Music/Technology/Entrepreneurship and whatever else we come across: The chronicles of two up & coming SUPER producers/ business men, hundreds of miles from home, trying to make it in the EVIL music industry, start a business (Immitter.com) and balance their everyday lives. There will be a quote or word of the day, photos, music, videos and anything else that interests us. There will also be sporadic journal entries of our exploits and you will either see us rise to the top or crash and burn. Post By Post. Let the story begin...

You can be great with a modest studio set up.  A peep into J Dilla’s LA home studio.

J Dilla: Behind The Beat (Poster)

Back in 2005, photographer Raph Rashid was hoping to complete a book of  hip-hop home studios by getting pics of J Dilla at work in Los Angeles.   Unknown to all but a small circle of people at the time, J Dilla had  been in and out of the hospital all year dealing with increasingly  serious health problems.  It was summer, during a brief period when  Dilla was home, working on The Shining, looking and feeling good, when Raph came to take this picture. It was published with others later that year in his book Behind the Beat: Hip-Hop Home Studios. 

Poster will be available for purchase through StonesThrow Feb 14
