FLY-T INTERVIEW IN RAGO MAGAZINE

2010-01-05T11:11:00.001-08:00

Scotland’s Hip-Hop scene has carved up some legends over the years, now there’s a production team that really deserve their props. Welcome to the ‘real Hip-Hop’ sound of Capitol 1212. Brendan Deane hooked up with DJ Fly-T who has a DJ has won mixing competitions and shared stages with Ghostface Killah, Q Bert, Rob Swift, DJ Premier & Guru aka Gang Starr, Souls of Mischief, Kool Keith and more… Read on to get the lowdown!
Where are you from and what’s the Hip-Hop scene like there?
Originally I’m from up north in the Highlands I’m now based In Edinburgh, Scotland. The scene is all right, the different elements all seem to have their time but not always all at once. Few years ago there was a lot of DJ’s doing their thing, right now the producers are impressing me more than anyone in Scotland, a lot of guys working with UK’s biggest names as well as MC’s in the US.

How did you get into music and is there anybody or anything you credit as an influence?
I’ve always been into music and started on the turntables around 16, 17 years ago after seeing Jam master jay cut up Mary Mary. Public Enemy and Run DMC were probably the biggest influence as far as Hip Hop

As a producer you’ve worked with quite a few artists, but for those that don’t know tell us who you worked with?
I’ve worked with various artists as their DJ but production wise myself and Professa Fresh have produced for the likes of ED OG, Jungle Brothers, Cadence, Tenor Fly, Grandmaster Caz, Donald D, MCM (Caveman), and Time Machine, Serocee, Mr Bang On and more.

Out of all the artists that you have worked with what was the most memorable experience and why?
There’s been too many, meeting up with Caz in New York was cool, also just working with guys who are my favorite artists, not a lot of people can say they have worked with their favorite artists. My favorite LP of all time was Ed Og’s first LP so to get him on a track was dope. Same goes for current MC’s like Profisee, Serocee and California’s Time Machine. These guys are what I listen to on my I pod so to grab them all for my next record is amazing. 2009 has been a great year for recording; now I just got top let people hear the music

So what you released to date and what releases have your beats been on?
As I’ve mentioned I’ve done cuts for various bands and groups here in UK as well as doing scratches for New York MC Rise (Demigodz). Beat wise we have been on various compilations Like “Temple of Breaks” but we have released a few singles last year that you can still buy ‘Raw and Disorder EP’ on Kool Kat Records and ‘Where I’m At EP’ on Big Toes Hi Fi

When did you actually start making beats?
Not that long a few years now, got into it through DJ’ing and meeting Professa Fresh. He is the other half of Capitol 1212. He is very accomplished in the studio and a great producer so I’m learning from him

How long did it take you to get moving and what was your first release?
It all happened fairly fast what with my contacts from DJ’ing and Promoting and Professa Fresh’ studio knowledge. First releases within first year and a bit, the first productions were all on compilations but our first proper release was the Raw and Disorder EP which has sold nicely in various countries like Japan, Germany, Italy, Canada etc. It featured homegrown talent Profisee, Mikel Krumins as well as Syndicate Sniper Donald D and Grandmaster Caz.

What’s your studio set up like?
I live in small flat in city centre so with all my vinyl it doesn’t leave a lot of room except for computer, we mainly record around at Professa Fresh’s place, which I call 1212 studios in homage to the original one that burnt down in New York. Around there we have the usual computer set up (Cubase) as well as Decks, Guitars, bass, mic's etc.

What’s your favourite bit of kit in the studio?
Mine would be the turntable so that we can sample that lil piece of heaven that is going to make the track. Professa Fresh’s would probably be his mixing desk as the last studio set up was a health and safety nightmare, cables everywhere

Do you have any studio tips for any producers coming into the game?
Experiment and feel free to jus make what feels good to you, but at the same time learn your music learn the history about the genre you’re trying to break into. It’s only going to help you as far knowing what has already been done. It will also open your mind to the various sounds and techniques that you can use.

When you set out to make a track do you have a certain formula that you work too?
We have done in the past our first EP I was listening to a lot of Paul C/Ultra Magnetic's etc. and we wanted it to sound retro, from the drums to the BPM. This time around for all our new material that’s coming out in 2010 we have thrown the rulebook out. We have brought in a lot more live instruments and sounds.

