Instrumental Wasteland

2012-01-20T09:35:00.001-05:00

This is a mostly instrumental album made by the producers for cultivating your new experience. Its only 9 songs but the most of them are 10 minutes long. This could have been 50 songs that are 30 seconds each but I really enjoy it the way it is.

ONE

2011-11-17T10:01:00.001-05:00

This album is very similar to Good Things by Aloe Blacc just with rapping. This has excellent production and a beautiful sound orchestrated by Pete Philly.

Book by David

2011-11-11T09:47:00.001-05:00

This album is everything the west coast could be right now in hip hop. Instead west coast hip hop has become littered with fashion fags. Leave it to one of the founding godfathers of the g-funk sound to bring some class back to the west.

Once Upon a Time

2011-11-09T16:51:00.000-05:00

If you enjoy Fat Jon solo albums then you will definitely love this. Pure instrumental goodness that feels very well thought out and natural.

Rhyme Pays

2011-11-08T10:13:00.000-05:00

Ragazino should have made this his album cover instead of cliche'd "black man standing in front of projects" picture used. Excellent NY hip hop album though, every song is good and the guests get dirty with their verses.

One October Post

2011-10-28T09:17:00.000-04:00

Sorry for not making any posts this month, life is busy. Here is an instrumental album not found too many other places.

Also some of my special links are getting taken down because some leeching douchebags are too lazy to make their own. I hope you faggots get in a car wreck as having to deal with copyright complaints is not something I am willing to do. If this keeps happening then I will just shut this blog down and start another one under the guise of something nonsensical.

Dem - Cissalc (2011)

2011-09-21T09:27:00.002-04:00

I must have played this album 10 times since getting it a few days ago. Beats are on point and all the guests minus hodgy beats do the production justice.

The link on this is gone because faggots steal my links. Stones throw then found it and had it removed, if they had found it here this entire post would have been deleted.

Musikyo (2010)

2011-09-12T10:56:00.000-04:00

Kyo Itachi is a french producer with an interest in samurai/ninja type stuff. It is all guest appearances with top notch production. The song with Finale is especially awesome.

The Midnight EEEEAAAAAAAZZZZZZZYYYYYYY

2011-09-08T09:55:00.000-04:00

This is an instrumental album recorded back in 1995 or 1996 but was just released in 2011. Very high quality and laid back instrumentals.

Link

Funky Black Current

2011-09-07T09:12:00.000-04:00

This is Funky Dl's newest album Blackcurrent Jazz 2. It is a great laid back affair but the album cover looks terrible so I used a pic of space and dark currents.

Link

All Things Forever

2011-08-30T09:54:00.001-04:00

This album is pretty serious in regards to content. The production is excellent and all done by Lost Perception. Blaze Rock is hard to listen to at first but the farther into the record you make it the better it gets.

I posted this album a few times but it kept getting taken down. I like to think of this album as sophisticated mobster music.

Lucid Bed

2011-08-09T10:41:00.000-04:00

Some of these posts I make with the random picture and stuff because I am afraid (and a little bit tired) of the copyright assholes taking it down. Other times I just don't want the album to leak every where because most people on the internet are ungrateful pieces of shit (ie leechers). This album is a case of the latter so enjoy!

That Damn Funk

2011-08-03T09:46:00.000-04:00

I don't normally take links from other sites but I didn't feel like uploading this super long funky masterpiece of dance music. This is actually of collection put together of 5 different volumes of music by the artist.

The Reggae Ghost Deini

2011-07-26T09:19:00.000-04:00

This is Mr. Kalonji's latest album and while listening to it for maybe the 5th or 6th time I kept hearing similarities to Ghostface's RnB style rap album from last year. The beats are pretty much all over the genre spectrum but somehow mesh very well together.

Ema the Kid - Bullets and Broads (2011)

2011-07-13T13:10:00.000-04:00

Some nice hip hop from 2011. Pretty laid back stuff although he sounds like a lot of new rappers that I don't like, but he pulls it off with some excellent production.

1. Intro (Prod. Origimoz)

Jah Vinci Mixtape (2011)

2011-07-12T10:39:00.000-04:00

This is a mixtape by DJ Irie Brain of Jah Vinci songs. This is dancehall but Jah Vinci hardly uses autotune (maybe one or two songs here) and most of his songs are about the almighty instead of typical go go wine girl songs.

