The rhythm game genre needed a shot in the arm. Games like Rock Band and Guitar Hero are great, but what about other types of music? Enter DJ Hero, where you can show off your skills on wax. As a big fan of hip hop and turntablism, the game immediately piqued my interest. My initial [...]

Back in the day I got introduced to a hip hop duo that in my opinion has one of the most, quick witted and intelligent minds in the game. Most people know him for his albums, NIA (1999), Blazing Arrow (2002), and The Craft (2005) all of which I still rock in the car weekly.

Symphony For The Superhero , a symphony by local composer Mateo Messina (best known for composing the Juno score, as noted before ), is going down at Benaroya, starring the one and only Cut Chemist - turntablist, producer, innovator.

The sound is akin to that of Davis's Kranky Records...

Some people think guitars are boring . Where are their opportunities to buy one-off controllers for their gaming consoles? Look no further than this week's release of DJ Hero . Seriously, look no further : There's no gameplay in evidence, and I'm pretty sure DJ Shadow's eyes don't usually glow with a hellish green fury, but now I totally want to explode 18-wheelers with the power of my tight beats...
