I know its only been about a week since November This Month in Sound - But what I'm dropping on you now was SUPPOSED to be ready by November.  But shit happens and its ready now - so here it be!!!

I've been working on this project with Capaciti for OVER 2 years now.  (Thus the title)  This project is also SO LARGE that I can't upload it to the Background Noise Crew web site.  So for the first time in BNC history - I have to direct you HERE to snag it!!  Enjoy the awesome full length album from Capaciti!!  Happy Holidays!!!

http://capaciti.bandcamp.com    <------  This is the site to get the goods P.S.

November has been a bit of a challenge.  I'm going to start off by saying I'm sorry.  I've been hard at work preparing many projects to launch in the coming months.  I had planned for November to be an epic month for the free sounds - but sadly it will not be.

With that said I'm dropping something to look forward to.

Where We Going Tonight?! - ToneKrusher Smith ft. Phingaz

This is a song from "Big Bomb's of Love" - ToneKrusher's next album that we are giving away in the NEW YEAR!!

Please enjoy the jam!!

Checking in again here for October This Month In Sound!!

This month I'm keeping it short and sweet because I've been hard at work on a TON of new material and projects!  (Details will come soon I promise)

While this is a short song - it isn't short on awesomeness!  I hit up Analyrical and we hashed out this crazy funky mess one afternoon.

Savior - Phingaz ft. Analyrical    <----- Right Click Save As

Thanks for stopping by!!

ENJOY!!

Its my birthday today - and I'm feeling SILLY.  So I'm gonna drop two Remixes on you for this month in sound!

The first is from ToneKrusher Smith's upcoming album "Big Bombs of Love"  I remixed the title track with a very famous Parliament song! (Cause Parliament is THE SHIT)  Besides, one of the worlds most famous Hip-Hop producers took over HALF of his debut full length from Parliament - so I figured its about time I did too!

Big Bombs of FUNK   <----- Right Click Save-As

The second track I'm dropping on you comes from Analyrical's debut album "First Date"  The original song is called Poet Laureate.  Its a grim tale - and I figured who else better to help tell the remix than Primus.  Please enjoy!!

The Laureate's Revenge   <------ Right Click Save-As

Thanks for listening!!!

To everyone out there who follows along month to month here with me!! August has been a bit crazy but here I am!!!

This month's song has been hanging out on my Computer for quite awhile now.  It was going to be part of a little 3-4 song thing I was gonna do with the BNC dudes.  But I don't think that is going to come together anytime soon - THUS - You get the jam RIGHT NOW!!

The big thing in Hip-Hop now-a-days is to do a mixtape and sample crazy things.  This is my version of such a practice.

So with no more blabing I give you:

August This Month in Sound!!!

DO WE? - TQD, Phingaz & ToneKrusher Smith  <------(Right Click - Save As)

For those who know me personally - you know how much the following group has played a part in my music life.  They are absolutely amazing musicians and should be praised while they can be!!  I don't want to spend to much time here blabbing - so I'll just drop it on ya!!

Here is July's This Month In Sound!!!

Californication - By the Red Hot Chili Peppers Covered by myself

GET IT HERE!!!  (Right-Click Save As...)

Thanks for listening and stay tuned till next month!!!

This is a very special month - I'm giving away something that people have been asking about for a few years now.

A few years ago a few fellas put out a record, we called it Movement 4:6.  It got some good reviews - some super awesome people helped us put it together - and we had a hell of time performing and releasing it.  In the aftermath - as people got to listen to it I started getting a lot of questions about it.  "How did you get that organ sound on "It Came To Pass"?  Where are those quotes from on "Persephone"?  Where did the strings come from?  Do you sample? What do you sample? Plus a laundry list more - Egypto thinks I should do a Track by Track breakdown of the album.  If the response gets big enough, I just might have to.  The largest response I got from this album was "All the music on there is CRAZY!  I'd love to hear it as an Instrumental!"  Well folks, that is what you get.  For June I give you Movement 4:6 by Sinthesis in its Instrumental form.  Sometimes I left Vividend's scratches in there - sometimes I didn't.  Sometimes I left the vocal samples, sometimes I didn't.  I do apologize - the mastering on these songs is a little odd - you can really hear how much I pulled apart some of the sounds.  I suggest listening to it at a louder level.

Till next month,

Phingaz

1) We as Background Noise Crew are a young group of musicians and we need all the exposure we can possibly get.

2) While I contributed nothing to the project beatwise - I did record, mix, and master 85% of it. 

3) While I didn't write any of the songs - I do believe I help the artist create and shape their songs when they are working with me.

With those above reasons I'm proud to give you May: This Month In Sound.

T.Q.D The Appetizer 2 EP

I got the link to get it right Hurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

This is a very special This Month In Sound - It focus on one member of Background Noise Crew, T.Q.D.

T.Q.D stands for The Quiet Dude - which is actually a very unfitting name.  Out of the whole Background Noise Crew he stands only second to myself for recorded/released material.  So apparently he has plenty to say.  I met T.Q.D early in my move to Minneapolis.  We connected and began working on a few random songs that eventually made their way onto his debut album Not Yet.  Shortly after releasing that album, we took at stab at a duo project - cleverly titled Green Sketch.  The original Green Sketch sessions merited over 20 jams.  Only 9 made it to our debut album So Long, For Now.  The rest were broken down, beat up, re-invented and re-surfaced onto T.Q.D's second album Clench, Grit, Breathe. 

I am proud to give you all the last of T.Q.D's lost songs -

Jackhammer Pt. 1 & 2

Sleet

Ok. . . I'm Done Now

Jackhammer Pt. 1 & 2 is half produced by me and half by T.Q.D himself.

Sleet is one of the earliest recordings we did for the Green Sketch EP.

Ok. . . I'm Done Now was apart of those same early recordings.  The trumpet is played by one amazing musician, Anthony Phan.  You can catch him HERE!!

ENJOY THIS MONTH IN SOUND FOR APRIL HERE!!!

Sinthesis

10001 and Don't Let Me Down

This is a very interesting set of songs.  Sinthesis is composed of Phaust on vocals, Phingaz on sounds.  10001 is a very old Sinthesis song.  Phorest rocks a super hot chorus - Vividend is in there cutting all this crazy stuff up.  (Bonus points to anyone who can name all his samples.)  And the beat is super sampled and heavy.  That was the old Sinthesis sound.  Phaust and I are hard at work comprising a new full length and tracks to boot that are more in line with Don't Let Me Down.  After many debates, Phaust and I have decided to get back to our roots.  Guitar, Blues, Big Drums and Rapping.  This song was written and recorded around election time - but this is more the sound that Sinthesis will be taking in the future.
