Beat Machine - The Lesson
lyrics by Kevin Moore aka:Spankalicious

"I'd like to teach a lesson, about deception.
And by the end of this you might just be confessing.
Because the subject matter, it's a bit touchy.
Alot of you like to tell your friends 
"Hey Bro, trust me"

But that's the thing about the words that come up out ya mouth.
That's supposed to be your word, what the fuck you're about.
So if you think your funny passing off that bullshit...
Making money off the greed that makes the people sick....

I'm calling you out here, right now.
The Bunk Police and Dance safe will show you how
if the shit turns yellow, I'm sorry but it's fake.
But if it fizzles purple/black make no mistake.

Now I know the money makes you feel BIG.
Smoke whatever you want, buy some toys for the kids.
Spending money on material things that you wanted
now you can't pay back what your homeboy fronted!

Greedy motherfuckers, your stealing all the money.
Putting fake drugs into good kids, and thinking that it's funny.
I'm tired of seeing kids in the woods floppin' out
with their eyes rolled back, straight foaming at the mouth!

The lesson that I'm trying to teach you,
there's some shady people here that only came to cheat you.
If he doesn't have a test kit to prove his shit is real
take those wings off his hat and tell him "Learn how to deal!"

The lesson that I'm trying to teach you,
there's some shady people here that only came to cheat you.
If you don't have a test kit to prove your shit is real,
you need to STOP KILLING KIDS with these FAKE ASS PILLS!"

ill-esha - Only Fair (Freddy Todd Remix)

First tune on my new release on bandcamp featuring Thriftworks, kLL sMTH, Robotic Pirate Monkey, & Samples. Grab the entire release for free or donation here: https://freddytodd.bandcamp.com/album/the-collabo-series-vol-1

"Welcome to the first volume of "The Collabo Series", a collaborative effort between me and some of my closest homies, colleagues, and comrades. Each of these tracks were made in only a couple of days during random time off from shows on tour, in completely different locations, at completely different times, with completely different genres and artists (besides myself, although one could argue I was a completely different self at each of these sessions, but, I digress). Thriftworks and I sat down at his chill studio in Berkeley, CA and ended up sampling his cabinet hinges and a music box for our tune in the not so distant past, kLL sMTH and I in his heady paulo santo rinsed studio in Boulder, CO, Robotic Pirate Monkey also in their studio in Boulder, CO with a beautifully hazy view of the Rockies, and Samples at Mikey Fisher's studio in the tenderloin of San Francisco, with Samples collaboration being the oldest, written in early 2010 when we were both booked together at our first show in California, with the other three written in the past year or so."

It’s Scour Records’ one year anniversary! Twelve months ago we released Scour Cream Volume 01, so to mark the occasion we thought we’d hold a Hunger Games-type celebration, unfortunately none of us are very good with weapons or murder or being murdered. An Olympics style celebration seemed a little over the top, It’s A Knock Out was on the cards but our budget ran out after making one large shoe for the Bulgarians. So we’ve scaled it down, come round to ours and have a proper party, old school fancy dress styleeee!

All the party games are prepped - pass the parcel, pin the tail on the donkey, kiss chase, naked twister, finger the angry fox, trampoline darts on poppers, all the big ones! The party sideboard is prepared! Vimto for the gents, cherryade for the ladies, Babycham for the hardcore fetishists. Bombay mix, cocktail sausages, cheese and pineapple, vol-au-vants (hopefully filled with whatever made Kerry Katona go all fruity) Anything missing, hmmmm….of course! An assortment of nuts and some party tunes! All wrapped up in a free 4 track goody bag for each and every one of you to take home!

Father Funk rocks out the bubble perm and comes strutting through the front door like a funky white brother. Who’s he come as? Mika? Kevin Keegan? No silly! He’s come as Leo Sayer!

Leo fires a bazooka in through the porch and shoots two AK47’s like he’s trying to kill every mother in the room. Apparently he likes his men like he likes his coffee (with milk and two sugars) Pimpin’!

