I WORK LIKE ROBOT ON NEW PROFUSER 7Y3 ALBUM..
Current mood: disgusted
Category: Movies, TV, Celebrities

EVERYDAY WORKING ON THE UPCOMING ALBUM + I'LL BE DONE BY THE END OF OCTOBER... I'M GETTING DELIRIOUS AND I NEED TO BORROW SOME OF YOUR MONEY.

OCT.31ST IS MY SET DEADLINE SO I DON'T RELEASE A MILLION YEARS WORTH OF IDEAS AND DIRECTIONS

BTW-OCT.31ST HAPPENS TO BE "THE DAY OF THE BEAST" A.K.A. "HALLOWEEN"... THIS IS MY FAVORITE HOLIDAY SINCE I WAS A KID. I'M TAKING MY KID TRICK OR TREATING TO CELEBRATE... - THERE YOU GO - WHAT'S MORE FUN THAN FREE CANDY AND DRESSING UP LIKE A WEREWOLF OR POSSIBLY- DICK CHENEY'S HUNTING FRIEND? - This event marked the second time that a sitting U.S. Vice President had shot a person, the first being the incident in which Aaron Burr shot and killed Alexander Hamilton during a duel.

- JUST WANTED TO UPDATE YOU ON MY STATUS FOR THE INBOX THAT ASKS..

I HOPE YOU CAN ALL DIG WHERE I'M GOING WITH THIS ONE, IT'S BECOMING AN ADVENTURE OF SORTS.. LOTS OF CHANGING AROUND, MUSICAL CHAIRS - LESS BANGING - MORE BANGING... THE MOST QUIET LOUD SOUND.... ESPERA.... MOCKINGBIRDS.... DANGER. - Obviously I'd rather talk more about Oct.31st than what my music sounds like to my ears... I'm deaf now.

ANYWAY, I HOPE YOU STILL LOVE ME WHEN THE RECORD DROPS AND IT FINDS A WAY INTO YOUR BBOY-BGIRL-INDIE NERDISH, EARLY 90S, LATE 80S, EARLY 80S, PRIMO/MANTRONIX CHOPPING, SUNNO))BASSING,CAN DRUMMING,LOST SOUNDTRACK STUDYING,LINDA PERHACS LOVING, FOUND SOUND COLLECTING HEARTS and ASSES..... XO prefuse world T.M. 2008

I miss this dude.

T.V. on the Radio Remix......btw-
Current mood: sleepy
Category: Music

yes yes..........*available on T.V.O.T.R.'s upcoming release on: 4AD/INTERSCOPE records - This is not my song or on my album. sorry for posting that w/o saying anything...

As a kid, I used to run 6 blocks home on friday nights to watch the incredible hulk. Do you remember that "backpack" he'd rock when he was walking around? - it was filled with cocaine and pills. He'd sell them to high school students, that's how he made his money as a human "backpacking" in the form of Mr. Banner.... He was fucking evil and one of the biggest dealers known by man. He was a BACKPACKER!!!! xo - prefuse factory TM.

READ!!! PREFUSE 73 is working+ hiding again BUT will say so much more..
Current mood: jealous
Category: Music

Greetings!>?.
- I thought that would be all I had to "blog" about and let my assistant or manager maintain my "my space" while I went into my: "LAB" to finish the next P73 full length, l.p., album, c.d., record, leaked download, "hater ignition ensemble beats" (don't bite that - it's a song title)..... - as always, "my space" seems to attract way more people's interest than my own website which is: - www.prefuse73.com

BUT HEY, THIS IS FOR YOU......... LOTS OF WORDS FROM ME...))

You should check out www.prefuse73.com in the meantime, seriously! Maybe this weekend would be good... WSDIA.com hooked me up so I can basically post up audio and video that you can take as you please while I'm working on the upcoming album and the "day to day work" I have to do these days. - I'll be posting up downloads for free____ (xoxo) - "alternate versions" of released and unreleased songs)) + honestly, there's a lot of weirdo shit that rides the fine line of Prefuse 73 and my other projects but doesn't sit on any of my records right. YET - as a track on it's own I can dig, so now I can share with you so much easier, rather than letting that "SONG" sit and mold - fuck it, if you hate the "SONG" -throw it away in your trash can located on your computer at the bottom or click on "finder" and select "empty trash" BAM! - it's free - As free as free is free.

