Bang your head to the 2nd single from "Petestrumentals 2" and a cassette rip from 1994 of Pete Rock on the radio with his fellow pirates Marley Marl & K-Def, courtesy of Mello Music Group and DJ Eclipse. In Pirate Radio and Future Flavas Radio tradition, Pete brings his famed SP1200 drum machine with an exclusive beat to rhyme over.
Get your copy of "Petestrumentals 2" on vinyl or digital today, album drops June 23, 2015.
"After his "In Control" era and before "Future Flavas" hit Hot 97, Marley Marl blessed us with his "Pirate Radio" show which aired on 105.9 WNWK on Saturday nights. It was part of Hank Love and Half Pint's 2am-4am slot. Not only would we get Marley's flavor, but he would always have guest DJs as well. This episode has Real Live's K-Def on the wheels and an appearance from Pete Rock freestyling alongside Sah-B over a Pete Rock beat straight from his SP (32:19). Couple of rare joints on here too like the Rated R "What Goes Up" Black Cat produced track (5:45) and an LL joint that sounds like a Marley Marl remix that never came out (26:54). This show was also the first to premiere some of the Nas album cuts from "Illmatic" when they were fresh from the studio on cassette." - DJ Eclipse

As the foundation of raw Hip Hop sound flows with the presence of rich layers of melodies, live elemnts and rhythms, Oddisee aims to expand your mind in an inspiring approach of a producer who has elevated his craft to demonstrate beauty in his approach to music.
Oddisee flips the mellow guitar groove of a 1976 song by Rhythm to express his own reflections of life on "Own Appeal".

One generation lends inspiration to another for expressing deep emotions of life through music.
