The love child of Marley Marl breaks and 20 minute guitar solos, Mr. Rourke's production style is as eclectic as his taste in music. A native Brooklynite (bukka bukka), Rourke began honing his production skills roughly 6 years ago, under numerous (as well as ridiculous) psuedonyms, experimenting in several styles ranging from glitch-pop to more of an abstract ambient sound. Deciding all that other shit was cool, but not for him, our homey re-invented his style once again, this time focusing more on his first true love, Hip-Hop (because it's cool to be cliche). Taking all of the elements he enjoyed from the other styles, Rourke forged a sound not only appealing to the commercial "Chingy" types and the oh-so-critical (despite never puttin' out anything themselves) music snob crowd, but still managed to be as pretentious and self-righteous as the man himself. And he enjoyed that more than you'll ever know. Some of his current projects are several tracks on Noñameko's forthcoming album (of which we don't know the title, but it'll be dope regardless), and a crapload of work with fellow Brooklonian, Spec Boogie, including a couple of tracks on his upcoming album "Introspective", and 2 EPs. All that, and plans for a bootleg mixtape of his own. Is the world ready for such a constant barrage of dopeness? Naw, probably not, but we're still puttin' it out anyway. It's either that, or play Nintendogs all winter long, and how productive is that?
