The Come Up Crew Podcast Vol. 5: Ignant as Ever Featuring Siik and Linotype

The Come Up Crew Podcast Vol. 5: Ignant as Ever (Click to download)

For this special Come Up Podcast edition, we have Siik and myself, LinoType, coming through on both hosting and music duties. This will mark my first appearanceon the podcast and I have to say it’s been long overdue. Please excuse all the fumbled words and soft vocals – there was only one mic and it was all one take. It’s better that way.

Siik describes his mix as ignant. “Put it in your car and wreck your subs”, he recommends. As for mine, it’s all Biggie. His movie just came out (it was aiight), and I felt I had to share my take on his legendary catalog. And for my money (and Siik’s), he is the greatest rapper to ever touch a microphone.

From these stats I found out that posting on facebook is the way to go in getting people to your blog, especially if you got friends with hella friends that recommend your post to others. Case in point, after I posted my “downtempo” mix, LinoType suggested it on facebook and I got a huge amount of hits that day and its popularity has slowly decreased. Big ups to Mr. Manansala for that one. Being as specific as possible with tags can also help. People also like to hear music and look at pictures, but I believe people want to hear the story behind the mixes and photos where they may have the opportunity to walk in your shoes or see through your eyes. And lastly, people want to hear your opinions about music, events, activities, places, and so on, so they can either justify their feelings about something or find someone to disagree with about something. It’s only human…I’m just trying my best to feed the masses.

The Come Up Crew Podcast Vol. 3: Top Songs of 2008 featuring Ocir, Dumlao, & Spingineer

It’s past due since the mix was supposed to be up on Wednesday (Christmas Eve). I am in SF, Dumlao is in Santa Barbara, and Ocir is in LA which made it hard for us to finalize everything. Although, the podcast was done on Wednesday, I was having trouble getting solid internet connections anywhere until today at my mom’s house. So finally I give you The Come Up Crew Podcast Vol. 3 highlighting the Top Songs of 2008 as chosen by The Come Up DJs Ocir, Dumlao, and Spingineer. Ocir and Dumlao play their top electro tracks while I play my top hip hop tracks. Enjoy.
