my lament.



Featured Songs playlist by D NTZ

i'm trying to give some shine to one of my best friends, and one of my favorite producers, DNTZ. i don't think his myspace account allows me to embed shit here, but i'm working on getting him to fix that. anyway, click the link, and check him out. "dave's lament" is something he composed for me when i was "away"... dark times indeed. anyway, check him out, and if your feeling his stuff (pause) drop a comment on here and let him know. he comes around this corner of the internet from time to time. peace.

  2. I probably won't get to check this out until tommarow. Looking forward to hearing it though.

  3. yeah, thanks. he does some off the wall shit sometimes, but he's got a lot of talent. he's a punk rocker by design, and when we were roomates back in the day, i gave him a copy of 36 chambers. he bought a sampler a week later, and went to work .

  4. I never understood the appeal of wu. To me they always sounded like something only people heavy into hiphop would appreciate. I went to a method man and redman show a few months ago, and there were 18 year old white girls in the crowd throwing up W's, rapping every word. Shit was wild to see.

  5. wu tang is like gospel to white kids. maybe it's the karate thing, i dunno.. but i know that me and my crew WERE wu tang in the late 90s. i can't explain it, but even white kids who aren't hiphop heads, dig the wu.

  7. Yo, I really liked the choice of sounds and the first thing I was expecting, given the concept of the track, was a high contrast of sounds and it's certainly done here. I might be wrong, but I sense some Dubstep influences.

    He's talented, like you said. I would appreciate the track way more have he done some tweaks, but that's more personal taste than anything so, as far as execution, pretty good job.

    Not excellent or impressive, but pretty good job.

  8. Yes I would have to agree he's pretty good. Maybe he should make beats for Shyne and f@#$ it write the lyrics too...*thinking of a way to write horrible s#@% and get paid a lot for it*

  9. yeah, so I put some new shit up on there.

    @hopp - I keep the tweaks to a minimum cause i like to give room for an mc. I don't really do much work that's meant to stay instrumental, if I did shit would be in outer space, on the moon and shit, but you'd have to have a head full of acid to rhyme over it. So I keep the mutes and edits real minimal. Abortman has a mix of some outer-space type bananas shit he (or I) could hook it up with if you want to hear me drop any sense of restraint with the tweaks.

    Honestly, I'd like nothing more than to just drop a mix of my own shit for d/l, but I don't want people picking through my shit without some kind of oversight - not that I think my shit is all that, but some people do, and some people have no scruples and I don't wanna have to track some fool down on the other side of the country and catch a beef for brandishing a machete at some retard for saying something dumb over one of my beats.

    Man... anyone getting follow-up notifications on these comments is probably gonna hate me pretty soon...
