Ep. 90 - Brandon B Jul 16, 2018

Show notes

Although the term has been used and abused for years, I'd say, Brandon B. is an underground legend. He was in probably the most beloved hip-hop group in Arizona history, Supermarket, which then spawned the relatively unknown yet very influential outfit, Gametightelectro. That group then birthed the name/concept of 'Gurp City', which in itself is a micro-movement through NorCal. In our conversation we chat about it all. Brandon finally just released his solo debut, which I urge you to buy here: https://gurpcitydigital.bandcamp.com/album/rhythmic-american-poetry - his cult/prank-comedy album 'Father Rick' is now available on Apple Music/iTunes and I strongly suggest finding that too. Thanks for listening please share with anyone you know that is into this scene & don't forget to subscribe!

Ep. 88 - Oliver Wang Jul 06, 2018

Show notes

We're back! 'The House List' returns to form with guest Oliver Wang! The author / DJ / college professor sat with us (and recorded the talk!) in his South Pasadena studio, to talk writing, rap, and some lightweight immigration terminology-schooling. Truth be told, I most likely wouldn't have written a published word hadn't Oliver extended an invite to scribe 100-count 12" reviews for URB Magazine back in 1996. During his editorial tenure there he ushered in the likes of many an now-established writer. Oliver also has a great podcast called 'Heat Rocks' available where you can find podcasts, check for it! This episode features editing and tunes by Controller7. Enjoy, subscribe and many new episodes to follow! Apologies for the extended hiatus!

Ep. 86 - Alias Tribute May 23, 2018

Show notes

co-produced by Controller7 /// Hello everyone. I put together this very special concert in Los Angeles on Mon, June 25th to remember Alias of the Anticon collective and raise some money at the same time to send over to his family. For those unaware of his work - Alias was a really talented producer, emcee and engineer. He was also great Dad to two, a husband of over 25 years, a son, brother - and a very cool, easy going dude. Super funny and chill. Could be friends with anyone and also never intimated by anyone. He released several albums under his Alias name - all worth checking out, all a bit different than the next. He was definitely on some progressive, electronic music hip-hop tip. He was at his core like many of us - a passionate hip-hop head. If you or any friends can come - you can buy tickets here: https://www1.ticketmaster.com/event/090054B1051A8E71 - I'd like to sell this out in advance so don't hesitate! Also - in this special mini-episode the Anticon affiliated producer/DJ/Dad - Controller 7 - contributed a mix/vox to this. Enjoy and many more episodes to come! See you in LA

Ep. 85 - Gideon + Nick Black (Lexicon) May 15, 2018

Show notes

Today's episode is with brothers Gideon and Nick Black formerly of the hip-hop duo Lexicon. Who released their first recorded material back in 1998, in the group they went by Big Oak and Nick Fury, respectfully. We hadn't seen one another in 10 years or more and recorded this in West L.A. in April of 2018. They recently created a collective named EXGF and remain very involved in the music industry. My directorial debut was also their first music video for the song 'Nikehead'. We recall in great detail the making of said video. They just opened a new website to commemorate the history of their group, which chronicles much of their journey. Hopefully this conversation will also act as a companion to that, which you can see here: http://www.lexicon.rip/chronological/ - The photo used I shot in Upstate NY in the year 2000 or 2001 with a Canon AE1, I don't recall the film, I think it was in January. The intro and outro songs are from their second album 'It's the L!' - I did the cuts on both tracks. Enjoy!

Ep. 83 - Morris Apr 27, 2018

Show notes

My dude Philesciono Canty is the guest on this incredible episode of The House List. Thank you for tuning in. Philesciono Canty aka MORRIS aka P.Morris is an super lowkey dude that is one of my favorite producers/composers in the game right now and for a while now. It's also a treat to chop it up with him. We recorded this conversation in Los Angeles. A lot of his music and collaborations can be found here: https://bcmg.bandcamp.com - he is one of those really versatile music-producers that can do both highly-progressive future-composition stuff as well as ratchet-trap-type-beat. Check out his music and his most current works with Maal, A Goomba. Don't forget to subscribe to this podcast and if you listen on SoundCloud please re-post this episode deep into the Clouds!

Ep. 82 - Burger Records (Sean & Lee) Apr 24, 2018

Show notes

Sean Bohrman and I went to college together in a small California town called Arcata. No, not Arcadia, that is in Los Angeles. Arcata at the very top of that state. We graduated from the Humboldt State University's School of Journalism in the early 2000's. We worked at the school paper, The Lumberjack. Where I contributed album review and music features and Sean madly penned manifestos. We had both long since decided what we wanted from life long before college, but to incubate and trip-out at Humboldt was a purely rad coincidence. Last time I saw him was 2012 SXSW and the last time I saw Lee, his partner in the Burger Records empire was at Third Man in Nashville with People's Temple. We recorded this at their awesome, brick and mortar store in Fullerton, California. It was fun and really made me miss California, because everyone was stoned and happy. Was a very fun episode to record - Burger Records site is: http://burgerrecords.com - lots of incredible releases. Sean's on-going radio show is here: https://www.mixcloud.com/burgerrecords - buy tickets to Burger Boogaloo '18 here: http://burgerboogaloo.com/

Show notes

Special 4/20 Edition of The House List with my real good buddy and longtime hip-hop junkie a-alike DJ Double K aka LA Mike! Often considered a man of mystery by many of the faithful followers of People Under The Stairs, Mike and I sat down on the porch at his house with some old friends and shot the gift about his life for a few. Hope you dig this. If you smoke, you may roll one up to it now. If not, you can just sit back and catch a contact. Pick up that LA Mike album which just dropped where-ever you can find it and check PUTS when they play a show near your town, over at: puts.band - don't forget to mash that subscribe button and leave a donation if ya feeling generous!
