    how do you sort your vinyl?

    I'm sitting on about 2000 records in Brooklyn. Need to sort through them, put them back in the right cases. Thinking of sorting chronolgicaly this time, normally I sort by genre. Problem is if I need to DJ, picking out records would be kind of difficult if they're sorted by year. also...

    werd the fuck up... funny, looking back at that old thread, I never used to write shit, I had a phobia of posting while high (which was pretty much all the time). Now I'm on a hiatus from bud smoking, and I think I posted 300 times in the last three months. Now if I can just find that happy...

    leaving mistakes in

    IMO, one of the things you don't hear enough today is mistakes. Every note autotuned and quantized, it's makes music sound fake and plastic. Sometimes an artist will play one bad note, or come in on the chorus too early. I watch this show on VH1 called Classic Albums, they talk about how some...

    Artist vs. Engineer

    What up fam. Wondering how people deal with the following scenario: Basically, we all have responsibilities to our family/work/school/etc. Outside of that, you get to put in some time on music. Now, we all realize the quest is the reward, you're always learning, you can always improve...

    Words of Wisdom?

    Of all the artists/musicians/creative people you've met in your life, what are some words of wisdom you've been told regarding playing/recording/composing music? For me, two of the wisest words I was ever told was: "be original" I think a lot of people are trying to sound exactly like...

    Freekey Zekey / Dipset article

    Interesting read about the president of Dipset getting out of jail: http://www.villagevoice.com/music/0701,winn,75427,22.html The thing that trips me out is that when they were putting out records on Epic, they ended up 1.4 million dollars in debt to the label. That means all those...

    Planet Rock cover

    This track called "Planet Rock Pt 1" has some of the biggest drums I've heard in a minute. I bought the 12" single earlier today. The MP3 isn't as thick, but it's still pretty damn dope IMO. Jazz version is impressive too: http://www.myspace.com/breakoutmusicgermany They got props from...
