Hardworking veteran producer The Dirty Sample has teamed up with rapper Ol’ Gorilla Bone for this insightful track titled “Red Rum”. The track is as moody and cinematic as they come and we get to hear Ol’ Gorilla Bones’ unapologetic look at the world around him. He reminds us that while things can be crazy and unpredictable, we just have to keep our heads up and do what we must to live a full complete life before our time is up.
“Red Rum”, is the second single from Ol’ Gorilla Bones x The Dirty Sample’s Revenge Vol. 2.
The Dirty Sample has been in hip hop for over 20 years in a cave hidden somewhere deep in the Kootenays. Or so they say. The one sure thing is how he got his name. “I love the crackle and the crunch of dirty vinyl,” explains the elusive Northwest silverback of his DJ Muggs-like fascination with dusty vinyl first discovered after buying a sampler in ’98 to construct the beats his then 3-year-old rapper alter ego, Planit, wasn’t receiving from other producers. Now, 30+ albums in, he has a catalogue that includes instrumental works, remix projects, and collaborations with the likes of Roc Marciano, Guilty Simpson, Myka 9, Kirby Dominant, Moka Only, D-Sisive, Merkules, Snak the Ripper, Touch, and many of your other favourite rappers. His biggest hit to date is Raw Produce, the compilation album he produced and released on Phonographique in 2015. Raw Produce received positive features from XXL, Mass Appeal, Complex, 2DopeBoyz, and elsewhere, thanks to key single “Three Sixty-Five” with Roc Marciano. The Dirty Sample has also released albums with a variety of alter egos, including Planit, Apeface, Crash Silverback, Two Blue Apes, and most recently, Ol’ Gorilla Bones.
