Madlib – Hold The Organ & Black Widow (From Rock Konducta Vol. 1)

December 17, 2013May 4, 2019 by Luke Alex Davis

Madlib previews two new tracks, Hold The Organ and Black Widow, from his upcoming Rock Konducta project. A work ethic like Madlib’s is something to be desired by a lot of producers. He releases music when he feels like it but still varies his work for other musicians. Music is his life and that permeates …

VIDEO: Quasimoto – Catchin’ The Vibe

August 7, 2013November 22, 2019 by Luke Alex Davis
