JON LORENZO – RENEGADE SOUND

Hometown Heroes own Jon Lorenzo breaks from behind the cobwebs to give us a super energetic fully charged mix that is guaranteed to keep you moving & grooving from the beginning to the end.

Upbeat rap & oldschool music you don’t normally hear mixed together. Unreleased (extended) version of my hip hop/electro mix from January 2009.

Applications used: ProTools and Serato

I’ll say! He even threw yours truly on there rockin over the Mr.Oizo Flat Beat (I seriously have no recollection of this what so ever) Anyways… it’s a dope mix that you should ALL have while you work out, since you ALL are in the gyms going IN since you ALL made your New Years Resolutions right? hahahaha I keed. I keed. Peep tho…

NO KNOWS DOPE | AUGUST 20X

Okay so, thus far we have had NKD’s on some str8 up heat to kick start it all, then Dilla, then Beats, then Love , then Stereolab, then Portishead, then we had last months double NKD for Stevie & for this month I had to go with my man Busa Busss!! So many people sleep on Busta Rhymes! I never see him any ANNNNNNNNNNNYBODYS top 10 or top 20 for that matter. I had to dead that by doing a No Knows Busta. 60 pinche tracks! & even THAT was narrowed down. These are just my all time favorite Busta songs of all time. The others will be saved for a sequel somewhere down the road, but for now I think these will suffice. If you’ve always thought like me… then this is FOR YOU! If you sittin’ there reading this like… “really No? Busta?” then stick yo’self Pretty Tony & hit the jump to DL like yesterday!! (my bad for the 1 day delay)

FOOTAGE: SWIZZ BEATZ AT DD172

Swizz Beatz, in addition to being a prolific producer, is an avid art collector. Not in a trendy way either. I’m talking Salvador Dali, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Herring, Andy Warhol, absolute greats. Coodie & Chike catch up with him at the DD172 artist space and chop it up about collecting and how the art world is the hardest platform to gain credibility within. Listen up kids, buy art! It will only appreciate as times passes.

BLIND I SAYS GO! SEPTEMBER 2009

Back when your boy was still in school, September was the time to start gearing up for long nights and plenty of reading, running back & forth around this wonderful city of Chicago, and bundling up for the crisp autumn air with a good playlist on my iPod. With that era in mind, I’ve compiled a thorough list of twenty-one tracks as crisp as that autumn air is to create the September ’09 edition of Blind I Says GO! This joint has a lot of different vibes in it…some new joints, some vintage, some rarities, ALL dope. Grab it, check the tracklisting after the jump, and rock with it for the month to come.
