Your folks at Freshjive/Reserve bring you Vol 1 of Steady Machine Show (click the image above and you can stream)

The Steady Machine Show was contrived by Mestizo of Machina Muerte and Dumbfoundead of Knock Steady with resident in house DJ ZO. The two West Coast heavyweight emcees decided to pull together the extremely odd and the undeniably talented artists of Los Angeles they know and throw them on Reserve Radio to expose audiences to new and unheard forms of music. Expect nothing but the rarest and rawest artists featured on The Steady Machine Show.

The Gaslamp Killer was a West Coast dirty drum, neck-break beat phenomenon, but as of lately has become a worldwide house hold name in the mouths of eager nutcases waiting for his return to ears and venues. Gaslamp was kind enough to come down to The Steady Machine Show and start off our tirade with a 35 minute murder mix. If you haven t had the chance to see this man in person, every Wednesday night he s at the world famous Low End Theory Club in Los Angeles. Gaslamp left the tracklist to the listeners imagination, so do your homework on the GLK

According to a statement released to Allhiphop.com, Guru’s surgery went well and he is weak but recovering:

“I am doing fine and I am recovering! I’m weak though,” Guru told AllHipHop.com in a statement today. “Solar is the only person who has the accurate info on my situation. Any info from anybody else is false! I appreciate your well wishes and all the love!”

We’ve just been notified by UPS that they are suspending pick up/delivery in parts of New York, New Jersey & Pennsylvania.  We’re guessing it’s a similar situation for USPS.  Even if you still have service, there are delays across the board because of transportation delays at hubs etc.   Please be aware of this when ordering and have mercy on your local carriers (and our customer service staff!)

The World’s Got Problems: Rick Klotz from hypebeast.tv on Vimeo.

Head of Freshjive, Rick Klotz, talks about the new direction of the line and why they’re taking their name off of everything.  Maybe a little bit “bite the hand that feeds you”, but I kinda just feel like we’re all getting old.
