Hello y’all,

I’ve been back in Italy for about two weeks now, trying to get all the papers straight and the monastery technological department running smoothly. I’m moving to Rome and living with Evan and his little slice of heaven any day. The internet often dies at 8:00, leaving me unable to work and able to get back to the basics with the music. Also, there is no Guinness in this town, and I’ve lost some weight and kept my head on bit straighter.

Check the wall for two beats and a remix of “Less or More”, originally done by Talib Kweli and [was] produced by Hi-Tek. I guess I still owe him credit for the professional vocal tracks and turntablism. The sample comes from Joni Mitchell‘s The Hissing of Summer Lawns, which is breath-takingly beautiful and a vivid and upsetting depiction of the reducing of a woman into an asset — a topic Talib doesn’t hesitate to address. Deffinately let me know what you think if you own Eardrum.

Tomorrow I gotta drive into Rome to pick up Br. Basil coming in from Austria. Ironically, one year ago he came and picked me up when I first came to this strange and inspiring city. It’s nice to hit him up.

Don’t forget that all these beats are in mp3 format by clicking ‘beats’ up there on the right and saving the link to your desktop to so you can import them right into Itunes, Winamp, VLC or whatever you use. You can also burn them and pass them out, 100-at-a-time. Acting as a promotional agent will get you delicious chocolate in the mail sent from Norcia.
