veteran beatmaker Steve Sampling and his co-conspiritor Ragúel with their first album together "Það Sem Verður Til". Beats and rhymes for those in need indeed. Check it out...
Hope you fine folks enjoy the double decker CoxBurger.
Until next time...

80's cartoons were the shit!
You'd wake up at weekends before dawn to make sure you wouldn't miss the toons on TV,
while it took a tractor to pull you out of bed any other day of the week. And then you wished it was weekend already, right..
You feel like your back in your PJ's in the living room, munching on Honey Nut Cheerios on a Sunday morning enjoying your favorite
cartoons. Or that's at least how we here at CoxButter are feeling this album..
Enjoy the music and stop by again soon..
Peace!

April is coming up and spring is in the air. We here at CoxButter Towers couldn't think of a better way to say goodbye to winter then by giving you Neðanjörður's first album, Veturmær.
We would like to thank all of you who have added CoxButter to your diet and hope you will stop by on a regular basis. Peace!

Damn, the weekend is almost over. Back to your school/workplace with your system rebooted an ready to make your parents proud yeah... no?
Then we got a little something to ease the old weekend-Monday transition. CLASS B's first solo project, "Upset EP" is, as of today, available to you and yours.
And if you haven't signed up on our mailing list yet, how about doing so now? We promise we will only send cool mails to you when something cool happens. OK? Great...
A warm winter whats'up...
02.03.'08
Are the cold and the darkness too much? Then how about some revitalizing CoxButter to keep warm?
Check out Råcksta Vibes, the most recent solo project from Earmax is now available and we sure hope it does the trick.
If not we got a heap of goodies in the oven; Class B, Arkir (Intro & Byrkir of FL),Neðanjörður, Thundacats (Fonetik & S. Cro of Original Melody) and Audio Improvement have all confirmed they got some gourmet shit for you that'll be served up at the site in the next weeks.
So shake of the goosebumps and stay tuned...
Leftovers
01.02.'08
CoxButter in conjunction with Reykjavik rap group; Forgotten Lores, have decided to start the new year with a little return to the old ones.
Since the year 2000 the five members of FL have worked together and now eight years and two LP's later, a little house keeping is long over due.
"REST OF 2000 - 2007" is a collection of old and rare recordings, previously unreleased material and remixes that have piled up in their catalogue through the years.
What better way to celibrate the new year than with a little nostalgia trip!
Happy new year from the CoxButter krew...
