beatmaking

See? We told you we'd be back! In the 43rd episode of this here rap podcast, we explore the Sweet Tooth track "Trill Mix," which features guest rapper Exactly (of Stereoloud fame). We talk beats and flows... wince at some of Keef's references to female anatomy... and speculate about the race of John Oates (turns out he's Italian-Moroccan, guys!). In other words... it's business as usual. Join us?

Listen to a poetry workshop delivered by Adrian Earles, also known as Think, Write, Fly. Adrian takes you through short snappy exercises to get the writing muscles warmed up and stimulate poem making. Combining our sensory capabilities with the ‘interrupting’ nature of poem making. All with the aim of to deconstruct the elements of your perception, focus in on them to create vibrant lines and images. Adrian uses the language and ideas of beat making and musical production (another Art built on crystalisation and refined focus) to build tools that will free you as a writer to take on ANYTHING! This workshop was hosted by Culture Studio and Aik Saath in February 2021 and delivered online to a cohort of young people in Slough. We have made Adrian’s delivery available for you to enjoy!

2021 is here... and has been here for a few weeks. But now that KC is finally dropping it's first ep of the new year, it just FEELS real, you know? In this week's show we talk about the Cuzzins' bid for Parler fame... that time our music was featured on Chris Hardwick's Nerdist podcast... and what YOU, dear listener, can expect in the weeks ahead. We've got some big plans for 2021. Join us?

We did it, guys. We made it to our LAST episode discussing KC's debut rap album, We'll Burn That Bridge When We Come To It. In this action-packed finale, we destroy the sour note the album ends on... the unnecessary 80s pastiche, "Secret Track." We also play a clip from our one and only live show, diss Michael J. Fox (sorry MJF!) and shout-out UGK, Paul Wall and Three 6 Mafia. PLUS: An attempted bit of seriousness regarding the concept of white rap. Join us?

We're taking our podcast about terrible white rap to its logical next phase... terrible white industrial goth. (Ok, the "white" is probably redundant.) In this week's Kast, we explore the bizarre KC side project, Negablood Trancefusion. You'll meet Chris' alter ego, food court worker and multi-instrumentalist Ebony Talon... and Alex's second self, the bewitching Ophelia Nightwyntyr. Together, we'll explore their output... and hypothesize what the two lovebirds might be up to now. Join us?

Wow. Has it really been ten episodes? My, how time flies. In this special 10th Episode Spectacular, the Cuzzins engage in a good ol' fashioned BEAT OFF, which is to say... they look back at some of their best rap beats from over the years. And if that weren't enough, they (well, Alex) even lay down some fresh rhymes for the first time in nearly a decade. Shout-outs and props dealt to Blockhead, Oh No and Vampire Weekend.

In this week's episode, the Cuzzins dissect a seminal KC track, the melancholic "Swollen Condolences." Well-deserved shout-outs are doled to Antihelix, Copywrite and Natalie Portman. Also included: A crucial discussion about when it's appropriate to utilize movie dialog in your beatmaking.

Awww, it's KC's first rap collab! In a very special episode, the Cuzzins look back at multiple tracks they did featuring German hip-hop enthusiast Nico aka Nervous. The beats are hot and the rhymes are multilingual. Also: The boys get some new rap aliases! It's the perfect recipe for a gute Zeit. (That means "good time"... we think.)

Hip hop culture’s core values of social justice, peace, respect, and community make the world’s most popular musical genre a relevant and effective therapeutic tool for the marginalized and at-risk population. Hip Hop beat making and culture is successfully utilized across the globe as a mental health, educational, social justice and cross-cultural intervention.

Join Jade Prieboy, new business manager at rock paper scissors, and host Dmitri Vietze as they reflect on their visit to NAMM, the vast trade show of the National Association of Music Merchandisers in January 2019.

They got to play with innovative new gear from Hercules DJ Controllers, Joué, Touché by Expressive E, Alex 4, Analogue Systems, Roli, Elektron's Model Samples, Korg, Roland, Haken Audio, Melotron, Stylophone, and more.
