Total Science - Wasting Time Feat. Phonte and Darien Brockington

Although I dig the single Soul Patrol with MC Conrad A LOT. I wasn’t planing on coping their new album until I heard they were including some of their non-dnb hip hop/nu jazz productions...

DJ Shadow - Enuff Feat. Q Tip & Lateef The Truth Speaker

I got my hands on a copy of the new DJ Shadow album which is about to drop and most of you are going to hate it.

Its about half hyphy yay area crunk bidnazzz and half Private Press...

DJ Shadow - Enuff Feat. Q Tip & Lateef The Truth Speaker

Some of my other favorites on the album are You Made It with Chris James of Stateless and the synth heavy durty durty cut with David Banner called Seein Thangs...

I gotta respect any artist not afraid to grow, explore and not bother to worry about alienating "fans". Some will fall along the way, but tastes change too ya know...

Jona - Someone Put The Light On (Claude VonStroke Fry Like An Eagle Mix)

Damn, I miss me some proper San Francisco house music bidnazzz... this east coast shizzle aint doin' it for me... here is a joint that was one of my favs during WMC back in March. I heard it a couple times around town including Justin Martin's set during Buzzin' Fly... This and that Papa Chango (Justin's track) were definately two of the highlights.

So far its neck and neck... Ill keep you up to date... but I think their about to crack under the bassbin pressure...

Decoder - Hacked

After this last trip to SF I picked up the rest of my music collectionmy; last pieces of vinyl and cds and brought it all back home to Miami. So this past weekend I did some digging through tracks and tapes some of which I haven't heard in 10 years...

Decoder - Hacked
from Dissected (Hardleaders) 1998

Released in 98 when jazz influenced dnb was in its prime and Roni Size and EZ Rollers were 0wning my earholes... Dissected is a gem and is still one my favorite DnB albums... (he even coproduced another Jazz n Bass classic... Peshay’s Miles From Home) Not only is Dissected a cohesive artist album but it also trades the usual bass synths for sampled guitar licks. Something which, well just doesnt happen much anymore. Decoder along with Substance and vocalist Sian Evans went on to form Kosheen and has since released 2 albums (the first one is DOOOPE...) to some commercial success... Pick that up.

Hacked is the only non-dnb track on Dissected.

Enjoy.

sum uptempo shizzle.

Justin Martin & Sammy D Feat. Fernando Rivera - The Legend of Papa Chango

Well here is another Yay Area post...

Talked to Justin Martin (Buzzin’ Fly) at the Andy Caldwell release party at Darkroom. WHAT A SHITHOLE VENUE. Its like The Top but with crappier sound a larger space and less shit and piss on the floor. Totally the kind of place I want to listen to great music in. Ugh.

Anyway. Before I moved to SF Sammy D was telling me about a track they just finished and were debuting at WMC… but never heard anything else about it. Maybe, Justin played it at Buzzin’ Fly. I don’t remember much about that week. Anyway… Its been rinsed out nearly every week at Aquabooty since then… and I love it and everyone loves it. Even my mom loves it. Then again, shes really into Yanni, tambien.

Its even got that damn bird sound that you used to always hear in the early Good Looking stuff.

Justin Martin & Sammy D Feat. Fernando Rivera - The Legend Of Papa Chango

Good shiz. Love the pads.

One Self is playing at Bottom of the Hill on Saturday… don’t miss this show… Its DJ Vadim’s new crew featuring hecka talented MC… Yarah Bravo. She will fit right in here in Cloud City.

Tonight BOCA with J Boogie / Rueben (Browntempo)… Yam Who? @ Pink later.

Let the debauched Memorial Celebration begin.

Cough.

Anthony B - Raid Di Barn

Went to a bbq at Oasis in Oakland on saturday... wait?! where was the bbq? there wasnt any bbq there? Anyway, Rueben (Browntempo) played and a bunch of other cats. Mostly, hip hop (the non-miami "real" kind), R&B, soul, dancehall, reggae, etc... proper Bay Area music, complimented by proper East Bay women with "boomin' systems".

Sunday, the music was just as good at Milk (back back back again) at my old weekly neighborhood stomping ground. Ras Cue, Tom Thump and some other white people represented.

Anyway here is one of the jawns I trainspotted in Oaktown.

Anthony B - Raid Di Barn
