Deltron 3030 – it’s what you get when you mix Dan the Automator with Kid Koala and Del tha Funkee Homosapien

minha galera — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 11:15:25 +0000

Things you can do

Dan “the Automator” Nakamura is the brain behind many of the best hip-hop acts of the last 20 years, such as: Lovage, Handsome Modeling School, Gorillaz, Peeping Tom and he mingles along the likes of Mike Patton, Prince Paul, Dj Shadow, etc.

Kid Koala is …. Kid Koala -- the turntable master, signed to Ninja Tunes and constant inovator, mixing turntables, games and graphics into a big ball of fun.

Del tha Funkee Homosapien is that voice that you will never forget but never quite put your finger where you heard it for the first time. Well I’ll spare you the effort of googling it: he is Gorrilaz’s Del from Clint Eastwood & Rock The House. But he’s also a regular on many underground hip-hop acts, such as Jurassic 5, Handsome Boy Modeling School, etc.

Important info: The song Time Keeps On Slipping, featuring Damon Albarn, is said to have been the influence on the creation of the Gorillaz.

In this formula, Deltron 3030 is born, telling the story of Deltron Zero’s fight against an oppressive government and powerful corporations, while also battling to be the Galactic Rhyme Federation Champion.

Sibot – In with the old

minha galera — Fri, 15 May 2009 13:16:28 +0000

Introducing Sibot: one half of the sonically-souped South African trip-hop kids on distortion The Real Estate Agents that hail from Cape Town but whose beats and blips are heard around the world. Appropriately enough, the standard of DJ/Live show has reached the point where Sibot carries serious weight in holding his own as a solo/top scratch performer.
I like all the songs on his album In with the old, so I uploaded them all. If you prefer a full experience, listen to the Youtube playlist

Ruckus Roboticus – Playing with scratches

minha galera — Sat, 11 Oct 2008 18:15:16 +0000

Not since Kid Koala have I heard such a playful musician. He is just starting to get noticed, winning several music awards: Rockstar Games (Best DJ Mix 2003), Solid Steel (Best Mix 2003 & 2007), and Scion (Free-Up-Your-Mix Finalist 2005), so pay good attention to him, you might some day say: I know this guy from D I S C O R G Y (talk about cockiness)! He is indeed playing with scratches: old movies, children songs, game samples and the result is pure turntable:

Dälek

domnux — Wed, 13 Aug 2008 11:23:33 +0000

Dälek (pronounced ‘Die-a-leck’) is an experimental hip hop duo from Newark, NJ. The group comprises MC Dälek (vocals) and the Oktopus (production). They have often toured with artists from radically different genres, such as Godflesh, Isis, Prince Paul, The Melvins, De La Soul, and Lovage. Dälek’s music is dark, noisy and atmospheric, equally inspired by industrial music like Einstürzende Neubauten (the band of Blixa Bargeld), the layered noise of My Bloody Valentine and the dense sound collages of Public Enemy. Their sound is often constructed through sampling and a musical base atypical of most hip-hop, making it difficult for people to classify their sound. They have been described as trip-hop, glitch-hop, and metal- shoegaze-hip-hop, as well as criticized for their broad range of sound.

Fingathing – Epitaph

No one’s dead. Just bewitched by this wonderful song.

Walk In Space

Superhero Music

Re-Animo

With turntables, an upright bass and bold live animations of crazy mutants in tow, Fingathing are a mass fusion of technical effects and live instruments creating an explosion of far-flung funk and crunching avant hip-hop. The grooves grip tighter than a black hole, the drums smack the cheeks like an asteroid rain-storm, and the bass rumbles and hums like an imploding star.
