MPS (MIXTAPE PRESERVATION SOCIETY HOUR 46)

-


New episodes of the Wave One MUSIC PODCAST SERIES have been posted sporadically to You Tube but this time of year was a bad time to start an enterprise like this: I haven't had any time to really put out content regularly.

Fortunately, a killer band from Des Moines, Iowa hit me up on Soundcloud asking for an interview, so I got on the phone with LAV.ISH and had a great time talking to these guys. I wasn't sure which podcast to include them on, so I opted for the classic one, since it requires no video and I hadn't done anything on it in quite some time.

I'm going to spend January 2020 adding video content, but I'd like to do Mixtape Preservation Society at least once a month. The blog may need to be updated more often, so wish me luck on that. The time it takes to do all of this has been scan as of late but I hope to have it all rolling smoothly again by February of next year.

In the meantime, if you know of any potential sponsors or advertisers looking to support a podcast like this, hit me up.

MPS (MIXTAPE PRESERVATION SOCIETY HOUR 38)

I decided to just jump into the show this week-- no opening segment where I discuss what's coming up. Fuck that; if you listen regularly then you know what's up and if you just started listening... well, you have 37 previous hours to go through to catch up. It's not necessary at this point, and it gives me more time to throw in other segments and more music. And speaking of music, I think playing excerpts of songs instead of entire cuts keeps some of the discussions compact and lean. I am referring to the second segment of the podcast, a new thing I call "Some Ill Shit w/ Nick Culp ". This segment is going to be a regular feature where Nick and I talk about our mutual love of hip-hop. The segments are culled from a long conversation I had with him (like his appearance on my last podcast featuring him , this is conducted over the phone from his home in Oakland CA) and mostly just touch upon our personal reminisces and anecdotes about growing up in the rap era

Hour Nine... Hour Nine... Hour Nine...

The Ninth Hour of the Mixtape Preservation Society podcast is up and running. Check the Podcast Links section in the upper left corner for the appropriate links. As I note in my spoken introduction, this podcast has been airing for nine episodes and already we've had to say goodbye to at least three completely different artists in the time it's been in existence. Chris Cornell, Gregg Allman, and now Prodigy of Mobb Deep... what the fuck is going on in music? WE pay proper tribute to Prodigy by making the first track of this hour the classic Mobb Deep cut "Shook Ones". The interview with DJ Greenhouse comes to a close with this hour, but all it has really done is inspired me to have him on semi-regularly. I think the two of us talking about music is the basis for most podcasts, and it takes the pressure off having a different guest each week... because I'm not sure I want a guest each week anyway. Some hours I want to resemble the Prince tribute more than t

MPS HOUR 59

I can be a troll if need be... not proud of it... who am I fooling, I love it. But it's not sustainable: eventually you just want to be able to go online and NOT start a fight with a perfect stranger. I am not looking to get in people's faces constantly, but sometimes THEY bring it to YOU. And so it helps to be able to handle your own in an online squabble. I have great admiration for artists who can handle their own in the real world. Audiences (even the paying ones) aren't always hospitable to performers, especially if alcohol is involved. Hecklers can get a sense of entitlement and decide that THEY, and not the person on the marquee, is worthy of attention. In my opinion, a good live perfoemer can squash that beef in no time flat. It just takes the guts to redirect that energy right back at the perpetrators. Going on stage is not as easy as it looks-- it can be gut-wrenching and anxiety-inducing. And so when someone in the crowd acts out of line and gets called out on it
