This mix was recorded live last week at an amazing event called "The Avant Garde" that featured an neo-soul type vibe & atmosphere with great local soul artists, poets and a live band! The song selections were chosen by Niles and mixed by myself!

Below is a new video from an interlude of the album
For fans of Beat Tape Shenmue, I decided to release an alternate version of this lp with all the instrumentals used for remixes (an a emcee featured track), and share 5 unreleased instrumentals that weren't selected for the final cut. I did share a few of them on a Beat Tape Shenmue Rejects mix but now you can download them & listen to them forever, lol. Hopefully this instrumentals will inspire your next freestyle cipher, while you're doing homework, washing the dishes, playing other video games, surfing the web or to have in the background while you're building converstation on your radio/podcast show.
Recently I recorded a mix of songs that I've been feeling. Lots of new songs mixed in with much older ones. No concept or theme or specific genre, just good vibes! A little sloppy with the blends to be honest, this one was spur of the moment and spontaneous.
On Saturday I recorded of mix of my favorite Fat Jon productions and beats! Check it out you want to hear some smooth abstract beats mixed in a few rap tracks from Five Deez and other emcees Fat Jon produced for. Part 2 will be next week!
I'm working with a very talented emcee by the name of Niles. If you want to know more about him, listen to the track, he gives his life story in his verses through lyricism & tight delivery. Download the track for free from soundcloud, and spread it around!!
Sup y'all, yesterday I went live on mixlr to record the first episode of my new music podcast/mix series called "Live @ Blast Institute"! It will be a weekly (or bi-weekly) show of me playing songs I like (with a genre or vibe concept), or making beats or mixes live, listening to records etc.
