Queens New York producer/MC IceRocks (of DXA) interviews on a very funky and soulful 2012 episode of the German radio show Home Diggin'. As a student and practitioner of Hip Hop's classic elements, DXA brings gems of music from the US to Europe for the promotion of his 7" vinyl release "I Get Up" b/w "Ice's Jazz". If you're not up on DXA yet, this interview and Ice's 7" project on Blunted Astronaut Records is a good introduction to the addictive Hip Hop sound of the Queens New York crew.
In this interview, get to know Ice in-between a number of funky sounds played on the show, from classic Hip Hop to sampled Funk, Soul, Jazz and the music of Ice's own crew DXA. He is a humble Hip Hop addict from New York who has been dedicated to his craft for years and it shows in the music. A good listen for those who are interested in digging, sampling, the art of Hip Hop and good sounds of music in general.
Check out this snippet of the limited-edition single "Stay True" by Brooklyn M.C. T.R.A.C., the original version produced by Drumat!c of KicDrum Products and the remix (above) produced by ICEROCKS of DXA. This project reminds me of obscure Hip Hop releases of the early 90's I might find while digging through the crates, one which displays creative direction by artists who go against the grain of popular mainstream music. I favorite the remix from the sound ICEROCKS brings to the table, who uses soulful samples and gritty SP1200 boom-bap sound.
