Fresh Beats

Just got 2 fresh beats out the oven! This one I just made like 10 hours ago. Somehow I can't get enough of it. It's just really chill and reminds me of fall, like orange leaves and driving around in the city or hanging out at a park. Had to post it up. I threw in snippets from an old Alfred Hitchcock interview I found. Thought that would be interesting. This is going into my album too.

Still Waters Run Deep - Skeematic Spaz

This one I made yesterday. I threw in some dialogue from the movie The Hangover. Maybe you'll enjoy it whether you've seen it or not. I'm not sure this will be part of my album. Prolly not, but I think it'd be a good treat as a demo or a free single to share with people.

Goin Beyond (Never Again) - Skeematic Spaz

Lovage.

Album

My album's pretty much shaping up! I've got 18 tracks listed so far, which consists of plain instrumentals and 4 skits. I showed half of the album to Michael and he loves it. Apparently he was listening to it in the bus on his way to school and he was nodding his head to the beats. I'm glad he likes it. He said it's underground. He's gonna be on at least 2 tracks. This is the album cover:

Anyway, now I'm in the process of starting to write lyrics. It'll take a while to completely finish writing every song. I'm guessing about 2 months or more. Def gonna take my time. I'm thinking of recording a demo track sometime soon just so I have something out. It's been so long. Michael recorded a track just the other day and it sounds so good, it made me want to come out with one too.
Here's the latest beat I made a few hours ago that I just added to my album: (press play)

Imaginations in Flight - Skeematic Spaz

The intro is a sample I took from one of my favorite movies, Waking Life. If you haven't seen it, do it!

Steph, I think you know where that picture's from!

September Update

-I went to the Tribal Gear tattoo expo last night with my brother. It was tight. We met P.O.D.'s drummer, Wuv. I'll post some pics up when I get to it.
-I'm starting to work out because I'm evidently getting fat. Mostly doin pushups to get some arm muscle goin to replace all that fatty fat. I did situps too but that killed my stomach and pelvis so I stopped. I'll get back into it sometime though. I should hit up the gym.
-My friend Michael from back in Mozambique who's actually in London now, convinced me to start working on some tracks for my own solo album. So I'm workin on that. I've done one beat for it which sounds pretty tight. One of my problems (though on another level is still a positive thing) is that I make so many beats and hand them out to my buddies (Hermano in South Africa and Michael in London) cuz they're the ones who are actively writing or doing shows and I'm not into rapping at the moment. I keep making beats though, so there's always material to work with and hand out if needed (Hermano always asks for beats which I gladly provide him with, and he's actually done a few shows recently doing Christian hip hop). Anyway, I'm pretty much just brainstorming ideas for my solo project so this is something I'm putting time and work into. I think there are lots of things I say I feel like doing but never end up dedicating myself to it, but this isn't one of those things. I think there's a point to this and I'm rolling with it and I hope it comes out great. I haven't written songs in a long time - I've just been making beats, and I think it's time to give myself a challenge in writing again. I'm aiming for 5 songs for now. Michael said to do at least 10, but we'll see how I feel after doing 5. I might post up my beats on here as this project progresses, so I guess you and my future self can see what's going on.

Peace and lots and lots of love!

Net Probs

So the internet wuz down for like a week, cuz the company wuz installing fibers or whatever to other parts of Asia or something. Anyway, got it back like 2 days ago. It sucked not having internet. Felt so out of touch with the world, but it's back up now and it seems to be faster too.
Booyah!

Wicked Wicked!

So they ended up using my Harbourfront picture!
