My name is Aaron, but I go by dirtybird beats. I live in Humboldt, California. I’ve got an MA in English literature, am a full-time janitor, raise chickens, and make beats in my sleep.I just released my second album, an instrumental ep entitled "don't forget the magic." The official release date for this album was June 2, 2010. I describe my music as synthed-out, lo-fi beats that are sample-based. All my music is composed on the MPC 1000. I'm hoping you will be interested in, and potentially post about what I have to offer musically. The entire EP can be found for free at Dirtybirdbeats.Bandcamp.

ChoiceCuts presents Hypnotic Brass Ensemble from Loughlin McSweeney on Vimeo.
Spottie - Heritage EP Exclusive Download by ChoiceCutsAll band members are the sons of legendary Sun Ra trumpeter Phil Cohran. The group began performing together as children (some as early as 3 years old). In 1999 they formed what is now known as the Hypnotic Brass Ensemble and have performed or collaborated with some of the greatest musical stars of the last two decades. From Mos Def to Maxwell, Wu Tang Clan's Ghostface Killah to UK superstar Damon Alburn, Erykah Badu to Fela Kuti's drummer Tony Allen. If you don't know these guys you're missing outSome years ago I saw a show of the Youngblood Brass Band as a opening act for Mike Stern + Dennis Chambers and Erik Truffaz. The audience was a meeting between some 40+ jazz fans who came to stand around and watch the masters Stern & Chambers play and some younger folks like me who didn´t even know about the long carrer of these jazzguys. I got interested in the concert because of a Y.B.B. 12" with Kweli I bought a few days befor. What was a meeting of two worlds in the beginning, ended up as a sweaty, dancing bunch.
Old school tune that was either produced by Madlib or Oh No.. Dont remember (EDIT OH NO CONFIRMED THAT THIS IS HIS BEAT AND HE WAS 16!! WHEN HE MADE IT!).. but Oh no definitely recorded the session.

Form by definition is the mode in which a thing exists, acts, or manifests itself. It is the foundation by which all things are perceivable in the physical realm. Our reality takes form as we visualize to manifest it. Once it is visualized it can be created physically. Becoming part in building our exterior existence as a reflection of what we are within; Life, Love, Creation.
Coming from the city of Go-Go, I've always loved production inspired by funk. when it comes to funk inspired hip hop, no body does it like the west. While I was on the west producing Trek Life's album that inspiration went further than being a fan. I don't know if it was the palm trees, beaches, or burgers but this is what I was making in LA.

Kutmah is a DJ from the Los Angeles scene known for his affiliation with Dublab and Low End Theory ... that is, he was until a couple months ago when a pack of federal immigration agents raided his pad, threw him in the detention center in the desert, and eventually deported him to his resident country, UK.
We'd been talking about a Kutmah podcast for a while, and knowing that he'd be released someday, brought it up again via jail mail. Kutmah's now a free man, living temporarily in Manchester UK, and finally got enough of his equipment together to put together this 50 minute mixtape.
