Attention Producers…Red Bull Big Tune Registration is now open!!! Denver’s Big Tune is 6/24…
It’s that wonderful time of year again, when the weather gets warmer and producers everywhere get their best beats together for Big Tune, Red Bull’s producer battle series. Last year, I helped Big Tune’s founders J Moore, Vitamin D, Jake One & DV One organize Denver’s first Big Tune, and the amount of talent that came out blew everybody away, including the 750+ people who turned out to root for some of Denver’s best producers and saw MPC phenom Boon Doc take the title. This year, we’re gonna do it bigger and better (just wait til we announce the special guests who are coming out for it), but for now I just wanted to give producers everywhere a heads up that registration is now open. There are events going down in Philadelphia, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Minneapolis, St. Louis, Ann Arbor/Detroit, Virginia Beach and of course, Denver (on Thursday, June 24th). So if you’re a producer looking to compete, please head over to RedBullBigTune.com to register (the registration deadline for Denver is 6/10). Best of luck to everyone entering, I can’t wait to see who ends up competing on the 24th.

Don Cusack is out, cop that ish!!! P.S. Check track 6…
Physical | iTunes | Amazon | List of Stores by City
I’ve been meaning to mention this since it dropped on 3/23, but between back to back trips to Austin for SXSW and Houston to coordinate some Thre3 Style ish and my “regular” grind, I haven’t had the chance. With that said, Don Cusack in High Fidelity is finally out! What’s that, you ask. It’s Donwill from Tanya Morgan’s official solo debut, in the form of a collection of love stories, re-imagined loosely around the cult-classic High Fidelity (read more about the idea in Don’s own words here and check the Onion AV Club’s review of it here). Anyways, it’s probably the best album I’ve heard so far in 2010 and one of the best concept albums I’ve heard in years, check out the samples on iTunes to hear for yourself and pick up a copy at your local record store.