So is there anything you are working on or promoting at the moment?
2010 really is going to be a busy year; we have spent 2009 recording a lot of new songs, keep checking our web page to find out as we have a lot of releases on various labels hitting the shops through out the year. To start with we are putting out “History of Silence EP” in March .It features a great posse cut called “Fiyah” featuring ED OG, Mr Bang On, Profisee and Serocee. The flip side has a track from Edinburgh based MC Profisee called No more Deceit. We are putting this out on our new label 1212 Records. Around the same time we have a dancehall ep/45 coming out with Tenor Fly and Serocee, we’ll be shooting the video for this soon down in London. Coming into April we have an exciting project with some of the artists I have mentioned like MCM from legendary UK group Caveman and Jungle Brothers, It going to be great record and its going to take people back to a time in hip hop that they may have forgotten about.

Forget budgets and the politics, if you could work with any Hip-Hop artist who would it be and why?
It would have to be Jay Z, still love everything he does from his first output until now. Saying that Chuck D from Public Enemy would be great, I think we could produce the greatest P.E. LP since Apocalypse 91. Our new b side track No More Deceit is how I’d like to think PE’s beats should sound now.

Okay forget about Hip-Hop for a minute, is there anybody outside of our genre you would like to work with and why?
Well we are currently working with an artist called Danny Diamond who is a singer/song writer from Leeds; I think he could be the next crossover/next big thing. Also we are getting to be as known for our reggae productions as we are our hip hop, I think once we get all this material out our next LP maybe purely reggae.

Do you have a My Space page?
www.myspace.com/capital1212

People are jumping from My Space to Facebook and Twitter. It seems there are loads of these type of websites popping up. What’s your whole take on the Internet and these social networking websites?
One minute I love it next I hate it. For instance when I learnt to DJ I didn’t know anyone who DJ’ed so I listened to tapes and tried to replicate what I heard, now you can go straight to You Tube and learn all the cuts from tutorials, makes it easier but takes a bit of the hard graft element out of it. Also now as soon as someone decides they want a label or to be rapper they write their first song and put it straight up on forums claiming it is their first single. I’m glad I had people tell me things were bad before I let the world hear them as there is stuff no one will hear, these guys better hope they don’t make it big as there is going to be a lot of whack songs by them floating about forever more

Our homie Profisee's dope new release

2009-10-25T14:58:00.000-07:00

'ZONING' // 'WHAT IT SEEMS' EP
PROFISEE X EPROM
Label: Cloak X Dagger
Vinyl X Digital

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

"On the run like I'm Logan......"

Cloak X Dagger are proud to present their first release on plastic and digital formats. You have 7 days to download your exclusive "Zoning//What it Seems" package before it terminates.
Enjoy.........

The Zoning E.P is a collaborative project envisioned by the Scotland's resident MC Profisee and San Francisco based producer Eprom. Both artists operate outside the conventions and rules of traditional hip hop and dance music culture, which is what makes the Zoning E.P all the more special. It's regional, global, progressive... and best of all, sounds ballistic on the club floor. Futurist beats collide with introspective vocals, bass heavy and zoned out to its core, taking their style to another dimension.

Prof is no stranger to the mic, over the years he has worked with the likes of Neil Landstrumm, Process Rebel, Yard Emcees, Hexstatic and forthcoming joints already bubbling with Poirier Sound.
Now is the time for Profisee to solidify himself as a solo artist.

The vinyl release will include an exclusive tribal reworking of "Zoning" from LuckyMe head honcho's The Blessings, plus reduxes of both tracks on the digital format from Vigilante, (Great Ezcape) possessed by Beethoven. Edinburgh's own hip hop impresario Nasty P and new artist RVLT.
The Zoning Ep is set to break the mould and cast off any stigma attached to regional UK emcees.

Check it out and let us know what you think... Profisee will be available for radio/press interviews and sessions. Please get intouch.

