Melanin9 - White Russian Vinyl and tracks from Magna Carta

If you haven't already go and buy, what for me, was the album of 2012 by Melanin9 "Magana Carta" I can't stress how much I listen to it. I feature on 2 tracks on the album which the videos show:

Organzied Democracy


Marble


On that note I just got my 2 copies of the "White Russian" 12" from these himself and this is a true collectors piece for my collection. It's made of heavy weight vinyl and its red and black and the photos show.

The EP features the tracks:
White Russian
Magna Carta
Straight Live

With instrumentals of each on the flip as to finish off the A-Side accapellas to White Russian and Straight Live if you want to get on the remix tip or in my case use the samples for scratch hooks/word play.

This 12" got a 9.5 in the January issue of well respected DJ Mag and single of the month which goes to show the quality of this record.

You can buy the vinyl from Suspect Packges, the Anatomy Spills bandcamp page and other online record shops.

All in all this is glued to my Technics at present and will be for a while yet!

Micall Parknsun - Me, Myself & Akai

If your in to the UK scene you must have heard of Micall Parknsun by now? If not you need your head checking! The man is a true artist both with the rhymes and the beats. He has his 3rd album dropping on the 27th January titled "Me, Myself an Akai" and for the tracks that have been released and videos done for them its shaping up to be one of the albums of the year for me. I bought the "Me" 7" (White Vinyl at that!, check the picture below!) and straight away it was another Parky banger. A heavy thumping beat with a dope piano sample and Mr. Parknsun dropping the rhymes as only he can. You can also grab "Grade & Liquor" from iTunes which is a party/stoned/drinking track. After a few listens you'll find yourself wanting to song/shout along to the chorus (Yeah I felt like that) and again it thumps!
I say this a lot on Facebook/Twitter/here etc but if you like the music I post about and want the artists to live and produce more good music go support them and BUY the music!!!

So on January 27th get a slice of "Me, Myself & Akai" in your collection and headphones....

And the T-Shirts need to get a general release to, they are fresh to def!!!

Winter is here!

Since its minus whatever over here in the UK I've been locked on my turntables getting tracks done for people and enjoying music. I've heard a few more new tracks I've featured on and there sounding good. When the drop I'll be sure to upload them to my soundcloud page.
In the mean time here's what the UK looks like at the moment....one word COLD!!!!

One song springs to mind at the moment and that's "Snow" by Roc Marciano.
