Gift of Gab – Protocol ft. Samantha Kravitz

gift of gab [Hip Hop] Gift of Gab – Protocol ft. Samantha Kravitz

Bay Area legend Gift of Gab (or the other half of Blackalicious) released the single Protocol this week of his upcoming album The Next Logical Progression that's due in late March via Quantum Projects. Definitely something use over here at the IBF will be looking forward too.

This is the kind of beat that just makes me feel good. It has that old do wop beat and a real simple flow that reminds me of a warm summer's day. GOB brings his typical on point flow to this track while Sam Kravits brings a classic soul feel to the track. This track is a refreshing divergence from the hip-hop that has been coming my way these days. Sometimes simpler is better and GOB proves it.

Mexicans with Guns - Highway to Hell (Ridin Dirty 7" Mix)






Here's a little oldie but goodie for you folks our there. Mexicans with Guns is an experimental multi-genre music producer and laptop musician from San Antonio, Texas. However it you want to get a better idea of what MWG is all about you should check out his bio on Myspace which states:

".. Not much is known about MEXICANS WITH GUNS. Yeah there are the rumors, supposed teenage bandito ...others say he made money hustling suckers in the pool halls. Some people claim to have partied with Mexicans with Guns, drinking tequila shots until the early morning...downing bowls of salsa on a dare. The truth is that most of his history is unaccounted for...kind of a modern day Pancho Villa. What we do know is that this year has been on full blast for Mexicans with Guns. In no time at all, he has gone from selling fruit cups and mixtapes from the back of his El Camino to tearing up SXSW to being touted by URB Magazine as one of the Next 100 Artists. And what does Mexicans with Guns exactly sound like? Imagine listening to a dubstep remix of an NWA track while doing a drive by if you just drank a bunch of lean while visiting the dirty south. Ahh good times. His remixes of Faunts, Animal Collective, and Jogger to name a few, have been heating up the interweb and dance floor alike. MwG most recent release on Exponential Records, Nuts and Bongos, finds him collaborating with the MC’s Cerebral Vortex and Spoek Mathambo (Adult Swim / African Swim) and features the remix talents of Cobra Krames, Ninjasonik, Robot Koch of Jahcoozi, and Raziek (GTO). What’s next for Mexicans with Guns? Avoid la migra (immigration), fight for the cause ( still currently looking for one), and make mas beats that go hard."

Let's hope that he hold true to his promises and keeps making mas beats for us the fans out there. Be sure to watch out for those Mexicans W Guns!

Sigur Ros – Saeglopur (ENiGMA Remix)



Last night when I was riding home on the tram this track finally come onto my Ipod. I have had this track for a few days before it ended up coming up on my playlist and it couldn't have been at a better time. As the track started, the first snows of the year were reaching the city of  Prague and the sounds of silence were slowly penetrating it's streets. As my tram sliced through the brisk winter air I sat in awe as the track progressed. The tracks has a beautiful melodic flow was giving me chills beyond anything the below 0 temperatures could.  The track definitely isn't what I was expecting and  is not one that I wouldn't think to remix into a dubstep track. However, Enigma really creates a great mellow atmosphere that you can really chill-out to. Something I highly recommend for these dark snowy days. Sigur Ross also has some other great mash-ups, including a mix with Mobb Deep featured below. Enjoy!
