Louis Den Beat Battle 08 TONIGHT Please note NEW VENUE!!!


TONIGHT! New Venue, New Venue, New Venue!

BUDGIE
Louis Den's own BUDGE is reppin on the boards for this one..you've heard the range from the screw face bangers to the smooth jam mack soundtracks, Budgie is a sick producer and sought after DJ...he's bound to impress!!

WIZARD
Hastings based producer and one half of the OSB'z Wiz is a LDBB vet reppin since homework #4 back in 2007!!, he's been waiting patiently to get on the bill and now its his turn..you know the beats, the boombap bounce to the chilled out headnodders and the endless free releases he churns out!...wiz is a total package and one of the hardest working beatmakers in the UK!

GHOST TOWN
Sick production team originally from Leeds now based in london (and mostly just a 1 man operation). Ghosttown have credits for Foreign Beggars, Mystro, Guilty Simpson, Phat Kat and more...check the thread I posted earlier in this week for look into their new london based "squat" lab..expect sick beats!

CHEMO
Badboy producer (no not for diddy..you know what I mean). Chemo's put the work in behind the boards for years now and has the credits to prove it JOE BUDDEN, KYZA, TRIPLE DARKNESS, VAKILL, SEAN PRICE (do we need to continue??!). Fresh out the Killamonjaro labs Chemo's out to bless the den with BANGERS!.

and on the mic we have Birminghams own JUICE ALEEM (big dada/shadowless) fresh off his release JERUSALAAM COME.

VERB T blessing us for the second (but 1st official time hopefully) after not being able to show for what was the second beat cypher (with S-TYPE, JAISU, DARREN PAUL & ROEG DU CASQ)..Verbs was unable to make it due to family commitments but he's back with a vengance to finally rep for the beat cypher!.

and finally SLEAZE DA DON aka Hermes Trismegistus from the south coast (originally West Bromwich) Sleaze is a dope emcee with a unique delivery and style...teaming up with Eat Good's SONNYJIM for a joint EP (coming soon on eatgood/greasy vinyl) sleaze is here i brum to show you what he's all about. Sleaze recently dropped his LP THEOLOVISION on his own imprint "GREASY VINYL" which features producers WIZARD, BEAT BUTCHA, GHOST, ENDEMIC and more!.

And of course it wouldnt be a Louis Den Beat Cypher without the usual selections from DJ CRO and our OPEN BEATS and BUCKS FIZZ BEAT BATTLES..(all den heads are encouraged to rep for this so please bring a beat CD, dont be shy..I dont want to have to struggle for entrants again!)


NEW VENUE
Reason for the promo train on this LDBC being a bit late was because we were venueless!!, after going back to the Sunflower Lounge to secure Decembers date I was told they have changed the music policy and werent too keen on the "Smoking" that went on outisde...not sure what the whole mess was down to im guessing (as the owner was there that night of beat cypher 07) they didnt like the fact we overran slightly and maybe our little "car beats" session outside, so umm yeah we are now at the BIRMINGHAM SOUND BAR which is a much sicker venue (but comes at a price)...so please smoker squad, go for a little wander before you do what you do, dont want to bait up this joint too! and doooo come out and support, plenty more overheads this time so we gotta keep this one going (bring a mate and tell them bring a mate, and tell em both to bring beats!!)

More than 15 years into their musical journey, The Herbaliser just keep getting bigger, stronger and better. It all began in the early 1990s when West London duo Jake Wherry and Ollie Teeba discovered a shared passion for hip-hop, rare groove, funk and jazz. James Brown, DJ Premier, Lalo Schifrin, David Axelrod and Serge Gainsbourg were their youthful heroes.
Expanding their live line-up to a nine-piece in the late 1990s, Herbaliser became acclaimed festival favourites around the globe. Playing to increasingly large and appreciative crowds also helped Jake and Ollie broaden their studio working methods.
With a new emphasis on classic soulful songwriting, the main vocal focus these days is on a new recruit, the supremely talented 22 year old Londoner Jessica Darling. With Easy Access Orchestra members Ralph Lamb and Andy Ross also on board, Herbaliser now have a firm five-piece collective at their core.

Breakestra @ The Hare and Hounds Sat 21st Nov

Yeeeeah Breakestra make their long overdue Birmingham debut at The Hare and Hounds, if you've not seen them before your in for a treat...if you have seen them before you've already bought your ticket! I'll have a dig through my vaults for my interview with them when they played at the Warwick Arts Centre a few years back (damn just checked and it was just over 5 years ago!) Also got two of their live sets from their previous tour back in my Breakin' Point days (shouts to Chris) but need to dig them out and undecided if I should share them or not, enough requests and I will. Support form Funkbox and Sam Redmore, it's going to be one of the gigs of the year! Facebook info here

J-Zone Knows Whats Up

It's all about tapes! Stilts, Canns and Percy know the time. Great to see Zone's got the Baritone Tiplove Livin' Foul cassette too. J-Zones also got one of the best blogs on the net get peepin
Look out for the Paten Locke track on the next show too, should be up later today...

