Boston-based alchemist/producer Dr. Quandary didn't have the budget to make the most ambitiously weird multi-million dollar science fiction movie of all time, but he did give us the soundtrack. Beyond All Spheres of Force and Matter is a lush, cinematic album that pushes instrumental hip hop through a kaleidoscope of world music. Digging through a terabyte of samples and an attic full of vinyl, Dr. Quandary worked with Brookyln multi-instrumentalist Matt Scott to build a consistent sound for an extremely diverse album.
Never one to be pinned down by labels, the good doctor blurs genre lines with his vivid, cinematic scenes culled from an expert layering of samples. When he isn’t gallivanting about space, he can be found on Earth crafting beats for the likes of Algorhythms and Louis Mackey.

Emay – If You’re Breathing

First off I want to thank Tonje and my dude Star Slinger for helping me out with the cover! This is a track that I semi-uploaded onto facebook a couple weeks ago and since the feedback was so positive I decided to release it as a single. I even performed it when I opened for Wax in Toronto. This song means a lot to me because it has a lot to do with taking things for granted, and what the world expects from each and every one of us. Hopefully you get to give the track a listen and tell us what you think!

MySpace 87 | Big Tone

Originally released in early 2000 @ 200 copies max by me (87) and Big Tone, it was quickly picked up and re packaged by Waajed of bling47 and PPP the cd became somewhat a collectors item. I remember Proof buying two and Tone telling me about how much Dilla loved the project. Even till this day I get ppl via twitter or facebook asking for a copy or a download link, so I thought, what better way to get it 2 the ppl and new Detroit hip-hop fans that have never heard of Wasted Youth! So without further adieu I present to you in its orignal form Wasted Youth! Enjoy.

Buff1–Ghosting(2010)

Link

Detroits own Buff1 drops the free project Ghosting:

Ghosting is a project that gives listeners insight on the types of artists and music that inspires Buff1. Giving himself one week to write original material, Buff1 created this free project to be released into the blogosphere. Choosing songs that coincidentally had space for Buff1 to spit, none of the original songs have been edited.

Buff felt there were obvious similarities between the music on this project and one of his favorite Ghostface songs “Holla”; on which Ghost raps over the entire Delfonic’s song “La-La Means I Love You”. Ghosting also happens to be a game where one person follows behind another, mimicking their movements as closely as possible, without being detected.

The Ghostface homage, combined with Buff1 trying his best to follow in the footsteps of the artists who inspired him to write this project, made the title obvious. Lastly, don’t sleep on the exclusive bonus track “Better” produced by Slot-A.

Sapient – Universal Diorama

Link

Here is a new song, “Universal Diorama”. This is the first glimpse into my album Barrels For Feathers (coming Aug 31st). The song is about genres defining me and putting me in a box. Instead of trying to break out of those boundaries, I expand musically to build a universe within that box. Enjoy! -Sapient
