News: DJ Rob Swift Remembers Fellow X-Ecutioner Roc Raida on New Album



Roc Raida, legendary DJ and member of the New York-based turntablist group the X-Ecutioners, passed away in September of last year, stemming from complications caused by a mixed martial arts injury. Rob Swift, a former member of the X-Ecutioners, along with Raida, testified to the impact his fellow DJ had on him in a recent Exclaim! interview.

“We lost an amazing person, number one. And an amazing DJ and artist,” Swift says. “Losing him was such a shock to everyone, especially the people who were close to him. The way he died as a result of an accident he suffered in a martial arts class. He wasn’t doing anything bad, he was doing stuff normal people do: working out.”

Swift goes on to say he had never lost someone close to him before, so the DJ knew he had to pay homage to Raida on his upcoming eighth studio album,
The Architect. Swift had already finished the album and was in the process of designing the artwork for the album around the time of Raida’s passing

“The artwork was done maybe about two weeks prior to Raida passing away,” he explains. “And when he died, I got in touch with my artist and told him, 'I want to rework some of the artwork to reflect my love for Raida.' We decided to dedicate the album to [him].”

Swift also wore a Roc Raida T-shirt in his first-ever music video, made for
Architect track “Rabia Movement 2” (see below).

Swift is determined to make his future work a testament to his fallen comrade: “I’m going to continue to remind people with this album about Raida and keep his memory alive. It’s good to know I’m in a position to keep his legacy alive. I’m always going to do that in my music, whether it's videos or in [my interviews]. I lost a brother. I’m excited about keeping him going, and continuing what he couldn’t finish.”

The Architect is due out on February 23 via Mike Patton’s Ipecac label.

Free Mixtape: J Dilla's Fan-Tas-Tic Soul Gettin Head Remixes Mixed by Psykhomantus

Photobucket

As This is the month that the world has lost Jay Dee/J Dilla back in 2006, his music still lives on. As the late producer has left so many beats behind, many rappers and singers still continue to use his beats for future release making them still sound fresh. DJ's still push tribute mixtapes of Dilla's work, promoters doing tribute nights and the fashion wold even got in as you can buy J Dilla Watches, Tee's, Hat's to foot wear. I, myself made three Dilla mixtapes. Pay Jay Edition (2004) which I did before he died, that was focus on his heavy hitters for groups like A Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul, Skillz, Phat Kat, Common to his crew Slum Village. After his passing I then did work on Just Rhymin With Dilla (J Dilla Edition) (2006), this was more aimed at his lyrical skills as an MC than a producer. J Dilla had rhymes for days and as a guest he even out shined the main artist on his own recording. My last tribute on Dilla and I most say my favorite mixtape of them all is J Dilla's Fan-Tas-Tic Soul Gettin Head Remixes. This to me was my way of really showing respect of the mans work and how deep and a fan of his many styles. I wanted to show his production skills but in a deferent way by using soul. Neo soul as most like to call it. Every DJ who was making J Dilla mixtapes just focus on the Hip-Hop side, no one ever put out a full mix of his productions for soul artistes like Cameo, Lucy Pearl, Dwele, Jamiroquai, Steve Spacek or even Macy Gray, so I went to work and put it out free on psykhomantus.mypodcast.com in 2007. I felt I've done my part and covered every thing that J-Dilla was about and that was beats rhymes and soul (for your life). Find it here (Click on the Picture) and enjoy, and see another side of Dilla.

Rest In Peace J Dilla.
