Not sure how NotPaul works?
Haven't used the dropbox yet?
Find out what it is all about.

Why?

check this out first...

once you've watched the ISP at work you sort of realize that the turntable is an instrument. that video is 10 years old.

the invisibl skratch piklz blessed the bay area with their skills and took those abilities everywhere (and the ISP's members dominated the world dj contests to the point of being asked not to compete because the number of entries were dropping because of their exceptional skills).

seems only fitting that they should bring that awesome collective ability (scratching is difficult solo; pulling it off as a group is formidable achievement) back to the bay area. it's been 8 LONG YEARS!

From wikipedia.... t he group started in 1989 as the "Shadow of the Prophet" with DJ Q-bert, Mix Master Mike, and DJ Apollo, who left the group in 1993. The group later added DJ Disk, Shortkut, DJ Flare, Yogafrog, D-Styles, A-Trak to their lineup. They released numerous mix projects & albums and were featured in documentaries such as Battle Sounds and Scratch.

Check them out for yourself and, if turntables are new to you, just challenge yourself to something new for one night. you'll be starting off with the best if we can pull this off.

Dropbox

The dropbox is where fans who have bid on an event can upload digital items for the artist to use in the show. You can browse, rate and comment on any of the uploaded items -- hopefully the best will be incorporated into a live performance.

easy to use loop -- i can't remember what the voice is even saying any more but it sounds like "Kill it" so i call it the killit sample. View

A sample i pulled from an intro to one of Ninjatune's Zen albums. Very minor processing on the sample because it came from Ninja. Question for a... View

    i've seen q-bert a handful of times and it's always been amazing. the whole crew in action would be sweet.

    This sample is awesome -- probably my favorite of the bath. Very different and the type of really off-kilter sample that isp could do amazing things with.

    Thanks -- it's crazy how long it take to put these together even though they are sampled. Playing original pieces is actually much quicker for me.

    Great sample. I think you pulled it from Zen Cuts 3??? Good question about ISP and digital. I've no idea what the answer is though. Let's hope they would/could use digital samples since folks are posting such great samples.
