SMKA AND THE NOTES MUSIC GROUP- THE DUB BELOW

OutKast meets dubstep? Don’t mind if we do! The Atlanta duo is one of my favorite rap groups of all time,  so I’m always down to explore adaptations of their classics. Music collective SMKA and The Notes Music Group joined forces for this dubstep compilation of OutKast material.  Not exactly the kind of music you’re used to hearing Big Boi and Andre 300 rhyme over,  and it’s hard to wrap your brain around because their production always hits the nail on the head. But don’t compare the two. The Dub Below is pretty dope on its own! Enjoy.

Brothers Hank Shocklee and Keith Shocklee, better known to those that are up on thanks as The Bomb Squad, legendary production duo behind all of your Public Enemy THAT’S-MY-JOINT-ers, come beyond correct with their latest Bomb Squad Mix. Just a heads up to those expecting to hear sample-heavy, 808-slammin’, honey-go-get-my-neckbrace-out-the-attic-and-bring-me-an-icy-hot-pad beats, this ain’t it. After their P.E. days the Shocklee boys…err…grown ass men have been getting their fingers and samplers dirty with drum n’ bass, electronic, dubstep, and what have you. But please believe me, this shit still knocks. Hard. Almost too hard. I’m almost certain you’ll dig this enough to want the first four installments that they’ve  dropped over the last couple of years, so here are the links for them here, here, here, annnnnd here. Now gon’ head and get your Golden Inferno on!

DJG & HEADHUNTER – PRESSURE / SPACE CAKES

Proud to announce another heavyweight release from the homie and multi-talented DJG along side Headhunter. The a-side, Pressure, is a signature piece with progressive rhythms strung on haunting vocals and accompanied by a commanding bassline that’s at home in your headphones or on a sweaty dancefloor. The collaboration on the flip, Space Cakes, is a much dirtier tune, and when I say dirty, I mean the bass is grindy, the low-end wants to suck you in, and the vibe is mad thick. Out now, released on Wheel & Deal Records. Peep the bizniz below.

MACHINE GUN FUNK 4/30 SAN JOSE

For folks living in the South Bay who want their fix of Drum&Bass, Dubstep, and tricked out sounds come to Machine Gun Funk. This party is brought to you by The Clandestine Crew and myself for those people who are tired of the same ol’ same in San Jose.

Our last party with producers DJG and Antiserum was off the hook! So we got the green light to have another one!

This time we got our boy Goldenchyld (The Bangerz/Music Machine) to rock a special set chocked full of exclusive tunes. Don’t be caught sleeping.

And we have the spectacular Oakland producer Blackheart in the house to kill the evening with big skanin’ tunes!

It’s free, so I hope to see y’all there!
