WKND BEATS #4:
HVW8 & Master Blazter
present…
J1 –
Attack Of The Deer

Back with another edition of the WKND BEATS series – this time from producer/drummer/DJ, J1. Originally hailing from Cleveland, Ohio but now based out of L.A., J1 is best known as being the co-resident DJ of the TripBoogie party there, as well as the drummer for TaRaach & Blu’s C.R.A.C. project. Most recently, J has being making waves as one-third of the group, Master Blazter, alongside DāM-FunK and Computer Jay.

As for J1′s solo work, he’s just put up a free download beat CD, entitled Attack Of The Deer. The collection consists of 14 rough beats “straight from the MPC,” that range everywhere from laidback jazz loops & grooves to raw drum breaks. To give you a taste, I’ve streamed three highlights from the set that you can check out before downloading the full .zip below.

As a bonus, I’ve also included a video of a recent Master Blazter jam session, recorded live at the HVW8 Galley in L.A. Be on the lookout for much more from the trio coming soon.

Credit due to both HVW8 and BlackNBling for debuting the beat CD earlier this week.
