Heh.. Long time no c, y'all! - I've been hard @ work making music..
Anyway, thought I'd drop by and see whats crackin' here thse days.
Hey, I finally got my drivers license and moved!

So, this here's my first show (heh) and poster..



(I know not many people on the forums are in reasonable range/ WA area) but feel free to listen to my new singles + older stuff @ www.myspace.com/gemziploccog
And, download these limited tracks @ www.myspace.com/ziploccmusic before they're replaced (if you like) they're all free for the grab as the show must go on!!..


I've been on the lay low round here, I know, but I just dug up a classic shot of my 'ol setup days before I left for better times (with the sad chafing of my drunk mo'f-n friend dessimatin' my G15 , sad, quite..)
Oh, how she was a beauty:


Heh, I invite tha PcApex crew to read my (Locc-rating: 14yo+) blog at your own discretion..
'Apex-exclusive for y'all now: my booth is a walk-in clostet!..

Comments appreciated..

I'm open to new ideas if anyone is interested in being featured on a track (considering the unspoken presence of many poets/ rappers/ mc's I know's posted up here or even swoopin' by for a chop spec).
I'll try and keep an eye on the scene here, wish me luck @ tha show!..

Just like you said that people from not WA might have trouble going, but I hope you the best!

welcome back
I still don't have my driver's license; but it's alright, I get by with my sister's bike

anywho, I listened to the song that comes on, when you go to the first link, well, not the whole thing, I don't really listen to that kind of music, but I can say, to me, it sounds like it wasn't made in a basement, which I guess is very good, in this case

I wish you the best of luck at the show, and congratulations on getting your driver's license

Thanks y'all!




Me & fellow (Locc Records) MC - Boo Bear opened the show!! - Boo actually lights up a joint as part of the third song and some people where clearly awestrucken.. - I also threw out (hard jewel-cased) E.P's as a part of the intro song, almost hit a cameraman & spiked some chick in the ass I think..

Killa V came on next:

Last (but not least) was (some of) the R.E.B.E.L Firm (kinda famous in Seattle area/ radio):

This guy's been rapping since before I even went to middleschool! (I recall seeing some of his free shows bacc in the day - actually liked his ol' stuff a bit more - kinda immortal technique-ish, more politically-driven):

Me & AK47 ( Heavy Metal Warrior) strike a pose - (not fully in the pic - I throw up CH2):


Heh... I'm actually working on a track with the AK right now but planning a free show (I hope) to get some of the bigger hardcore acts from the states at (Knothead & the B.B.N crew etc.) & our local Polished Opinion (alternative hiphop) to open it..
Thanks again y'all by the way for the support. It was an awesome show. I woke up drunk ehehe.. (I usually try to keep better control of my "festives" but sometimes the occasion just arises!)
& thanks 'bout the soundquality - I really try and sqeeze every last bit out of that dynamic PG58. I'm about to do a real big studio upgrade tho - nice MXL condenser mic (real pop filter) and fully acoustical-foam-padded recording booth walls. Wish I had all the time in the world - gotta hop on tha good foot 'n do tha bad thing to work (I need a new shoe for the bad foot - no really!!)
