I’ve been aware of Taurus Scott for quite a while now. His recent appearance at the return of Beat Society @ Tammany Hall included his Native Instruments Maschine 1.6 x Traktor live demo exhibiting some of his slaps that will more than likely appear on his upcoming SoulSpazm instrumental LP. Furthermore, if you’re interested in booking Maschine master Taurus Scott for a live beat set/demo then hit him up @ irockthespot@gmail.com. Check this shit out:

Onra is one of my favorite producers, his instrumental albums and production occupies a fair amount of my iTunes libraries (“Chinoiseries”, “Tribute” (w/Quetzal), “The Big Pay Back” (w/Byron The Aquarius) “1.0.8” his 7×7 All City Beatstrumentals entry & “Long Distance”). Onra discusses his “Long Distance” tour and few other related matters in this video here since it refuses to imbed. Sweet!

My brother is named Buctayla and he is half of a production team called Hellsenda Productions that’s been in existence since 1993. I’ve seen him go from using a Boss DR 550 & a Gemini DS 1224 to mastering the Ensoniq EPS 16 Plus & ASR 10 to murdering the Akai MPC 2000 XL. I spent months poring through hundreds of beats, digitizing files & converting them to mp3’s. Then I narrowed it down to 32 beats & used the cover art for a compilation that we never dropped back in 2004. This is a collection of 32 unreleased instrumentals & beats that were bought and never fully paid for or were set to drop on a gang of albums that never came out over the years.
Without further ado, here are several Buctayla beats made on an ASR-10 & MPC 2000 XL between 2000-2006 that some heads had no clue what to do with since the whole beat culture didn’t really exist like it does now. Enjoy and if you want to use any of these tracks hit me up @ poisonousparagraphs@gmail.com to arrange something:

Daedelus returns with a full length project due April 11th (April 12th Stateside) titled “Bespoke” that will be released via indie giant Ninja Tune. I can’t even begin to list all of the old classic Ninja Tune & Jazz Fudge releases I copped going back to the late 90’s. If you’re unfamiliar with Daedelus’ back catalog (which is missing the incredible “Righteous Fists Of Harmony EP”) or his work with his wife as the group The Long Lost then you should read this piece about the LP I saw up on Smashcartel a while back. I’ve heard the album, it’s amazing. Expect to hear even more Daedelus in the coming months on The Scrunchface Show. This I command! © Serpentor

I’ve been aware of the producer called Nangdo from the Netherlands for a while now but I didn’t have a project of his to post up anywhere until now. Last week Nangdo posted up a gang of his unreleased back catalog on Bandcamp and named it “Lost Beats 2001-2006”. The sleeper must awaken © Paul Atreides

The Dallas, TX duo A.Dd+ (Paris Pershun & Slim Gravy) is produced by the homie Picnictyme and a while back they had a Kickstarter campaign to fund the recording of their new project “When Pigs Fly”.

That real shit. Whatever “real” means to you. Shout out to Rosalinda & ’em. Don’t sleep.

Here are the new visuals for the track “U.P.S.” off of the collaborative Boog Brown & Apollo Brown “Brown Study” LP that dropped on Mello Music Group last year.

This N.B.S. jawn “Champion” produced by Canadian beatmaker Keenotheraphy comes off of the “Free Trade Agreement” mixtape but if you slept on N.B.S.’ 2010 album “The Prelude” then you need to remedy that issue.

Back in February, I received a link from Vaughn Garcia of the DMV collective M1 Platoon containing some selections from his upcoming beat tape “No 2 Pint Talkin'”. Once it was completed, he sent me a link and I really liked what I heard. I was waiting for the full project to be posted up on Bandcamp before I did I post on it but Vaughn ran into some computer issues. I can relate so I decided to offer the full project via Producers I Know so the public can finally hear it as it intended to be heard. I present to you all, Producers I Know x Metro Kids Ent./Loudpack Productions presents Vaughn Garcia “No 2 Pint Talkin'”. Enjoy:
