THE ROOTS

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…

DJ FRANCHISE-THE REINTRO (PART 1)

DJ Franchise came at this mixtape with a dope approach. Like many of us,  he was fortunate enough to become a hip-hop fan in the Golden Era where the rawest of the raw was coming out. Now he’s witnessed the common debate about whether or not the new rappers are any good  and comparing them to the vets. To highlight the talent in the new school, he put together this mix. Dope! Hit the skip for tracklisting.

VIDEO: JOHN LEGEND & THE ROOTS – I CAN’T WRITE LEFT HANDED

It was actually my homie Davy who put me onto this earlier tonight. We all agreed it bared a strong resemblance to a new era of Soul that threw back to the likes of Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, Bill Withers, and others. Truly genius music!

Whenever people reference Blind I, or the kind of music we post, especially in our monthly compilations, the word “taste” comes up a lot. Individually and collectively we all have a very specific ear and that’s what draws you in to either hate or love it. Sometimes when I put mine together, I try to switch things up a bit to reach and satisfy different tastes, but this month, it’s just me. I catered to what I wanted to hear.  I took my time pairing them together, contemplated and edited accordingly. Sit back, put your feet up and play it loud. (Drake voice) Y-y-y-y-you can thank me now.
