Kona Triangle
When I got into Bibio I then found out about Lone through myspace. Lone and his friend Keaver & Brause formed Kona Triangle. You can tell Lone is mostly on the synths while it's being sidechained like a motherfucker by Keaver's drums.
Their album "Sing A New Sapling Into Existence" dropped last year, and it's def worth copping.
Incredible, this track gave me chills the first time I heard it...
I was seriously moved by this track. Obviously you have heard the original, but if you haven't heard this version, get it now.I don't know what else to say.
Classic Biggie w/ DJ Premier's Machine Gun Funk Mix
I still prefer the production of the originally released Easy Mo Bee version, but Premier's production is ill and the instrumentals smooth the track out a little. Premier gives the track a little more jazz than funk.

Classic Sample Monday: Ain't No Half Steppin'
Staring every monday from now on I'll post a classic hip hop or electro sample, starting with
Heatwave-Ain't No Half Steppin'
Incredible album most famously sampled by Big Daddy Kane, so classic it turned into street lingo,
Damn that's a smooth beat from a classic sample

Star Wars x adidas Originals "Yoda" & "Skywalker"
Stars Wars is ill, everyone knows that. Remember those 6" action figures that came displayed in that plastic vacuum molded packaging? Well now you can get your kicks in that same pack, like an action figure. Pretty dope.
Props to Adidas for some innovative marketing. Even if the shoes aren't really anything special.

Girls, Listen up...
Jordans will look so much better on you than those vintage cowboy boots or Toms or whatever you are wearing now. This chicks got crazy style, she coordinated those aquamarines with not only her blue aqua fitted but the purple highlights in her hair. Thats so ill.

Wu-Tang Clan, Successfully Fucked With
http://wutangvsthebeatles.bandcamp.com/
It's been a long time since a truly great mashup album has come out. Talk to your average teenager and they probably don't even remember The Grey Album. Since then, what has there been? Blue Eyes Meets the BedStuy was memorable enough that I still listen to it, but I challenge you to name another good mash album. I'm not saying this is the new inheritor to the mash throne, but, it's the closest that I've seen in a while.
Mi Ju: The Next Murakami?
Snatch her shit up now, because trust me, with work this good so early in a career an artist like Mi Ju has a limit near to or approaching the sky
That Grim Reefer
The second installment of Wedidit's We.Transmitted.It mix series. Shlohmo with that dude Dr. Blount. Check out Omar Little talkin over the intro. Bout time a mixtape comes out with some samples from the Wire.

Tang is the Slang, Wu is the Wisdom
Picked up RZA's The Tao of Wu earlier today. Few chapters in and I've been diggin every word of it. The chapter titled "Gangster Chi" opens with the following quote:
"If you let a man smack you in the face, you display power and grace. But if he smacks you again? Engage with wisdom and defeat him. You only got two cheeks."
This impressive collection of the RZA's profound wisdom is a must read for any hip hop head. Stories of Chess battling, project living, and training at the Shaolin Temple, RZA speaks parables that contain lessons on knowledge of self, meditation, and human intelligence.
Ladi Dadi, we like to party, don't make me get money and platinumize my body
Slick Rick is the man, this is undoubtedly true, why does everyone forget about this dope joint with Outkast he did back in 99?
dope beat, fresh style, and big boi. It's an instant classic

Guidelines for the Proper Rocking of Gear
For those of you who are tying to put together that ill'fit but are either colorblind or just too lazy to coordinate your domewear with you kicks, this is for you. Especially feelin these beef n broccoli timbs with the mets fitted. Some New York shit right there.
Just copped those Spizikes and I have to admit this bulls fitted is one of the best matches I've seen yet...
Its nice to have this all picked out for you and whatever but please guys- try not to abuse it. lets keep it original. throw in a bit of your own flavor. Anyone can rock fresh gear, but when you put your own twist on it thats when it becomes an expression of self, an art. inspiration and orginality are what keep street wear alive.
Uptempos are aight, but
Re-retrod eggplant 'posites only a year after they first dropped.... fucking dope
Those icy soles just redefine sneaker fetishism. For all you posite haters, take a look at them on foot,
yeah, you know those are killer. Now I know what I'll be doing this march, camping out in front of House of Hoops in Harlem slinging rocks and performing sexual favors in line so that I can get three pairs of what are arguably the freshest shoe of the oughts.
