==============Fat Jon Discography==============

ALL LINKS REMOVED AT ARTIST'S REQUEST, 7/08

So Fat Jon. This dude is easily one of my favorite producers. He's in my Top Ten if not Top Five. He's got this smooth, laid back style, and his basslines hit NICE. He is best known for his work with the Five Deez, but his instrumental work is where it's at. The 3582 stuff is some work he did with J. Rawls, and it is also really nice. "Departure" and "Impression" are instrumental CDs that have Nujabes, Force of Nature, and Minmi on them, but I really don't think you'll mind. But I didn't do this post randomly; I did it to go with Fat Jon's new CD, HUNDRED EIGHT STARS.

I spent a lot of time working on this post, because I really want you guys to hear this guy and get into his stuff; I know you'll like it as much as I do. So yeah... Enjoy!! And handle these Fat Jon beats with care; don't come yelling at me because you've got a broken neck. :)

David Axelrod; great composer of the 60s and 70s, has also produced for the likes of Lou Rawls, 'Cannonball' Adderley, and David McCallum. He's also had his work sampled in hip hop, most notably a McCallum record for Dr. Dre's The Next Episode.

One of the last works of his not yet anthologized are the the 3rd and 4th albums from The Electric Prunes. Well, they are now, and it looks like they came with instrumentals and some alternate takes.

enjoy

Marjen "you are here. so am i." (2006)

Marjen "you are here. so am i."
(192 kb/s)

9 untitled tracks

Solid downtempo, some of y'all will find this worth checking out. If you're feeling it, support the artist by purchasing copies at Non-Existent Recordings.



From the press release:
"After years of hiding in the shadows of the Saskatoon, SK music scene while developing his own musical style, instrumental hip hop producer Marjen has put together his professional debut album 'you are here. so am i.', released on his own independent record label, Non-Existent Recordings. This project has a strong emphasis on melodies that range from dark to dream-like and drums that refuse to stay dull and repetitive and be relegated to the background, opting instead to make their presence known and confidently lead the songs. The result is a short, but powerful album whose songs gently, yet firmly, push aside the sometimes narrow boundaries of hip hop, as a result appealing to fans outside of the traditional hip hop audience as well. This is music made by a man who is not trying to reinvent the wheel of instrumental music, but rather trying to add his own personal piece to the bigger picture."

Beat Society - DC Episode

BeatSociety is a showcase, where producers like Illmind, Oddisee, 88-Keys etc present their beats. They also have a website (under construction?) which "boasts over 350 producers and 4,000 beats from across the Globe."

First of all: the quality of the video isn't that great. It's filmed by a dude in the crowd, so it's all shaky and shit. But the sound is ok and the Beats are just bangin! See for yourself...

Featuring Illmind, Oddisee, Fel Sweetenberg (Da Nuthouse), 9th Wonder and RoddyRod (Maspyke) on the SP 1200, MPC & FruityLoops. Hezekiah, Bahamadia , Asheru, Little Brother and some wack MC's at the beginning on the mic.
Check it out!

Part1 (85 mb, 56 min.)
Part2 (82 mb, 56 min.)
Part3 (50 mb, 31 min.)

Big big ups to DJ Soul for hooking this one up.

Included in here are samples for Finding Forever as well as the two songs used for "I Wonder" and (albeit-awful) "Drunk & Hot Girls" off of Graduation.

Download it here.
Check my review for Graduation here, and as always (shameless plug) make sure you keep checking the blog.
Thanks everyone, enjoy the music.

Grimm Freestyle

WHOA now, so I know this completely breaks the "Rules" of the Blog, but this is something that EVERYBODY needs to hear... I remember a While ago there was a little discussion in the Box about MF Grimm, alot of people hadn't heard too much from him and weren't too familiar with his story, WELL, hearing this Freestyle might help you realize how Truly ILL the man was as a Lyricist. This was recorded before he was Shot, Paralyzed, and Imprisoned, and if you're familiar with Grimm, you will be able to tell the difference, his Pre-Shot stuff was Pure, Smooth & Raw. I mean listen to it, fuckin Kool G Rap backs down like 2/3 of the way through so Grimm can keep rippin it. Who knows where Grimm would have ended up if he hadn't have gotten Blasted. ANYWAY, I got this over at Stretch Armstrong's Blog - http://konstantkontakt.blogspot.com/ - which you may want to check out for Exclusive Gems, this is from the 5 Year Anniversary Show, but I chopped it so it's only the Rhyming, you may want to check the Blog for the rest of the show, it's funny, they get Mad Fools callin in to give Props, and Stretch/Bobb/& Kool G all Diss on pretty much everybody that calls in... Anyway, PEACE.

Myspace Producer Spotlight Ed. 1

Aurelien Atkins formerly known as Free Mind of Babylon

Real real good dude, I've chatted with him via myspace and blogs and even AIM on numerous occasions. He loves what he does, and he makes dope beats. My personal favorite is Beat 20, The Fall of Babylon...
Last I spoke with him, about maybe a week ago, he said he was working on an album, trying to make sure it's done to his standards of perfection. It's not often a post like this is made, so go check the dude out...show some love. I know he'll show it right back.

Check out his myspace here: Aurelien Atkins


Also, if you know any producers that you think deserve a "spotlight", let us know. We know how hard it is to get noticed, no dope producer should be left behind.

Gone, But Not Forgotten

Hi everyone. I told you I'd pop in on occasion - I was searching Google for some stuff, and I stumbled across this site.
Lots and lots of beats from various artists, a lot of mainstream radio stuff, but there's some bangers on here.
Enjoy, make sure you check out my blog as well...thanks. :)
