On February 19, 2008, DJ Clay released Let 'Em Bleed: The Mixxtape, Vol. 1, the first installment of a series of mixtapes which contain brand new and remixed songs from artists from the Psychopathic Records and Hatchet House roster.[2] Clay continued the series through 2009. That June, Mike E. Clark began his own series of mixtapes with Psychopathic Murder Mix Volume 1. On March 23, 2010, all four Let 'Em Bleed mixtapes were released in the Let 'Em Bleed: The Mixxtapes Boxset.[3] In the May 7 edition of the Hatchet Herald, it was announced that DJ Clay would be releasing a new series of mixtapes called Book of the Wicked.[4]
