Dirty South hip-hop trio CunninLynguists have announced dates for their Strange Journey U.S. Tour in support of their upcoming release, Strange Journey Volume Two.

After a hugely successful European run spanning 10 countries this past spring, the U.S. portion of the Strange Journey Tour will extend for 5 weeks with fellow road warriors Grieves along with DJ/producer Budo, Los Angeles-based artist and frequent QN5 collaborator Tunji as well as Sweden’s own international hip-hop icons Looptroop Rockers, who will be taking part in their first-ever full U.S. tour.

Featuring strategic guest spots from all over the map, the release Strange Journey Volume Two picks up where Part One left off — chronicling the life of the weary traveling musician with cuts like the sleepy Seattle lament “Close Your Eyes”, featuring Geologic of Blue Scholars, Grieves and Macklemore and the Cali banger “Running Wild” featuring Evidence of Dilated Peoples and Bay Area rap legend E-40. Other guests include Sean Price, Tonedeff, Freddie Gibbs, Poison Pen and production from J-Zone and Blue Sky Black Death.

Hudson Mohawke: 7 RedBullRadiate LuckyMe Mixtape

Eclair Fifi in photo.

So we’re really feeling this HudMo mix. Lots of styles and interesting twists on tracks that we know and love, but we like them even more with nice editing all over the place. Chop chop. Music reborn and getting the pitch/tempo up is a must.

Favorite part of the mix right now is from 19:00 in to 24:39. There are definitely lots of gems throughout.

Enjoy if you haven’t already heard!

The Leadership Conference: Briefcase Rockers Showcase – August 11, 2009 – In Review

We had a lot of fun last week going out to see a B.E.A.R. showcase at Jimmy’s Lounge in Hollywood. We didn’t get to see the whole show, but everything we heard was great. Would you expect any less from The Briefcase Rockers though? The crowd was an interesting mix at the show and the music that B.E.A.R. pushes is unique. We said it before and we’ll say it again: everything we’ve heard from The Briefcase Rockers is music worth listening to.

We got six video clips of the show (after the photos), two of Juan Huevos–who came all the way from North Carolina to make it out to the show–and four of ERAs. It was too bad that we couldn’t get more, but that’s all spilled milk now.

On Juan Huevos, we think he is a dope live MC and his performance was get-up and kept the crowd locked-in. Bringing a cover of Avril Lavigne, and getting half-naked towards the end of his show, it’s a performance we’ll never forget. However, we like Juan Huevos’ flows and instrumentals and find his style exciting even without the show and dance. Huevos’ is upbeat and different. Good things.

People like a good show, but if there’s not substance to the music, you could put on the best show in the hottest venue out there and it would be like eating a burnt grilled cheese sandwich at a five star restaurant.

Nathaniel Eras, or ERAS, really rocked out as well. Twiddling knobs and having fun while he played, things stayed engaging. Even though more abstract, glitchier music and melodies are more of an acquired taste, if you spend much time on the site you’ve probably noticed that we love experimental music in general and especially where technology and music meet. ERAS had a high-tech gadget-driven sound that we always enjoy hearing like sipping on a unique-flavored foreign drink.

At any rate, the show was hot. The videos are a bit dark and aren’t the best representation of what the show was like, especially since we didn’t manage to record all of the artists that performed, but that’s why you have to go out to these events for yourselves. We look forward to future shows from B.E.A.R.: rock, rock on.

PANTyRAID are Josh Mayer aka Ooah of The Glitch Mob and Marty Folb aka Marty Party. They make brilliantly futuristic hip hop, in their own words:

PANTyRAID is a true cross over project – hip hop, dub step, electro-crunk… all done right with hard booty shaking instrumentation.

Their debut album “The Sauce” is available on Marine Parade in September.