Is that Prince tucking into the Jelly and Ice Cream? ha! Yes! It’s Warp9! Top costume!, really would prefer it if you didn’t try and make our doves cry though…they really don’t like to see your starfish impression…

The Phunk Junkies need no encouragement to crack the pearls out, before you can say ’Sir Very Elton of John’ they’ll be in a wig and heels, have the lippy on and be sashaying down the hall towards the toilet. RuPaul? Lilly Savage? Oh hell no, those legs can only belong to Dame Shirley Bassey.

Hang on a sec, sorry about this….LEO! GET YOUR FINGER OUT OF THE FOX!! it’s not time yet! Father! Leave the Phunk Junkies alone, it’s not that kind of party! Put the guns down! Oh for God’s sake!
 
Take your goody bag and go! We need a plunger, a SWAT team and a vet, pronto!

TRAP CITY SESSIONS feat UltraViolet: GET HIGH EDITION

Hot on the heels of his own success with the trio Deep City Culture and their #1 Addictech release of Take It Off, San Francisco's own My Pet Monster is comin' out swingin' with his solo debut New Age Gangster. Oh yes, that pun was very much intended as will become crystal when you get a taste of all the energy and flavor that made this era the most fun the get down to since your grandparents were kids. Swing-Hop brings the party people together like no other music can with that old time sound and just the right wobble and squelch to make your feet stomp. Mixing new school jive with the freshest in off-beat technique, New Age Gangster will have you bouncing to the floor with smiles big enough for a 1930's billboard.

Get ready to turn those festival floors into an old school dance party because between My Pet Monster and his Consigliere's you've got the ammunition for any situation right here in one EP. Denver's Samples, the OG of block rockin' Glitch-Hop has your meat covered with his signature busted up, grungy take on this classic style, Defunk shows you what Canadian Glitch-Hop is all about with his usual mastery of funk, soul and modern bass mixed with perfect precision and finally, you won't be in Kansas anymore when Timmy Tutone shows you one of the most masterful manipulations of 808 elements and rich soul exploring a world of indescribable beauty. Redefining the word, a New Age Gangster is all about bringing people together and My Pet Monster is here to show you how.

Westwood is proud to present Kingfisha Remixed, a collaboration between Westwood Recordings and Australian dub/reggae sensation, Kingfisha.

With a love for heavy Jamaican-inspired rhythms and a strong sense of melody and songcraft, Kingfisha’s music is irresistibly soulful. Having firmly cemented their position as one of Australia's finest dub/reggae acts, the 6-piece band has joined forces with Westwood Recordings to produce a remix EP of their favourite selections from their self-titled 2012 album.

Over two years since it’s release, their debut album has won over fans around the world, picking up multiple awards and being added to full rotation on national radio stations such as Australia’s Triple J. Now, in May 2015, their album will take on a new life with Westwood Recordings calling upon some of their leading electronic music producers around the globe to re-imagine the bands intelligent lyrics and signature musicianship - breathing new life into their songs with the addition of a heavy electronic backbone.

The 2015 Kingfisha Remixed EP features remixes from:
Ed Solo (UK), The Funk Hunters (CA), JPOD (CA), Odjbox (UK), Crazy Daylight (AUS), Beat Fatigue (NL), and Flavours (CA).

Kingfisha Remixed

Kingfisha - Let You Know (Flavours Remix)

Just landed in Winnipeg! Verrrrry excited to play a 45 set tonight at The Goodwill, and judge the Red Bull Thre3Style Canadian national finals this weekend with Z-Trip, Thugli, Hedspin, and Ali Shaheed Muhammad (how about that for a line-up!?). Seriously. 

