I Can Break It Down

a groovy track produced by berlin's own 'true beatz crew' featuring your's truly.  i made a deal with my friend steve rolle (true beatz member) where i would record some vocals for the crew if he would give me a ride to the airport at 6am the next morning; this is the result of that agreement.  it's a song about the artistic love affair some of us fall into with music, namely funk, and like many objects of affection, the funk can be elusive and cruel but once you've been with her, it's hard to imagine being with anyone else.  i hope you enjoy it!

Chasin' the funk

Don't Play Around (Inst.)

We know time is precious thesedays, with just so much to consume in the world. Thankfully Boca 45 has managed to cram all of his new album into a handy 5 minute blast of beats, rhymes and psyche that encapsulates "Dig Eat Beats Repeat"

Obviously we'd suggest you slow down a little and take in the splendour of the full article, which will be released on the 23rd March.

BOCA 45 "Dig Eat Beats Repeat" 5 Minute Minimix

An uplifting Jazz dance classic, sampled by Greyboy for "Unwind Your Mind".

Richard 'Groove' Holmes - No Trouble On The Mountain

Los Angeles duo Ras Kass and Jack Splash, the Oxymorons known as Semi Hendrix ,have been releasing a broad spectrum array of sounds ever since the announcement of their new record “Breakfast At Banksy’s.” One of producer Jack Splash’s strongest suits is the ability to fuse any genre into a fresh blend of driving movements for your speakers. From the more straightforward underground production on the single “Jesus Pressed Mute” to the dizzyingly distorted “Bukowski,” Jack Splash and Ras Kass have quickly established a unique brand of funk and rock infused rap that sits atop the underground of sounds. 

Perhaps the most mainstream of any song on their new record, “Sex Pistol” is an unabashed reminder of the things that drive the baser among us – physical beauty, lust, and sex. And who better to lace the hook than everybody’s favorite ATLien, CeeLo Green. From “Cell Therapy” to singing “Fuck You” at an Obama fundraiser, CeeLo Green has consistently been the go to voice for soul. Here he lends his legendary pipes to Jack Splash’s up-tempo “Sex Pistol” while Ras Kass leans into his first and most universal vice – beautiful women.

from the album Resurgence
Following closely behind last year's expanded reissue of 2000's 'Grassroots', the New York duo of DJ Spinna & Kryminul present 'Resurgence', a long awaited album of previously unreleased material. Comprising tracks created between 2003 and the present day, 'Resurgence' represents the duo's musical growth during a period where most of us assumed the Jigmastas project was on hold. From start to finish, 'Resurgence' is brimming over with soul thanks to Spinna's distinctively languid boom-bap productions. Rapper Kryminul is on fine form with his clever and witty brand of storytelling, which still stays close to the streets whilst keeping the subject matter varied and eclectic. Storming guest appearances come from Shabaam Saadique and Old World Disorder (Skam, Shadowman Boogie), both familiar names to Jigmastas fans. With the announcement of another brand new album 'Stellar' coming later in 2016, 'Resurgence' is a perfect opportunity to bring yourself up to speed with Jigmastas, just as they prepare to reclaim their rightful place at hip hop's top table.

Kendra Morris "I'm Real (ft. Godforbid)"

Another Onra vs. Wu Camp banger. Tried to keep vibe of the original Method Man song as much as possible here. And instead of extending the track per usual, I added a 'dub reprise' at end using a different version of the Onra beat.
