REVIEW: Dewey Decibel

.:ALBUM REVIEW: Dewey Decibel -- #BOOMBOXBOOKWORM

After I discovered Dewey Decibel with the tracks Met Her in L.A. and Hello Hello, I have to admit I was quite curious about this mixtape but didn't really know what to expect, apart from a constantly crazy flow and witty wordplay, which seem to be some of the MC's trademarks.

It turns out I was not disappointed as #BOOMBOXBOOKWORM is a way for him to showcase his lyrical and technical skills. Nevertheless, despite this curiosity and interest in Dewey Decibel's talent, I was slightly taken aback after the first listen and didn't really know what to make of the project. I persevered though and listened to it again, and again, and again.

.:INTERVIEW: Eric Lau -- Word Is Bond Exclusive Interview

After Moka Only and Chief last week, it is now time for London producer Eric Lau to be featured here with a very interesting video interview we recorded at the end of 2011.

First of all, we would like to thank the owner of Guanabana, a wonderful restaurant in Camden, London, for lending his space for the time of the interview and providing such a lovely setting. Not to mention, the food is delicious there! It was also a great pleasure to catch up with Eric and get to meet Simon from Kilawatt, and we are very grateful to both of them for taking some time to chill with us and answer our questions....

NetNewsWire %282999 unread%29 20100111 231357 VIDEO INTERVIEW: Exile   Making Beats On A Car RadioCLICK HERE TO WATCH VIDEO

His latest solo project, Radio, was made entirely from samples pulled from LA’s crowded airwaves and is an exercise in patience and scrapbooking. In these 2 pieces; shot at SF’s Different Fur Studios, Ex speaks on getting his start finger drumming, coming up with the concept of his new record, how it was almost titled Car Stereo, and what making beats while plugged into the cigarette lighter on long road trips was like. He then follows that with a couple of rub-your-eyes-is-this reality re-creation of "In Love."

Thanks HipHop Nation

Enjoy
