The Hood Internet is Chicago-based production duo comprised of ABX and STV SLV. They are mostly known for their outstanding mash-ups of Hip Hop with Indie Rock. The band blew up over the last several years and have already conquered events like Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo and many others.

Recently they’ve been trying something new. They’re currently working on producing an album that will mostly include original material through their collaborations with artists like BBU, Das Racist, My Gold Mask, Kid Static and others.

STV SLV joins Jesse Menendez on Vocalo’s MusicVox to talk about how the project began, how they gained so much recognition and got into playing live shows, what he thinks about the art of mash-ups and what their Album Tacos project is all about.
