Summer Timeeee

...when the livin's easy

School is over, and I've already started just making beats en masse.  It's nifty because I can fit everything I use for production (my laptop and trigger finger) in a bag so I spend majority of the day wandering to interesting environments, sample hunting through music collections and the internet, and then cutting up and putting samples on the trigger finger where I just drum 'em out and make beats.  

Also I have a new project in store which should get off the ground (very?) soon.  It basically would be a commercial venture in production, so I'll let you know once that opens.  Be excited, because I am.  I'll also release a fair deal of the beats I've made coinciding with the start of this project, so soon you'll hear.  

crazy brits

So I've been following the basketball playoffs with joyful attention during this finals period, and I've been mostly doing it from my laptop.  Anyways the short side of it is whenever I'm catching a game it tends to come from some random worldwide channel, and tonight I just watched the rockets beat the lakers without a single announcer talking.  It was Sky Sports and instead the crowd was just miced to the point where I felt like I was a part of the game and participating.  

Basically watching the Premiership is the same experience, where you go and the crowd is the driving force of the game.  I was into it, and realized that's what everyone on the court experiences and hears.  Seriously intense, but I want to run into it again. 

Also come to Tappan Square tomorrow.  Badassery!

summer: so close, yet so far

look for awesome things to come this summer....

First a thank you to the weather for allowing us to have a much needed time of simply playing some music, as friday we got the chance to serenade the campus at TGIF amidst the clouds that looked like they wanted to rain, but refrained.  It's great being able to play for large crowds, so definitely was a highlight of the weekend.  Also we played a party last night that went well, but managed to get shut down too early in the night.  School's starting to wrap up as next week is the last week of classes, but we'll be sure to get in more shows before school's done.  

Also huge congrats to Daveed who's beats have caught the ears of a New York label, as he's currently looking forward to a summer as a producer internship.  More news on that once things become more clear.

Just counting down the days 'till summer, as I've been itching for time to just sit down and make beats like crazy.  It'll be here soon enough.

'till then........
