General Update + Plans for new CD

Things are going so slow. I did do couple of remasters, though. One of the original "Memory Bank" instrumental. and one of "Against the Grain" by Poet!k. I'll speak more about that in a moment . For now lets talk about Memory Bank.


For all 2 of you that have known me since day 1, you will remember this was used in collaboration with Theorii, and it was the first track we did together. I had a good time going back and rebuilding it. I spoke of Aims in my last post, and this is the first beat he'll be on. I'm waiting on his response, currently. Speaking of waiting on responses, that is the sole reason why things have been going so slow. Thrash and Perplex, Mayan Stone Records, Aims. All of those guys have asked for beats, but just seem to be disappearing as soon as I respond. Scott Burns' mixtape "Substance Abuse" came out recently, and he went over my Hypernova beat on track 2, "YAK SNIFFLESON".



At the moment, I'm just trying to get production credit, alongside getting ahold of the master file so I can use it on my own upcoming CD, but as with the other collaborators, he's pretty slow to respond. I do hope we can get this sorted out so we can work again in the future.
Now, Speaking of my CD, and bringing up Poet!k from earlier, I'm planning to do a mixtape featuring artists songs that were performed over my beats. The CD will be called G-Men. You know how Xavier has the X-Men? Well Gecko Infinite has the G-Men. I'm still deciding who will be featured, because it's still very early days, and I don't have all the tracks I want yet (waiting). For an idea of who and what will be in the G-Men, heres a rough list.

Theorii - Ya Don't Stop (Definitely)
Poet!k - Against The Grain (Definitely)
Scott Burns - YAK SNIFFLESON (Hopefully)
Relit - Image (Hopefully)
Gecko Infinite - Body Parts (Probably)
Hoodwolf - Travelling Man (Probably)
Poet!k - Prototypes (Maybe)
Gecko Infinite - The Illest (Maybe)

That's what we have so far. I've lost contact with Nefarious Freak, but I do still want him on here. I made a lot of beats for him and nothing has really surfaced yet. Hoodwolf, I'm still trying to get his acapella so I can mix it properly with the beat, and we'll probably see another track form him, too. In addition to all of that, we might have Aims on here, if he gets back in touch, and another track from Poet!k using the "Cheer Up Kid" instrumental, another from Relit using my unreleased "Misty" Instrumental, hopefully more from Theorii, and another from myself. If I forgot to mention anyone, They are probably a flaky collaborator, and it's unlikely I'll get anything back from them. I'd love to get a semi-big name on here to bring in listeners. Someone like Billy White, but I gave him a bad impression of my skills years ago, so I don't think he'll touch anything of mine.

Well I think that's pretty much it for now. I realise I'm just typing to myself, but I make these updates in case a new person comes along, and I don't want them to think this blog is dead. Peace out.
