Hello friends,

I have a new project out now called Wizard Of Cause. It is very different from the JTodd tracks...but I find most people to be pretty open minded these days.  This is a lo-fi noise pop LP, and if you are a fan of things like Deerhunter or Wavves or Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti then there is something here for you.

It's out now on itunes so please give it a listen.

Thanks errybody!

Well it's been real good having some down time...although getting solid sleep is always a rarity for me, last night I was out for 9 hours. Finally feeling a little more normal...

Hanging out in London today and it's beautiful...70 degrees, sunny, ahhh...going to Munich tomorrow to slam some bass thru the system and see how Ghettotech they are over there. For now though I'm gonna head over to Camden and have a drink with David Laub...and see if I can find a Heavy Metal cover band to watch like the last time I was there.

I miss the crew back home and I'm looking forward to being in the cut with you again next week...hold it down till then.

Top 5 this week:

DJ Blaqstarr - Shake It To The Ground

Kid Cudi - Day N' Nite

Juiceboxxx and Dre Skull - Center Stage

Kid Sister - Damn Girl

Glass Candy - Rolling Down The Hills

 

Be Awesssss! Love-J

 

 

Greetings.

So I’ve been beatboxing...among other things. I have a show coming up and it’s going to be me and only me all by myself...well not if you count the several tiny audio computers that will accompany me onstage. So ok, it’s me who is still at least half human and uhhh, 3? No 5...yes 5 small yet powerful devices to organize and push electronic impulses into your brains as I sing about love, hate, rejection, astrology, anger, mental illness, the weather, and memory loss.

I’ve been doing some things with a loop station and it’s been real interesting...and humbling. But I figure even if I fuck it all up it will put a little bit of organic error back into the otherwise glossy world of electronic music and these days it seems failure is the new success...although it may be more accurate to say accidental weirdness is the new normal. And there will be plenty of that I’m sure.

Anywayzzz...it’s this Saturday at the Cactus Club in Milwaukee. Some other great folks are playing as well: Mystery Palace is great. The others I’ve not experienced yet...but there will be beer.

Come on down...my newest computer does a mean fadeout!

Luv-J

To all my fine friends...just a reminder that tonight, Thursday Feb 8, Beat Dimensions kicks off at the Stonefly Brewery. An entire evening dedicated to the fantastic art of Beatstrumental music. Warm and heavy instrumental hip hop, funk, dubstep, and soul all night. Come out to sip and move...there will be NO COVER! Just be sure to tip your bartender...

See you there,

JTodd

So...finally I get back to making some new instrumental tracks. Been hard at work on the Leo Minor album, but took some time out to get into the slow shit again. The results are now posted.

...and perhaps not so coincidentally...

There is a new JTodd instrumental track 'The Night' now available on the Beat Dimensions Vol 1 (Ep3) 12inch on Rush Hour Records. Available through their website. Check and buy!

Peace-J

What up ya'll!! My new cd is out now. A mixture of new songs, previews, collaborations, and vocal redux bits. From conscious crunk to ghettotech to chill-out to 80s funk to bass-rap...it is guaranteed to bump! Featuring production by Old Man Malcolm, J Dilla, Sa-Ra, and of course, JTodd.

Available in Milwaukee at Atomic Records.

If you dont live in the Mil...send me a message. I will get paypal up on the page soon and we'll all be in the house.

Check it!

Love is the answer,

JTodd
