Over several years, to 2019, I re-edited Keith LeBlanc's classic "Major Malfunction" album to make it "full length", according to an imaginary concept in my head.

The full story, in gory detail, is here: https://jrbinks.wordpress.com/2019/12/28/major-malfunction-reimagined/

This is the first time I have made this full length, 2hr 16m version publicly available.  A 2hr edit was featured On The Wire in October 2019: https://otwradio.blogspot.com/2019/10/playlist-26th-october-2019.html

What did Keith think of it?  Well I told him I was doing it, he showed some interested and thanked me for asking his permission, but didn't respond when I sent him the final versions and other commentary.  So I don't know ... and now I never will.

In memory of Keith LeBlanc.

The sHaPeShIfTeRs - 3rd Pin Torture

This is my twenty-seventh entry in The Producers Corner "sample challenge", where everyone is given the same source music from which to sample, and the results are diverse and entertaining. The source this week was Sven Grünberg's 1981 album "Hingus", an almost completely structureless wash of new wave synthesizers. Really there's not much there; it's an entire album of what sound like extended intros to much better Tomita or Vangelis songs. It truly was a "challenge" this week, to sift through and find anything of value. Finally I found ONE piece of music that could legitimately be described as a chord progression, looped just that one sample up, added some reggae accents, drum programming, piano, bassline, organ, and some audio recorded on the streets of Brooklyn yesterday. The end result is an upbeat bouncy reggae synth sound, which I would have thought impossible to pull off until finding that snippet at the end of the album. So for the first time in these challenges, I've got an instrumental that uses only one solitary sample from the source! I don't even know who I am anymore... The mix on this isn't great, but I'm going with it because I was up most of the night finishing this up so I could post it before everyone else finds that one lonely phrase of melody on an otherwise featureless sea of what sounds like a cat sleeping on the keys of a synthesizer. I hope you enjoy the result, and please everyone stay safe and healthy out there!!!

Key Dokie

After decades of recording and touring, and many turbulent ups and downs, Bostonians TYPE 4 are still going strong.  They've never let go of that golden age of hip-hop, still digging through vinyl for musical samples, and digging through life for lyrical stories.  Tommy O'Deed, Matt Reyes & Bill Ierardi make hip-hop for grownups, the old fashioned way: for the love of it.
