MASTER BLAZTER: BLAZT OFF Mix by Kutmah – Podcast

MASTER BLAZTER: BLAZT OFF

BLAZT OFF, a mix by Los Angeles’ own DJ Kutmah, showcases the individual styles of Computer Jay, J1, and D-F. Collectively, they are known as Master Blazter. Individually, each is accomplished in his own right, and as a group, there is no stopping the funk they create.

Computer Jay develops hard hitting tracks built upon moog, rhodes and personally tweaked electro systems.
J1 provides the backbone of rhythm on drums, while equally being comfortable producing quality funk laced beats.
D-F adds his signature vocals and provides layers of deep funk with his own keyboards and keytar.

The countdown has begun….

Three musicians with their own distinctive styles have come together to form Master Blazter. Each individual is an integral part of the whole – each one necessary to keep funk music alive, taking it to unforeseen heights.

Strap yourself in…

Black Spade “Things Change” – Download

Things Change by Stoney Rock

“New Stoney Rock and it’s a soulful one. On a mainstream level, introspective songs may be lost or feigned, passed off as emo-rap. But with a ten-toes-down cat like Spade, there’s a candidness to his verses that remind us that all isn’t lost with Hip-Hop. There’s a mature, self-assessment conveyed in his words, personal but still resounding to anyone whose day revolves around love, relationships & the day-to-day grind.”

– The Smoking Section Sept. 2009

Check back for upcoming HVW8 – Stoney Rock collaborations.
