In this special edition of the Haute Garbage Podcast, Drew sits down 1-on-1 with the newly minted CHAMPION of the Harry Mack Anomaly Cypher freestyle competition, A'Revolution! A'Rev is a renaissance woman: poet, performer, cybersecurity guru, MC, and founder of Sypher Saturdays (the premiere gathering of DJs and Freestylers here in PDX—and, yeah, she knows how it's spelled!). We talk about sharing the stage with a freestyle legend, the evolution of her artistic life, and what it means to go off the top and drop bars.

Take 10 seconds and grab a pair of oven mitts before you dive into the second installment of our Treefort adventures...cause this one is HOT! We get cozy with a trio of Boise based artists that blew our socks off during the fest...and we sort of needed those socks, 'cause we underpacked. But TOTALLY WORTH IT if the tradeoff is hanging with producer duo Dose Amigos, Alt rock wizards MYLO BYBEE, and super shredders Dirt Russell. Here's the dope tunes we played this week:

• "Soonish" by Dummy (2:17)
• "Let 'Em Drip" by Dose Amigos (27:20)
• "Friends We Once Had" by MYLO BYBEE (49:43)
• "Equalizer" by Dirt Russell (75:09)

Portland effing LEGENDS Berzerk are on the show this week! It is not hyperbole to say that Berzerk is one of the most important punk bands in Portland's storied music history, dating back to the early 90s—and they are back in the game, recording new music and playing new shows, and they haven't lost their fastball even a tiny bit. Mandy, Yianna, and Tyler came in HOT with stories about toenail collections, shows with AFI and Bikini Kill, and drug-fueled confidence. Plus, incredible music this week by:

• Berzerk
• Stress Test
• Railing
• 1876
• Bondo
