Audio/Video: hypnotic brass ensemble - free download

ChoiceCuts presents Hypnotic Brass Ensemble from Loughlin McSweeney on Vimeo.

Spottie - Heritage EP Exclusive Download by ChoiceCuts
All 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 out
Some 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.
The energy you see in the video above remind me of that evening. It´s just impossible to stand still to these brassbands. So if you have the chance to catch one of them on tour, get there!
The freetrack (a cover of an outkast song. I guess from the aquemini LP don´t remember the title right now..) promotes an EP that features covers of fela, jay-z, Art Of Noise & Madvillan. (..One other thing, in the endnotes is written: producer mark murphy. Does anyone know if this has anything to do with the singer mark murphy? Well, propably not.. but also worth a click)

Video: Deja Voo and Blame One (Mysterys Extinction) 1995 // prod. Oh No or Madlib


(Mysterys Extinction) 1995 Crack Rock.

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. Song was recorded 1994 at Otis Jackson Sr's house in the ox and video shot 1995 in oceanside. Video was vhs, I filmed the tv from my little digital camera because I dont know how to transfer otherwise. A lot of North County San Diego OG's in this video. Good memories. one love. Blame.. and oh yeah... I dont remember the song name... as usual..haha

Madlib to the fullest.This song is ill and in some parts beyond the border,but one thing is clear,Madlib is a genius.This is ambitious free-Jazz and shows he is more than a producer.

Faimkills new Album "Dystopia Cornucopia" is the way how good Mcee's shows skillz on that glitch-hop influenced & banging beats."Wasteland Jungle" is my favourite song,fast & electric and Mc Faimkills is rapping so fucking dope.Nr. 2 is "Life Is Not A Daisy",the analog part to "Wasteland Jungle" and very poetic.Last but not least is the nice feature Dystopia Cornucopia with Captain & Curtiss King on the mic.Album is produced by Captain with a guest appearance of Jynxx.// Album Download.
