Who Is Mike..., uh, what's his name?



Sorry/not sorry for the 2x post today.
I was just listening to ye olde iTunes in shuffle mode and it cued a song i hadn't heard in a while by Hint Hint called "Natural Collegiate".
light bulbs illuminated above my dome and i lifted a couple of breaks.
i slowed it down a ton and added Mr. Mike Jones and the Ying Yang Twins who are all apparently looking for a "badd bitch".

let's hope they find one.

Mike Jones and Ying Yang Twins - "Badd Bitch" (No.1 Mix)

No joke.

The World Can't Touch Ghost



It's late october, it's getting colder, and the winds are blowing in a scarier air. In light of the upcoming Hallow's Eve, I made a little bit of a trick-or-treaty track with the help of Ghostface Killah (a.k.a. Pretty Tony) and his verse from Wu Tang's "Mighty Deadly" song.

peep it: "Might Deadly" (ghost meets zombie mix)

late,

No.1

slow

its a little slow around here dudes. I've got some shit that will be done soon. my computer and my time have both been tied up programming lovewhip background tracks. maybe a requiuem remix for cassette is what is needed. I'll report back with whatever i come up with.

BiG DiGiTS TONIGHT FOR FREE!!!!




seems appropriate to post a song along with this shameless self-promotion, so i picked this one: Travelling Thru Time

the "Behind the Music" of this recording is that, this is how it sounded when we left Mr. Lord's recording studio in South Boston, but this is not the version that ended up on the Mister Records Comp III.

we are saddened by this, and do not endorse our track that is on this illustrious comp, but you should go and get it anyway for all the other superrad boston bands on it.
