an interesting morning...
Now Playing: the pounding of my own head...

to say the least, it's been an interesting morning.

beth and i were getting ready for work and day care drop-off duty when she mentioned that we needed to schedule some time together over the weekend. i thought she meant a date night - she actually meant a half-hour to discuss some things. i told her that it all depended on when i was getting together with a friend on saturday. shortly afterwards, she began to tell me how i have been rejecting her ever since we got married, that she's unhappy with how she looks, and about how we need counseling in order to address the problems that we've been having in our marriage. i didn't even know how to respond to all of this. prior to this going down, i was thinking to myself, i'm still in my robe and i need to get dressed so i can get simone ready to go to day care.

like i said, it's been an interesting morning.

she said that she would take simone to day care this morning. once she took her outside, i finished getting ready, jotted some notes onto a pad, set up the microphone and recorded a voiceover for endless shouting matches with yourself. whether it will actually be released remains to be seen, because it's pretty personal...more personal than i have ever dared to share on that show. once the microphone was put away, i sat on the futon in the living room and read my Bible. after that, i got on my knees and began to pray, but the words wouldn't come.

i opened my eyes to find that i had fallen asleep on my knees, my head resting on the futon. i bolted upright and ran to the nearest clock. it said 9:40 a.m. - i had planned to catch a 9:38 train, which meant that i was going to be later than usual. i made a call to the office, but they were cool about it. when i got to work, i noticed that my wife sent me a text message on my cell phone: "did you mean date night? i only meant 30 minutes." gotta love misunderstandings.

like i said, it's been an interesting morning.

two shows have gotten me through today: my love for music and a dark jungle dj set by woz. the former chills me out while the latter gives me the spark that i need to keep fighting. i desperately needed both elements today...

BSOTS 062 - blends session: grooves for a global village...
Now Playing: arthur jones - "CRM"
Topic: my podcasts

recognize game, people: two-thirds of the songs featured in this blends session are from the podsafe music network and all of them are choice, in my opinion. outside of that, we have a pair from ioda promonet, one from foundation media, and a personal pick to represent for my people around the way.

covering a lot of ground in this one: music from the states, the u.k, south africa, germany, and australia. hip-hop, house, brazilian-flavored downtempo, futuristic breaks, the whole nine. i think the end result was positive. it's the type of mix that reminds me that music truly is the universal language...

BSOTS 061 - "the vibrations are different..."
Now Playing: in rotation vol. 15 (ejflavors.com)
Topic: my podcasts

mostly promonet cuts this time around with a pair from foundation media and one from the podsafe music network. the voice speaking of setting up a black colony on another planet is none other than sun ra. this is dialogue taken from the 1974 flick, space is the place. if you've never seen it, expect '50s sci-fi colliding with '70s blaxploitation and a heavy dose of egyptian symbolism. fun stuff.

also stay tuned for a public (enemy) service announcement regarding black history month...

BSOTS 058 - 40 from the dos double-o-seven (pt. 3)
Mood:  a-ok
Now Playing: friday night dance party - week #97
Topic: my podcasts

back to the 2007 retrospective, wrapping up the second half of this series. all of the music on this show was provided by the podsafe music network, a site that really shouldn't be slept on. real dope tracks slip in there when you least expect them to, so keep tabs on the pmn in the oh-eight.

the "your mother's so hip-hop..." bit is an excerpt from "what is hip-hop?", a great piece from longtime village voice columnist greg tate. the piece itself can be found on an incredible spoken-word compilation called flippin' the script: rap meets poetry. it's well over ten years old at this point, but totally worth searching for...lots of verbal firepower on that release.

hope my introductory thoughts aren't too grandiose. it's a new year and i'm reassessing certain aspects of the show, particularly who it's reaching and who it's not reaching. i truly believe in this podcast and i want the world to tune in and be turned on by what they hear. to both the new and returning listeners, i thank each and every one of you for taking the time to hang out at camp lo-fi...

