STREAM: Schematic – ‘Color (N.) Inside The Lines’

March 4th, 2013 Dayton O'Connor

We’ve been tracking Mae frontman Dave Elkins’ solo project Schematic since word came out back in November that it was even a thing. One successful Kickstarter project and a couple of weeks spent in the studio later and now we can hear the sonic fruits of Elkins’ effort.

Color (n.) Inside The Lines won’t officially come out until tomorrow but Elkins teamed up with Idobi and the pair were generous enough to put the whole thing up on Soundcloud for streaming ahead of its release.

The debut from Schematic is a celebration of erudite melodicism and anthemic alternative rock …

January 18th, 2013 Dayton O'Connor

The twitter feeds giving some conflicting accounts on this one. But what else is new?

THE FACTS:

  • HudMo’s management tweeted that the trill beatmaker was signed as a producer to Very Good Beats, the production arm of West’s G.O.O.D. Music and that Mohawke’s solo releases would continue to be put out by Warp Records, as they had been in the past. Well, something

Ma$e Jumps From Bad Boy Records, To Land At G.O.O.D. Music?

December 13th, 2012 Dayton O'Connor

It looks like the former pastor isn’t a bad boy anymore.

Rapper Ma$e revealed in an interview with MTV’s RapFix Live that he was no longer affiliated with Sean “Diddy” Combs’ Bad Boy Records after spending 16 years on their roster.

“Yeah, the other day [Combs] let me out of it,” said Ma$e of Diddy’s decision to let him out of his contract, reportedly only a few days prior to the interview. “So big shout-outs to Diddy, I guess he woke up feeling good and he wanted to do something good.”

Ma$e also expounded on some of the other twists …
