FreshBeats: FreshNerd – I’m So Hi_Hello
So I took part in this friendly competition over at the homie Jillz blog called Scrambled Crates. One sample was given to 18 producers to add their own unique spin. Here is my take which came out pretty….well…..sometimes I wonder what goes on inside of my head. Be sure to stop by and check out the rest of the producers tracks as they were pretty sick as well.

I don’t know much about this kid except that he is from Russia and got some serious heat. One of my new favorite beats…..easy. Originally spotted over @ hiphoppolice.tumblr.com

BamaLoveSoul presents Wilson Pickett: a funky situation | the remixes (PREVIEW)
Dope promo vid for a project that I was a part of presented by DJ Rahdu and the BamaLoveSoul crew. I chopped the shit out of a Wilson Pickett song and transformed it into something special in a short bus FreshNerd kind of way. . Support it when it drops next month.
“The BamaLoveSoul Crew will be releasing their second original music compilation, a funky situation: the remixes Jan 2011. This compilation was created completely by having producers from across the globe flip songs from Wilson Pickett’s 1978 a funky situation album.”
Beat featured in video: Byron the Aquarius – The Wicked
Video Clip by: Thed Weller
p.s. Shout out to Tall Black Guy who is also on this project.

FreshBeats: Mister Curry – Don’t Wanna Do It
The homie from L.A. sent me over a banger that left me with bass face…..it’s still stuck actually. I’m a fiend for big dirty basslines and this track does its job satisfying my aural needs (pause) on that end. But that’s not the only level Mister Curry delivers on. The melodic synth on top of the un-quantized drums creates good balance of pretty & dirty. Kinda like Halle Berry in ‘Monster’s Ball‘….ha! get it??
Ok, enough of my corny jokes…..check out Mister Curry for more dope here.

FreshBeats: Timmy Rickard – Welcome Back
The homie Timmy sent over a new beat that had my head nodding from start to finish. A unique sample chop and quality drums always wins in my book. $5 to anyone that can name this sample…..ok, I won’t give you $5 but I will think you’re very cool.

FreshPick: Priceyall the DJ – FreshNerd’s 100 Akres (Beat Mix)
Fresh Nerd’s 100 Acres by Priceyall
This was a pleasant surprise…I opened up my inbox after a long day of school and to my surprise, Mr. Priceyall from Chicago sent me a 30 minute mix he did of nothing but 100 Akres beats. Wow….made me realize 2 things:
1) I released a lot of beats in the last couple of months
2) People are actually listening *single tear drops from left eye*
That being said, a big thank you and shout out to Priceyall……bless my yute!
