Goodness gracious this is a good album. It reminds me of how terrible my taste was when I would buy albums for the one song I was familiar with. This is too good. Maybe not literally, but its really nice to listen to. Ranging from more trip hoppy tunes to straight up hip hop with an MC on top, who incidentally is not listed (maybe its broken?) (no pun intended?). Both of these are off his album Message in a Bottle. The whole album has a kind of ambient vibe to it too setting up a nice atmosphere for legit beats. I loveeee cold winter night.
also we wrecked tahona for all the readers here in boulder.
time for some shameless self promotion-
First, BOMBSKWAD will be spinning at the Tahona Tequila Bistro on Pearl Street next Friday (1/14/11) with Fade to Grey and DJ Goodie! So, please come out and show some love it’s going to be a blast. Join the facebook group too.
Next, check the bombskwad soundcloud that I have hijacked as my own now. It’s full of half finished beats and audio doodles. I have been producing with Live since October and I messed around with an MPC1000 before that- I am far from having anything polished, but they can give you an idea of the sound I am trying to create- enjoy:
Keep it fresh and don’t forget the funky dubs:
SBTRKT w/ Jessie Wares: Nervous (Dub)
Untold: Never Went Away
Pursuit Grooves: Mr Softee
Skream: Rollin’ Kicks
Ramadanman:Carla
Quantum Soul(Ruckspin rmx):Long Time (Ruckspin Remix)
ENJOY!
Hello again, it’s been way too damn long since my last post! So, in an effort to make up for lost time I’m giving you a big grab bag of some choice picks. Enjoy!
First Up! TRUTH and their EP, Stranger Than Fiction, that was released earlier this month on Skream’s label, Disfigured Dubz. The whole EP is great with a nice variance in sound between the tracks, while maintaing an ominous atmosphere throughout. Their track, ‘Bubba Ho Step’, is a deep, dark banger that is just pumping with energy. Checkit:Bubba Ho Step
Next on the list is DJG. I recently had the distinct pleasure of seeing DJG open for N-Type at the Bluebird Theater in Denver and needless to say I was very impressed. Woe is the listener who lacks a subwoofer and that is unfortunate for DJG because he is surely a master of the subsonic frequencies, an accomplishment made apparent many times over last Friday at the Bluebird. DJG is one of my favorite producers- the whole arrangement and energy of his tracks are just on point every time. Recently, he released a single ‘Time is the Fire’- Here is Time Is The Fire
For a label that has only been around for a year, Grizzly has really been building up an awesome catalog. To explain the sound of the label best I will just quote Sinden, the founder, “As far as music policies go, those went out the window a long way back! I can only say that the common ground between each release is a shared enthusiasm. If I get excited about it, it’s a Grizzly record. I’ve never been one to get bogged down in genres, the best stuff is always the grey area tracks that don’t fall anywhere.[...] A producer friend summed it up very concisely the other week ‘its just quality and fun bass music’. Thats it!!!!” So enjoy the title tracks from this years releases:
Midnight Marauder-Sinden & SBTRKT
Chicken Lover (feat. Toni Toni Lee)-Bassanova
J-Wow, from Buraka Som Sistema, released his solo EP on Mad Decent this year and the title track is fuckin bangin! Definitely gets the bodies moving. Listen! O Dedo
Switching gears into some micro.house with Ark! His album, Arkpocalypse Now, was released this year on Perlon and the thing is chalked full with some low key grooves. Been playing this on repeat for the past couple days, definitely need to play these back out on the playa.
Sugar Of Brain (Featuring Lippie)
Finally, a couple selects from Jimmy Edgar’s new album, XXX. I first heard of Jimmy just earlier in the week when Skream posted the track ‘Physical Motion’ on his Facebook and I immediately started listening to more. Hailing from Detroit, Jimmy Edgar has been DJing raves since he was fifteen. While XXX isn’t exactly a Rave album, actually it’s not at all really, it is full of Prince-esque grooves and an ambiance of late nights and strip clubs.

Hello hello hello hello hello. HAPPY FIVE DAYS AFTER THANKSGIVING!!!
LISTEN TO THIS MUSIC GOOGOGOGO.
these are all tracks off The Moon Comes Closer – a compilation of a buuunch of dope producers. It’s supposed to be telling a story about a russian girl who wants to go to the moon or something like that. Real good listen. All tracks individually are hype and played through it’s really good too. Lotso dope names like Juj, fLako and tokyodawn cats portformat and comfortfit.
Andy Kayes – Invisible (Mr Cooper Remix)
Abnormal – Gang Starrs From Another World
<3
also small comic diatribe- Anyone read love and rockets? Supposed to be one of those iconic books that everyone loves. Just kinda weird to me. ”My Mama just talks that way. i don’t think your wife put the worms in your taco, really. ” “You don’t know her” – Love and Rockets.
