Thank you for listening.

To Somebody

"BROWN BROWN (Slowed Reverbed)" floats in a syrupy haze — a hypnotic ride through heavy bass, distant melodies, and raw emotion stretched across nearly four minutes. Dark, slow, and vibrating with unspoken stories, it’s music for staring at the ceiling when sleep won’t come.

Artist: Andy Cooper
Title: Bring It To Me/Do The Charlie Brown
Format: Limited 7" Vinyl 
Cat No SWR007
Pre Order Link: http://soundweightrecords.bigcartel.com/

Andy Cooper gas been a member of Underground Hip-Hop mainstay Ugly Duckling since 1993, performing in more than thirty countries while co-producing and arranging critically acclaimed albums like ‘Journey To Anywhere’ and hit songs ‘A Little Samba’ and ‘Turn It Up’.

1. ‘BRING IT TO ME’

Secretly, I’ve always wanted to record a horribly viscous battle-rap in the tradition of Rakim’s ‘Lyrics of Fury’, Kool G. Rap’s ‘Poison’ or Big Daddy Kane’s ‘Set it off’. Being a member of a fairly happy band like Ugly Duckling, my opportunities to scorch the mic with vocal acid were few and far between so, for years, I’d been stockpiling violent metaphors and grizzly similes which I unleashed on ‘Bring it to Me’. To give this track the appropriate intensity, I hooked up a healthy dose of James Brown and dug through my vinyl stash to procure all kinds of explosive hits, breaks, fills and scratches to back my assault. By the time this tune fades out, I’ve commanded armies, dropped incendiary bombs and assassinated world leaders before pulling the plug on my competition!

2. ‘DO THE CHARLIE BROWN’

A while back, Young Einstein and I produced a track that we never used for U.D. so, with Rodney’s permission, I got out my tools and reworked the old instrumental until it became an upbeat homage to my favorite ‘Blockhead’. For whatever reason, I’ve always loved the way ‘Peanuts’ cartoonists animated the kids dancing at various holiday events so, on ‘Do the Charlie Brown’, I was inspired to give them a new groove for their next TV special; I can’t wait to hear Schroeder’s take on this number! My wife Tina helped with the chorus which was nice because, being that the EP is free, I couldn’t really afford to hire background vocalists. Big shout out to my man Vince Guaraldi!


SWR007 - Andy Cooper - Bring It To Me - 7" Vinyl (Pre Order)

"Das Lied kommt mir so bekannt vor!" Dieses Gefühl kennt jeder. Ein häufiger Grund: Samples. Kleine Fragmente oder Loops eines musikalischen Werkes werden in einen anderen Kontext gebracht, so dass sie zu etwas Neuem verschmelzen. Das vertraute Gefühl bleibt. In allen möglichen Genres genutzt, hat sich das Samplen unter anderem in der Hip Hop Szene durchgesetzt. Bereits Mitte der Siebziger Jahre begannen die ersten mit dem rythmischen Sprechgesang zu experimentieren. 

Hip Hop war seitdem immer in der Musikgeschichte präsent und ist aus der subkulturellen Entwicklung der Musikwelt nicht mehr wegzudenken. Viele werden sich an Rapper´s Delight der Sugarhill Gang erinnern, die sich zum Beispiel an dem Song "Good Times" von Chic bedienten, um diesen Klassiker so eingängig zu machen.

Seit nun schon mehr als 25 Jahren befasst sich kein geringerer als DJ Coma von dem aus Aachen stammenden, legendären Mioki DJ Team leidenschaftlich mit dieser Bewegung und allem was dazu gehört.
In sein bisher aufwendigstes Projekt hat der Mann vom Fach viel Recherche, Liebe, Schweiß und Herzblut gesteckt. In einem 60 minütigen Mixtape begleitet er den Hörer in die Hintergründe des Hip Hop. 
Truetape heißt das Neugeborene und ist auch für die Hip-Hop-Muffel unter den Musikliebhabern äußerst hörenswert. Neben ruhigen souligen Parts führt das Truetape seinen Hörer durch einen üppigen Garten aus klassischem Funk, jazzigen Bluenotes, bassigen Breaks & Beats bis hin zu brasilianisch klingenden Volksliedern. 
Einfach gut!


Dj Coma - Truetape (Originals & Raptracks)2016

We've always debated reworking this track because it's such a revered golden era anthem, and we didn't want to ruin a classic! But in the usual Altered Tapes fashion, we've kept true to the original, especially it's bass line and massive drums. The end result is an uptempo breakbeat heater with shades of psychedelic and soul jazz. An instrumental version is also available, as well as a Drumapella DJ tool (if you purchase the whole MAXI SINGLE package).

