LOUISDEN BEAT CYPHER 07 | OCTOBER 22ND 2009 SUNFLOWER LOUNGE BIRMINGHAM UK
-------------------------------------------------------------------
In August we had our second international guests in form of FS GREEN, SIR OJ and FULL CRATE (sharing DJ duties with CRO) SHEARS and URBAN MONK. We're bringing the Beat Cypher back home with this installment giving you the same quality fresh beats but a little closer to home!. This time round we'll be showcasing beats from APATIGHT, DOCKMINI, KNOX BROWN and NAIVE. Dropping some live material over the nights beats will be the TACTICAL THINKING crew and Birmingham's own PROFESSOR D & R.TILLERY.
Seems like its been forever but its only been the usual 2 months!! LETS GOOOOOOO!.. we've got the usual OPEN BEATS where producers of all levels are encouraged to bring some material to test the crowd reaction (3 beats max) and those feeling like they want to take something home can compete in the legendary BUCKS FIZZ BEAT BATTLE where names dawn out of a hat can compete for a bottle of bubbly and bragging rites as the Louis Den Bucks Fizz Beat Battle Winner!!...this time round prizes kindly come courtesy of BASEMENT SESSIONS and KING APPAREL, finally it wouldn't be a beat cypher with our very own DJ CRO providing the backdrop of hip-hop beats, breaks and treats inbetween the nights action.
Now you know We'll see you there!.

WELCOME TO THE DEN
Louis a Staffs Terrier (not pictured) was kind enough to let us use his premises for the purpose of making beats all he asks for is to come in once and while and see whats being cooked up;
Louis Den is the Birmingham based lab currently used by Sonnyjim & Kosyne to make beats; write and lace tracks.
Although they knew each other's work and unknowingly crossed paths in the past it wasnt until actually meeting through recording artist SKRIEN, KOSYNE decided to get KELAKOVSKI down to the lab and link with other producers DARREN PAUL and EYEBS for regular beat sessions....chill, listen to each others beats, go through samples and make beats; later we'd set HOMEWORK...(samples we'd agree on to make beats with in time for the next time we'd meet up).
After blogging a couple of these sessions through video plenty other producers showed an interest and we decided to set challenges to everyone and film the results next time we linked up..and almost accidenlty Louis Den Beat Battles was born!.
Through myspace and our own individual links we've gotten a steady bunch of regulars who either enter beats online or come through in the flesh to the lab for Louis Den episodes where we play the homework beats..offer comments and generally just geek out and chill to the works offerings.
GET DOWN WITH US

do you think producers should get more respect and recognition??
we do, thats why we started the bangers instrumental mixtape just for up and coming producers to get their beats heard around the industry and in the streets,our tapes are all over,worldwide trust and believe thats a fact.if your a smart producer that wants to get more exposure and start getting your name heard and respected,get a slot on bangers now.this mixtape is the future of rising star producers.only $100 a slot.
lloyd banks,lil kim,uncle murda and more have used beats off of the bangers mixtape,in fact the song "cold corner" by lloyd banks was is his title track and name of his mixtape,it was directly off of the bangers mixtape,listen here u can hear the bangers tag all through the beat!!
