Interlude No.1: Gambittized

A few weeks ago I visited one of my favorite blog sites chiefofaffections.blogspot.com and seen a video post that stuck with me for awhile. Anytime I was having a bad day or one of my "pause of creativity" moments, I would play this video. It was created by a lady name Nina for the "Bova International Festival Of New Images"(BovaImagesFestival.net). Most of all my samples are from inspirations....so why stop just at "crate diggin'"?

My result of this inspiration, the beat I flipped from it.

Soultape Level 1...zip file version

I didn't know until recently that a rar file is different from a zip file, so below are both the zip file and the rar file because I got a few people telling me they couldn't open it.

Instrumental Project Vs Vocal Project

I'm having a battle with a few people and even alittle with myself. I've gotten mostly good responses about the "Soultape" project. Even to maybe say that a few people are looking forward to it.

Some people (in person) hit me with...
"...what's the point of putting so much work into just instrumentals?"

"...its half-ass to do a project with no vocals of your own"

"..no one wants to just listen to beats"

:/


....I would almost understand if I just took all my instrumentals (I don't know why but I don't like calling my beats, beats...because there is using a feeling in the instrumentals I guess) and threw them together and called it a project.

That is not the case or this would of been completed awhile ago. This is a zone I'm building. Its actually a feeling....more than just a mood but a zone. Another world of music and sound.....its my world and I'm opening the door to you. You are invited in. Sit down or take a look around....it doesn't matter if you walk or sit because either way you will feel the experience. The only question is, are you willing to open your soul to music? Opening you soul to the experience of music? If so...stay awhile...

In other words, enjoy the project when its finish. Listen to it while driving around, going for a walk with your I-pod/Zune, sitting at home relaxing...just enjoy music if its in your taste.

Just because its negative of my vocals doesn't mean it doesn't have life, soul and purpose.

Vocals does not make music. Feeling behind music makes music.
As proven by J Dilla.
Thank you friend.

4-5 From '85

That's gonna be the name of one of my projects.
4-5= April 5th
from '85 =year of 1985
...my birthday
Anyway...

Sunday was my birthday and it was pretty good. BBQ'd out back of the house, smoked alittle bit. Pretty nice and chilled day.
Been in pain kinda on and off. I have a muscle problem and sometimes I'm in pain all day. No cure, only gets worst with age. I'll explain more about it some other time.
Uploaded this instrumental, check it. I'm pretty happy where I am far as making beats goes. Just need to get the money for this little homemade studio that I'm going to try to put together. It won't be easy but it beats paying $180-$200 an hour for studio time. Any local cats around my area (DC/B-more/northern va) that like my beats hit me up. I'll give you some....no charge. I'm just for the music right now.

New instrumental.
