Pretty far behind on this one, from 1999 and 2004, but who cares about time really? I would be surprised if Busta Bust hasn’t already had this stuff for years and years.

A collaboration between Dan the Automator and Prince Paul of De La Soul fame (producer). Plus a smorgasbord of other folks: Company Flow, DJ Shadow, DJ Quest, Del tha Funkee Homosapien, Miho Hatori, and many more. This is one of the best collections I have heard in a long time.

You may have already heard some of it as well! So you don’t have to feel like a total newb! or noob, or nooblet, or nooblesaurus rex, or noobletron, and so on. . . the song “The Projects” (feat. Dave of De La Soul and Del the Funkee Homosapien) was featured in Ocean’s Eleven (the club scene where Rusty (Brad Pitt) is toying with the bar tenders inability to hear anything).

Some highlights for me include the song mentioned above, as well as “The Truth” and all of the little filler that takes ridiculous clips from an episode of the Chris Elliott sitcom Get a Life entitled “The Prettiest Week of My Life.”

This is a going to be a new series of what should be very frequent posts. Simple really, what new (update: or old) stuff I am listening too. Because I selfishly believe I have the greatest musical taste of anyone with a website called andrewandoru.com. I will try to provide some useful information as well as links to appropriate places to give a listen, and get some information. That said:

Where has this been all my life? I don’t know what the deal is this winter, but I am finding new great music every single day, often multiple times a day.

Best remix I have ever heard. . ?

Listen to this remix, then check out the rest on iTunes (link will open iTunes).

Then do whatever you can to see a live show. And let me know when your going. . .

It is incredible how all of the things I like start to connect to each other, music, animation, people with similar tastes seem . . . not gravitate towards one another, just float around relative to one another, watching and influencing, and creating where best needed.
