TIMELESS: SUITE FOR MA DUKES PRE-ORDER

On March 30th  Mochilla will release their Timeless DVD box set  to the world. This three DVD package documents (in Mochilla fashion) three individual concerts by legendary composers and producers of some of the finest music our generation has heard. Their influence has been felt by all walks of popular music, from Hip Hop to Funk and continue to inspire generation after generation.

One of the concerts mentioned was the seminal Suite For Ma Dukes conducted by Miguel Atwood-Ferguson and his 60 piece orchestra playing original arrangements from the catalogue of the late J Dilla.

The good folks at Mochilla made the track “Angel” (Dwele and the Suite For Ma Dukes Orchestra) downloadable for you all. You can cop the track here.

Pre-order this box set now! Only 4000 were numbered and made, including tons of extras for the dedicated fan.

DJ EKOGIRL – SOULIFE

My homie DJ EkoGirl made a nice mix of soulful goodness that y’all need to DL. In her own words…

Soulife is the nuSoul sound I’m most well-known for at a residency called Kiss.?some well-known heavy hitters in there with new tracks: Alicia, Sade ~ some really fly remixes: Stardust, Erykah+Bisope, Bugz ~ some super amazing new music from: Electric Wire Hustle, Fat Freddy’s drop ~ and then a lot of unfamiliar staples that have been in my soul crates for a few years to round it out.it definitely could use some woofer-love for the low end on the dubstep at the front.I hope you like it too.. but really.. I do. and that’s why I do it. It’s SUCH a pleasure to share it with you.

love,

Ekogirl

VIDEO: SLUM VILLAGE – ACTIN NORMAL

This shit makes me sad. This seems to be the last video that SV shot before Baatin’s passing. It’s directed by Dwele and the song is produced by Karriem Riggins. Shouts to Scrapdirty for the link up. Rise In Power Baatin and tell Dilla Blind I says what up!
