New Music: Sir Manley- Evolution Of A Beat Maker- Leftovers Volume 1 02-07

21 05 2012

One of the most inspiring individuals I’m blessed to call a friend in this life, Sir Manley, just released a collection of previously unheard instrumental music. I am just now listening to the project as I type… Here’s an explanation of the project from the man himself.

This project is an attempt to showcase the progress and growth of my production experience. None of these tracks have been mixed, they are all in raw form either a single fruity loop, magix, cool edit, cubase export. Instead of having these sit on my computer I decided to create this series of Leftovers. Sir Manley -5/20/2012

Also, here’s a link to Never Lost Touch, an EP produced by Sir Manley, featuring Thesis on vocals and DJ Eminent behind the turntables.

Cannon Productions comes thru with a video of a song that was in progress at the time it was captured…The beat was a birthday present from Nixon. These verses, including a sharper version of the third will appear over different Nixon production in the future.
