\ni’ve written about jake trussel aka dj c<\/strong> twice before (here<\/a> and here<\/a>), but i make no excuse for keeping the bandwagon bumping and thumping. dj c blends ragga, breakcore, dancehall, dub and throws it in a turbo-changed blender with a few tablespoons of his own secret ingredient (which is oft referred to as ‘boston bounce’) . his label, mashit, has brought us a collection of some of the finest examples of this bastard genre – all of which are available for download at mashit.com<\/a>. take time to digest the entire catalogue – each release is of premium quality so it’s almost impossible to single anything out. start with ‘crazy baldheads’ (above) and keep going from there<\/a>.
\nyou have to admire the generous nature of the label – in giving so much away for free, i would hazard a guess that we’re more likely to purchase a release when it next comes on sale, or go and see these artists when they’re next playing in town. it’s an old argument that i’m not going to re-run, but you get the idea. as an aside, you know the story of downloads killing music? in the six months to june 2006, the australian recording industry association reported a growth in physical cd sales of 17%; total growth including downloads was 5.8%. (source<\/a>)
\naside no.2: much like the prospect of going ‘carbon neutral’ (e.g. putting something back into the environment for every particle that you pollute), maybe we should go ‘music neutral’? for every track we grab for free, we restore the balance with a purchase. just a thought…
\nwe can certainly return the favour to dj c and friends right now – there’s four (count ’em) releases out now which i urge you to track down and open your wallet for.
\nfirst up, there’s a collaboration with jamaican mc jonny p <\/strong>(get a time-limited download of one the versions above) on shockout’s latest release ‘seaga face and pj body’ – with jonny p having a swipe at women who bleach their face for a purely cosmetic rationale. on the flip is a version featuring kid606. more info at tigerbeat6.com<\/a>, or buy at boomkat<\/a>.
\nthere’s two collaborations with chicago ragga-vocalist zulu<\/strong>; the ‘animal attraction’ 7″ on community library<\/a>, and the excellent ‘ransom the senator’ four tracker on death$ucker<\/a> (myspace download link above). zulu is a talent to keep our eyes skinned for, check out his own blend of an original track (‘spread the word’) with timberlake’s ‘sexy back’ above.
\nfinally, there’s a digital-only 6 track ep available on cozy music entitled ‘traced milk’. in a break from what we’ve come to expect, this collection apparently presents a more downtempo dj c, “a series of short beat poems” and “chilled out goodies”. release info at cozymusic.org<\/a>, download details at mashit.com\/djc<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
