A Cobblers Tee Thug is a collaborative album between C418 and sohnemann, released in 2010. The two created it for fun in only five days when they were together for New Years, and to this day C418 does not consider the album to be very good in quality. The entire album is released under CC BY-NC-ND 3.0.
Official Descriptions
Collaboration between C418 and smn. Bear in mind this is an album that was made in five days for shits and giggles. It's not that good really.
a cobblers tee thug is a real stinker. But there’s a reason to it!
This album was created with my old friend, “sohnemann,” or sometimes also “smn”. New Years 2009 we decided to hang out together and create an entire LP length album in what little time we had. Which was much less than 5 days.
We accomplished that goal, but boy oh boy are these some mediocre songs, ha!
Though, let me point out a few songs that aren’t as half bad.
—C418
A collaborative work. C418 and smn in the last week of 2009, sweating to desperately make an album at all cost. This is the outcome, and it’s definitely a sweatfest. Not every song shines, a lot of missing teeth. It could have been better, but then again we were just having fun.

goltra
Well...
goltra has a real dissonance and I think that’s why I still like it.
—C418
crowdpleaser
Well...
crowdpleaser is a drum and bass song which we wanted to create because we attended a DnB party the day before. We kinda made fun of the fact that a lot of DnB songs are in, what was it again, 5/4? And that there’s guys shouting randomly.

test
Literally
test is a not half bad uplifting house track. I think we knew it at the time, so we put a lot of polish in it. Well, as much polish as you can give a turd with less than 3 hours of work on it.
