Beat Society Makes Triumphant Return To NYC
February 13, 2011
“What the f*ck are you doing here?” must have been the most repeated phrase of the night, usually followed by an “oh sh*t” and an appreciative pound or hug. On a night when many of the music industry’s elite were hopping red eye’s to California for the 53rd Grammy Awards, New York’s Tammany Hall was like a family reunion for hip-hop’s true school disciples.
The occasion? The first Beat*Society producer showcase in New York in almost six years. The producers exhibition featured Don Cannon, !llmind, Khrysis, Buckwild, Nottz and DJ Revolution on their laptops and Maschines showing off unreleased beats, remixes and sample flips. DJ Evil Dee was on the 1s and 2s warming up the capacity crowd which included Hot 97s DJ Enuff, Peter Rosenberg, Sha Money XL, Oddisee, RSonist, Chace Infinite and Vibe magazines Datwon Thomas.
Hosted by SAO and Stef Tataz (congrats on the little one!) the night also included performances by Danny Brown, Malcolm and Martin, Muhsinah, Skyzoo and Rah Digga.
But to truly appreciate how special the night was you need only this one quote from DJ Enuff, who easily could have walked in the building on name recognition alone: “I paid my $15 to get in! Cuz I support ya’ll!”
Keep checking this post as Nodfactor.com updates with videos from the night.

Kev Brown Commentary Vol.1 & 2

Speaking of mellow music…I spotted this over at Oddisee’s blog. His brother Kev Brown has an instrumental project out complete with commentary (aural liner notes I guess) about each beat. Ya’ll on a mission to get me smokin again in ’11, huh?
Drop a few dimes for it at Kev’s Bandcamp page.

Well here it is… has it really been a year? You now, When I first got in to music I did it purely for the fun and excitement of it. As the seasons came an went my hobby transformed into a full on career. The “Odd Seasons” series was a way for me to be creative for no reason other that creativity. That’s why they’ve been free releases. In order to remind my self why I do music, I have to allow some of my works to be created and released for well…. I hate to say it but…. “The Love”

February 1, 2010
From MP:
First off let me say that Diamond District’s “In The Ruff” was one of my favorite albums of 2009. Props to Oddisee, YU and X.O. for making a bangin album.
If you don’t have that you’re f*ckin up tremendously. Support that album!
When Oddisee asked me to remix something I knew I had to bring the heat. Hopefully you dig what I came up with.
Shylow on the scratches.
This remix will also be included on “The Stupendous Adventures of Marco Polo” which drops this June on Duck Down. It will include remixes, unreleased songs and rare productions of mine, so look out for that this summer.
