Posting from my blackberry

Pretty cool.

Been doing a lot of digging, been keeping busy with a lil production work, headed to brooklyn hip hop festival tomorrow. And my mpc 1000 pads are due to be replaced soon. I need that pressure sensitivity working right. just rambling.

Another new joint....

Straight outta the mpc, unmastered. This will be on my upcoming EP.

Into Soul? Check this out

Kenny Raw from Philadelphia just released his new album "Left Handed Scissors". It's full of some ridiculous Soul/Funk edits.

Trust me, you won't be disappointed.

And it's free. Can't beat that.

And if your ever in Philly, keep an eye out, you might be lucky enough to catch him spinning one of his killer funk sets at 45 rotations per minute.

Some new music from yours truly, in the form of a remix

Some Azymuth for ya

Working on a remix at the moment and was looking for running through my crates looking for a few small samples to finish it up. Looking through my jazz section, I stumbled across Azymuth's 1982 release, "Cascades". I had picked this up months ago, but might've only gave it one quick spin. My Madlib heads might recognize this joint off the incredible "Brasilintime" DVD that Mochilla put out a few years back.
