Unless you have a masochistic streak, you are as likely to have election fatigue as I am. However, the end of this highly-informative, enlightening period is near and, before the next president is inaugurated in January, a new slate of empty suits will already be jockeying for 2016. (all of this is, obviously, contigent upon no year-end Mayan nonsense) So, as I opt to periodically do – when I have no other viable or unviable ideas – it’s time to pull up an old Billboard magazine Hot 100 chart and note the songs [...]
Download: BlackoutHipHop.com Presents: ‘Koolade Beats Rocky’ (The Album – Inspired By Bill Conti) Maybe it's hard to believe that after 15 years of creating beats and hits for others, Koolade is finally releasing his first album. The famous and best known Croatian hip-hop producer is presenting his debut album - a master piece called "Koolade Beats Rocky"! The whole idea of this album is in its title, as the inspiration came from the cult movie "Rocky" and the music [...]
Yo no sé a ustedes pero para mí siempre ha sido un poco trabajoso este asunto de hacer ejercicio. Es cierto que una vez que uno llega al gimnasio ya no hay mucho que hacer, y la verdad es que después de un rato hasta comienzas a agarrarle el gusto al asunto. Por supuesto habrá gente que lo vea simplemente como una forma de estar sano y no tenga ningún problema, pero la verdad es que la mayoría de nosotros somos un poco flojos en cuanto a hacer ejercicio se refiere. Uno de los problemas que me he [...]
It's Friday, and who couldn't use a little Fender Rhodes cool-down heading into the weekend?

We all have our own Apollo Creed to face. Bill Conti - Reflections

Ah, horns. What a wonderful group of instruments. What a wonder group of sounds. The sound of the queen walking to her throne ; the sound of the entire army base being lulled to sleep with Taps ; the sound of a legendary jazzman just doing his thang . But horns are really hard to [...]
"Victory" is as epic as it gets when it comes to rap records, and this larger than life feel all started with the sample, and the genius mind of composer Bill Conti. Studying at the Juilliard School of Music, Conti mastered his craft, and was more than prepared when hired in 1976 to compose the music for a relatively small budget film called Rocky . As we all know, Rockybecame a mega-hit, grossing more money than any other film that year, winning 3 Oscars (including Best Picture), and eventually becoming one of the most iconic motion pictures in American history. The [...]

Ok so I might be one of the later posts of work by him, but i've been listening to his sweaty tracks on my iPod for quite a while now, which therefore doesn't make me late, just greedy.

Paul McCartney, Shirley Bassey, Carly Simon - merely three acts to have been chosen to sing a theme song for an installment in the James Bond series. The long-running string of films about the spy 007 is not only one of the most successful and beloved franchises in movie history, the series had also produced a succession of high-profile theme songs - many of which had become sizable hits. In 1981, Scottish singer Sheena Easton was one of the brightest new stars in pop music after her debut earlier in the year had produced the #1 hit [...]
