Seattle rap goofballs the Saturday Knights have titled their forthcoming debut LP Mingle, and that's exactly what they did in the process of making the record. Mingle is full of guests from all corners of the music world, featuring appearances from the Dap-Kings, Soundgarden's Kim Thayil, Nirvana producer Jack Endino, the legendary Jim Horn and the Muscle Shoals Horns (Horn played on Pet Sounds and the original Shaft soundtrack), and Chris Ballew from Presidents of the United States of America. And those are only a few names on the Seattle-heavy list of people joining the Knights (aka DJ Suspence and MCs Tilson and Barfly) on Mingle.

But who, you might ask, is putting out this collection of live-accompanied throwback rap tracks? That would be the reissue masters at hometown label Light in the Attic. And they will do so on June 24.
