The label that did release this CD also put out another one called "South Central Funktion" that never appeared nowhere else before, which is a collection of rare tracks produced by Battlecat. Apparently, Battlecat worked directly with them, giving access to his Masters, so I don't think he's the cr...

He must have slit his wrists now that "Gumbo Roots" is available everywhere for a cheap price on CD.

YBT had ties with the whole Bomb Squad/P.E. clan, so chances are it was the same guy.

It should drop at the end of January, with The Legion's EP too.

I'm the "hidden" man behind this release... Holla at me if you want more infos. ;)

And by the way, it's a pretty dope CD to cop if you miss that vintage Cold 187µm sound.

Where I live, being a real man means making money to feed your family and make sure they live a decent life. But I guess it's different in Disneyland, I never paid it a visit though. Lucky boy.

Dude, stop CRYING!! If a vinyl-only label only wants to put their shit out there on vinyl and NOT offer up a digital version, I think that's great! Like I've said a million & one times, if you're a Hiphop head, then there's NO REASON that you shouldn't own a fuckin turntable and vinyl. I wish every...

dope. I love the offer high quality digital downloads. I always though all the releases should offer that. Even if I buy the vinyl I'd pay for a digital dl of the master rather than ripping my own vinyl. There's will probably always sound better. Agree. This is a huge benefit, I think. I don't real...

Thanks for the info Verge! The snippets sound crazy dope.

Props to the whole Heavy Jewelz team, another dope record in your catalogue! Will it be available in digital format like the previous project or not?

Something I always wondered about on the recording of the event was the Juggaknots song 'I'm Gonna Kill You' - it sounds like it is being played off a record (it sounds exactly the same as the version of the song on the Juggaknots EP) with some audience sounds added in the background, as opposed to...

Dope, thanks a lot.

recently two mc's put out a mixtape of themselves rhyming over pete rock beats and the cover was them recreating the cover to Main Ingredient. seen it in a few places before but now had a search but can't find it, don't know the mc's names. I guess you must be talkin' about this : http://www.echosd...

As far as the "Straight Outta Compton" hommages, one of my favorites was this :

if i'm not mistaken, the other side of the Atlantic is not much into foreign stuff unless they're dubbed or something. You're wrong lol. "Basket Case" is a huge classic among French horror fans (and I guess European fans in general). For example, Henenlotter was invited to my hometown just a few mo...

I did this last year using beats from both versions of "Petestrumentals", might be worth listening to if you can endure French rapping lol :

It was produced & released by a small French label, there's even one guy from my hometown who did a few beats on the album. Pretty cool record, nothing groundbreaking though.

:cheers: http://six2sixrecords.bandcamp.com/album/physics september 6th release date Are they selling the digital version too, once it's released? I hope so! I believe they've done so for past releases but you can never tell with this release because the label has been more or less just been acting...

Bought this GB album the week it dropped, and I think it's their weaker LP. The group was reduced to a duo (Face & Willie), and they relied on so many featurings that the album sounds like a compilation at times, which is not a very good thing. It's their less cohesive effort, even though some beats...

Verge, much props for this 1st release. Any chance for a CD pressing? Would be dope.

Sounds great! Is it meant to be used with other medias, like searching for movies for example?

Ive seen a promo cd listed in discogs. I contacted those who claimed to have it. Dude said make an offer. Said the sound quality was excellent. I asked for audio samples. Never got a response back Yes, same scenario everytime lol. Came across a few people claiming to own this CD, but no one has bee...

^ Thanks for the input... personally I haven't had a lot of requests to do CD releases, which is why I use the Amazon option as I don't really want to end up with a stack of unsold CD's. But if it is something that people are really interested please do let me know and I will try to cater to demand...

As far as International sales go, these small labels would make more money with CD's than Vinyl's. Shipping costs have increased drastically, so a lot of people are not able to afford 20$ and sometimes more for vinyls. Most of these artists have dedicated fan bases in Europe more than in their own c...

N.O. Joe is from the South, he used to be part of the in-house Rap-A-Lot production team.

Thanks for the upload Herban, and congrats on your newborn!
