Cajun 26

This weekend I'm releasing a small flood of beat-tapes. Most of those beats are from old projects that were cancelled, a few got pulled at the last minute, passed on, a few of them got lost and recently found....and some I just held on to for the right beat-tape.

"SoultapeLvL6: Cajun 26" is soulfully-aggressive. Some beats are deep ambient like while others give you the "mean face" look while listening. 26 refers to my current age...my birthday was on April 5th...so in a way this is my birthday project.

If you want to record over some of the beats, feel free....just credit me wherever the track is presented.

*Current place, current time*
People are getting together and planning out their new year's event. Speaking about the good & bad times of 2010 rather it be personal memories, events that has happen in the neighborhood, city, state, country....the world. The news, the arts, the failures, the successes of such.

*Some where in Atlanta, GA...a dark room, red glow from a set of Beat By Dr.Dre Headphones*
.....I'm going thru folders of beats, tracks, mixes, everything that is digital piece to a form of music. The process of putting together an attack-like string of project releases. Somewhere in that process "SoultapeLvL6: Tape Noise(beat-tape)" came about.
LvL6 has my underground hard snares, hard kicks, gritty sample sound. There is a certain that I'm mixing it...trying to give it that legit "beats played from a tape" sound without crashing the the total quality. It has been working out great to be honest. I'm banking on releasing this near the end of January..

1/01/11....I finally release my "DontSayIDidntWarnU" project...then the attack of beat-tapes will go into effect.

Artwork: SoultapeLvL7

Last night was a rather epic painful night in regards to my muscle problems. But I manage to be a little productive. This year while working on a few different projects (some released, some have yet to be released) some how I've managed to build a collection of beats that weren't used for anything. I think I've deleted maybe three out of the 30+ that I found and forgot about. The three that I deleted were crap...bad experiments that some how managed to get exported out of FL Studio 9. The other beats however were good...worth sharing. So they became apart of separate beat-tapes that I'm sitting on for 2011.

This particular beat-tape that I designed the cover above for has become a personal favorite. "SoultapeLvL7: Pain In Stereo" is a collection of beats that I've made while in a high level of physical pain because of my muscle disorder. At some points it has a dark sound, at other points it's like a signal for help. I'm going to release that project on February 11th, 2011.

There's another beat-tape that I managed to put together..."SoultapeLvL6"...but at the moment I have no explanation for it. The vibe that tape has is...I don't know. It sounds nice though.

2011 I'm going to do my best to release at least one beat-tape a month. 2012 I will retired the "Soultape" series until further notice.

Just felt like sharing with my fellow bloggers ;)
