Count Bass D

Damu posted about Count Bass D last week. A couple days later Count dropped a free instrumental project entitled "Robbed Without A Pistol," which is available for download here.

Count says, "Robbed ... is just an excercise. Most of these beats are warm up beats where I take something obvious and try to be creative." Count Bass has a project called L7 (Mid-Life Crisis) will be released next month on 1320 Records.

This is one of my personal favorite songs from Count Bass D: "Down Easy"




On the Damu side, we have some really dope projects in the works. I don't wanna over hype anything, the quality will speak for itself.

Not much more about to say until things are closer to completion but if you've liked what you heard so far, stay tuned and you will not be disappointed.

Until then, it would be appreciated if you let your people know about Damu's Overtime project: burn em a copy or send em the file.

All the way Live
