Some hip-hop tracks

I’ve been doing audio production on and off for a while now, I used to make drum & bass and slave in the studio for something to do. Prior to that I made 4/4 hardcore in Fast Tracker II and ModPlug Tracker (yeehaww!). A few years back I got together with a mate to start writing more and just generally have some fun making hip hop. We’re from Perth, we call ourselves Selekt Few.

Music & Beats

Many of you wont know, but i live a double life drenched in Music. To keep it short, i love music and the effects it can have on people and their mentality. I used to produce a bit of Drum N Bass but i stopped quite some time ago as it wasn’t making me happy, it was leaving me in a bad mindset. Fast forward a few more years and i’ve been practicing rapping for a few years, so i started to get down n dirty and start seriously writing both beats and raps (on the mic as Percuss), what follows is the end result of a month or 2 of getting back into the studio. I’ve only managed to get vocals down for one below and that beat is jacked from Swollen Members – Heavy Thinkers, but the lyrics were so meaningful i just couldn’t resist getting it down. ENJOY.

Bliss N Eso – Flying Colours Tour

Went down to Capitol last night with some friends to catch Bliss N Eso’s Flying Colours Tour and i’ll start by saying it was off the hook.  Bliss n Eso know how to rock a party, it’s just a pitty this party was held at Capitol.  Theres something about this place that has screamed “OHMIGOD BADLY LAID OUT” since the first day i walked into it when it was The Globe.  The major bar is at the back of the dance floor, which just happens to be right in the line of the main thoroughfare of the entire building, smart? no!

Funkoars – Black Sally

I noticed this video popup on YouTube the other day and yesterday it made it’s way to the far superior, Vimeo.  For those who don’t know, Vimeo is like YouTube but better, because they host 720p content so Hi-Def is alot more Hi-Def than YouTube.

Obese Block Party 5, Perth

So i got in thanks greatly to some wonderful friends, though i did have to ditch another friend to go, which was a bit crap. Some videos and pics after the break. The hyde park hotel was a nice venue, but once again, just like Pegz @ the rosemount, the sound was waaay over the top. The sound system trying to be louder than it was capable of. :( Continue reading
