Thinkloud: Droppin' Mirrors is a musical cross-section of past collaborations, as well as a glimpse of projects to come.But what makes this compilation special?The tracks featured are no mere licensed releases, nor are they a "Best Of" of ThinkLoud's back catalogue. Droppin' Mirrors contains almost nothing but exclusive productions. These are the natural result of joint shows with, and tours managed by ThinkLoud's DJ Conikt across Germany and Europe. We managed to get artists like Aloe Blacc (Stones Throw), Kev Brown (Up Above), Grand Agent (Superrappin') and Oddisee&TrekLife (Diamond District) on board. At the same time, young and talented artists like Portformat, Shuanise, Fid Mella, and others have found their way onto the album. They embody the very sound we are aiming for.A major portion of the songs were composed by in-house producer Stroe, and recorded together with the guest artists in Berlin.The result is a genre-crossing product that transcends its roots in Rap, Experimental, and neo-Soul.Droppin' Mirrors sets sail towards electronically fragmented, soulful beats, deconstructivist arrangements, and unconventional ideas to let a charm of its own flourish.

Im really vibing on that "Blow My Mind" song, arrived some hours ago via mail from "Dice The Nicest & Black Karma".Beat is smooth but the "Blow My Mind" Sample is too common and dominant.But both Mcees flowing nice and relaxed,so take a listen.Yo°
Freedie Joachim released a new smooth Remix from Esthero via Soundcloud.This guy is really talented and i hope we will got more for the addicted listeners in the next time.If you missed the "DUST" E.P., push the link!ahoi!
I really liked "Who Dat" when it dropped. This time it`s a bit smoother and includes mostly lines directed towards the females. Basically the usual sex talk that you`ll find in any rap song...and it seems like there are still a million ways to say: I wanna fuck you. Still this fresh...very fresh. jimmy
Ps: Thought about this picture, but then settled for the one above.
Issue Nr. 2 of the "TvThemesFlipped" Saga.Various producers means smth. like: almost every track has another producername in the title,wow.You can find some real bangers on that release like the track i picked above,from "Aspect 1",Curtiss Kings "Smart Guy" is ill,Thelonious - "Taxi Cab Confession" is so soulful,but youll find some average tracks,too.I like such team projects and seeing people like "Curtiss King" husslin for the new blood.If you missed issue nr.1,check it via77e.org. where i recognized the project the 1.st time.Pump up the Volume!
Two new Curren$y joints. This time around he links up with old timer Fiend. Some of you might know him from the No Limit days. I did never fuck with Master P and his fam, but I fucks with this. Roll one up, SOLO... and smoke to this cuzin...I loves it... and there is more to come. Internets says that these two are working on a brand new project.
Light up.

Fact Magazin:The young Turkish singer, full name Ahu Kelesoglu, has already built up quite a reputation for her collaborations with Flying Lotus, Mr Beatnick and others – it was she, under the name Dolly, who contributed the sublime, dusky vocal to Flying Lotus’s ‘Robertaflack’. Increasingly focussing on solo work inspired by house, techno, the golden age of jazz singers, European movie soundtracks and much else besides, we reckon Ahu’s really going to be one to watch in the months and years that lie ahead. We took the opportunity to ask her a few questions, and she reciprocated not only with some informative answers but with an exclusive mixtape for FACT as well. A wonderful audio tour of our girl’s formative influences and current interests alike, it includes music from Brigitte Bardot, Daedalus and Matthew Herbert, not to mention two unreleased tracks by Portishead’s Beth Gibbons. Listen, read and enjoy.

BTS Radio:Manic when it comes to new creation, I was handed three CDs with over 150 beats the first time I met Paul White. His output has been at dizzying levels for years, it's hard to imagine the number of archives he's stored away.White is hip-hop through and through. He respects the art and captures the elements of what you loved about the genre from the start. His sample sources lean towards psychedelics, experimental jazz and rock, giving it a more distinct sound than most hip-hop beat makers. His latest project, "Paul White and The Purple Brain", is an album made up entirely from work of little-known Swedish psych-rock guru S.T. Mikael. The combination goes hand in hand and where White is most comfortable creatively. Taking drug-fueled sound and rinsing it through the MPC.Paul White's "Paul White and The Purple Brain" is out now on Now-Again/One-Handed Music.
Everybody knows that we LOVE "Paul White",his psychedelic and dirty way of producing with amazing arrangements.This talent from UK out of the "Onehandedmusic" label is one of the dopest shooting stars in the avant-garde Hip Hop producer scene.High Five Paul!
Big News!!! Big Boi is almost done with his new album Sir Lucious Left Foot. Ok thats no big news, but look here: a new Outkast song and you can download it for free. Sleepy Brown on the hook and Toronto`s Boi-1da on the beat. Something for the ladies, something for the clubs and something for all the Outkast fans. Ooooh I wish I`d be crumbling herb... jimmy
Ps: Look at the new design this shit looks fresher than these broads on the picture. Big up to SoLow
This sounds very much like a 50cent kinda tune, but I was anxious to hear some new Mic G material when I saw this video also featuring Royal Flush. Just these two names makes it worth a listen in my opinion. When I posted the video I asked if Mic Geronimo was ever two produce another album. Well it`s not a whole album, but an EP and it`s already out. You can find it on Itunes. jimmy
