SpaceGhostPurrp – Mysterious Phonk: The Instrumentals (Free Download)


SpaceGhostPurrp is a rapper and producer behind one of 2012’s strongest albums. As well as standing at the head of one of 2012’s most secretive and fascinating instituions, he’s literally created his own hieroglyphics of rap history, combining elements of Southern gothic literature, Miami bass and DJ Screw to forge a sonic and lyrical world dark, absorbing and unique.
His debut came out earlier this year on 4AD, who re-mastered cuts from previous free mixtapes ‘NASA’, ‘God Of Black’ and ‘Blackland Radio’. Where once these tracks were lo-fi and oppressive, the polishing process made the sonics glitter, revealing sublime hidden depths in the dark, gleaming tracks.
Now, 4AD are releasing this album as a free download and limited edition vinyl album. Free from SpaceGhostPurrp’s raps – however absorbing they are – the tracks are revealed as the mini-masterpieces they are. Standing between the functional funk of the humid body slam of southern jam music and the obsidian-souled star-eyed pieces that they are, it’s an astounding listen which counts as one of the year’s best instrumental albums of any genre.

REpost: Nataliya

Did I ever tell you about the time Nataliya took me out to go get a drink with her? We go off looking for a bar and we can't find one. Finally Nataliya takes me to a vacant lot and says, 'Here we are.' We sat there for a year and a half, until sure enough, someone constructs a bar around us. Well, the day they opened we ordered a shot, drank it, and then burned the place to the ground. Nataliya yelled over the roar of the flames, 'Always leave things the way you found 'em!'

The U.K. extreme right is undecided on who to hate: Jews or Muslims?

The battle for leadership of Britain's far-right took a bizarre twist this month when the British National Party, long the most prominent racist group in British politics, issued a detailed report accusing their main rivals, the English Defense League, of being the “useful idiots” of “neo-cons” and “ultra-Zionists.”
The report authored by Nick Griffin, the leader of the BNP and member of the European Parliament, reflects the growing split in the far-right in Europe. A new generation of nationalists is trying to shed its neo-Nazi image. They are not anti-Semitic, they claim – and are focusing their campaigning against Muslim communities instead.
The report titled “Exposing EDL,” which has been published on the BNP website along with a 48-minute video of Griffin presenting its findings, has caused a stir within the far-right. It accuses the English Defense League and its leaders of being in the pay of “ultra-Zionists"...

TRIGGER WARNING: One-eyed fascist moron!

After several months of in-depth research and analysis, Nick Griffin used his main speech at the recent conference of the Alliance of European National Movements to expose the push to hijack and manipulate nationalism.
His speech, made in the form of a Powerpoint presentation, reveals a wealth of facts that have never been brought together before.
The text of Mr. Griffin’s in-depth report on the individuals behind the stunning true story of the attempted takeover of nationalism in Britain will be published here very shortly. In the meantime, please send the link to his speech to everyone you know who cares about the future of nationalism and keeping Britain out of other people’s wars.
Hmmm! 'Months of in depth research and analysis'? Powerpoint! *sniggers* Support 'our boys' in Afghanistan do we Nick? Er exactly whose war is that one? 
Here's another moron...nice legs btw Stephen, sorry Tommy!

Beastie Revolution


Beastie Boys Remixed; 100% Reggae Riddims, Dancehall, Roots, Digital Dub.
Mixed by DJ i.e. of Up-Cut Sound. Giving proper respect to the legendary B-Boys,
inna Reggae flavor. Bridging the two powerful sounds of the Beastie Boys with the Power and Sound of the dub backbeat. All remixes were performed live and mixed down in a 'dubplate style' with a hope to give an organic mash up without making it glossy and overproduced. House party style! It's been a rough year with the passing of Adam Yauch so I found it necessary to celebrate life in the Rasta way, with Music.

A Troubling Chant on the Convention Floor

An interview with Bvdub

...People who say they only make music for themselves, if they release it, are liars. And I won’t make that lie. Yes I make it for myself, but I make it just as much in the hopes that it will connect with another human being… if I didn’t want to communicate it to someone else, why would I even need to translate it into music? Of course I do so because I want to at least make an attempt to share the thought with someone else, and hope that they can relate. For me, that is the whole point of music – for someone else in the world to understand you, even to a small extent, and even for however long a song, or an album lasts. It’s a way of attempting to share your experience as a human being, and know you’re not alone, that there is someone else out there who feels the same as you, and sees the world through the same eyes. I just say what I feel, what I know, and what I believe – and any time another person somewhere in the world can connect with that, or we can somehow share a moment through that communication, that’s what matters to me. And just like life itself, time moves on, you change, and your way of looking at life changes with it – and so do my techniques, sound, and the way I approach things… and with that, I am constantly experimenting, and pushing. I’m proud of the fact that every album I’ve ever put out pushes something… in some way. It may be part of the same overall story, but it’s always a new chapter, and in my eyes, always better than the last.