BSOTS 057 - blends session: now, that's a FIRE...
Now Playing: top 30 of 2007 (16-30) at ejflavors.com
Topic: my podcasts

hey there. happy new year. it's 2008 and you can expect more blend sessions outta me this year, for sure. with the amount of hip-hop tracks that i found over at ioda promonet, plus the material that i was sent by the good people at foundation media, a continuous mix was absolutely necessary. about a third of the selections in this mix are off the rawkus 50 label, a strictly digital campaign by rawkus records, reinventing themselves for a new generation of hip-hop listeners and a constantly changing music business.

the mix kicks off with a soulful cut from doujah raze, founding member of trilogy records. from there it's on to intricate minds, a five-member crew straight outta alberta, canada. after that, we head down to the "d"...as in detroit, for a track from finale, an mc that j-dilla allegedly referred to as "the best mc in detroit," according to the liner notes on the rawkus 50 sampler. keep an eye out for d. huston's album dropping later this year. if his debut single is any indication of what we have to look forward to, he's gonna be a contender in the game. think twice takes us back up to canada for one of my favorite songs in the mix. as a producer, he definitely has that early '90s boom bap down pat and he proves to be a double threat with lyrics to boot. meanwhile, the together brothers back up the time-tested slogan "don't mess with texas." the houston duo brings a little pimp swagger to the session, flipping donald byrd's "wind parade" with neck-snapping results.

the1shanti lives in brooklyn and helped start the soulspazm imprint for rawkus as well as his own flatbush junction label. interesting quote from his myrawkus page: "Last year, Afrika Bambaataa dubbed me India Bambaataa for being the first emcee to break hip hop commercially in India." pretty damn cool when you think about it. quick stop over to dirty jersey for a sweet instrumental from maleet, which segues into a joint from zimbabwe legit, one of the first african rap groups to gain international acclaim. mike g of the jungle brothers joins them for a guest spot. after that, a pair of instrumentals to add a different vibe: the first from the flavor foundation, the second from modaji (aka dodgy mo). the former has a hint of middle eastern influence while the latter is that midtempo soul, a understated funkiness to it all. can't explain it - it's just hot, trust me.

gotta do better about representing for my heads around the way in 2008. with that in mind, the last part of the mix showcases some freestyle skills via my man baba israel. following that is the first single from duo live's latest album, which features talib kweli spittin' a verse. had to include scavone's joint, which is dedicated to all my heads who have ever been stopped by the police for no good reason. and then there's the cut from mick boogie's dillagence mix tape, featuring busta rhymes doing his thing over dilla's beats. there's so much backwards masking on this version that you'll swear satan himself was rhymin' in a zone, but i'd rather have the radio edit than deal with busta's usual string of "niggas" and "bitches" uttered throughout the track. his usage of both terms is just plain overboard, to the point where he uses them like the rest of us say "man" or "woman." i know i have a podcast and therefore i don't have to worry about keeping it clean for radio and all that, but i wouldn't be able to look at myself in the mirror if i put the dirty version on here. i chose to save your ears from that, and at the end of the day i feel better for it.

closing out the mix is a quick bit from the blastmaster, krs-one, as well as a great introspective cut from ellis (that beat is crazy - dark and kinda paranoid-sounding) and one more mick boogie mixtape selection. sounds like he remixed jay-z's american gangster album using primarily marvin gaye samples. that whole project's available for free download, so if you're curious, just check the track listing below for the link towards the free goods. hope you enjoy this one, and again, expect more blends sessions from me in 2008, be it hip-hop, house, techno, or a mixed bag of different genres...

it's that time again. another year-end retrospective series in the making and i'm feeling pretty good about the way things kick off. lots of heavy hitters in this one, all of them courtesy of ioda promonet.

it's been a while since i had my friends really represent on this show and i don't want to get away from that, so i went back a few years for a seasonal joint from 3rd party. it's an untitled bonus track from a cd they used to sell at their live shows. after that, it's all top-notch joints from 2007. personal favorites from today's show are dj alibi, seun kuti, the dragons, and kraak & smaak. what say you?

for that matter, what was your favorite artist/song/album this year? i want to hear from you - give the voice mail line a call at 206-339-8732 and share your '07 picks with the rest of camp lo-fi...
