Dopegraffhead is dangerous. The man has never committed a "so so" beat.
Anything we find of him is pure classic/vintage/chopped breaks/jazzy vibes goodness..
It ain't different this time.

TODAY'S VIDEO UPDATE - 21.02.2007Our good japanese friend Anchorsong is at it again.
"Anchorsong is the solo project by Masaaki Yoshida from Tokyo, Japan.He creates music with AKAI MPC2000XL and KORG Triton right in front of the audience.
Some people say, "To see that he constructs music little by little on the stage, reminds me of a painter drawing on a white canvas."Anchorsong is basically the fluid project to create interesting works by collaborating with other unique artists.
This time, he collaborated with amazing string quartet (2violins, viola, and cello) "Great work.

TODAY'S VIDEO UPDATE - 10.02.2007"This fascinating, brilliant 20-minute video narrates the history of the "Amen Break," a six-second drum sample from the b-side of a chart-topping single from 1969. This sample was used extensively in early hiphop and sample-based music, and became the basis for drum-and-bass and jungle music -- a six-second clip that spawned several entire subcultures. Nate Harrison's 2004 video is a meditation on the ownership of culture, the nature of art and creativity, and the history of a remarkable music clip."

Big Swole is one of the coolest cats making beat videos. He makes everything look so simple and on top of that he edits his movies making them as informative as it can get without being annoying. Crazy drums, gift for grooves and musical talent is BIG SWOLE is. Respect.

This is so classic you have to respect it.
Dopegraffhead does not waste time on editing or cute lighting. The man makes beats. Great ear for melodies, jazzy vibes and crate diggin abillities make him one of our favourite picks for this month.
Pure beatmakin, no VST bull nor Triton plastic.

There is something about Jacpot's videos that makes you wanna watch them.
This cat is not only a very creative producer but a character at that.
His filmmakin always goes beyond the usual boring "imakebeats I am deaf" type of thing. To add to this...Jacpot is dropping his album soon and try all to support the man when it is finally out. Great Job J.

This is kinda fresh.
We always wonder how much time it takes to put something like this together ..whenever we attempt to do that we end up making 5 beats and rolling a doobie.
Ben has done a great job in this one, the timing is funky at times, but this has the flavour of realness, live one-take crazyness.

This little flick makes you wanna sell your car and run over to your local vintage synth dealer to get one of those noisy, phat sounding beasts.

All we can say is..this is a pretty crazy set up Krewcial has built for him self. The XL, the 60..korg and etc.
On the other hand, one must say that so much more could be done for the sake of this video with all the gear and the creativity Krewcial most likely has. The beat is predictable, mixing is kinda sad, but overall funky work!!