At www.prefuse73.com you can achieve everything you ever strived for in life...... Listen!! Are you just not really feeling Prefuse 73 after "One Word Extinguisher" came out because he got either too noisy - too quiet - too annoying - too OVER saturated, etc? It's okay! Everyone likes each album differently - From the first e.p. to the last download - Everyone has they're own steez, right?

Are you a "closet racist guy or girl" that just HATES..> Spanish/Catalan/Cubano music - especially "ECUADOREANS NAMED: ROBERTO LANGE?" - or maybe you feel that all music that isn't in ENGLISH sounds like cheesy "World Music"? Well, you got some issues to work out for the upcoming year (ha ha asshole!) - BUT - that's exactly why at - - -
www.prefuse73.com

I can keep you up to date with the entire spectrum and vast world of my projects + production jobs - such as these!!!: (read fast as you can out loud!): "RAPPERS!, BANDS!, SICK DRUMMERS!, SAVATH Y SAVALAS!, RISIL!, DIAMOND WATCH WRISTS!(shit is done and freshhhhh), THE PREDICATE!, ALL MY FUCKING FRIEND'S MUSIC I ASSIST!, I EVEN PLAY IN A BAND CALLED: "HELADO NEGRO" THAT IS BETTER THAN ANYTHING I DO, AND HAS A COOLER NAME- BUT IT'S NOT EVEN MY FUCKING PROJECT!, SOUNDTRACKS!, WHAT I ATE FOR LUNCH!, UPDATES ON MY SON!, WHO I A+R'D TO WHAT LABEL AND HOW I "KINDLY" GOT ASKED TO PLEASE REMOVE MYSELF FROM THE PREMISES, ALL KINDS OF RANDOM SHIT! IT'S FUCKING FRESH! REMIXES! TEACHING SCHOOL!, LEARNING HOW TO SELF MANAGE ALL OF THIS SHIT ON MY OWN AND STAY ALIVE!, JUMP STARTING THE "EAST DEV" LABEL WHEN OUR WACK DISTRO DEAL ENDS! - ALL OF THAT AND MORE - ALL FREE - 24 HORAS - ALL THE TIME! - btw, WE still got to update the photos and things that have been posted up for 4 years or so? - but I'll keep the news fresh regardless - and all the free things for the fans and families........
again for the 100th time, that site is called: www.prefuse73.com
YES.... www.prefuse73.com -
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
let's move on and let's have a simple contest -
somebody give me an alternate word for "lab"... but not studio, it has to sound pro, official - fuck it, just not "lab" - - - AS MY USUSAL take home prize for any winner is a free cup of ice..> redeemable from any: "Church's Fried Chicken in the greater Decatur or Atlanta Ga. area OR if you live in NYC? - I'll meet up with you, buy you a coffee and let you tell me anything you need to get off your mind or I'll be happy to talk about the things that make me very excited about not being in crowded spaces. *** there is a 15 minute cut off time for this interaction/therapy session..... Again, the question is: "What is an alternate word for the 90's term for recording studio, known as: "LAB"....

i.e. - Some examples you might hear around my general vicinity coming out the mouths of dudes around the age of 15 and up... - "YO SON, AYYYO, I WAS JUST MAKING THE ILLEST FUCKIN BEAT IN THE "LAB" SON, YOU CAN'T FUCK WITH MY BEATS, IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO FUCK WITH THE BEATS I COOK." -- or maybe you've heard this one?: "WHAT'S POPPIN/CRACKIN UP IN THE LAB SON?? YOU GOT HEATERS IN THERE RIGHT? YOU'RE ALWAYS UP IN THE LAB, NEVER SEEING ANY ASSES WALK BY OR SUNLIGHT, ALL HIGH AND SHIT."

- so there you have some examples of the overuse of the word "LAB" and even "SON" + the speculation that one who spends time on their own by choice, working on music/beats, therefore must be an all out stoner and missing out on staring at women as they walk by... - SO LET'S GO - 5 DAYS - BEST ANSWER WINS..
--------------------------------------------------
This will end this blog novel and lead me to shut up and get back to work..... AND NO =
Don't twist all this up - it's not a debate - - it's just experience i'm passing on below...

