Let's build the new world of music together starting with social media.
What's your Instagram? I'm @JPhardboiled
And yup that's me playing guitar, I like real music and combining it with hip hop or whatever musical style.
I don't like that hip hop music really isn't skills or creativity based, it's marketing based so everything we hear isn't the purist. Just like with breakdancing FEW people know about BOTY Battle of The Year and other REAL breaking crews and shows, but the REAL is about 100X better than the pop...
Top 6 finalists, not bad for just a hip hop producer lol. People wonder where I get my rhythm? Breakdancing and DJ battling and all the soul music by REAL musicians associated with that. That doesn't include garbage electronic music of today. FUCK dubstep.
Check it out and connect with me...
1 of the great composers of our time who did Gladiator, Batman, and Inception is having a remix contest. Check out my entry, make your own entry, and vote via Soundcloud! Have fun. I threw mine from left field with my flamenco guitar, EDM, and hip hop MPC 2000 XL style sampling influences...
I've been off from DJing, but am preparing to start performing again with an MC so I gotta get the cutz back. Here's some scratching to my own beat. If there are any other DJs let's start a scratch thread:

Why is it old school video games had the illest music? Anyhow Vega's theme was supposed to be flamenco style, and I haven't heard anyone play it that way so here is Vega's song the way it was meant to be played by a live flamenco guitarist:
Check this crazy mixer out! It lets you mix computer files like they were vinyl. Its a dream come true. The price tag is up there though.

I was looking at some Avalons and Focusrites but the price is out of this world. For anyone who has a quality preamp, is the sound difference your hear using your preamp worth 1 or 2 thousand dollars? How do they compare to lower end pre amps?
Sup Illmuzik fam,
I just thought I'd share a mash up mix I did w/ ya'll. Lot's o' hip hop, rock, and dance music... I'm not looking for feedback or anything, just enjoy!

Does anyone here use Acid Pro to make mixes? I'm trying to burn a mix to cd but it only burns as 1 long 30 minute track. I tried using markers to seperate each track but it didn't work. Thanks for any advice/replies.
The amazing 42 yr. old Randy Couture got knocked out in the second round yesterday. Then he announced his retirement. He was an inspiration to many people as a fighter and person. He was grounded and spoke often about how his family/friends were what made him who he is. Like Tupac, his heart...
This Saturday Feb. 4 they're going to go at it once again! I hope Randy wins cause it seems he is more of an of a fighter... He's not really that arrogant, teaches his craft to others, and is just a hard worker... BUT, he's older 40 something and Chuck has those lethal eye pokes! I like Chuck...
