DON’T SLEEP: Jonti “Firework Spraying Moon” (prod. by Jonti) [SINGLE]

I was listening to NTS Radio earlier because the homie S Type had a live set where he played some exclusives. After his set was over I heard an incredible song from someone named Jonti that the DJ said was available for free on the Stones Throw site.This sounds like the type of track you put in the score of an indie movie. Once I found it, I played it for 30 minutes straight to get it out of my system so I could finally make this post. His “Firework Spraying Moon”/”Begone Slumber” 7″ drops in August but his LP “Twirligig” doesn’t come out until the Fall. There’s a video for it as well. Enjoy (or don’t)…

DON’T SLEEP: Keor Meteor x DJ Ivan6 “Cornerstone Cashiers” [BEAT TAPE]

Keor Meteor and DJ Ivan6 previously dropped one of my favorite instrumental projects and/ or beat tapes of 2011 in “The Manchurian Candidate”. The Parisian merely got together with DJ Ivan6 and some more friends to drop the equally ill “Cornerstone Cashiers”. Don’t sleep on this…

DON’T SLEEP: Slopfunkdust “Beat Fanatic Vol. 2” Preview [SCREEN CAP]

According to Beat Fanatic HNIC Slopfunkdust this is how the upcoming “Beat Fanatic Vol. 2” is shaking thus far (according to him it’s not even finished yet). Take a look at this:

That lineup looks downright insane. If you don’t remember how ill “Beat Fanatic Vol. 1” was then I feel sorry for your mothers. We played that album for 6 months straight on the Scrunchface Show during it’s infancy. We need to get Slop on the show soon. Maybe even this Tuesday? Fuck it, why the hell not?

DON’T SLEEP: Paradime “Beefeaterz” (prod. by Apollo Brown) [SINGLE]

Paradime. The first time I ever heard the name Paradime was back when I was a fan of Federation Records when S.U.N., Da Brigade, Paradime, Eminem, Bizarre and Da Ruckus were killin’ shit between 1998-2000. Paradime has been working on his new album for quite a while now (which is understandable cuz dude is busy) and to reward us all for being so (not) patient, he’ll hit us off with a new jawn every Friday. Since I’ve been sick I was late to post it. The track is “Beefeaterz” and it’s produced by our extended fam Apollo Brown. Paradime is also peoples with the big homie Hex Murda so you already know what it is. Download “Beefeaterz” below…

DON’T SLEEP: DJ Rafik Slays The Native Instruments Maschine [BEAT VIDEO]

I saw DJ Rafik (AKA that DJ in all those Native Maschine Traktor Scratch Pro demo videos) murder a Maschine live on video over @ Turntable Lab Radio yesterday. I  just figured that it’s high time I shared it with the rest of the class…

DON’T SLEEP: Small Professor “Beats & Rhymes Jawns” [BEAT TAPE]

The homie Small Pro who recently had birthday just dropped this bangin’ ass beat tape yesterday called “Beats & Rhymes Jawns”. If you ain’t feeling this then you need to get a soul transplant or some shit. Straight up. Don’t sleep on Small Pro. I’ve been trying to tell y’all since 2006

DON’T SLEEP: Dexter “Gimme No More (Psycho Theme)” [SINGLE]

There was this ill event in Germany called “Beat Fight” sponsored by Berlin based Splash! Magazine. It featured a gang of my favorite producers, problem is that all of the coverage I saw of said event online was usually in German. All I could glean from the event was Dexter of Melting Pot Music won the whole jawn. The extended version of the winning beats will be dropped officially on July 29th but there’s a pre-sale going on @ the MPM Store right now. Don’t sleep!

DON’T SLEEP: Thriftworks “Raki Taki EP” [INSTRUMENTAL PROJECT]

Thriftworks has been featured on Producers I Know quite a few time in the past, the last project being his epic “ZenZero” release. His newest EP “Raki Taki” is more of the Dupsteppy, bass heavy, wonkyish production we’ve come to expect from Thriftworks. Don’t sleep on it…

One.

DON’T SLEEP: BMB (Beat Maker Beat) AKA Space Kid “BitterTruth (In Love)” & “LAbryinth (Demo)” (prod. by BMB) [INSTRUMENTALS]

DON’T SLEEP: Munoz “New Shit” [BEAT MIX]

Munoz is one of our extended family Hypedog Hip Hop‘s favorite young producers. One day he’ll destroy the Red Bull Big Tune (provided there’s ever another one). The young homie is also 15 so he still has time to make the entire Hip Hop production world quake in it’s boots. With no further ado I present the 15 minute mix “New Shit” (provided it embeds properly). It didn’t. Just click the link provided HERE. Or watch the Youtube video embedded below:

DON’T SLEEP: Fathom 9 “Blue Notes From A Brown Soul Vol. 1: Sounds 4 Sojourners” [INSTRUMENTAL PROJECT]

Fathom 9 JUST sent me a link to a Carminelitta post about said project (which dropped yesterday) not too long ago. I had to sit down and give “Blue Notes From A Brown Soul…” a real listen and it goes without saying that this isn’t absolutely brilliant. I wouldn’t term this a beat tape, more like an instrumental album consisting of compositions that exist for no purpose other than listening and appreciating the music. This projects asking price is only $3. Given what I heard, it’s worth at least 3 times that amount. Support those that make quality material as opposed to buying that drek on the radio when it becomes available on iTunes. Rant over. DON’T SLEEP…

One.

DON’T SLEEP: DJ Jazzy Jeff x Ayah “Notorious” (prod. by Jazzy Jeff) [SINGLE]

It’s been a long wait (slightly more than a year) but the DJ Jazzy Jeff x Ayah album “Back for More” will get a proper release on July 12th, 2011. Here is the official lead single “Notorious” via DJ Booth.net. This is ill. Can’t wait for the album to finally drop…

DON’T SLEEP: So Crates & Sour Beats “Hippie Sabotage Vol. 2” [INSTRUMENTAL ALBUM]

I had just finished hearing the previous project I’d posted and I visited Rap Ohne Lizenz where I saw the cover art for “Hippie Sabotage Vol. 2” and it caught my eye from jump. I pressed play and it sounded as good if not better than the cover looked. Salute So Crates & Sour Beats for “Hippie Sabotage Vol. 2” being dope. Salute Stephanie Iadanza for the ill cover. DON’T SLEEP…

DON’T SLEEP: The Legitimacy x Dom McLennon “Decktales: Volume 3” [BEAT TAPE]

I heard this jawn earlier today on The Soul Dojo before The Scrunchface Show got uploaded to the site and iTunes around Noon but I had to wait before I handled business with my first round of posts to get to it. I present to you all, The Legitimacy x Dom McLennon “Decktales: Volume 3”. This is dope. Don’t sleep…