THE LIST MAGAZINE TOP TEN SCOTTISH ACTS

2009-06-03T10:55:00.000-07:00

1212 IN THA TOP TEN ALONG WIT HUDSON MO,PROFISEE ETC. IN THE NEW LIST MAGAZINE

David Pollock selects ten of Scotland’s brightest hip hop talents

MC SOOM T
Combining fierce vocal ability with commercial versatility, fast-rapping Glaswegian Sumati Bhardwaj has opened for Basement Jaxx and Aphex Twin, and performed diverse styles such as reggae with Mungo’s Hi-Fi and folk alongside The Burns Unit.
www.myspace.com/mcsoomt

PROFISEE/CLOAK X DAGGER
Around since the days of the Scotland Yard MCs, Profisee is a solo artist and the former co-promoter of Edinburgh’s Volume dubstep and grime night. His partner Ema Johnson used to be involved there too and the pair now record together as Cloak X Dagger.
www.myspace.com/profisee

YOUNG FATHERS
Starting out as a boyband in their teens, the Edinburgh trio have grown up (sorta) and grabbed attention in NME, Front, Arena and of course nabbed a List cover for themselves. The commercial face of Scottish hip hop, they’re a crew of effortless party-starters.
www.myspace.com/youngfathers

CAPITOL 1212
A throwback to the good ol’ days when a rap single wasn’t a rap single without a massive string sample from an old soul track over the top, Edinburgh producers Fly-T and Professa Fresh make fine music. Also check out their DJ sets around the country and their debut single on Mungo’s Hi-Fi.
www.myspace.com/capital1212

TIGERSTYLE
Influenced as much by Dr Dre and Ice Cube as they are desi and bhangra sounds, Glaswegian brothers Raj and Pops are fixtures on the local scene and set to go further. Bobby Friction is a fan and they’re signed to the Panjabi MC-breaking Nachural label.
www.myspace.com/tigerstyleonline

NORTHERN XPOSURE
This isn’t a time for Sugababes and Girls Aloud, is it?’ asks Northern Xposure’s Eunice Olumide. ‘But that’s what the bourgeoisie want us to listen to. As long as we don’t think about reality while they make their money and ruin the economy and the economies of other poor countries suffering in the world.’
Not the kind of thing a Scots-Nigerian girl from a council estate in Edinburgh’s Sighthill should be concerning herself with, right? Wrong, of course. The only one of her peer group who went to university, Olumide would travel to London in her mid-teens and rapped on the same stages as a pre-fame Mike Skinner and Estelle. She’s toured the world since with her older brother Ibrahim and the Northern Exposure crew – a bunch of kids from the local area who help with performing, production and crewing. ‘This band isn’t a youth club,’ says Olumide, ‘though sometimes it feels like it’.
www.myspace.com/nrnxpo

HUDSON MOHAWKE & RUSTIE
Call it ‘aquacrunk’ if you like, but there’s more than a bit of hip hop in the squelchy, space-adventurer sound of the LuckyMe Collective’s most well-known, Warp-signed artists. Also see; Jay P, The Blessings, Dema, Nadsroic, Mr Copy, Éclair FiFi.
www.thisisluckyme.com

KYON AND DYEMS
Also on Crystal Wish, the elusive Kyon and Dyems post only childhood photos of themselves on MySpace, but make atmospheric electronic pop with a large amount of Scots-accented MCing going on.
www.myspace.com/kyonanddyems

HYDRO
The Glasgow-born, Bronx-raised MC does big, beefy, high-gloss jams and raised his profile previously having collaborated with N.O.R.E. and Busta Rhymes.
www.myspace.com/hydroglasgow

S-TYPE AND JAISU
Mates Bobby and Olly from Edinburgh work together and separately on a range of old-school productions with an electro edge, which are earning them work with artists like Prince Po and Sha Stimuli. Bobby’s older brother is in Found, which is a good eclecticism indicator.

Strictly Kings and Capitol 1212 are gonna be joining forces , " Im feeling all the designs i've seen by em, I like my Hip Hop clothing to represent my taste in Hip Hop music, dope and classic "says DJ Fly-T
Check the website here where you can buy the shirts Fly-T and Professa Fresh are wearing in the picture above at the Ghostface Killah gig, O2 Academy.
