    b, 21b, 21b, 21Yeah hudson mohawke might be the only dude I think comes with it from that wobbleyletsnotquantizeshitandsoundlikeflylo sub genre. His remix of Tweet is killer.b, 21b, 21S1 of SFP? eeeeeeeeeh. I think they're okay as a group but I just feel like his beats never did anything for me. I gotta check out Music Box though just to see what's up.b, 21b, 21Co-Sign on Jake, no brainerb, 21b, 21but what aboutb, 21b, 21DON MOTHERFUCKING CANNON? Anyone got a mixtape of all his beats?

    b, 21b, 21b, 21cannon is overrated IMO. b, 21b, 21I liked his beats on the old jeezy albums, the last one he was pretty much just letting a record play. b, 21b, 21But yeah, hes pretty good.

    b, 21b, 21I am serious

  • Im not really into the whole hudson mohawk rustie lucky me crew. b, 21b, 21These days I ride for the latest Joey Beats project. Shits a year old or so though... I donno... producers suck these days. b, 21b, 21None of those mentioned in this thread do anything for me.

  • everything else is boring to me. the shit coming out of LA and the uk is like no other

  • I just think its all so tired right now. Its like all of LA bit Edit and Dilla at the time and now we have 100 producers all doing the same thing. Now people toss in dubstep, grime, and all the off kilter stuff. It just seems like more of the same heartless bullshit. I feel like that scene is full of people who jump from style to style in such an analytic method that nothing comes through as soulful at all. F*ck wobble bass, nintendo twinkles, and sirens just because that's what everyone else is doing. Im not impressed that you can simply slide things off a grid or operate a compressor. I donno man I just feel like its a bit forced and It just doesn't strike me as genuine. b, 21b, 21I don't really know what im looking for musically right now though.

    I don't know who got beats, but I know who I'am always keeping in check. Nottz, Jake, Focus, Khalil, Bangladesh and Maestro. If you wanna check a Euro dude, go for Dready Beats. He's a talented one.

  • James Pants is my favorite producer right now.

    Super Smoky Soul - Geek Beat (2007)b, 21/object1b, 21b, 21They just came out with a new 12" on Circulations that I still need to check. Hudson Mohawke does a remix for "Geek Beat" on the Cycling EP 12" which is dope.b, 21b, 21b, 21"Smile"b, 21http://www.zshare.net/audio/517500528c5f3c00//a1b, 21b, 21"Simply"b, 21http://www.zshare.net/audio/5175010730e8e419//a1b, 21b, 21And most everyone on this:b, 21http://www.freshselects.net/freshselectsloosejoints#more-1608/a1

    b, 21b, 21b, 21Oddisee has been killing it lately for me. He killed it on Upgrade and I didn't know he did "hood boy" for Fantasia (wtf!) always dug that track. He's got some joints on Oddisee 101 to.b, 21b, 21I'm not feeling the new Black Milk as much as Popular Demand or The Purple Beat tape which is really some amazing shit.