D'Angelo Voodoo EPK

This is good, wonder how many others are out there in cyber space now, any recommendations just leave a link in the comment box. Crazy seeing Eric Clapton in the video too, I'm going to play the album tonight

Bonus Redman EPK from Whut, one of my favourite hip-hop albums with so many memories for me growing up. Thanks to the original uploaders too. I'd treasured my Gangstarr and Beastie Boys promo VHS tapes but since they've put everything out on DVD they're not quite so special

When People Take Things A Bit Too Seriously...

Wow, I mean I grew up playing SF2 Turbo (shouts to Percy), Mario Kart, Sonic etc and still enjoy playing games every now and then, but these people need to get out abit more (or get locked up cause they really shouldn't be allowed in society!). I think he actually means he loves the game buts a little upset he deleted his save file or he wouldn't have been playing it for 17 hours straight (or have milk on his lip, the ladies will love him after this) Thanks to OJ for the link

Further proof that some people might need to get out abit more, this ones for Audessey, thanks to Joe Davies

Finally, if you needed to see anymore and props to Terror

Out To Lunch

Yep this is my sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeit, shouts to Chopped Herring, who've just launched a proper website if you can call it that. I've got a full review coming soon of their most recent release but this vid is for the great "Out To Lunch" 12" feat Rod Hotley and the top cut and paste "Double Glazing" on the flip (got named in Big Daddy as one of the best cut and paste tracks ever and they know their onions, hip-hop and errr breaks obviously). CH then went on to put out what is for me still the best breaks mix ever, "3 Sinister Sylables" urinating on other breaks cd's from a very large height (rumour has it Jay Glaze is actually a giant although I might have made that up). Enjoy

As a bonus Mr Cuba put me up on this fine young fellow called Mr B. shouts to Robard for the cricket knowledge

anyways I'm out like a trout, peas

Main Ingredient 19-10-09 w/ Rhyme Traveller & Peaks

Rhyme Traveller

Massive thanks to Rhyme Traveller and Peaks for last nights show, technical difficulties meant one of the mics kept cutting out and it had to be recorded at mine so felt abit like my old pirate days (big shout to Robin for the equipment usage as we couldn't have done the show without him!) A few tracks need adding to the play list, I'll fill in the blanks once I've had a chance to listen back to the show, RT also vocal-ed the only unrecorded Solid N Mind track 20 years after the beat was made so make sure you listen all the way to the end. As usual not enough time so hopefully get him back on the show soon.

Happy listening

DJ Buddy Diamond Exchange Mixtape

More musical treats to make your friday go faster, this time DJ Buddy mixes up four tracks from the Diamond District album In The Ruff and a bunch of solo material from each of the group members, click the pic or here to get your download on and you can buy the tracks I Mean Business and Who I Be.

Have a great weekend

45 Live

I used to love them, then went through a period of preferring 12"s (do I have to pause that on a hip-hop blog?) and then back to getting as many hip-hop 7"s as I could so what can I say about this besides I need one in my life! The track list alone is enough to make any b-boy drool. In stores 1st December so in plenty of time for Christmas if anyone is feeling (very) generous! Going to be interesting to see how the tracks are ordered and if the 7"s have any sort of inner sleeves...

Eminem, Black Thought and Jazzy Jeff, Hip-Hop Honors Rocking Bells

Jeff's still too good, check the end of the clip. This is from the 2009 Hip-Hop Honors Show

Monday, 12 October 2009

Trippin' at the Disco

Dope new vid for the latest PUTS single (well worth picking up for the dope DJ Day remix and dub remix, the 12"s pretty limited though so be quick) looking forward to the album now

Saturday, 10 October 2009

Le Donk and Scor-zay-zee

Yep I know I wouldn't usually do a post on a film but this ones an exception. My better half booked tickets for an advance screening at The Electric (oldest cinema in the UK!) with Shane Meadows and Paddy Considine doing a Q&A after (unfortunately no Scorz), sounds like the film business is just as shady as the music business, Q(-tip) record industry rule number 4080 I don't want to spoil the film but it will hopefully be on at a local cinema near you now (released 09-10-09) and I'm giving it the two thumbs up (pause), too many rofl moments so don't snooze! It's a strange mix of improvised comedy and part reality. It's on till Thursday 15th Oct.





Scorz links up with the P Brothers for one of his most infamous tunes (made the Daily Telegraph!)

Cappo and Scorz murder this, make sure to grab the Cappo Codex EP for the incredible The Looniest too (Cappo's back on the radio with Endemic on the 9th Nov to launch the Needle Drop Record)
Word is Scorz is officially out of retirement and signed a new deal which is great news, now get down to your local cinema, it's better than any other film out at the moment and may be the best film this year
