Thanks to Stones Throw for providing us with such great music over the years. Here's some beats from James Pants compiled onto two different tapes: James Pants - California Download James Pants Beat Archive Pt. 1 I Told You Man, I Carry A [...]
Guys, I don't know how in the HELL I missed this one. Granted its only like 4 days old, but the fact that there was a PART ONE that dropped back in September that I missed completely makes me feel like I've had my internet head in my internet ass for the last few months. For this I apologize. Please don't do the fool like me and download. I'm going to go drown myself in my sorrows now. *facepalm* Download audio file (09-All-My-Love.mp3) JAMES PANTS - BEAT ARCHIVE [...]
What better way to round out the holiday season and kick off the new year than to launch Kick Kick Snare's first mixtape of 2012. Yes, it's that bloody good time of the month. And just because I said that with a British accent doesn't mean we're crass or putting on airs...for it really is an awesome time for me every month to see the handpicked collection of songs selected by our four writers in four different cities. I always love seeing the variety between Kent, Wes, Ed and me. For the five months or so [...]
If you've been even remotely regular in following this blog, our number one shouldn't come as a surprise - I believe I've already bothered you enough with my love of Gang Gang Dance's latest effort (and GGD in general ). I'll leave the list unnumbered because, except for the first 7-8 entries, the rest come in kind of (but not entirely) particular order. And it's not a strictly albums -of-the-year list, as I've included some mixtapes/remix albums/ compilations. Also, I just realised we haven't covered half of this on the blog… Don't [...]

Leave it to James Pants to turn Daedelus 's "An Armada Approaches" into a funky, future ballad. Mr. Pants showed us he's human by releasing a collection of harmless boombap beats . His remix isn't so harmless, but fearless. Where the original was vast, often exploring genres bouncing from one sound to another this mix pushes the funk to the forefront. I think this is a sweet little track that'd work for any "END GAME" credits scene. Hit the skip to listen. Daedelus - An Armada [...]
Dublab? Stones Throw? Daedelus? James Pants? Symmetry? Mandatory posting implied and explanation unnecessary. I am nothing if not congruent (caveat: this may be a Geometrical term that I do not fully fathom). Pants takes Daedelus' "An Armada Approaches" and turns it into intelligent yacht music. The official title is the "Cruise from Here to the Afterlife Remix, conducted by the James Pants Sea Faring Orchestra." Do you think that Rick Ross only listens to Lex Luger symphonies and Barry White records. No. Sometimes, he meets hipster girls with asymmetrical haircuts at Wing Stop (they have vegan options) [...]

Have you ever tried to produce hip-hop beats only to give up? Don't feel bad! James Pants has, too! In fact, he did it for a majority of the 2000s before giving up to create the eclectic tunes he's become known for these past few years. Unlike you, though, he didn't delete his tracks to free up space on his hard-drive. Instead, he went back to his digital vaults and compiled 51 of them to make Beat Archive Vol. 1 , a pretty rad lil' collection of out-there boom-bap that somehow should probably rap over. [...]
Fool's Gold is a breath or fresh air in the world of electronic music. The Los Angeles based group blends Sub-Saharan African music and 80s dance pop to create a uniquely fresh, African-American sound that maintains the grittiness of Los Angeles. I can just imagine the enhancement (along with some Bay Area bud) some live Fool's Gold would bring to a day on Venice Beach or relaxing at an outdoor lounge on Sunset Blvd. One of the good unpretentious, warm LA weather and architecture without the LA attitude, one. Yes, they exist, I swear I am not making this up. [...]
In June we gave away Fool's Gold 's 'Street Clothes' in this mp3 of the day post. Now we bring you the James Pants remix of the song, also free. Compared to the original, it has a cavernous, lounge-y feel. It's kind of what I imagine Fool's Gold to sound on a faraway planet, in an interstellar space bar. I know, you're intrigued now, aren't you? Listen to and download it below.
