Next 2 Blow Vol. 2 - DJ K Yung & DJ Infamous

Big thanks to Fooch Tha' MC for dropping this off via e-mail.  We noticed some buzz developing around this release early.  From some of the mixtapes we've heard, K Yung's gold, so this should have some massive listener appeal.

Got That Work - Fooch Tha' MC

 

GOT THAT WORK (REMIX)  - Fooch Tha' MC

[SOLO CLOTHING CO.]

Fooch has been absolutely essential in helping us establish our fan-base.  With constant five-star bars coming from his New Music Monday series, Fooch instills unmatched  force behind Iowa's growing hip-hop movement.  'Got That Work (Remix)' rips the lid off of the #NMM series, using Jahlil Beats' space-age synthetics to showcase Fooch's dynamic articulation that separates men from boys in terms of sheer skill alone.  Great new addition.  Absolutely astounding to realize that 'Got That Work' is New Music Monday entry number eighteen, so if you've been sleeping on Fooch Tha' MC, it's clearly time to wake up. 

Major shout-outs to the Solo Bro (Solo Clothing Co.) for providin' some of the most innovative swag you can find online these days.  Be sure to hit him up on his Tumblr Page, which looks more and more sleek by the minute.

Keep your eyes peeled for Take Shape, Purple Asteroid Cadillac's debut album, slated to release in the near-future. Rumor has it that you'll be able to find it via an incredible amount of outlets, so definitely no excuses if you miss it. We'll keep you posted as well, but while you wait, get a taste of Fooch's latest and recap some of his most recent 'New Music Monday' tracks below :

C.C.I. Revisits : Purple Asteroid Cadillac

[via Facebook]

Sometime around mid-December of 2010, we featured an innovative four-piece group that quickly rose to Midwest lore. Armed with bombastic live shows, fresh lyricism and touring dedication, the pine-fresh Purple Asteroid Cadillac helped redefine Midwestern hip-hop, and interestingly enough -- our online traffic -- with our piece on their showcase in Cincinnati proving to be the first major C.C.I 'hit' article. Because we've seen our fan-base certainly spike upwards in the early months of 2012, it'd be in our best interest to re-visit the group that helped re-SHAPE our local culture, and give some of our new recruits a chance to catch up.

'Take Shape', the hyped debut of Purple Asteroid Cadillac, is set to release this spring. We'll keep a firm watch on this release, including any pre-order news, but the savvy-reader shouldn't expect to see any leaks; we're not that kind of blog. Tha' P.A.C clique have worked tirelessly to provide this album to their fans, and we'll just go ahead and assure you -- it'll be major. Call it a lock.

Speaking of hard-working, lead vocalist Fooch Tha' MC's launched 'New Music Mondays', a fantastic new collective of material leading up to the album release this spring. From Fooch himself to some of his colleagues (including Naledge, a great talent that we've come to appreciate), NMM is a great way to start the week off in the right direction. You can find New Music Mondays right here on Fooch's Tumblr Page, and a word of advice :: go ahead and pick up "Got Bars", the Kid Duke-produced trunk-banger that's calling for the late-nite riders of the world.

A major thank-you goes out to Fooch, SHZA, ZAK + DAVE -- your dedication in the studio is worth commending, and we're stoked for future New Music Mondays, "Take Shape", and whatever endeavors head your way. We may be constant-bloggers, but we're certainly fans first.

Clearly, it's March Madness...

Big ch-ch-ch-channnnges around the Industry!

First off, March has already been declared our biggest month yet, which means we've gotta figure out some way to pass that on to you...y'know, gift-wise. Some .mp3 action? Baller. Maybe we'll break out the ol' production equipment and make an exclusive track for all of our (even more!) loyal following. You will be the first to know, without a doubt.

Second, due to their growing following, Purple Asteroid Cadillac have finally risen up and taken the title of 'most popular featured artist', narrowly defeating long-time champs, The Olympics. Actually, I know of a little link that can get you some free P.A.C. jams; all courtesies going to ReverbNation and Fooch.

