  • Mass Appeal links up with Thelonious Martin on this episode of Rhythm Roulette.
    In this week's edition of Rhythm Roulette we met up with Thelonious Martin at A1 Records on Manhattan's Lower East Side. Hot off the heels of last week's release of Molotov, his joint album with Brooklyn's very own Saga, Martin took us to Virtue and Vice Studios in Williamsburg to show us how one of Chicago's finest producers chops up a sound he doesn't usually work with.
    "I've been on record saying, I'm not a fan of disco….unfortunately", Martin told the crew at Mass Appeal.

    Yeah, but DISCO records have a heap of good drum and perc oneshots to chop up...
    Think about early drum machines, and just drums played for a floor, and treated to give a lot of presence,
    recorded onto 2 inch tape, via an old analog desk with juicy old preamps, and you have a sample library you see selling 30-50$$ these days...