Pete Rock & CL Smooth - They Reminisce Over You (Altered Tapes Rework) Instrumental

The A side ‘Soul On Top’, is produced by Boca 45 and features New Zealander Louis Baker on vocals. Louis, based in Wellington, N.Z. has an emotive vocal tone that produces shades of Motown-era soul, which earned him a place at the prestigious Red Bull Music Academy in New York, when he was chosen out of 4000 applicants to take one of only 60 places. Currently gaining plaudits internationally for his sublime songwriting that has shades of J Dilla to Sly Stone, he has been touring in Europe as well as many shows and festivals down under. Boca 45 is a Bristolian legend who’s earned a mighty rep for his work with Andy Smith as Dynamo Productions, with Ben Salisbury as Dolman, with Gee Ealey as Malachai alongside his many solo records on various labels. Very much 2 talented artists that are successful in their own right who have found some common ground...

Louis was on tour in Europe in the spring of 2015 and played a show at The Sugar Factory in Amsterdam, whilst Boca was the guest DJ at the Wicked Jazz club night the same night. They end up meeting and get on brilliantly. The following day they reconvene on Red Light Radio, and having both been blown away with each others sets they decide that they must work together. A meeting of minds from different parts of the globe (UK-NZ) comes together in Amsterdam (that can't happen very often). Fast forward a couple of months and they start plotting Soul On Top - Scott makes the music / beats whilst Louis plays guitar, sings & plays bass. The result being an immediate slice of hip hop soul which will work as well on the dance floor as it will on the radio.

The B side features ‘Diegos Theme’, lifted from Boca's 2nd LP Vertigo Sounds which featured amongst other guest vocalists Kelvin Swaby from The Heavy.  D.T is a sampledelic slice of b-boy heaven - Boca say's that it's inspired by his football hero Diego Maradona - ‘I wanted to make a track which would suit his personality as well as being a soundtrack to his many breathtaking goals he scored throughout his career’. A classic slice of Boca and pressed on 45 for the very first time, it’s a lot more than just a lowly B side spin!

BIOGRAPHY

You don't mess around when labeling someone as a musical pioneer; it’s a dangerous path to tread. When it comes to the name DJ Nu-Mark however, it’s a safe bet.
As a Los Angeles native, Producer, Turntablist and member of the legendary Hip-Hop group Jurassic 5, DJ Nu-Mark is considered one of the most innovative on the scene. He continually showcases his expanding taste in music through live sets and dj streams where he displays rare covers, multi-track edits and performs his children’s musical toy set.
Nu-Mark ignited his career releasing Kanye West’s debut production with Chicago native, Grav on Correct Records while simultaneously producing the Jurassic 5 EP circa 1996. Nu caught solo acclaim with the drop of his industry celebrated Blend Crafters EP which featured his timeles cover of John Lennon’s “Imagine” and featured production for MF Doom. Nu’s debut LP, Broken Sunlight revealed his innovations into a jaw dropping collection of heartfelt music featuring Aloe Blacc, Quantic, Large Professor, Bumpy Knuckles, A-Skillz, J-Live
Tiron & Ayomari, and Charles Bradley.
It comes as no surprise when you see the list of coveted stages that Nu-Mark has performed on around the world, including Glastonbury and Coachella. As per his stellar reputation of being one of turntablism and sound design, Nu-Mark has also judged numerous DJ competitions including Red Bull Music Thre3style with Jazzy Jeff, DJ Craze, Skratch Bastid and many more.
You can also add in Nu-Mark's own label – Hot Plate Records, which has released a hoard of production collaborations, including his sought after Run For Cover LP in 2021 featuring Bacao Rhythm & Steel Band, Full Crate, Jungle Fire, The Traffic and more. Nu brought along Pharcyde’s Slimkid3 under the
faction TRDMRK on two albums featuring Del the Funky Homosapien, Diamond D, Darondo, Guilty Simpson, and Murs which shot to number one on the CMJ charts.
Nu-Mark's ongoing “Zodiac Tracks” is further testament to the fact that music is a life blood for this man. With his unwavering adoration of vinyl, the renowned collector pays homage
to pivotal artists by mixing them seamlessly in their respective astrological sign in live Birthday tribute videos. The project has been so successful that, after reaching millions of views, Nu- Mark teamed up with Method Man (Wu-Tang Clan) for an exclusive song to honor all the astrological signs in a song called “Zodiac Killah”.
Nu has a keen eye for musical evolution. Known for his trademark ability to conjure up sounds from the most bizarre of items, including a collection of children’s toys, late night talk show host and producer James Corden enlisted Nu-Mark to take on the role of in-house DJ for the hit TV show –
Drop The Mic.
To date, Nu-Mark has been featured in the critically acclaimed documentaries / motion pictures; Scratch, KeepinTime, Where We’re From, Coachella: The Movie, Rock the Bells, Popstar and MacGrubber. Nu-Mark created original beats and co-scored Tom & Jerry (2021), Battle Of The Year starring Chris Brown and Ride Along 1& 2 staring Ice Cube and Kevin Hart.
Whether it’s behind the decks or a mixing desk, on the silver screen or the TV; Nu-Mark continues to raise the bar with his collaborations and a list of upcoming sample packs. This diverse artist is gearing up to remind us why he is a musical pioneer (in case anyone could forget)!