Finally, the biggest dynamic brother-duo since the Morris twins (Rock, chalk, Jayhawk!), Utopia Park, have just dropped their latest self-titled release (click!) fresh out of a spring mini-tour. Check out their C.C.I.-approved tour-blog, as well as their amateur space program, and their quest to catch the elusive Rumsfeld-lizard.

Tuesday Update

What up, everyone? Well, two weeks into 2011, and we finally get a reasonable amount of snow here @ The Industry, complimenting how cold it was to see Oregon lose on the national stage by a chip-shot field goal. Whatev's. The Ducks will be back next season. You'll see!

In other news, Fooch confirms via FaceBook that the Purple Asteroid Cadillac will be featured in WWS Mag this evening, and their packin' an interview! Also, this Saturday at 1:30 P.M., the Marvell Gable Show will be counting down their top twenty-five indie artists of 2010, and the P.A.C. made the cut -- catch the MGS and the Purple Asteroid Cadillac on WGCR's official website to see where they place. Big upcoming year for Fooch and the whole P.A.C. crew, as 2010 last saw them perform at a Def Jam showcase in Ohio.

Lane Weaver also confirms up to three tracks for the soon-to-be-arranged Captain Captain Industries Official Mixtape : Vol. I. We're super stoked to release that. Now I bet you all are too.

Our new demo's going over nicely, as we had a pretty nice crowd peepin' C.C.I. yesterday, and I assumed at least one or two people picked it up. Like I said though, it's completely a demo. Not sure if that'll even make the cut for our own compilation, but y'know... I may change my mind.

A'ight y'all -- that just about does it for us this afternoon. Subscribe! 'Like' us on FB! Promooootion!

"BYLCL SMKFRSH" - The new joint by Lane Weaver ft. Fooch

In preparation for tonight's three-band/rapper battle royale at the Beauty Shop, Lane Weaver has dropped what may be his most hyped track yet. Featuring Purple Asteroid Cadillac's Fooch, this little jingle is quite the killer. Plus, two of our most popular posts have featured both of these artists, so I know we've got quite a few people who're gonna dig this one.

Bonus : The cover art (courtesy of Oliver Huntley) is a 3x4 masterpiece that would look good in your living room. The t-shirts would look just as good on you while you're checkin' out that new painting you just hung above your 52-inch. Interested in these swagnificent delicacies?

Then you gotta hit Lane up at his Official FaceBook Page.

Without further ado, Captain Captain Industries is proud to feature two premiere artists, Lane & Fooch, and their bumpin' new jam - "BYLCL SMKFRSH" (Buy local - smoke fresh, y'all!)

BYLCL SMKFRSH ft. Fooch by LaneWeaver

Be sure to catch this, and much much more, tonight @ The Beauty Shop Fundraiser. Tickets are a mere five-spot, so bring yo' lady-friend(s) if you please. I know I'll see you there --

Video Premiere Tuesday --

November 30th must be a quality date for releasing music videos. Captain Captain Industry new-comer Fooch, as well as the much hyped Lane Weaver, have dropped their long-awaited viral sensations today.

Peep 'em here first, and always be sure to drop a constructive/complimentary comment -- people love logging on and seeing a dozen new 'thumbs ups'.

--

First off, we have Fooch's newly mastered track, "Flows Ferocious". You may have heard this performed originally by his crew, Purple Asteroid Cadillac. This time around, the live instruments have been replaced by a five-star production squad, with the back-beat that's absolutely begging for remixes for months and months to come. Be sure to check the blog for Fooch's new joint, Classic Made, hosted by DJ Logikal, as well as Kidz in the Hall's own Naledge. Brainiac Society's always doin' some serious work.

Without further ado, we present -

Flows Ferocious, the first official video from Fooch's mixtape, Classic Made.

--

Next, we've gotten our hands on the newest official video from Lane Weaver. We've tossed the original song on the blog before, but now we have this official video premiere to back it up. Lane's presence on the blog has skyrocketed traffic almost every time his name is mentioned. Seriously. We average around twenty more views than we usually do every time he drops a track or new video, so I have no reason to doubt that this new joint, titled "From Her", will be a cult classic. Bustin' out the wobble on this, Lane reveals some of his more electronic-based background, while still applying his signature hip-hop accents. It's a pretty nice combo, but you don't need me tellin' you. Watch for yourself!

