Poetik Force- In Due Time Feat. Keon Supreme (Prod. Jansport J)

Nefarious! — Mon, 04 Jan 2010 01:13:10 +0000

Took me a minute to post this track because it looks like this is the only picture of this nigga on the entire internet lmao. Jansport J hit me with this in my email. This is what he had to say:

Waddup World

Here’s the 2nd single from West Covina, CA emcee Poetik Force, produced by yours truly. I’ll also link you to the first single as well just in case you missed it. To refresh your memory, he’s the kid who dropped the first verse on “That Spliff” from our High Power Moves album. His project “Mary Jane LP” is near completion, and sounding pretty damn dope. I’m gonna stop talkin. Here’s the music:

Getting your SONGS posted here.

Now, if you want to get your beats or beat tape posted read the post on TheSoulDojo.com. I mean, I guess it’s still possible to get your beat tape posted here if you hit up one of the other authors, but it is unlikely unless you are like, Jansport J or something.

To get your song/album/whatever posted here email your song MP3 and photos that are at least 590 pixels in width to CosmicSoulsCollective@Gmail.com . Be sure to include your contact info if you want people to actually check out your music. I made the steps to getting posted here a lot more simple than on The Soul Dojo because I’m getting too many wack beats over there (no shots).

I have been holding on to this (gem) for a while now, just felt like I should release it; hopefully get some feedback. Track produced by me (yay!)
I’ve included along with the track, the instrumental, and all three samples that went into the creative process. Please leave a little feedback if you could be so kind. This is a really serious track for me and I hope that some connection can be made by all who listen to this. Enjoy!

Nefarious! Tutorial: Chopping Samples In ReCycle and Using Them In Reason

Here’s my first tutorial. Post what you want tutorials on on the youtube video page and not on here. Be sure to subscribe for future videos because I finally got my new camera so I will be dropping more videos more often. Word.

Exclusive: Fly is Made for Lovers Mix

knowjuander — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 12:50:40 +0000

So I get these requests ALL the time; you know the kind. The kind that I figured a Premo or a Madlib or 9th Wonder would get: “…where you do you get your samples from? Can you hook me up with some dope samples…” I feel like sometimes, much of the art form of making beats is not even in the sample. It’s in the pursuit of something else. You ultimately end up either spending a few dollars on vinyl or you download something just to experience it at face value. You end up with something special. Well that’s the fairy tale take of it. Of course you could always (before you ask) try to find something that you can make totally yours. It has no influence, no bias point of views, and won’t make you feel obligated to do anything other than enjoy the experience of real, soulful music. And even with a point of view as strong as that, I also feel that somethings are so good… they are worth sharing. Some people are going to hear what I hear; other will dismiss the mix as something used to fill up blog space. I feel like what you are about to embark on is beautiful; simply put. Whether you just listen to it while cleaning the crib, or try to use it in place of a very old and very scratched “baby making music” CD, or whether you rip the sound waves into seventy-five samples chopped… you will enjoy what Fly is Made. Check for it at the jump.

Rob Yung – What Happened To The Real?

Nefarious! — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 01:19:49 +0000

New track by Rob Yung. I have to say he impressed me with this one. Shit’s ill. Make sure you check out his website at 1mic1life.com. This is what he had to say about it (in 3rd person LOL!):

This track is written/recorded/engineered by Rob Yung, a New York native MC. Being a major underground hiphop head! In this track he explains his point of view of how things used to be back in the good ol’ days! Now the question is.. What did happen to the real?

Shlohmo – Shlo-Fi EP

Nefarious! — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 00:38:19 +0000

Download it.

What Error Broadcast had to say:

From across the misty hills of San Francisco, we welcome kid Shlohmo with his long-awaited Shlo-Fi EP for release at Error Broadcast. His instant-classic Shlomoshun EP made faces fall earlier this year but this one will boost the cat to a whole new level.

19-years old Shlohmo delivers the soundtrack for the LA aftershow party. His tracks swarm from dirty textures, strange sounds and obscured samples. It’s not Hip Hop what you hear, but the echoes are clearly there: under the blanket the beats are alive and kicking, the compression is awful (as we love it) and from the way Shlohmo arranges his tracks, it is clear what this kid listens to at night.

Solanaceous and surreal music from the point Burial and Fly Lo let off.
