…And I’m having a hard time getting to sleep, so I decided to post. Shane was over today and we recorded the vocals for our track “This Is Total Take Your Soul Music”. This is going to be my most ambitious piece of production yet. It’s going to be the longest hip hop song I”ll have produced, and probably the most experimental beat I’ll have made to date. I’m planning on working on the beat a bit more tomorrow night, and hopefully I can get the instrumentation done on the second verse out of four.

Anyways, that’s a short post, but I’m definitely heading back to bed.

So on Sunday I was chillin’ at home, just doing me, and I go to put on some tunes because I need my tunes.  So I go to turn on my itunes where I have a crap load of tracks that I’ve downloaded or just imported from cd’s.  I see that my list is a little too short and I don’t know why.  Instead of having 1,184 songs in my list I only had 210.  I found that kind of strange but didn’t think anything of it.  Knowing that I can’t get my list back to the way it was unless I import everything back into my itunes, that’s is exactly what I did, but this time I didn’t go with the same line up.  I thought why don’t I change it up a bit.  So there were some albums that didn’t make the cut this time leaving me with a lot of space left on my ipod.  So Tuesday after I finished work I went to HMV to see if I could get some new music.

Now I don’t know if you’re aware but Kawlinz and I are huge fans of J Dilla.  This guy makes some really sick beats.  A while back Kawlinz picked up a J Dilla instrumental cd and that shit was off tha chain.  I was like “Damn Motha fucka” This shit is too hot.  Anyway so I’m in HMV and I’m looking for some more J Dilla.  I look in the hip-hop section and I find some stuff.  I picked up the J Dilla Instrumental cd as well as another J Dilla cd named “Donuts”.  I have to say that this is some good shit.  If you want to get blazed, chill and listen to some amazing beats then you have to get this cd.  So friggin awesome. Not only that, I also picked up the new Portishead cd named “Third” which apparently is their first release in about a decade.  I have to say this album is pretty sick too.