You obviously have the right to do whatever you want to do - i'm clearly focusing on the beat side of things, the cats I run into making beats, the person people expect me to be when I don't live up to an expectation, etc... I'm in no way trying to be preachy... I'm taking minutes to say that it's better to spend more time on your work and your own space - whether it be the internet via your own page+site wherever you choose_ or literally up in someone else's space... 9 times out of 10 - If you hold up someone you respect (another artist) against their will at a show, on the street, just in order to big up yourself and shove a c.d. down their throat.. There is a huge chance that c.d. is going to the garbage chute to hell. I myself, will always stop and talk to you if I can talk, I'll take your demo indeed. Furthermore, if we had a discussion about something other than our own immediate music and talk about something outside of the spectrum - without a doubt, I WILL be banging that shit in the car, home or hotel first thing based on the fact that I'll have a reminder of how dope it was to meet a nice person who happened to slide me their c.d. after having a random discussion about China's trade relations with Africa, A book they read while riding the train, anything but "WHAT GEAR DO YOU USE? DO YOU LIKE WARP? DO YOU LIKE YOUR LABEL MATES?



+ another hidden message regarding the SELF IMPORTANCE that some carry on with due to their UNCANNY ability to make a beat. - just an opinion, yet obvious is the fact that self confidence and happiness beats the shit out of the lack of pride some take in their work. - But there's a limit to this - STAY HUMBLE - There is someone in so many places unknown that aren't talking, he/she are burning a second hole in your entire beat c.d. and mine.____ The abilities to create compared to when I started(ooof) _ enables anybody with a busted computer and a cracked program to make music with two clicks... That's really an amazing gift for everyone - I'd be the first person to help anyone get going on some shit like this if I knew they were going to really try to work at it and most importantly make that ... END OF THAT SIDE OF THE STORY -

WHITNEY SHOW!! - THANK YOU - sorry about that amp!!!
Current mood: thankful

Words from the Whitney:

Wordless at the Whitney: Prefuse 73 and ACME

Thanks for coming out in droves last Friday for our third installment of the Wordless Music at Whitney Live series. The crowd that showed up for Prefuse 73 and ACME was our biggest yet- the line extended all the way into the lobby gallery!

Patient folks waiting to get in…

Some of the spillover crowd used the lack of indoor space (and the beautiful weather) to their advantage and watched the show from our outdoor sculpture court.

R.I.P. CAMU TAO))

http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/page/news/50904-def-jux-rapperproducer-camu-tao-rip


I'm going to post an old track we did together. I was on a deadline, I told him it was about meeting a fresh girl but she leaves --- he started it, played a show, came back and finished it... Aesop brought it over complete the next day.
Out of all the obvious collaborations and experiments on "Surrounded by Silence" or other Prefuse 73 albums - this one was always a favorite. I heard it on all his stuff that El-P and Aesop would play for me, I thought he was going to be a mega star one day...
peace be with you...... GSH.P73

PREFUSE 73 ORDERS VEGETARIAN FOOD FOR LUNCH.
Current mood: working
Category: Jobs, Work, Careers

IT WAS WRITTEN....
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When Prefuse got on stage he wanted you to know it as he began with a noise prelude that threatened to bust out the audience's eardrums. From there on out, Prefuse 73 clad in a black jacket, snakeskin shoes, and Run DMC frames rocked the night with a best of medley that liberally played tracks from his deep discography. There was the wonderkid from Atlanta. The. MPC 2000. The arsenal of synthesizers, plus a drummer, and an extra member to help out with the beats. The crowd nodded back and forth in the blend of ADD editing and avant noise experimentation.

Watching electronic musicians is usually a snoozefest but Prefuse has always been an exception to this rule. Watching him work the MPC, guitar, electronic gadgets and live drum programming is like watching Bobby Fischer playing speed chess.The man programs beats at a moments notice, adds textures and layers spontaneously, fucks with echo and delay, flanges voices and guitar while going back to the MPC to add more breaks, makes signals to the drummer who adds a solid foundation to what an unversed listener would call a total mess. Needless to say the performance was a whirlwind and nothing short of awe inspiring. Towards the end of the set the visibly intoxicated crowd bobbed and weaved, clamoring for more when Prefuse played the classic "Busy Signal", a track that is glitch funk at it's best, and has been a crowd favorite ever since it's release on Extinguisher. The encore consisted of a loose jam session that gracefully came to a close, and as everyone filed out it was obvious that Prefuse 73 is far from over.

hmmmm?
