I met this beatsmith during a scratch session where we got to do a little back and forth ourselves with me on drums and him laying down samples. It was fun as hell and I hope to do it again. Dude’s got a dope style—gritty drums, obscure and/or soulful samples and an overall hypnotic vibe with the beats. peep!

Mod Dance Party New Orleans
First day in New Orleans, while getting some records and local rap at Peaches we got tipped off about a party at a spot called Saturn Bar around the 9th ward. We really didn’t know what to expect and it turned out to be a crazy-fun, no bullshit, all vinyl “mod party” (40s-50s-60s psych/rock/funk/soul). Packed in a dive with a bunch of interesting paintings and a cool balcony, people were going nuts to the likes of The Mighty Hannibal, Mongo Santamaria, early Beatles, the Ramones and more. The DJs were snapping hard, a girl almost fell off a balcony, everyone was mad friendly and I found out where to go digging today. The Mod Party crew are holding it down, playing events around the Louisiana area. I hope to see/book them in Chicago someday soon. If you’re in New Orleans look for this party!!!
Intentions from the newest album, Rules, from Whitest Boy Alive. As fresh as this band already was, they rounded the electronic edges with addition of Daniel Nentwig, full time on the Rhodes and Crumar (italian synthesizer). Now my heart melts even more with its funky drums, and my head sways softly from side to side with the smoothness of it all.
D’Angelo - Everybody Loves the Sunshine (Roy Ayers cover)
Though it’s impossible to top the original, D’Angelo does a good job flipping this cut yet keeping its essence. Stay warm out there!
Tall Black Guy - Hollyweird
Tall Black Guy - Hollyweird beat tape
I remember first seeing Tall Black Guy when he won the Red Bull Big Tune beat battle a few years back. Been following a bit ever since and heard he recently moved out west. Here’s one of his mixtapes showing how the freshcoast’s flavor is influencing his already thorough production skills.
