  Speaker B: All right, welcome to unsigned 518. I am here with, with Bum Rush. How's it going?
• 0:33
  Speaker C: What's up, yo, yo.
• 0:35
  Speaker B: And so those that don't know, I guess we'll, we'll start over here to my left and just introduce yourself what you do in the band and then we'll, we'll go from there.
• 0:45
  Speaker C: All right. I go by vinyl collegist, United Crates. Kind of just a Albany hip hop dot connector for years. Done a lot of production for a lot of the artists around here. Work on a lot of my own stuff. Got, you know, big into like vintage stuff and, you know, just making music and trying to stay with the local scene, but not so much super involved but, you know, kind of just laying the cut.
• 1:19
  Speaker D: My name is Aesta. I, I, I used to go by the name of Paulie Nuggs. What I do is like, I'm kind of the backup guy. I help with the songs and all that other stuff. I don't really do that much in the group, but I'm just like the backups.
• 1:39
  Speaker B: The hype man.
• 1:40
  Speaker D: Yeah, the hype man.
• 1:41
  Speaker C: He's our moral support. He's here, you know, he's here to just kind of hang out and keep us kind of grounded, to know that, you know what I mean?
• 1:50
  Speaker D: I draw so many doing this for.
• 1:52
  Speaker C: The younger ones in the end. Yeah, you know, Bum Rush is for the children.
• 1:55
  Speaker E: Yeah. Mr. Pigs. I am the rapper of the group, the voice of Bum Rush, I guess you could say my man Von Ecologist. He, he handles all the production, he handles the cuts on the album. And he does do a little bit of rapping. But I'm pretty much the guy that goes in, lays the vocals down and creates the songs with his production and his cuts. And it's a match made in heaven.
• 2:33
  Speaker B: Nice. So I guess what we want to do is, you know, and Mr. Pigs, you've been on the show before. I should have remembered what episode it was so I could direct people, but I can't remember. But go back in the same feed that you're listening to the show in and somewhere Mr. Pigs has, has his episode. But this is a different project than, you know, just Mr. Pigs or pigsquisite. And I don't know if you noticed right up above You. Is my. My pigsquisite hat hanging there.
• 3:01
  Speaker E: Love it.
• 3:02
  Speaker B: But I gotta wear the orange.
• 3:03
  Speaker C: It's got the Harley orange in it.
• 3:05
  Speaker B: Yeah, it does. That's why it counts. That's why when people are like, where's your orange hat? I'm like, it's in the. It's in the lettering. It counts.
• 3:11
  Speaker E: But.
• 3:12
  Speaker B: So this is a different project from. From that. So I guess kind of tell the story of how it. It came together and what people can expect from Bum Rush.
• 3:22
  Speaker C: Okay, do you want to start or you want me?
• 3:24
  Speaker E: Yeah, why don't you start this one?
• 3:26
  Speaker C: Okay. So Pigs was a good friend of my brother, Ed Powers. What up?
• 3:33
  Speaker E: Shout out to Ed Powers.
• 3:35
  Speaker C: He. So he kind of introduced us. He was with, like, this group of these other guys that I, you know, have kind of looked up to us guys and been friends with for years. And, you know, we've always just kind of. They kind of been just laying in the cut when we were doing music and, you know, being there just like this guy is right now, you know, and they were just always hanging out. And he. I think he heard, like, a beat of mine on, like, my MySpace page, if you want to take it back that far. And he was like, yo. He's like, you know, ask your brother if I can use that beat. And I never actually even met him. And, like, he. I was like, yeah. I was like, that's, you know, something I made quick and threw it up there and whatever. And so he takes it and sends it back to me. And actually, he didn't send it back. I didn't hear it until it came out on his album. And I was like, damn. I was like. And then he, like, killed it. And I'm like, wow. I'm like, I should have just made him his own beat and gave him a. You know, not just gave him something that was done, but he wanted it, so it was like. And. And it came out incredible. And I was like, you know, let's work on some other stuff. And I think that's kind of. Right. Is that how kind of it kind of, yeah.
