DJ Maestro @ Lounge Bar Babbar (Zagreb)

Indy — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 13:13:19 +0000

Lounge bar Babbar 13/03/2010 ugošćuje Martijna Barhuis iz Amsterdama poznatijeg kao DJ Maestro. Martjin kao DJ Maestro u svrsi nastupa ne orijentira se na samo jedan muzički žanr s toga su njegovi nastupi jako cijenjeni u svijetu jer kombinacijom različitih muzičkih stilova kao što su bossa, jazz, funk, breakbeat i slični ide prema jedinom cilju a to je nezaboravna atmosfera na plesnom podiju.

Detaljniju biografiju DJ Maestra provjerite u nastavku posta.

DJ Maestro još je od tinejdžerskih dana bio fasciniran muzičkim svijetom, te već od rane dobi pokazuje veliki talent i želju za kreativnim radom koje je prvi put prezentirao svijetu svojim prvim albumom Mesmerize, album koji mu je otvorio vrata prema svjetskoj slavi.

Martjin je jednostavno bio prisiljen stvoriti album jer mu je postajalo sve teže i teže naći pjesmu sa dobrim grooveom, odlučio je složiti album sa pjesmama na koje su ljudi najviše reagirali za vrijeme njegovih DJ nastupa. Tako su neke pjesme bile napisane godinu prije izdavanja albuma dok neke su bile napisane samo dva mjeseca prije ali svaka je bila temeljito isprobana na nastupima. Nakon albuma Mesmerize slijedi suradnja sa Blue Note Records.

Blue Note Records slovi za jednu od najstarijih i najpoznatijih jazz izdavačkih kuća na svijetu osnovanu 1939. Maestro je bio zadužen da stvori kompilacijske albume koji predstavljaju povijest te izdavačke kuće te isto tako ne budu samo za ljubitelje jazz muzike već da ju u isto vrijeme približe mlađim generacijama. Produkt suradnje su tri kompilacije pod nazivom Blue Note Trip koje nailaze na odlične kritike kod publike i kod kritike. Nakon Blue Note surađuje sa Verve Records, EMI i Universal izdavačkim kućama.

Maestro je krenuo dalje upotpunjivati svoju kreativnost osnivajući svoju izdavačku
kuću Dig This! to mu je omogućilo da surađuje sa mnogim priznatim jazz muzičarima ne samo u studiju već i na live nastupima. Trenutno je pokrenuo svoju on-line jazz stanicu(radiojazz.nl) sa ciljem da dobiju radijsku koncesiju do kraja godine.

More B.I.G. tributes

Indy — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 22:55:57 +0000

#ripBIG

So today marks the anniversary, of the death of one of the best MC’S Hip Hop, has ever seen. Biggie Smalls aka Christopher Wallace, aka Notorious BIG…13 years goes quickly right.
So 3 years ago i did a BEST OF BIGGIE mix for my radio show on KISS100. I did the mix 100 percent live, and it came out SICK. It was recorded in 3 parts, live on air, but i recorded a version straight from the desk, with no talking, and no ads, and i pieced the 3 mixes into one file. Impossible to fit in everything, but i tried my best.

Ludacris Scene From ATCQ Documentary

Indy — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 13:46:51 +0000

A Tribe Called Quest x Beats, Rhymes & Life. Actor and filmmaker Michael Rapaport has been working on his documentary Beats, Rhymes & Life: The Travels of A Tribe Called Quest for some time now with the promise that it will be ready for 2010. Looks like Rapaport is making good on that promise as he has launched the official ATribeCalledQuestMovie.com website and gives the update that although the film has been two years in the making, it currently is in the final editing stages.
Check this new clip from the film where Ludacris gives his take on ATCQ and how the group has influenced today’s artists and the current state of hip-hop. No release date is planned yet for the movie but it definitely will make its way around the film festival circuit this year.

He and Saigon almost started “All In A Day’s Work 2″ in Oslo last week. They have picked the beats. Interestingly Statik says that Sai’s debut album should be released in a few months. Sai is still signed with Atlantic Records but he the paperwork for his freedom is nearly done.
