#HipHop has officially reached its #50thbirthday/#50thanniversary (August 11, 2023)! 🥳🎊🎉

I actually wasn't planning on making anything for that day and honestly had forgotten it would be this Friday, but I actually had a dream on Monday night. It wasn't a visual one, but instead I was listening to #PublicEnemy's #FightthePower, except in my dream radio, it was being remixed into some kind of #Afrohouse or #Afrobeat kind of groove mixed with #Funk, so as soon as I woke up, I got right into recording mode to capture the idea in my head.

There's no available acapella for the song and extracting it was audibly difficult, but I used my production skills to create a DIY one as best as possible, and played a new layered bass line, added the afro drums and percussion, guitars, and used both the original horns from #HotPantsRoad by #TheJBs & #JamesBrown(which PE sampled for their 1989 classic) but then added my own original horn arrangements, and I finished it just in time for today!

I changed the original opening speech with one from #MalcolmX (from December 1964 in England) that was befitting of the vibe of this week because it definitely reflects what happened in that #MontgomeryBrawl last weekend, and then i ended the track with a quote from #FelaKuti that also fit the energy of it.

With all that's happening around the global #AfricanDiaspora with enough being way beyond enough from the Alabama to #Niger, and with Hip Hop being the outlet created out of struggle in the streets of The Bronx, then throughout all of NYC, and then the rest of the nation and the world, it feels like stars aligned to bring the message of resilience and cultural revolution from the streets and the ghettos (and the council estates, townships, and favelas) to the masses ✊🏾

Dr.Circus 紹介文/
「ロウ・ハウス」という言葉が目立つようになった昨今。日本発のレーベル yygrecから発売された前作12inchの「Dirty Channnel」は、NYのアンダーグラウ ンドハウスの雄Joey Anderson にもプレイされ、BLACKOLYという名のとおり、黒煙の如くその存在を国内外の現行ハウスリスナーへアピールした。そして同レーベルから発信される2作目は、さらに危険性を増した全10曲からなるミニマル・ロウ・ハウスアルバムとなっている。 サンプリングの文化を継承し、MPC 2000XLから叩きだされる硬質でタイトなグルーヴは、ハウスファンのみならずヒップホップやダウン・ビート、そしてダブ・パンクとも紙一重に共鳴しつづけ、現行アンダーグラウンドや次世代への示唆に富んだ内容となっている。

BLACKOLY profile/
DJ、サウンドプロデューサー。2014年にyygrecよりリリースした12inch「Dirty Channel」が国内外問わず様々なDJにプレイされハウスらしからぬ重くスモーキーな次世代的ローグルーヴで異彩を放ちその名を知られるようになる。ダウンビート、アブストラクトHIPHOPをルーツに持ち、それら重く煙たいビートが同時に併せ持つ美しくミニマルな質感をハウスにも見出しハウストラック制作を開始する。過去数々のHIPHOPビートを作り出してきた愛機MPC2000XLを中心に現在のハウ ストラックも制作しそれらバックグラウンドが相まって彼独自なビートに仕上がっている。現在はトラック制作と並行して都内を中心に各地重要パーティーにてライブも展開。
