These Be Tha Good Times

Hey "Fear", I hate you.

A huge change in a brotha's life usually brings hesitation, doubt, 2nd thoughts, nervousness, and fear. These are the enemies that are trying to creep up on me right now as I type this. But no, I will stay faithful in the face of doubt and laugh in the face of fear. I know that God will bless me because he said he would in his word.

Heady Brew

Can't say I'm sorry if you never read this.

Can't touch me, can't see me, can't even know I exist.

My moves are ghosted,but I see you drifting.

Got too much to love than to let you spoil it.

There's no more you and me.

My sounds go with me, my ideas become memories.

There is no lurk, there is no spirit, there is only shards of wisdom.

If you ever learn you'll know that I'm always beyond your room, a muffled curiousity to your senses.

Find your own place.

For my peoples, here's M.C.D.E.

Late last year I slept on the 3&4 and am still paying for it; these are even better w/ a dash of Trus'me on the rmx of #5 (I think).

Andrés II

Andrés II just came out on the sneak tip. I'm guessing it was released today or yesterday. At first, I only found it for sale on 2 sites: Interstellarsounds.com and one Japanese webpage. Discogs sellers are already jackin' the price up.

But then I realized you can buy it straight from Mahogani Music.com (A site that was basically dead a few months ago with only a Mahogani logo as a place holder). Now it's alive and thumping. You can grab the album from the store using Paypal too, thank goodness.

We are huge KDJ, Mahogani Music, Moodyman, Andrés fans around here, and these are the type of releases I have no problem spending doe on. Think of it as a stimulus package for your ears. Grab it while the prices are within reason / aka / before the "collectors" grab all the copies and jack the price up.

Enjoy,
Pro

Dusty Fingers

Thanks to Jimmy for bringing it back. Blowing the dust off the blog. Putting dust on my fingers.

It's been a long time since I posted & a long time since I been to the local record shop. I got constant reminders from a very good friend of mine to head on over to the store and grab some records. After months of delay, I hooked up with another friend, grabbed some cash, put on some comfortable shoes, my Indian Jones hat, and went digging. And I loved every second of it.

You might say, "oh this is just another disco track". Well I say "your a stupid mother..." SHUT YO MOUTH. The way the bass burns on this track is just sick. So funky that it make's me want to slap my mother. But I like living, so I won't.

Superfunk - La Guerre Du Funk: They took 12 seconds of the track, looped it, 4 on the floor, phazer, and made a jam. Gotta love house.

One,
Pro

Hey folks!

Long time, no smell eh? This is that block bleeda, sappy as fuck but staying outta trouble of recent dude. Some news for those who care, I got hitched in New Orleans last winter. I met B back in the early double-O's daze and she's been getting my back ever since, even when I had to take my hard knocks. 

My ying&yang, Classictrax is back and so is Lifted_Holmz. Stay tuned in and I'll keep it on the regs. For my cutty mofos in the spot, the password has been reset back to the original p/w. If you need to get at me for anything or just to drop a line hit me up at infinite.jimmy :at: liftedholmz.com.

And for the record I'm still as unstable (read:poor) as before but this time round I'll just spare yall my embaressments and stick to what I'm feeling musically. 

OK, now back to the musik... Since reviewing yester year's uploads I decided to archive them on my site and will reup the others in the next.
