how I like it

It´s going to be a good year for house music. Some of my favorite producers got new records out or coming..  First to mention is the o.k. Moodyman-LP, that got way to much already heard stuff on it, but still some unbeatable detroitsoulishmoodystuff like you see in these videos:


(version of the funcadelic cosmic slop) 

(Check the second beat at 3:50 something - - dancin') 

(With amp fiddler, who showed jay dee the first tricks on the mpc)

Second is the other big detroiter Theo Parrish, who seems to have some new stuff going:



Another great LP is coming from cologne, where between a collection of vintage analogue synthesizers "Vermont" came to life:


Two more favorite synth-loaded releases on my favorite Recordlabel PPU:



OK, Done.
Back to RAP.

Video: Boldy James – Ground Beneath My Feet

Boldy James did a nice video in Heidelberg. Now I thought that place was in Germany, but apparently I was wrong. This is some abandoned street in Detroit that artist took over. Kool!

Audio: Danny Brown - Murder Game (feat. Guilty Simpson) (Produced by Quelle) // 2010

Photo by Brian Sorg (Check out his shizzle)

After listening to Danny`s new album a couple of times I felt I had to digg this guy Quelle of Crown Nation. Turns out he produced the best song of Danny Brown`s last solo effort, I didn`t catch his name back when it dropped though. I think you should check Quelle out aswell.
By the way "Quelle" is "fountain" or "originator" in German. Why the fuck didn`t I think of this name?
Sick track though!

Audio: Danny Brown - XXX // Free Album

Danny Brown "XXX" by foolsgoldrecs

The first full-length release from Danny since his acclaimed The Hybrid in 2010, XXX is a concept record about hedonism, growing up, and Detroit, taking listeners on a profane and psychedelic journey through the uncensored mind of rap’s most electric MC. There’s no laundry list of guest appearances or producers-for-hire, keeping the focus squarely on Danny and his rhymes: a triple stack of pop culture references and did-he-really-say-that? provocations atop the heart of a poet.
foolsgold

This is nuts. Fuckin insane. Do your self a big favour and download this without hesitation.

Download.

Tracklist with producers after the jump...

Audio: Boldy James - Trappers Alley - Pros And Cons // Mixtape

Boldy James - JIMBO from illRoots.com on Vimeo.

Dice Game (Prod. By Brains)

This is some pretty tuff drug dealer music straight from Detroit. Boldy James seems so slow and tired, but at the same time his delivery and rhymes are super precise. Danny Brown should check this guy out and collaborate.
Download his tape here.

Audio: El Iqaa - Circulate نشر // EP // Electric Kahraba

El Iqaa:
Circulate (EP) نشر is a collection of tracks created within the past year in dialogue with various video/photographic/installation art projects. These research projects, and the musical asides they inspired, all carry overarching themes I'm continually struggling to define; issues of language and translation (specifically around the languages of Arabic, English, Music and Love), memory, movement, electricity (power) and appropriation. Circulate (EP) نشر explores these issues through quotes and cuts from specific definitive samples (ranging from Abdel Halim Hafez to Pierre Boulez, Amiri Baraka to Trisha Donnelly, + many more). These splices are mixed with original recorded sounds to create connections between the past and the future, in hopes of trying to make some sense of this present.

Audio: Philosophy Cole - The Warpath Chronicles Vol: 2

Found "The Warpath Chronicles Vol: 2" via Philosophy Cole's facebook page. Got no further informations right now. Only 2 facts, He is from Detroit and the album is hella dope. // Complete album stream after the jump...

Audio: Danny Brown – Outer Space

This track is the reaction on some Beef (call it how you want) with the Odd Future kids. The reason is a concert in Detroit, where people threw bottles on the stage and the concert has been ended earlier than scheduled. Outer Space is making clear how dope Danny Brown is, line after line, pure entertainment. Successful answer.! (prodcued by xskywlkr)..(Read the complete story at Bears Eats Beats)...

Wanted: New music by ... Phat Kat!!!

At this point of time I would like to introduce a new series to this blog. The "I demand new music by..." series. You can leave your comments and demand new music by the artist or any other artist. Feel free.
First up is PHAT KAT. The last couple of days I listened to my copy of Carte Blanche chanting along (i have a record player next to the shower). The album is that shit. Hard rhymes, furious flow and sick as f++k beats by Dilla, Black Milk, Nick Speed and Young RJ. It was only two years ago that we had the chance to catch him live at Kassablanca, Jena. The Crowd was welcoming him like a rockstar and I remember the look in his face, saying to himself: "What the hell is going on?"
Today I had to google the Detroit native only to find out that there is not much to find out. There is a cool sixteen on the Foreign Beggars LP (press play above), a feature on a MoSS produced track (video below), a couple of remixes and a Black Milk assisted song from early 2009 off his upcoming album Tha Katakombz which is set to drop this year. Really? Let`s hope they make it happen.
We`re fiending for some new Phat Kat. If anybody has any news on Ronny Cash, please comment.
