Audio: Dirtybird Beats - Don't forget the Magic // Beat Tape
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.
I missed this email in the mail-account but ive seen this Beat Tape before @ 77e.7 canny instrumentals made with MPC1000 and we love that rattle.Get the E.P. get good music.

Audio: Black Seeds - Summer Sampler // (free download)
Black Seeds - I always think of them as "the bad copy of Fat Freddys Drop". So, this one is for my sister and all the others who are into the reggae-rockers from New Zealand. For me it runs under the motto: "Never look a gift horse in the mouth". Not so bad but not so good either. Take a listen - maybe it´s your cup of tea..

Audio: ¡Mayday! – Make A Livin’ // feat. Ras Kass & Dice Raw // MP3
Audio/Video: hypnotic brass ensemble - free download
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.
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)

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