You saw it here first --

Lane Weaver's new official video, "From Her".

--

And just to show some love to Captain Captain Industries new-comer Naledge, we're throwin' this fan-made video of his groove-hop jam, "Star Struck" on the front page. I gotta say it again though -- Brainiac Society's doin' some WORK out here.

--

What we're on is dangerous. Be sure to catch Lane Weaver, Ill & Natti, and Utopia Park live @ the Beauty Shop (Fairfield, IA) 12/11/10. (Notice the date goes down a number, which probably means you shouldn't miss this show.)

Also, the Beauty Shop needs some financial boostin'. Don't worry! It won't cost you a dime -- you've heard of the Pepsi Refresh Project, right? Well, if not, you've gotta do some research. For those who know, I'd like to extend a hand to my brothers and sisters down on Main Street by re-posting this new video live on Captain Captain Industries. Be sure to vote every day -- starting tomorrow, December 1st. Together, we can make some waves.

--

Big day in local music, huh? Looks like you've got yourself some vid's to check out. I'll leave you to it, while I go hobble around in the new snowfall.

Always good to hear from ya'.

Fooch Tha' MC // Purple Asteroid Cadillac

Chicago is known for quite a few things. The pinnacle of the Michael Jordan era, Mr. Man of the Hour - Kanye West, the authenticity of Wrigley Field, the infamous Super Bowl Shuffle, President Barack Obama, and of course Ditka's.

Hold up a minute now. We gotta add one more to the list --

Ladies and gent's -- Captain Captain Industries Presents :
Local Midwest hip-hop pioneer, Fooch (a.k.a. - Nick Stylz)

Fooch represents not only Chicago (as well as Southeastern Iowa hip-hop), but he also rep's the up-and-comers from Brainiac Society. In between chillin' with Kidz in the Hall and catching his breath between various Purple Asteroid Cadillac gigs, he's found time to team up with DJ Logikal to bring you what may be the Mixtape of the Month. Plus, he's a damn nice dude. Don't pass this one up. You'd regret it.

While I'm at it, hit up Fooch, SHZA, Zach, and the Captain's long-time compadre, Jason, over at Purple Asteroid Cadillac's Reverb Page.

Straight outta the bio, y'all -

"Purple Asteroid Cadillac, [or simply THA P.A.C.] combine live instruments with the flyest emcee in the state to create a sound that is completely new and finds influence in every genre.

Fooch is part of the Brainiac Society and has been an emcee for a number of years. SHZA [I laughed when I first read the name. At least ya' know the bass player listens to the staples. Wu-Tang is here forevaaa'!] studied jazz and blues in college. The two decided to combine elements and form a band. Jason was discovered playing guitar in a coffee shop and with his background and resources, quickly agreed to join. Zack moved to the area from Seattle and has played with several touring bands, but joined after finding this project was the first truly original group he has found.

In P.A.C.'s first show, they attracted a large crowd that danced and cheered, begging for the band to play more songs."

- Purple Asteroid Cadillac's Biography on ReverbNation.

Can't touch that, huh? Finally good to get a post on here about the P.A.C. They could arguably be one of my favorite groups around this place. Take a listen for yourself -- they've developed quite the following. Plus, the P.A.C. merch is (pun intended) outta this world.

Figured you all needed your daily dose of hip-hop. Now go snatch that mixtape!

Local Swag #2

Oh man! I get home from another tiring day at the Industry, runnin' on 3-4 hours of sleep, and I see this little gem poppin' up left and right. Gives me some hope for our local town swagger.

Final verdict?
He says it himself -- "Lane Weaver : Synonymous with dopeness".

All you cats with eagle eyes, peep this video at around 1:49. Yeah boy; that's some Fooch right thar'. Look for his material (as well as his absolute ballin' crew, Purple Asteroid Cadillac) to pop up soon enough on Captain Captain Industries. I just need to get some time to do them some blog-justice.

Anyways, I'm sweatin'. Just got done testin' out the new leopard-print bike around ze loop trail. I'll see you at work tomorrow.

No excuses, phone-ins, etc.