• 4:48
  Speaker E: I was actually working on my first studio album, Caught up in the Cap City. And, like, he said his brother Ed Powers used to be down with the Final Word crew, which is, you know, the guys that I did a lot of music in the 5:18 with. That's, you know, kind of like the record label, the crew, whatever. Yeah. So, yeah, I went on MySpace and I found this beat that. That caught my ear, and, you know, we connected the dots, and after we made the first song. We. We jumped in the studio together. He invited me to his studio and we started working on the bum roast stuff. And we are currently in our third installment. We have two albums out there on the Internet to go check out. So.
• 5:52
  Speaker C: Yeah, yeah. So that would be Bum Rush. It would be. What was the first one?
• 6:01
  Speaker E: More respect.
• 6:01
  Speaker C: More respect due. And then this one is going to be, with all due respect.
• 6:05
  Speaker E: Correct.
• 6:06
  Speaker B: And so, like, this is definitely not a new project.
• 6:09
  Speaker C: No, this is the third one. The first one we dropped, I think, in. What was it, like, 2013?
• 6:16
  Speaker D: No, 2019.
• 6:17
  Speaker C: No, the first one. The first.
• 6:20
  Speaker E: Yeah, the first one dates back.
• 6:22
  Speaker C: It was like 2013 or 2014, but it was done since like 2010. Like, we were working on it, like way back, I think. Right. Wasn't it that?
• 6:30
  Speaker E: Yeah. So what happens? The process is vinyl gives me beats, I go record. And he pretty much has the vault set where, you know, he. He keeps these songs until we're ready to release them. So, you know, we just compile songs, tons of songs, and eventually they turn into albums. So here we are with our third project getting ready to be released, and yeah, it's been a good ride.
• 7:03
  Speaker B: So basically, when you're sending Mr. Pigs the beats, like, they're like, the song is done and.
• 7:10
  Speaker C: No, no, I'm sending him. I'm sending him. Sometimes I'm sending him a shell.
• 7:15
  Speaker B: Gotcha.
• 7:15
  Speaker C: It's just. It's just a drum with, like samples on it and whatever. There's no. There's no hook. There's no.
• 7:21
  Speaker B: So you start writing it together, essentially.
• 7:24
  Speaker C: Yeah, he'll.
• 7:24
  Speaker B: He.
• 7:25
  Speaker C: He will. Or a lot of times, like, I record a lot of my own stuff and like, you know, I'll do rap songs and stuff where I. I am see, and do that stuff too, because I always did it, like, when I was a producer, I always wanted to see if, like, okay, you know, if you. If. If you can flow over it and sound good over it, maybe the beat doesn't need anything extra. Right. It's. That was always hard thing as a producer. Like, when you overproduce something, you put way too much in it. And then once the vocals are on it, it's just crazy. And it's like, it just doesn't sound good. So by being able to do that, you know, you're just kind of like, okay, I'm going to hop on it and see if it sounds good and if it sounds good. Cool. Some of those songs were songs that I was working on, and I'm like, I'll let him hear him. And he's like, yo, I got to get on that. Like, what's up with that? Yeah, well, because a lot of. A lot of my best Stu stuff, like, I'll save, you know, because. Because I do it too. So I have a certain idea in mind for it, regardless if I might want him on it or not. But there was a lot of other ones. Just Step was a fun one. Yeah, you know, it was like some call and response thing that he hopped on, but it just turned out good, like. And, you know, so I'll send him the beats, and it's like a shell. And in the meantime, like, while he. He'll come over, knock three songs out in a morning, in an hour.
• 8:50
  Speaker B: Like this morning?
• 8:51
  Speaker E: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 8:52
  Speaker C: This morning you were busy.
• 8:53
  Speaker E: It's been a busy morning, busy afternoon.
• 8:56
  Speaker C: 30, you know, so we. We. We put the work in. And. And, you know, I might not be out doing as many shows as this guy or whatever, but, like, behind the scenes, you know, I'm trying to connect all the dots and, you know, I'm. I'm putting in interludes and making interlude beats and. And putting in dialogue and, you know, figuring out, okay, what's the track listen going to be like, And I'll give him back a CD three weeks later, and it'll be totally different than, you know, what it was.
• 9:24
  Speaker B: So it's been, you know, 11 years at least since, like, since, like, this started. And then it's always kind of work like that where you're going back and forth like you don't emcee much in the project or.
