guess paul whites plan to release limited edition albums/singles full of cut-n-paste samples (e.g)to get attention paid off then.

lol I'm not sure it "paid off" given that the above is a free podcast

no, but an increase in profile via stones throw is not going to hurt.
i can definitely see the ST fans loving pauls production style.

is paul white also the purple brain?

this purple brain?

am i dumb or do i really have to install itunes to get stones throw podcasts?

yeah this is fucking awesome!

rvng purple brain /= stonesthrow purple brain

"Blue eyed soul at it's best" indeed....not sure why he's on the Stones Throw Records label though.

the aloe blacc lp is excellent as well...

Got word recently that Stones Throw worked out a deal to put together a comp from Little Rock's True Soul Records. I'm so happy about this. Will finlly get to hear the catalog without chancing upon the (way less than) occasional 45 in the local Savers. You'd think being here in Little Rock it'd be easier to come across this stuff.

Damn that Paul white podcast is so good. The Todd rundgren section was unbelievably beautiful

the RVNG purple brain is bumrocks and one other guy

the aloe blacc lp is excellent as well...

yeah "dollar" is great ... stones throw put that out?? heard it on hot 97 one afternoon.

In "why is this on Stone's Throw" news, they're putting out the Anika album apparently. Which is produced by the Portishead guy. It sounds like Nico singing over ESG acetates.

And she covers "Masters of War" and "Terry," one of those "why did my boyfriend have to die on his motorcycle" tunes originally by Twinkle.

wow that sounds better than beak>

Stones Throw totally put out the aloe blacc LP, tho i hear universal have picked it up and will be giving it a big push in the new year...

wasnt feeling the j rocc album. sounded like a bunch of fake dj shadow tracks - not at all what i expected from j rocc as it just wasnt very funky really (liked play this too a bit though). the one sampling nas was great, and the very last track was great. the rest of it though, nah. sounded quite tired. shame as hes such a great dj.

enjoying this a lot lately -

street date Nov. 1

about 3/4 of the production is straight Madlib, with guest appearances/productions by Aloe Blacc, Talib Kweli, Karriem Riggins, Georgia Anne Muldrow, Alchemist, Oh No, Kurupt

Anybody heard 'The Stepkids' album...not bad not bad...

yeah, its a good'un that stepkids album.
only problem is its too short.

ooops .. wi-fi dropout results in mult. posts !
apologies.

Georgia Anne Muldrow's new album drops in March with Madlib producing. First time he's produced a female artist too, I believe.

well he produced a few tracks for NuAmerykah pt. 1

still, this might be something to look out for!

actually went back to strawberry incense on pt 2 yesterday, rad.
i heard the first song from this record & wasn't really feeling it, but'll listen to anything he's doing right now, so still optimistic

I probably should give Olesi some more listens: last time I played something from that album, I was v pleasantly surprised at how much I liked it

Olesi's a wonderful album... in partic, Leroy.

I should have said this will be the first complete album Madlib has produced for a female artist. Lots of potential, hopefully.

well he produced a few tracks for NuAmerykah pt. 1

not to mention the best track on pt 2.

i wasn't too into that muldrow/madlib track i heard, but would kill for a full badulib lp.

GAM hasn't topped Olesi but she's done a lot of good work since. Keen for the new one.

is it gonna be on stones throw? anyone know if its being PR'd in the UK?

not necessarily stones throw but that forge your own chains comp that now-again put out a while back is p incredible

Come to think about it, I don't think Georgia's new one is on Stones Throw.

haha, it isn't - just received a tweet saying she's not been on the label since 2006

Okay so I'm off by several years. Still looking forward to it. Ha!

amazing cover, good beats, passable retro battle verses ... but where's the dolemite?

there's barely any dolemite here except some sampled grunts.

lame

new strong arm steady soundin good

thread bump inspired me to throw on the 10 years comp. now I want weed.

What About You (In The World Today) by Co Real Artists was on my wedding playlist -- sort of my little sly jab at adulthood I guess

has anyone heard this
i can imagine a karriem riggins beattape being just what i need but i don't know, & i feel like it's the kinda thing i'd have to live with rather than hear to suss out

it's as hit and miss and all over the place as you'd expect, enough amazing moments to make it a keeper though. k. riffins and tom tom are both awesome. lots of wonky moog lushness and a bob moog shoutout iirc
