Description

It's been a while, MacJams. I've finally found some work recently, and its hard to balance a working life with the routines of an unemployed person.
Anyway, I needed some new hip hop in my life, and this spilled out of my recently. It felt good. It's about half samples.
Any rappers interested in taking a crack at this, let me know.

	This is nice I do think it would sound better without the scratch effect in there tho or maybe just less:P nice sitar ! Cool song :) Check out my latest song called Its The French Toast(Colab W/WillBill808)

	appreciate the insight i debated the scratch effect. it's actually a bird sound, and that's what i was going for, an ambiguous is-it-a-bird-or-a-vinyl-record sound. i just had too much fun messing with it, which is why it plays so prominently throughout the song. when i revisit this later, i'll probably take it out. i appreciate the insight. Check out my latest song called Mid-City Funk

	Good to hear you again Josh... I love these eastern mixes you do... I don't hear rap but something Bjorkish would go down a treat here!!! Check out my latest song called Luna Gypsy Heart II (Eternal Firelight)

	bjorkish!? really? i can't honestly say i've heard much bjork, but will go have a listen to now. i more know of her than about her. i appreciate the kind words, tho. Check out my latest song called Mid-City Funk

	Bollywood beats. Cool India/hip hop hybrid. Sitar lines work well with the beat. It would be nice to add some samples of, or find someone who could sing, classical Indian vocals and weave them into this track. Check out my latest song called Phantom Power-Halloween 2009

Artist Info

Name: Josh

I like making beats. The kind of beats I aspire to make are generally funky, dirty, spacey, and largely hip-hop or electronica related. You will also be hearing more flamenco from me, both electronic and classical, as I continue to get a better gras... [see more]
