Tuomo In The House!

The beautiful man that is TUOMO (aka Organ Kane aka TP aka Uncle Tom aka T-Prattlez) blessed us with his soulful presence in the studio today! Thrilled to have him along for the new album.

We’re working on a new track that features both Tuomo and Noah Kin on guest vocals. Old school style back-2-back rap action, and a strong Jurassic 5 Concrete Schoolyard type of vibe. Things are moving along fast right now! Feeling good, feeling great!

Also, be sure to check out Tuomo’s solo material, cause it’s hot. H.O.T.T.

Rip It Up LIVE (in the Metro!)

26/02/13

The good folks at Luomustudio recently asked us to pick a tune from our latest album, strip it down to bare essentials, and then perform it for them on camera in a location of our choice. So we asked the amazing Petteri Sariola to grab his mom’s upright bass, got the incredible Tuomo Prättälä to hop on a train from Pori after a late night show, and dragged the young rhyming master Noah Kin out of bed on a lazy Sunday afternoon – and did this.

Rip It Up feat. Noah Kin, Tuomo & Petteri Sariola ORGANIX STYLE. On the Helsinki Metro! (Where else would Father Metro & his posse go?) We think it came out great. And no, music isn’t allowed to be played on the trains, and yes, we were notified about causing a disturbance. So sorry, we won’t do it again! Check out the end result right here:

RIP RIP RIP RIPPITUUUP!

Alright, it’s not exactly a new song, in fact it’s all of six years old, but still new in the sense that most of you will not have heard it before. Rain No. 968 was released back in 2007 as a bonus track on the Limited Japanese Edition of the self-titled album Don Johnson Big Read More

DJBB tekee historiaa Nosturissa!

17/01/13

Vuosi 2013 jysähti mahtavasti käyntiin Groningenissa, ja pian panokset kovenevat entisestään. Pääsiäisenä Don Johnson Big Band tekee historiaa Helsingin Nosturissa: lauantaina 30. maaliskuuta Suomessa ensimmäistä kertaa koskaan järjestettävä livebändin “Silent gig” on nimensä mukaisesti äänetön keikka. Yleisölle jaetaan sisään tullessa langattomat Sennheiserin kuulokkeet, joiden kautta koko keikan ääni välitetään. PA:sta ei siis tule ääntäkään. Mahtava Read More
