Doctor Jeep is one of my favorite producer names I’ve heard in awhile. Biggin up my new friend Andre – Doctor Jeep out of Boston.
Came across his new track ‘Level II’ on XLR8R two weeks ago and sent him a message on the Soundcloud. Doctor Jeep’s beats and tastes mirror my own, which is a very rare thing in the Northeast..even including NYC…classic rave, UK Bass, with clear influences from regional American club sounds like Juke and Baltimore Club. I know the average reader on here isn’t that into listening to club tracks individually (don’t worry cause these will be on my next mixtape), but these tracks are ILL and are putting the Northeast on the map.
Level II is the one that hooked me. It’s got a vocal sample from one of the best chicago rave tracks of all time by one of the best producers of all time, so that’s a fine start.

This is an EP put out just in February by Banana Peel records, which seems like a quality label. The first track is like 8 minutes long and so epic. I hate to do the comparisons, but Ramadanman style percussion mutations (PLEASE do yourself a favor and look him up) with a definite unique twist. Not familiar with either of the remixers, but they are top notch. I’m going to play all of these.

So yeah, giving my new pal Doctor Jeep some exposure here, I count myself as a big fan. Hmmm I think maybe look out for him in Albany sometime soon.

Last night, 4,500 of our closest friends flocked around the outside of the historic Washington Avenue Armory and pulsed inside for hours, hands up and asses out. Bass heads were summoned, from all over the Capital Region and beyond, to board the mother ship back home to get lost in the spacey electronic sounds for a few fast-paced hours.
Bassnectar, the moniker for DJ and electronic music producer Lorin Ashton, attracted an eclectic and colorful crowd to the auditorium, where everyone communally drank up the sweet nectar of his sound swarm. Also hitting the decks were opening acts Eliot Lipp and EOTO. It was truly impressive that this show started on time, given that the staff had to accommodate an event that was at capacity for the entire evening, as well as host a solid bill of 3 different electronic acts. Despite the scattered line outside the Armory, which stretched around the block, moving fairly quickly, I still didn’t catch a single beat from Lipp. Eliot Lipp accompanied Bassnectar on 10 shows of his majority sold out spring tour, which spanned the east coast from Providence to Burlington to Portland to Boston, with a final stop in our fair city.
Lipp recently released a collaborative remix album, Brolabs, which you can download here for free. Highlight tracks include “It’s Time To Leave,” remixing with Pretty Lights, Big Gigantic on “Yeah,” and Mux Mool on “The Outside.” Each song was created with a personal touch and some face time, not done via trading samples over the Internet. He’s up to some good things these days and I recommend you keep him on your radar upcoming, especially with this summer’s festival spread in mind.

This is a guest post from Caroline Corrigan. Thanks Caroline!
While some argue that Troy is trying desperately to cling on to the shred of hipness it held in the Capital Region for a few years, there are some things that are still making it a beautiful, cool, historic city. Things like the year-round farmer’s market, its tight walkability, a handful of antique shops and small boutiques, The Troy Bike Rescue, Brown’s Brewery, and The Arts Center.
But wait, you’ve never heard of The Arts Center? After working there for nearly two years, I’m not surprised. There’s a combination of issues—people not crossing the Hudson for fear of the unknown “Troilet,” perhaps a lack of funding for advertising, and having only maintained an audience base of people between the ages of 40-60. As one of the only twenty-somethings on staff at The Arts Center, I’ve struggled to get friends through the door for our art openings, performances, classes, and have even bugged some of my really talented friends to teach photography and cooking workshops (ahem, Andrew is teaching a photography class in May). Slowly but surely, I’m working hard to make sure people are aware of this place, and some of the great things that we do.
I’ve got one.
Come to the opening reception for History of The World: Owen Sherwood + Andrew DeGraff in the Main Gallery next Friday, April 29th. Yes, there will be free food. Yes, there will be wine. Yes, the artists will be there.
History of the World features illustrators and artists Owen Sherwood and Andrew DeGraff in a vibrant collection of drawings, paintings, and site-specific wall-based works. The combination of draftsmanship, fantasy, surrealism, humor and an oddball-pop sensibility offers up a special glimpse into the world of these two artists, transforming the gallery into a walk-in sketchbook. For fans of the more graphic shows from Marketplace Gallery, like the Just Seeds poster exhibition, or fans of local artists like Radical!, this show will impress you, make you laugh, and make you think, “shit, these guys are so good!”