Accordingly, today's #TBT SoundCloud post is dedicated to my Winnipeg homies Pip Skid and John Smith, who worked on this song from an incredibly fun project. 10 years ago this month (!), we released a CD & 12" on my own label, First Things First. "Taking Care Of Business" was the product of a 2-and-a-half week recording session in Halifax, based around a few shows in Eastern Canada. At the time, I had been DJing for Pip after he moved out to Halifax and I was a big fan of not only his music but his work ethic and focus. I was also a big fan of the label that he was a part of (Peanuts & Corn, shoutout to mcenroe - I still owe you something for that Bob James record you sent me), and in particular rapper John Smith, who I thought was a great balance of tough and witty, and that I had recently had rap on one of my mixtapes. They had already done an album together as Hip-Hop Wieners and I liked their chemistry, so I set out to make a DJ-centric rap album from the ground up - from beginning to end.

Featured here is the 'DJ Theme' song "Murphy's Law" (featuring Sleep) to my Soundcloud as an audio accompaniment to this post. It's kinda like my version of 'Ugly People Be Quiet' or 'Alladin's On A Rampage' - just not as classic. 

In retrospect, the whole project was an amazing experience. I learned so much about how the business works: physical production, distribution, promo, radio, video, licensing, budgeting, touring -- many lessons which influenced how I approach my career to this day. I'm still very proud of the music that we made together, and it was an experience that I am very happy I went through when I did. It was a good primer for handling things to come. This is turning into a bit of an 'acceptance speech', which I normally detest and dismiss as self-indulgent, but I'm on a roll here and reminiscing while 20,000 feet above Thunder Bay, so bear with me.

Thank you to: Greymatter (who helped engineer the album), Sleep (who recorded vocals and toured with us during the making of this project), Gordski & Jorun Bombay (who contributed 3 beats each to the project), mcenroe (who added a remix on the 12"), Kunga219 & Tachichi (both featured on 'Get Nice'), Jason Lapeyre (who made the 'I Ain't Lazy' & 'Collecting Empties' videos for next to nothing -- we made the latter for the cost of the returned beer bottles in the video), Yosuke (who released the album in Japan), my manager Mike D, Troy Neilson (who helped it chart with radio promo), and ______ (who I am surely forgetting... like I said, 10 years). I asked a lot of favours and patience in making something like this happen, and for your help I am grateful. And of course to Pip & Smitty: if an internet post is a remotely relevant 'thank you', well, thank you. Too many stories to commit to this touch screen right now, and I'm thankful for all of them. Even that awful place I made us stay in Saint John, and running out of gas halfway between Fredericton and Moncton. I'll stop. 

I recently saw this album pop up for download on one of those blogspots with every-album-your-HD-can-handle on it. I'm not sure if it's still up there... those things disappear faster than politicians' promises after election, but give it a Google. The positive, well thought out review encouraging people to check it out made me happy, in all of it's friendly pirating intent. Maybe it will convince you to check it out, and if so, by all means grab it. And if you want physical copies of either the CD or 12" for yourself, I've got a few left over at my online store which you can reach via skratchbastid.com. 

And that's about it. I mean, there's more, but we can rap about it when I see you in The Peg this weekend. Beers on me. 

Murphy's Law (f/ Pip Skid, John Smith & Sleep)(2005)

Proud to announce the release of my project with the Afiara Quartet entitled "Spin Cycle". This project was produced over the last 8 months in collaboration with 4 Canadian composers (Laura Silberberg, Dinuk Wijeratne, Kevin Lau, Rob Teehan). Here's how it worked:

Phase 1: 4 composers wrote 4 original pieces for the Afiara String Quartet. Pieces were recorded.

Phase 2: Skratch Bastid remixed each of the pieces, using select parts that were replayed by the string quartet, sampled, and scratched. 

Phase 3: The 4 composers remixed the remixes by writing new pieces based on the remix. Skratch Bastid & Afiara Quartet performed these pieces live and recorded them. 

This track is Phase 3 of Laura Silberberg's piece, titled "Dirty Laundry - Heavy Load".

Check out our feature pieces and interview (30 mins) on CBC Radio's "Q": http://www.cbc.ca/radio/q/schedule-for-monday-may-11-2015-1.3066925/skratch-bastid-and-the-afiara-quartet-blend-scratch-and-strings-1.3068985

Available via purchase link below the above waveform.

