Straight from "Never Ran Never Will" Brownsville, BRNGTN passed through the studio a couple weeks ago to talk about his newest project, the Rhymes and Riddims EP. Growing up with Carribbean parents, BRNGTN heard nothing but straight tunes in his household, the classic sounds of Jamaica. When he grew up, he decided he wanted to rap over them - and it's a beautiful thing. In this episode, we taste some snippets from the EP, and pepper it with some original reggae tunes off the same riddim. To cap it off, a lovely #shantytown exclusive from BRNGTN over the Billie Jean Riddim. EZ Rock!

#1428: Return to Light (feat. dub-for-light)

$

NJ-based producer Dub For Light came back to the show a couple weeks ago (you may remember he first appeared on the show in March). This time he came with loads of hardware and analog equipment in tow to do a live dub session for our listening pleasure. He did not disappoint - but I'll just use some words Steady Bloggin' used to describe the set:
He assembled his complicated schema of wiring, said a few words of introduction, turned on one of his buttons and then then room suddenly pulsed with bass. For the next half-hour he was hunched over the controls like a mad scientist, tweaking knobs and fiddling dials with wild abandon, cackling maniacally as sparks flew between his fingers and flickered in his hair. Waves of deep chunky dub poured forth from his hands, sound filling the room like air gushing into a vacuum, engulfing us completely in pure awe, shaking the building to the very foundations.

If that's not a ringing endorsement, I don't know what is. Check out the epsisode and read the full review by Steady Bloggin' here:

Celebrated my birthday in fine style with some of Shanty Town's best guest selectors and vinyl collectors. All my good friends came to play a few records. And if that wasn't enough, Thunderlions and Mr. Lee G came through to bless the mic, even Jonny Go Figure had to hol' a vibes in a lovely singjay fashion... Needed to add an extra hour to this episode, because too much vibes. That's three hours of Shanty Town. Fulljoy.

The man called Hardware straight outta East Flatbush, Brooklyn came through to put it down a couple weeks ago. We talk about his come-up chattin and deejayin', runnin the streets as a yout' with his uncle Mad Lion (of Boogie Down Productions fame), and get into a freestyle over the Sleng Teng and Tempo riddims (dem MAD). Check out his mixtape "The Store", now available on DatPiff.com and be on the lookout for the second one, "Cut Keys", coming very soon!

COMIN' STRAIGHT OUTTA NORCAL! ...A chill brother named Azad! From a massive called One Wise Sound! No attitude here, though. This cat is humble as humble can be. All the more reason to give him a warm welcome to his new place of rest, none other than Brooklyn NYC. I had him come rinse some tunes on Shanty Town, and it was troublesome. We talked about the differences between East and West Coast and his crew out in Humboldt County (and yes, he dropped a dubplate or two.) Give thanks, Ras!
