Were still tinkering around under the hood, but as you can see we are making some changes around here. After a few low-tech years, we are now on a responsively designed platform so you can enjoy all the goodies from the comforts of your mobile phone. The beauty of HTML 5 allows all video and music to be played on pretty much any device. And now that the site is technology agnostic (and infinite scrolling), we can continue the business of providing that sonic spark we all need to get by. This song is to commemorate our new look. I hope that you enjoy both.
That’s what I think this song sounds like… War, espionage, trench coats, fedoras and cigarettes on long gold holders… The sonic version of a Weegee photograph.
Its been a while since I’ve shared some of my work. This is an experiment I did about a year and a half ago. I’d heard Spike Lee talk about his disdain for music videos because they had changed the attention span of the viewer. We now wanted very short cuts in our films whereas he might want to use a longer shot. I thought this a great theory for how younger ears listen. As such I tried to produce a piece of radio that sounded like tv. Experiment aside, its a pretty funny story. Enjoy.
I really want to show love and respect for this dude. I was just listening to “Brainchild” from Society of Soul and began to think about how long I’ve been listening to Big Rube’s menacing voice. His contribution to the Dungeon Family catalog and to southern hip-hop in general is undeniable. Do knowledge.
I rarely see this man speak in public… I thought he was more of the Bernie Worrell kind of recluse. Nonetheless, there is no one in hip-hop that matches his output. Much Respect.
