Episode 006: Modern Funk Flavor

I love it when another episode of B+C Radio pops off. In this episode DJ R-Cade presents Modern Funk Flavor. DJ R-Cade is bringing the funk in a proper way. He’s grabbed everything from Curren$y, Proh Mic, Termanology to a Max Kane remix of Al Green. Modern Funk Flavor has a chill vibe with energy that gets you dancing… Even for those of you that don’t dance. One way or another R-Cade dropped a mix that will get you moving. Download B+C Radio: R-Cade presents Modern Funk Flavor here. Check out DJ R-Cade on Twitter and NOAFF. BIG thanks R-Cade for bringing that modern funk to our ears. And a BIG shout out to Teeko.

event, update / Comments Off

THIS IS A MUST…AUG. 7TH Boombox Producer Showcase Vol. 8.  I have never felt so strongly about going to an event before.  I just have to say, if you don’t go to Boombox: Producer Showcase Vol. 8 you must be trying to save your house from a fire.  The lineup the Boombox crew has put together is ridiculous.  Ras-G, 14KT, Dert, MNDSGN, F.A.M.E. and DJ sets from D-Fib & GroWeyez.  If you haven’t seen or heard about these folks google them, ask a friend, search Beats+Crates, but do what you have to do to understand this show is going to be EPIC.  BIG thanks to the Boombox crew Inka One, Ben Diggin, and One Man Jazz for putting on dope events.  And I’ll see you all there.

Episode 002: Space.Mind.Grind

The fam went all out on this one.  J1 aka THE DEER got heavy hitters Max Kane & Teeko, and they killed it.  I met these cats a while back and they have changed my whole outlook on live performances.  It’s some other level-ish.  Max & Teeko are 2/3 of F.A.M.E. (Fresh Analog Music Experience), and half of 4OneFunk.  BIG shout to my man Malaguti (of F.A.M.E.).  Space.Mind.Grind is Beats+Crates Radio’s latest installment.  Space.Mind.Grind has tracks from JimiJames to Black Spade, so you know you have to crank up the volume on this one.  I can’t tell you how many times I’ve played Space.Mind.Grind before writing this post.  Download B+C Radio Episode 002: Space.Mind.Grind here.  Read more for tracklist.  Also check out F.A.M.E. -TruthPics.  BIG thanks to Max Kane & Teeko for killing this one.

F.A.M.E. – TruthPics

album, download / Comments Off

F.A.M.E.’s TruthPics has the B+C record for the number of times played back to back…4!!!!  Teeko, Max, & Malaguti are three down to earth and cool cats the make up the group F.A.M.E..When I got the email, I put it on right away and I haven’t played anything else today.  I’ve seen F.A.M.E. (Fresh Analog Music Experience) live a couple of times when they came to L.A., and it truly is an experience.  F.A.M.E. sets up gangs of equipment and plays it ALL. They raised the bar for live performances, so go catch them in your city.  “Lightly sweetened with tasteful turntablism and delicate vocal subtleties, this collection pays light to characteristics of truth using a wide range of styles and feels. Resulting in a colorful variety pack of future funk and hip-hop soul.”Teeko

TruthPics is down right feel good music. Determination is one of those joints that puts you in a good party mood, and everyone’s having a good time. No matter who you play TruthPics for, you can’t go wrong.  To make this even sweeter, TruthPics is just a glimpse into the full length album Come With Us (summer 2010).  Find F.A.M.E. on YouTube MySpace, Twitter, wherever because these cats are the future. Download F.A.M.E. – TruthPics here.  BIG BIG thanks Teeko, Max, & Malaguti for dropping Fresh Analog Music Experience on B+C. (Thanks for our 200th post)

Starship 27 took off with no delay on Saturday. The listening party was held at Fatbeats (LA) and hosted by Houseshoes. There were performances by Snowman Jack, F.A.M.E. (Teeko, Max Kane, & Ivan), and Dibia$e. The party didn’t stop there. On to BOOMBOX!!! Boombox is coordinated by the one and only Inka One. Oddisee hosted the event for the evening with special guest with flows Trek Life. There were DJ sets by J1 aka The DEER, HouseShoes, Inka One, One Man Jazz, DJ Sean O, & GroWeyez. With all that talent you think it would be enough, nope. They also had beat sets by F.A.M.E. & Dibia$e. And you know Dam Funk did a little of everything. It was dope. Everyone stayed until Grand Star was closed. It was a great night. Just watch the videos!
