As we promised in an earlier tweet, here is the stunningly beautiful summer tinged groove from the Pharcyde, released in 1995 and taken from the amazing album ' Labincalifornia '. The track was produced by J Dilla. I had actually forgotten about this classic track but was reminded again on Saturday night when I heard it in a club I was in in Paris. Sadly the crowd didn't seem that fussed (it's Paris) but it brought back some great memories for me.]]> text/html 2013-06-02T13:44:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4983191/scienze-charlie-brown-ft-blu/

Behold: the lone photo of me to ever appear on the Passion of the Weiss. In the words of the RZA on Wu-Tang Forever, this is like a comet. Or to paraphrase another eccentric superhero, once the face got revealed, game got real. The reason is that on the latest episode of Shots Fired , Nocando and I welcomed Self Jupiter of Freestyle Fellowship and Fatlip of the Pharcyde. If you know me or my 13-year old self, this was a coup almost on par with going on a date with Cindy Crawford.

We have some very exciting news for you this morning, as the Pharcyde has been added as the headliner of our SXSW showcase. That's right, the Pharcyde!

Room516 Q&A: Whitesquare For the second installment of our Q&A series we flew across the Atlantic and sat down with Whitesquare at a busy caf in Rome (none of that happened). All jokes aside, Whitesquare is easily one of the most consistent producers weve come across. The Italian beatmaker has set the bar particularly high for himself and he still pumps out jams on an astounding basis. Through remixes of such acts as Disclosure, Kendrick Lamar and Joy Orbison, hes gotten some serious attention from numerous labels. It really comes as no surprise [...]]]> text/html 2013-02-24T20:40:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4798173/the-procussions-today/

Winding through to the end of Dilla Month i only thought it would be appropriate to blog this mix i put up about two weeks back. This is the first in a three part series of mixes I will be doing to say thanks to easily one of the most talented and forward thinking minds period.

James " J Dilla " Yancey would be celebrating his 39th birthday todayhad he not tragically passed away on Feb. 10, 2006 due to complications related to Lupus. The proud Detroit native remains one of the most talented and versatile artists of our time, as he showcased his abilities to rap, sing, DJ, compose, and play multiple instruments over his legendary career. Today, on his birthday, we're taking a look back at 20 of our favorite Dilla beats of all time. Making this list was extremely difficult, to say the least.
