The Music Industry
Again nahright supply me with the next installment in the run up to Termanology's 2008 LP. Remix to 'The Music Industry', Ft. Consequence, Akrobatik, Royce da 59 and Crooked I). All of them deliver. And I like Omarion.
MP3: Termanology - Music Industry (Remix) (Ft. Consequence, Crooked I, Akrobatik and Royce Da 59)
Production on the new Lp;
His first album is sizing up to be a coming-out party of sorts for the hard working talent. This week, the emcee, who now lives in The Bronx, revealed his production lineup for the yet untitled "debut" album, after a slew of street releases. DJ Premier, Nottz, Large Professor, Showbiz, The Alchemist, Pete Rock and Buckwild are among those confirmed. "It's looking classic with the producer lineup, I wanted it to be like if as far as the beats are hot then all the pressure falls on me, so as long as I rip it then there it is, I like the pressure so it has to live up to the music that the producers done prior," Termanology told Pyroradio alongside Cormega.
Gravious 2008 Mixtape: Pt. 1
On the strength (beauty) of 'Temple Ball' I found myself hitting Gravious' myspace one night. . It was there that I found this seamless mix up of tunes from his back catalog. . Beautifully pieced together, with randomly placed vocal samples that aid in bridging any gaps that appear along the way. It's been my bedtime listening for the last week. It's that nice.
What's better is that there is a Pt.2 on the way. . with a whole bunch of cuts that are yet to see the light of day. More news on that soon.

Whats It Gonna Be?
H 'Two' O (Ft. Platnum) - Whats It Gonna Be?
As ever we are always switching the focus up on here. .'Heartbroken' has opened up a whole lot of interest in the bassline arena. . which is why I think we'l be seeing a whole lot of tunes like this in '08.
Available to download on 11th Feb. .
It's budget. . and remember the underground is still where it remains

Fidget House wasn't it. . .
Sometime back in 07 I swore to myself that I wouldn't get sucked in by all this jacking house stuff. I stuck to it for a few months. Now sometime in 08, Sinden & Monte Cristal have got me back on it. The usual treatment with a bit more synth'sss than we're used too. Waiting on the estelle album too. . Her year.
MP3: Estelle - Wait A Minute (Just A touch) (Sinden & Count of Monte Cristal Remix)
I'm out. . got myself a stats exam tomorrow. .

Unique
Atouba, the debut album from Ntjamrosie. The little taster we got in last year only hinted at the beauty of a project like this. Nelson & Djosa again on production prove they are not one trick pony's. . each beat as fresh as the last, and totally keeping in step with the direction of the album. Provided with the perfect bed, she truly blossoms.. Regardless of the language of delivery, be it Bulu, English or even French, you can always be 100% sure that her passion will more than comfortably survive the translation.
Not trying to be dramatic, but this is exactly what I hoped it would be. .
Best thing is that its out tomorrow. . Uk heads. . Juno. For a list of other distributors, here.
And as with all things appletree, there will be a huge party to celebrate. . So on the off chance that I have any dutch readers.. apart from Nalden (See Sidebar).. here are the details. . And that text in the bottom right hand corner.. FREE ENTRANCE - So all you'd have to pay is the flight.

Kanye's Back. . .
From his blog...
When I was in Europe I would play this game for hours and hours... it helped me zone out. Everybody would get envolved... Derrick Dudley (Common's manager) and Consequence were the best other than me... I beat Lexi... Don C beat Jay... Tony Williams beat Common... but every now and then people would speak of this legendary connect 4 champion........... BEYONCE!!! I had 2 play her!...so last night at Jay's new 40/40 club in Las Vegas (which is sidebar, crazy big w/ 24krt gold flooring, Black Jack tables, $500 slot machines,the biggest projection screen in the universe and the best turkey burgers I've ever had in my life) she beat me 9 times in a row! (and I didn't even spaz lol) here's a photo of the only game I won!
Ha.

TRG Afterhours Studio Mix December 07
Happy new year.... hope that you all get what you want from 2008. I don't really feel like recapping 2007 in any shape or form, it was an incredible year for music regardless of genre. . But, although there has been a temporary lull over the festive period, things are about to take off again.. And I'd personally much rather concentrate on that.
So, 2007 was supposed to be Dubsteps year of glory. . Possibly. Maybe it will leap even higher in 2008. .
TRG, a producer-stroke-dj I am becoming very fond of, closed the year off with this mix - don't be fooled, while many of Dub's big names are missing from the tracklist. . names on it are of those who are sure to be pushing the boundaries over the next year. Not to say the big guns won't be of course.
Specifically enjoy the last few tracks.. some beautiful interplay between Dj TRG and another new favourite of mine, Martyn. Both will be pressing new tracks in 08. . make sure you don't miss them, by keeping your eyes on their spaces.
Lastly, enjoy the music.
TL:
1. Untold - Kingdom (Hessle Audio)
2. Mike Lennon - When Science Fails [Hektagon remix](Z Audio)
3. TRG & Dub U - Losing Marbles [2562 remix] (Hotflush)
4. Randomer - Nothing Left (dub)
5. Goldfinger - Program 5 (dub)
6. 2562 - Resistance Dub (dub)
7. Hektagon - Running Thru [Elemental remix] (Audio Freaks)
8. DZ - Break It Down (dub)
9. Reso - Spooky (dub)
10.Marchmellow - Supakat Dub (dub)
11.Clouds - Under The Dancing Feet (Argon)

If you like your dubstep bass before brains. . I'm not on the same tip. So you may be disappointed. A deep tune is good, but all the ones showcased in this are deep AND artistically so.
