” K Kut Speaks “
When people talk about the classic album by MAIN SOURCE “Breaking Atoms”, they usually discuss the top notch production….Obviously LARGE PRO had his hand in the overall sound of the project, but K Kut along with Sir Scratch brought something to the table as well…
After the trio disbanded “KK” went on to produce for BIG PUN, CITIZEN KANE, MADONNA, and provided straight up heaters for fellow Canadian MAESTRO FRESH WES that should not be overlooked on the BLACK TIE AFFAIR album…A few years back the elusive DJ/ producer rocked a interview with Tochi that is worthy of your seven minutes….
PEEP…
” DJ Fakts One 2015 “
While shaking my head in disbelief after listening to Mr. Lif’s newest material (Go track down some of his 2015 shit and I promise that you will be utterly stunned) I couldn’t help but wonder why he stopped collaborating with FAKTS ONE….
To my surprise FAKTS has a new project out with CURLY CASTRO “Restroy & Debuild” that definitely has its moments….
HIP HOP BATTLEFIELD TOP PICK – “DRY ICE”.
” Hip Hop Treats On Deck “
Ahhhhh shit, this is more like it…..
Those dudes from BBP-BX never cease to amaze me with their brand of true to the grain BBoy garments..While many “boutique” cats come and go, I have a feeling they will be around for awhile…
This Incredible Bongo Band flip is right up my motherfucking alley…
” Walt Sicknin : Chamber Crack “
WALT SICKNIN (KDP) has been dropping consistently fresh material for several years now…The Philly native rocks a highly nasal, off beat – on beat flow that is distinctive and original…
For instance on “Chamber Crack” he hits us with a barrage of out of control bars…
PEEP…
” Piero Umiliani – Continente Nero “
WHEW…
If you need more groove morale in your life, I suggest that you don’t sleep..
“Piero Umiliani was born in 1926 in Florence-Italy. He was a composer of film scores, most famous for his song “Mah Nà Mah Nà” of 1968, that was originally used for a Mondo documentary about Sweden (Svezia, Inferno e Paradiso) and became world-famous in 1977 when performed for The Muppet Show. The song was also an anthem of the Benny Hill show. In his long career Piero Umiliani composed and recorded 190 soundtracks, 40 library albums and 35 TV title themes.”

” Final Level : Raekwon “
After looking at the features on the new Raekwon album (FILA), I have been reluctant to give it a listen….Regardless, I have a tremendous amount of respect for what he has brought to the table over the years…
On the FINAL LEVEL podcast ICE-T & RAEKWON go head to head for over two hours..All types of gems are being dropped so make sure you give it your full attention..
” African Funk Mode “
Here is a recent mix from the peoples over at VOODOO FUNK-
“I still have record shipments coming in from Ghana and Nigeria and I’m also working on various re-issue projects about which I will post here on the blog as they are hitting the market but for the next few years I will spend most of my time with non-record-related activities, away from nightclubs and away from the internet. However, I might still play the occasional party around Latin America and in October, when the rainy season here gets a bit too wet for my liking I’ll return to Europe and Asia for some dj parties. Just keep checking to your right under “dj gigs”. Here’s a Nigerian funk mix, I put together with some recent new discoveries. Sorry, I’m not publishing track lists anymore but there’s a ton more mixes all throughout the other posts of this blog and all of the older ones come with complete track lists. Enjoy!”
” These Handz : Proceed With Caution “
THESE HANDZ (Cloud City Projects) has some 2015 flavors for you to rock out with…”Proceed With Caution” featuring REV, TRUTH CLIPSY, GATSBY with nice, well timed cuts by DJ GRAZZHOPPA to round things off…
” Blog Jewelry On Deck “
If your on the hunt for a blog that strictly rocks rare, under the radar, slept on Hip Hop gems from the 90’s, I highly suggest heading over to the RHH 90’s spot for an avalanche of action…
When you head over there make sure to tell them the grimey dude from HIP HOP BATTLEFIELD sent you jack!!!
” Divine Styler Speaks “
The man, the myth, the elusive former RHYME SYNDICATE cat with the unorthodox patterns and approaches – Mr. DIVINE STYLER recently emerged from the shadows with a new release “Def Mask”….
I haven’t heard it in it’s entirety as of yet, but after reading this interview with LA RECORD I’m going to get my order in….
Certain acts are being promoted as indie artists though they’re really backed by a major company via proxy.
Yeah. C’mon now—it’s still a billion-dollar industry and one of the most influential industries America has in the world. Who is making money? There is money somewhere. It appears there are fewer people making money so there has to be something deeper. That’s what I’m interested in. How can I do this so it works for me and not against me and I don’t have to make mixtapes and give away content for free? It’s hard to make a record— it’s not easy. You need resources, you need a place, you need to have your bills paid and take care of yourself. How are you going to do that shit? Get an investor who wants 200 per cent return on his investment?
” Rub A Dub Steez “
JACKPOT SOUND takes us on a RUB A DUB journey through extra heavy crates on this episode of “Come In A Dance”…..1979-1985
Please do not sleep…..
” Gensu Dean : Jointz “
Not sure if I posted this when it initially dropped back in 2012, but I was listening to this again last night and it had some joints (No pun intended) on it that deserve repeated listening….
HIP HOP BATTLEFIELD TOP PICK “Unplugged Remix”
” DJ Fleg : Japan Funk & Breaks Mix “
Some of the most rewarding moments of fatherhood thus far, involve watching my son naturally respond to breaks….As soon as he hears that heavy percussion he trances out with his little 5 year old body rock, and makes his father proud..When I played this mix by DJ FLEG he instantly turned into a human tornado..
Do the right thing and scoop this up….Extremely rare Japanese breaks, doubles, renditions,etc…