We premiered the project May 23rd at the 21c Music Festival at Toronto's Royal Conservatory of Music in Koerner Hall.

"Soul Visions" is a collaborative album by The Human Experience and Rising Appalachia.

Name Your Price for the album here: http://thehumanexperience.bandcamp.com/releases

“Rising Appalachia" is a genre-bending force of sound that uses vocal harmony, traditional instrumentation, roots music, lyrical prowess and diverse artistic collaborations to defy cultural clichés and ignite musical rebellion...

“The Human Experience” is David Block’s principal project as a live 
electronic composer, multi-instrumentalist, producer. Listeners 
experience a delicious symphonic blend of prismatic soundscapes and
sultry beats.

Rising Appalachia and The Human Experience met many years ago on the shores of southern India. After spearheading each of their own unique musical paths, they have joined forces to birth a soulful new electro/acoustic collaboration, merging sounds from around the world in an elaborate artistic love-child of beats, voice, banjo and bass. "Soul Visions" is their first step in the long journey of bringing together electronic music and soul, folk and ballads, bass rhythms and swamp-womp in an effort to bridge worlds through aural exploration. "Soul Visions" speaks to the lover and the dance floor, the ritual holder and the song collector and the visionary and the shadow-worker... bringing deep root sounds into a highly mechanical world.

What could easily be called the United States ‘Mecca’ of Bass Music at the time, My Pet Monster bared witness to the early soundscapes that painted the walls of dimly lit warehouses and nightclubs with their raw and gritty forms throughout the West Coast in the late 2000s. He had a front row seat to witness pioneers of the genre; who laid the foundation for not only his knowledge but also his understanding of the craftsmanship involved. Through this baptism arose an artist driven by passion not only to create immersive music and performances but also a commitment to constant experimentation and artistic growth.

Hailing originally from Kansas City where he now resides, My Pet Monster is a resident DJ, producer, engineer, and educator. The artist, whose real name is Ryan Summers, began songwriting at an early age but didn’t discover electronic music until his early-twenties. His love for punk and metal quickly morphed into an obsession for grimey bass lines and nasty beats. After earning dual degrees in Business and Music from Santa Clara University, he pursued certification in Audio Engineering and Music Production at Pyramind which solidified his technical knowledge and expertise in the field.

Over the years, My Pet Monster has crossed multiple genres, putting his new school spin on many classic eras of American music such as jazz, blues, swing, funk, hip hop, and soul. After returning from a recent hiatus, he has since reconnected with his roots to create and perform darker, more provocative Experimental Bass music. What has rang true throughout all of his creations is to expect the unexpected.

My Pet Monster has musical releases on many established record labels such as Westwood Recordings, Adapted Records, Street Ritual, and MalLabel Music (to name a few) and has earned critical acclaim with multiple singles charting on the Beatport TOP 100. 

His contributions to the music scene have not gone unnoticed, as evidenced by winning the 2012 San Francisco RAW Musician of the Year Award with his former music collective, Deep City Culture, and receiving a 2018 preliminary co-nomination with Grid Division from the Television Academy for Outstanding Original Main Title Theme Music for their work on 'Ryan Hansen Solves Crimes on Television'.

His touring career has taken him across the continental US, performing at renowned music festivals like Electric Forest, Burning Man, Hardly Strictly Bluegrass, Roaring City, The Pirate Party, How Weird Street Faire, The Edwardian Ball, San Diego Comic Con, Emissions, Theatre Bizarre, and BottleRock. 

He has shared stages with music icons such as Diplo, DJ Shadow, Del The Funky Homosapien, Dan The Automator, Beats Antique, G Jones, Ganja White Night, The Funk Hunters, Krafty Kuts, Justin Martin, DJ Icey, Big Gigantic, Tsuruda, Dirt Monkey, Charles The First, Yheti, ill.Gates, Defunk, Fort Knox Five, SoDown, Stylust, Minnesota, Buku, LSDREAM, The Polish Ambassador, and many more.
