The Journey to Hip-Hop ... Connecticut: Sketch Tha Cataclysm - "Virginia Slim featuring Seme Rock"

Here's another Waterbury, CT native and Antfarm Affiliate that's been holding it down for Hip-Hop from here in Connecticut to brief stints in Minnesota and elsewhere. Sketch Tha Cataclysm is a talented MC. Separates himself from a lot of other artists I know musically and taught himself a lot of ins and outs in recording and mixing throughout the years, from what he's told me in conversations. Definitely a motivated go-getter. Guy doesn't sit still. Don't believe me? Check the shows he performs in. You will most likely catch him without his shoes, a staple of his. Very energetic dude. Haha. Anyways, check out this track he hooked me up with for the "Journey" featuring a vocally gifted beat boxer by the name of Seme Rock.

This joint is going to be on the compilation "The Set Off" my boy Botzy out of Minneapolis is putting out. It features production from me, old school panning and Seme Rock on the vocal cuts.

Enjoy.

Check It ... Raze "One Hunnid"

I intended to post this yesterday but fell into several coma like sleep stints. Before I knew it, it was morning. I wasn't drunk but don't recall going to bed officially last night. Yeah, that's a problem. Annnnnnnnyhoooooo, this is the new (and first) cut from the homie Raze of his upcoming album "Living In Technocolor." The dude is dope and if this track is any indication, "Living in Technocolor" is gonna be serious. Enjoy.

"This is the lead single from the album "Living in Technocolor" by Raze, a member of the group House of M. This album will also be the first official release by the newly established, independent House of Mutants imprint. The album is set for release on June 15th, 2010. The track was produced by Lou Tang for HoM; Co-Produced by Raze for HoM/DreamScale Media."

The Journey to Hip-Hop ... Connecticut: The Rising Sun Quest

This Waterbury, Connecticut MC wasn't planned for today's post but since I caught this off his feed, I felt the need to share considering how I feel about the radio and the fact that they supposedly played this joint multiple times already. I wonder how many MCs/Rappers did the same and if they did better.....lyrically?!

So on Wednesday 5/5/10, I happened to be listening to Hot 93.7 cause they were playing that Jay-Z and Eminem track "Renegade", which is one of my favorites. After the track, the DJs were talking about Eminem representing on that track with lyrics and that artists nowadays don't focus enough on lyrics.

They then said that they had a beat available and if any local artists thought they could deliver lyrics over them, to e-mail Hot 93.7 and they would then send out the beat so the artists could get in the studio and lay down some verses and send it back. (That was a run on sentence.)

So of course, I did what was necessary to get the beat and went into the studio around 9:00pm by myself to get down to business. I stayed up till about 2:00am recording myself, running back and fourth from the track recorder to the booth. I recorded an old verse and one that I had just written earlier that day. I also laid down a hook which was just basically a chant that I do at my live shows. I did the best I could with the mixdown and sent it back to them that night. I didn't want to waste any time so I didn't sweat the fact that I wasn't 100% on the mix. I wasn't sure what they planned on doing with the track and thought they might at least give me a shout out on the air.

Well as it turns out, they played the track on the air around 12:30pm during the Mid Day Workout, I think. I totally missed it but a lot of people hit me up telling me they heard it and showed me and my city of Waterbury support throughout the day. Even the afternoon DJs talked about it, apparently.

Anyway, I wanna share the track with y'all but I haven't heard back from the station on whether it was cool to do that since it's their beat. So I can't give it to y'all for free download like I wanted to but at least you can hear it.
