DStroy Downloads: New Deep Thinkers, CES Cru and more

Posted by Jason Harper on Tue, Aug 25, 2009 at 8:16 AM

Leonard DStroy ain't been lazin' this summer. The local DJ who built his rep alongside Brother of Moses in Deep Thinkers and collaborates with just about everybody in the scene from his roost high up in the INnatesounds Crew barn has a slew of sounds for you to right-click on, starting with an unreleased DTs track. It's from the Thinkers' upcoming album, Make It Quake, scheduled for release this fall on Wilshire District Records.

That should get you nice 'n warm for this juicy joint, off the brand new, DStroy-produced CES Cru full-length (their first official release in five years), Playground. This here's the title track and features MCs Godemis and Ubiquitous in typically brisk and intelligent form, rapping over a Lenny beat that sounds one part Persian head shop, one part Zero 7 and nine parts Interstellar Beat Swami (which is DStroy's unofficial new title). Note: CES plays its official release party this Friday at the Riot Room with guests Heltah Skeltah. (More on this later.)

Aspiring beatmakers and pros alike will want to take out their graph paper and make with the Euclidean notetaking while powering up this next free download. It's DStroy's 2009 Beat Sampler, a 25-minute taste of Lenny's favorite compositions from the year. (Link to Mediafire.)

Further into solo DStroy, here's a sampler version of his latest album, Game Over. It's framed as a podcast hosted by INnatesounds leader Miles Bonny. The full version, which features verses, vocals and other forms of musical expression from CES Cru, Reggie B, Joe Good, Taha of Heet Mob, Brother of Moses and more, is available for digital purchase at iTunes and Amazon. It's basically a cornucopia of homegrown KC hip-hop.
