instead of posting my entire top 50 records of 2010, I just want to call all you fools out on a bunch of records you – at your own peril – almost certainly did not pick up last year. i know i’ve mentioned most of these several times on here already but judging from the…

My First New Records Post of 2011
This would have come a lot earlier, but an order I made from the UK in late ’10 took until about two weeks ago to get in. Since I already had waited that long, I figured a couple more weeks wouldn’t matter while I waited for more new shit to arrive. Now it’s all here!…
Pittsburgh Track Authority
My homeboys Adam Ratana and Preslav Lefterov (you may remember my mentioning them here) and I have been working together on a musical project for the past few months that we call Pittsburgh Track Authority. The first joints from this project will be seeing the light of day very soon through Uzuri Recordings, who have…
Gigs, Records, Mixes, a lil Trax bizness and some Hip Hop
OK, this one is gonna be a lil bit long, but instead of making a bunch of separate posts I’m just gonna throw a load of different stuff in together. January isn’t generally seen as that busy a month in music so apologies for the lack of posts. Looking at a bunch of my recent…
How Much Is Too Much To Pay For A New Record?
Apparently, Theo Parrish is pissing people off by charging more than the “standard” amount of money for some of his new “limited” records. This is something Moodymann has been criticized for in the past as well. In fact, I criticized DeepChord for similar practices in a post 3 years ago. I have to say that…
Even More New Records
I know this will make it three new records posts in a very short amount of time, but it needs to be done! There’s just so much good stuff coming out, and none of the things I am going to talk about have been mentioned on here before. I know this one might be long,…
Some more new musaks…
My last small run down of new records from the beginning of October contained a few things that Tom had mentioned in a post of his from around then and seeing as Jitter has just made a records post which includes some jams I’ve been loving recently I don’t see the point in some of…
New Promos and Records Reviews…
Sorry for the time off, it’s been a bit of a busy time for all of us at ISM this fall. You’ll be hearing some of the fruits of our labors soon enough, though! In the meantime, I’ve gotten a bunch of promos recently as well as a bunch of dope new and used records….
Late Summer/Early Fall Record Round-Up
Yeah yeah yeah. I know, I’ve been promising this new records post for a hot minute. I get stuck in these cycles where I think “I’ll just wait till that next shipment comes in the mail before I do that write-up,” and by the time they show up there’s already another box in the mail…
A New Pittsburgh Record and Two Mixes!
My esteemed colleague Andrew Burger (AKA H.I.M. DJ Mr. Monkey MD), owner of the Harmony Society label that dropped its debut 7″ from Pittsburgh producer BusCrates last summer, has done up a new mix for us to celebrate the release of HSOC-02 by the funky Pittsburgh group Smooth Tutors! Mr. Burger has been a long-time…
