BITLOATH featured on Free Music Archive (FMA)

"Born in The Land of a Thousand Hills" featured on FMA "Free Music Archive" which is directed by WFMU, the most renowned freeform radio station in America. Thank you Jason!

I've been playing the work of Mishoo The Drumkit on my podcast for a while now. He represents an international voice for hip-hop, an MC and songwriter with a knack for storytelling. Although he currently resides in Germany, Mishoo was born in Rwanda, which gives weight to the belief that the soul of an African griot works through his beats, rhymes, and life.

He kicked off 2009 with a free EP entitled Born In The Land Of A Thousand Hills, a shoutout to his birthplace and origins. This is soulful and introspective boom bap with an electronic edge reminiscent of Pete Rock and J Dilla. Mishoo has been blessed to work with some extremely talented beatmakers including Comfort Fit and Portformat, not to mention the welcome appearance of vocalists like Dutchmassive, Shaunise, and Mr. Nnaji.

The broken beat movement of "Shine" is certainly recommended for the uptempo crowd, but for those who need a proper introduction to Mishoo, check out the attached song "Hope." Autobiographical in nature and inviting in approach, Portformat's production fits Mishoo's laid-back vocals like a glove. Nnaji's smooth crooning on the hook seals the deal. For Mishoo, respect is due...

Mishoo on KevinNottingham.com

Thanks to Dj Grain at KevinNottingham.com for supporting the music! Much appreciated!
www.kevinnottingham.com

As I was searching the net a few days ago I happened to stumble across Mishoo The Drumkit. This MC, producer, songwriter has a very interesting story that puts him in a league of his own. Born in Kigali, Rwanda to a Rwandian mother and German father he lived in Rwanda until he was 11 when a brutal civil war broke out in Rwanda. His family then moved to Germany where he was introduced to hip hop, jazz, soul, and other forms of music. I recommend this for those of you all that are looking for change of pace and are tired of the same old music you hear on the radio. Check for the download after the jump.- DJ Grain

I also want to thank Dutchmassive for supporting me and the music. This man is the truth. He is very talented and one of the most underrated MCs/producers on the scene. I got your back brother! I'm so in love with the drumlove ep!

Ty & Pee Wee Ellis at International Pori Jazz Festival

Ty "who has made three excellent albums and pushed the rap envelope with afro-legend Tony Allen, Blur-vocalist Damon Albarn and the De La Soul, to name a few" will be performing together with "Alto saxist Pee Wee Ellis, who was the musical leader of Brown’s band in the 60’s and co-composer of 26 songs" at the International Pori Jazz Festival on Friday the 17th of July. His second album "Awkward" is one of my favorite albums.

Mixtape: Digital Undaground Vol 4 + 5

Download both tapes! Including "I won't stop" by Mishoo The Drumkit feat. Dutchmassive & produced by Comfort Fit.

The fourth and fifth volumes of my mixtape series "Digital Undaground" are done. Due to a short hiatus that DJ Chuck went on we decided to bless you with 2 tapes, instead of one, to make up for the long waiting period. So we call this one the Independence day Edition, very fitting, since we are all about supporting independent Hip Hop.
We’re excited to let you hear both of the tapes for free. Look out for upcoming artists from all over the US and other countries, including features by the likes of Big Pooh, Chino XL, Dutchmassive, Roc C, Supastition, Baatin, OneBeLo, Elzhi, Buff1, Skyzoo, The Away Team and many more.

B-Boys and B-Girls, here is another album you should get for your daily work out! De La Soul's "Are you in?" (Nike/work-out) album. Definitely worth downloading!


Wish I could see De La Soul perform live at the International Pori Jazz Festival in Pori,Finland in two weeks. But I'll be there to see Erykah Badu, Raphael Saadiq, Booker T Jones and maybe Roy Hargrove & Big Band and Marcus Miller who produced Miles Davis, Chaka Khan and Aretha Franklin. I'll then hit the road back to Joensuu where Dizzy Rascal, Beenie Man and Femi Kuti will be performing.

If you are in Finland this month and you're ready for the ultimate concert experience, make sure you go to either one of the festivals. Check out who else is coming!
