HiFadility – The Gateway EP

/

The Gateway EP by HiFadility FREE EP DOWNLOAD: http://iamhifadility.bandcamp.com/album/the-gateway-2 The Gateway HiFadility is pleased to present The Gateway. Representative of the portal a traveler passes through before a journey, the Gateway is an introduction to the laid-back vibe and direction of the The Traveler, HiFadility’s full length project slated to come out in early May. The Gateway symbolically opens a space for the traveler that allows for emotional movement. Evolving past older methods of production and thought processes, The Gateway sonically provides support for moving ideas and emotions. So, after you, lead the way in entering the gateway…. About the Artist HiFadility is an urban intellectual, producer, and jazz pianist committed to hip-hop and reviving cultural inspiration. Philosophical thought and the sounds of his Quisqueya ancestry have an extreme impact on the way HiFadility hears and creates his self-composed cerebral beats. He is influenced by the likes of quintessential hip-hop producers Pete Rock, DJ Premier, 9th Wonder, and the jazz greats, Miles Davis, Theolonius Monk, and Duke Ellington. Using a combination of various harmonies and rhythmic patterns, HiFadility seeks a place among the greatest musicians. Creating a whimsical and laid back sound that touches the soul like J-Dilla’s , HiFadility’s chill instrumentals tell a story with imaginative process reminiscent of André 3000 and Big Boi’s Speakerboxxx/The Love Below. Stay tuned for his new upcoming LP, The Traveler in Early May. HiFadility is from nowhere as well as being a citizen of the world, follow for what is sure to be some dope fire @iamHiFadility Social Media iamhifadility.bandcamp.com iamhifadility.tumblr.com twitter.com/iamhifadility

SPNDA x EvillDewer – “The Jeffrey”

/

“You should take a hit of this Jeffrey…it’ll calm you down!!” Cool Collective Reps Music Group and Scope Urban Apparel Present “The Jeffrey”, a collaborative album from mc SPNDA and producer EvillDewer. Drawing its title from the fictitious “drug neapolitan” being passed around in the movie ‘Get Him to the Greek’, The Jeffrey represents a variety of influences and experiences smashed together and blown out like smoke. The project displays SPNDA’s depth and diversity as a lyricist while EvillDewer brings it all together with his signature psychedelic sample driven soundscapes. The first official solo project for SPNDA, 1/3 of Retrospek, serves as an introduction to the persona and lyrical range of “Hologram 2 Beardz”, an alter ego we will certainly be seeing more of and also marks the beginning of a new chapter for CCR. released 20 April 2013 Rhymes by SPNDA @hologram2beardz thehologramwith2beardz.com facebook.com/hologram2beardz Sounds by EvillDewer @evilldewer evilldewer.com facebook.com/evilldewer Coolcollective.net ScopeUrbanApparel.com Grassrootsgrind.com 2013 | CCRMG Cover art by Sir Froderick Physical, Single Covers and Design by politicalpirates.com

Catch Wreck – Is He Ill?

/

“On Saturday, April 13, myself and friends of mine filmed a video for a song I recorded two years ago called ‘Is He Ill?’ We filmed and cut this video days before the horrific events during the Boston Marathon took place. Naturally, while watching everything unfold we had a difficult decision to make in terms of releasing this and how people may receive it. We decided we wanted to release it in the spirit of uplifting our city. Despite all of the horrific images we are being bombarded with, let us not forget how to have fun and enjoy our city. My deepest condolences go out to the victims and the families of everyone who’s suffered as a result of the horrible events of the past week. Coming from a city as strong and resilient as Boston I know better then to let terrorism prevent us from releasing our art. Hopefully we can all laugh and enjoy this after a tense week.” – Catch Wreck Catch Wreck http://catchwreckmusic.com @catchwreck Video directed by Rene Dongo | Dongoson Films http://renedongo.com Cool Collective Reps | CCRMG http://coolcollective/net Scope Urban Apparel http://scopeurbanapparel.com @scope_apparel Grassroots Grind Group | GGG http://grassrootsgrind.com @grindgroup Special thanks to Tina, Leedz.
