SPECIFICS - MY TUNES 12" (2007)

Iv'e hade some trouble with the mail lately, that's the main reason for not beeing active on this blog. About a month ago I ordered a big bunch of records from UK, as I always do, but after a few weeks I realised that they wouldn't show up. My records were probably stolen on someone on the post terminals.

I can't stand to think about some fat guy wearing my "jazzy sport" t-shirt and drewling over my records that he'd never appreciate as much as I would. People like that go straight to hell, together with the guys that invented Serato!

This is why I'm going write about an older 12" tday, although the sound is still fresh. The group is "The Specifics" and they released this record in 2007 on the Japaneese label P-vine. The record is as I like it, soulful, jazzy and great to sip on your chilled Hoegaarden to. The beats is the work of a very talented producer called "Think Twice" and the lyrics by an Mc called "Golden Boy". The lyrics is OK but they weren't the main reason for putting my money on this little piece of plastic. For me its always been, and always will be, for the beats.

Beats are forever!

PAT D & LADY PARADOX - STEP OFF/TICK OF TIME (2008)

British rap, how can't you love it? Correct me if i'm wrong but I think this is the first female MC havin' a record posted on this blog. And she deserves all attention she can get, not because she's a girl, but because she's an uplifting wave with fresh topics on the dead toxic sea, called hiphop 2008.

The beats, the beats! Made by a producer called "Pat D", who's also from the island in the west. Great soulfull sound. It gives me that old feeling back, you know before serato, ipods and other things from hell. I really recommend you to give the label, "A bridge too far", a virtual visit and listen to the tracks under "music".

The record is released on the classic japaneese label "P-vine", just like we thought.

If you like this you should check out their full lenght album called; Kind of Peace!