Loan Sharks

2011-07-07T11:23:00.001-04:00

This is a hip hop album that actually has nothing to do with loan sharks but I like doing lame play-on-words titles for my posts. Enjoy!

Toro y Moi - Underneath the Pine (2011)

2011-07-06T10:18:00.000-04:00

This is supposed to be "chillwave" but I don't know what the fuck that is. Personally I believe this is just some chill electronic with excellent accompanying vocals. It is only 40 minutes long and feels like its maybe 20 minutes when you listen, an instant favorite for me.

1. Intro/Chi Chi
2. New Beat
3. Go With You
4. Divina
5. Before I’m Done
6. Got Blinded
7. How I Know
8. Light Black

Kingston Tale

2011-07-06T10:02:00.000-04:00

This is a dance hall album which means auto tune, dance songs and lyrics that hard for regular people to understand. But I love this album and have trouble turning it off.

Nottz - You Need This Music (2010)

2011-06-13T14:49:00.000-04:00

Producer's Cut (2011)

2011-06-07T11:11:00.001-04:00

This was recently re-released by K-Murdock with all of the skits that didn't make it onto the album originally back in 2006. It still has all of the songs and it includes 5 more skits (all of them are pretty short) that really bring the album together. Especially the Richard Pryor skits. Enjoy because I haven't seen this on the web, at all.

Meyhem Lauren - Self Induced Illness (2011)

2011-06-06T10:08:00.000-04:00

This is a double disc album that spans about 2 hours and 20 minutes. I would say about 80% is excellent and the other 20% is alright. Still this is an excellent hip hop release with very good production and gritty rhymes from Meyhem Lauren. Definitely a quality 2011 release.

Stars - Heart (2003)

2011-06-02T10:52:00.000-04:00

The album cover for this album is super gay looking so I posted a pic of Jesus riding a dinosaur with unicorns fighting in the background. It is much better than the actual album cover.

Anyways this album is something I love listening to before going to bed. It helps me to relax and sleep better. It is a really soft indie rock album but I love it.

Also I got this picture from some bible website about the apocalypse. Pretty funny stuff since that kind of weather is fairly common in Florida around hurricane season.

This album doesn't officially release until next week so it will have to fly under the google radars. The album is an instrumental LP that is supposed to have a "dark" theme but after listening it was the standard fare of what to expect from these producers.

PLEASE NOTE: THE ARTIST NAME FOR THIS IS GOING TO BE SOUNDTRACK. I TRIED CHANGING IT BUT WHEN I PLAYED THE ALBUM IT AUTO CHANGED RIGHT BACK TO SOUNDTRACK.

Arranged, composed and produced by Keiichi Suzuki this OST is incredible. The movie itself is an excellent take on the blind swordsman Zatoichi. If you watch the movie then you will have a greater appreciation for the soundtrack but the OST easily stands alone.

Max Romeo & The Upsetters - War ina Babylon (1976)

2011-01-02T19:10:00.003-05:00

Kingston's "tribal war" between the two major political parties and their associated gangs and soundsystems inspired a lot of historically profound and universal music, but this record towers above all. Max Romeo's simplistic Rasta preachings of peace, love and justice border on silly and naïve, but his voice is incredibly endearing, and Scratch's production is practically flawless. Devoid of his stranger dub stylings found on records like Heart of the Congos, To Be A Lover or Love Thy Neighbour, all we have here is his greatest bouncy riddims, fiddled with just enough to perfectly compliment Romeo's righteous vocals. "Chase the Devil" entirely deserves its place in the highest echelons of the reggae canon, the title track is just as dread, and the rest is still gorgeous, if not quite as fierce. Not just the best reggae LP on Island, not just the greatest Scratch produced LP, not just one of the finest reggae records ever made: it's an absolute landmark in Western popular music.

The Alan Parsons Project - Tales of Mystery and Imagination (1976)

2011-01-01T18:55:00.003-05:00

Tales of Mystery and Imagination is a extremely mesmerizing aural journey through some of Edgar Allan Poe's most renowned works. With the use of synthesizers, drums, guitar, and even a glockenspiel, Parsons' shivering effects make way for an eerie excursion into Poe's well-known classics. The instrumental "Dream Within a Dream" has Orson Welles narrating in front of this wispy collaboration of guitars and keyboards. The EMI vocoder is used throughout "The Raven" with the Westminster City School Boys Choir mixed in to add a distinct flair to its chamber-like sound. Parsons' expertise surrounds this album, from the slyness that prevails in "(The System Of) Doctor Tarr and Professor Feather" to the bodeful thumping of the drums that imitate a heartbeat on "The Tell-Tale Heart." "The Fall of the House of Usher" is a lengthy but dazzling array of musicianship that keeps the album's persona intact, while enabling the listener to submerge into its frightening atmosphere. Without any underlying theme to be pondered upon, Alan Parsons instead paints a vivid picture of one of the most alluring literary figures in history by musically reciting his most famous works in expert fashion.

Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Slow Riot for New Zerø Kanada (1999)

2011-01-01T15:48:00.004-05:00

A low hum is the first thing heard. It's nearly an inaudible sound, like the opening of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony. Soon other instruments join and overlap: strings, guitar, and glockenspiel. For a while, the listener hovers in a mist feeling the musical waves ebb and flow, warning of impending danger. In these moments, uncertainty breeds and devours the weak, swallowing them whole. This is probably Mile End, the location alluded to in the liner notes of the Canadian ensemble GodSpeed You! Black Emperor's Slow Riot for New Zerø Kanada. Mile End is described in detail, and the influence of this locale on the recording of the Slow Riot must have been immense. In fact, the best way to describe this album is as a direct result of Mile End's setting: the abandoned buildings, haunting forest, burned out railroad cars, and empty train tracks. All of these physical images pervade the tone of this album: they are its sadness, beauty, and anger. The darkness is there too. Once immersed in Mile End, it's near impossible to find your way out. The darkness limits your freedom, and at the same time hides you from the rest of the world. You are alone and it is both frightening and liberating. As for the music, there's really not much to say. If this description of Mile End appeals to you or intrigues you then it will be a worthwhile listen. "Moya," the album's first piece, is a lot like weathering a torrential downpour: torn between moments of uncertainty a final deluge occurs absorbing everything in its path. The second piece, "BBF3," is a history lesson set to music, a story of dysfunctional government, militias, and human rights. This one album spans the emotions of terror and delight in 30 minutes. The same feelings of fear and triumph found in Beethoven can be found here, and there is perhaps no better endorsement for such music.

The Zombies - Odessey and Oracle (1968)

2011-01-01T13:57:00.007-05:00

Odessey and Oracle was one of the flukiest (and best) albums of the 1960s, and one of the most enduring long-players to come out of the entire British psychedelic boom, mixing trippy melodies, ornate choruses, and lush Mellotron sounds with a solid hard rock base. But it was overlooked completely in England and barely got out in America (with a big push by Al Kooper, who was then a Columbia Records producer); and it was neglected in the U.S. until the single "Time of the Season," culled from the album, topped the charts nearly two years after it was recorded, by which time the group was long disbanded. Ironically, at the time of its recording in the summer of 1967, permanency was not much on the minds of the bandmembers. Odessey and Oracle was intended as a final statement, a bold last hurrah, having worked hard for three years only to see the quality of their gigs decline as the hits stopped coming. The results are consistently pleasing, surprising, and challenging: "Hung Up on a Dream" and "Changes" are some of the most powerful psychedelic pop/rock ever heard out of England, with a solid rhythm section, a hot Mellotron sound, and chiming, hard guitar, as well as highly melodic piano. "Changes" also benefits from radiant singing. "This Will Be Our Year" makes use of trumpets (one of the very few instances of real overdubbing) in a manner reminiscent of "Penny Lane"; and then there's "Time of the Season," the most well-known song in their output and a white soul classic. Not all of the album is that inspired, but it's all consistently interesting and very good listening, and superior to most other psychedelic albums this side of The Beatles' best and Pink Floyd's early work. Indeed, the only complaint one might have about the original LP is its relatively short running time, barely over 30 minutes, but even that's refreshing in an era where most musicians took their time making their point.

2010-12-15T10:09:00.000-05:00

I love MF Grimm's music. This album is kinda goofy since he talks about murder and selling drugs but as the Gingerbread Man living in Candyland. The beats are nice and Grimm has some of my favorite lyrics. The album cover really does tell the whole story about this album.
