Myspace in an effort to battle it's shrinking traffic due to Facebook had granted us artists the ability to now have 10 tracks in our player. (or at least that's what it seems like to me) HAHA Regardless, it is the dopness!!!
Since I first got the notification that I was going to be able to upload more music, I was pondering what to throw up on the player. (o.g. demos, new ish, remixes, etc.) Well, after long thought I decided to break you off with a little of column A and column B. Here we have a couple of tracks from the LP that I re-upped after a long hiatus, "Lunchroom Tables" and "Inspiration." I also put up some new tracks from the "Dub Styles: Walkman Redemption" project, "B-Boy Stance" and the "Dub Styles (remix.)" New, old and a remix. BLAM!!!!
Now that I'm able to put 10 tracks up here, I'll probalby start rotating the track list more. So, stay tuned because there should be some real dope ish getting upped with all the projects I'm working on.
Speaking of, with the 2 new tracks along with one of my personal favorites, "Come Equipped," you'll start to see a theme building with the "Dub Styles" tracks. Funny... I kind of had that idea floating in my head, but it wasn't until after I was working on "Come Equipped" and I went diggin.' When I was at this spot called Missing Link, I found a dub 45 that said "Dub Stylist" on it. I thought, "Oh, sh!t it's on!!!!" Blam!!! Had to do it. So, I copped the 45 and made the beat for the remix out of it. (simply had to... how could you not?) Those two tracks are what really got the Dub Styles project going. I had some ideas floating around, but this is what helped make it get the focus it needed, so it wouldn't come off as a batch of songs just mashed together.
B-Boy Stance... that just came as I was working on this project. I was thinking of a dope track to do live and that just flowed out. I've ALWAYS dug that sample... I remember when Supercat flipped it... that was the 1st time I heard Biggie. But, I digress... I honestly was thinking about performing that song at the release party for "Basement Sessions," but I wanted to keep more to the music I was basically just putting out. (Basement Sessions) I dig this track, I don't know what the deal is, but some of these "Dub Styles" tracks have more of a swagger to them then what was on the LP, but then again understanding the context of "Basement Sessions" and the universe that "Dub Styles" fits into... it makes sense. But, you won't be able to get that till it's finished. HAHA
So, for the time being, peep the new ish on the page, along with the old ones. If anybody has something they want me to reup, just hit me.
Peace
