Black Star – Untitled, produced by Madlib | Download

J Rocc played a set on BBC Radio 1 last night. Out of nowhere,
Benji B exclaimed “New Black Star produced by Madlib,
Exclusive!” and this played. Pandemonium. Mos Def
goes absolutely wild on this one. No idea or info
on what project this is from, but time will tell.

Mike Gao‘s Live Quantization/Swing Plug-In | Download

Producer Mike Gao presents “Hubris Produca”, a song from
the latest entry in All City Records‘ LA 10-inch series. Along
with the track, Mike is sharing a custom Plug-In he created
for live quantization and swing. Here is what
he has to say about the Plug-In:

“it locks you to quantized live (so you can play notes locked on to 4/4 16th notes), or it can be used as a novel way to approach swing (as polyrhythmic shuffle). This live quantize plugin allows you to play completely locked on 5s against 4s.”

Entry #8 also features TOKIMONSTA & is available
now on vinyl and online via iTunes and All City.