• 9:39
  Speaker C: No, like, and if I do it, like, I'm. I'm the studio, so I'll do it on my own time, come over and hear it and be like, oh, damn, you know, or. Or same thing with him. Like, today he. He came over and laid something down and, like, you know, like, we'll send our little text back and forth about, like, maybe what we're thinking about doing on it. But, like, when I hear him take it to, like, another level, I'm like, oh, okay. Like, this is a whole different thing that I've never heard him do, you know, and based on whatever I gave him, you know, maybe it's a little out of the box and I'm trying to challenge him, you know, but it works. It works.
• 10:14
  Speaker B: And then. So, like, how long? You know, just totally hypothetically, but how long does it take to put together an album from concept to, like, hey, it's done and ready to Release.
• 10:26
  Speaker E: I mean, it's really. Yeah, I don't really think. We don't really put, like, time restraints on our projects. It kind of. When it's ready, it's ready. So we just, you know, he'll send me. He'll send me beats. I'll get into the writing process. I'll go record with him, and then he'll, you know, put something on. It scratches on a hook or something.
• 10:56
  Speaker C: Needs a verse or something. I'll throw a verse in there.
• 10:59
  Speaker E: Yeah. But, yeah, we don't really like to put, like, time restraints on.
• 11:05
  Speaker B: So you don't, like, late. Like, you're. You're doing other things while.
• 11:08
  Speaker E: Yeah, this one we just, you know.
• 11:11
  Speaker C: He'S working on other projects. I'm working on other stuff. We got families, right?
• 11:16
  Speaker E: Right.
• 11:17
  Speaker B: I mean, that's, you know, that's a good way to do it. It's just to it like, time constraints or, like, hey, we have this that we need to get done at this time. Can up projects, like.
• 11:27
  Speaker E: Right.
• 11:27
  Speaker B: You know, we don't ever want to.
• 11:29
  Speaker E: Be rushed in creativity.
• 11:30
  Speaker C: You know, it's like, no, I'm a pretty. And he knows, like, I'm. I'm kind of a stickler. I'm a perfectionist for a lot of stuff. And, like, I'll change up the track listing a few times and. But, like. Like, I don't think I've ever had him come back and be like, nah, this ain't the way it's got to be.
• 11:48
  Speaker B: Right.
• 11:49
  Speaker C: You know, he. Like, he. And I appreciate that about him. He. He trusts my judgment and the whole thing where, you know, it's hard as a. As a producer trying to tell an emcee, yo, hey, maybe you want to do it this way or whatever. Or, you know, maybe they do another take because I know you're better than that. But, like, again, it all goes back to, you know, you're recording it once, you're releasing it once, so if you're gonna take the extra five minutes, you might as well just take that extra five minutes because you don't want to beat yourself up.
• 12:21
  Speaker B: Right, Right, right. And once every once you're done, it's done. And you can hear something, right, and be like, oh, I wish I could. But he.
• 12:28
  Speaker C: He knows what he's doing. Knocks out his stuff. You know, it's. It's. I put in as much work as he puts in, and that's what I always do with these people. If they don't put a lot of work in, then. Then I'm not Going to give you as much time.
• 12:40
  Speaker E: Gotta match the energies, man.
• 12:42
  Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, that's important, for sure. And the fact that we're in the lab together, you know, that's different. You know, it's not like we're sending beats to some guy who's like a well known artist and we're never meeting the guy. You know, like there's chemistry there or.
• 12:57
  Speaker B: Yeah, well, speaking of beats and chemistry, should we. Should we hear something?
• 13:02
  Speaker E: Yeah, sure. Let's get into it.
• 13:04
  Speaker B: What are we gonna hear?
• 13:06
  Speaker E: We got a song called Supernumerary off the new project. This is an exclusive, actually.

• 13:35
  Speaker C: You don't. You don't remember that word?
• 13:37
  Speaker B: No.
• 13:39
  Speaker C: So there's a movie. There's a movie called Crime Spree that was written by Harvey Keitel. And he says it in the movie.
• 13:45
  Speaker E: He says, yeah, okay.
• 13:47
  Speaker C: He says, yeah. He says it's supernumerary. He's like, what? He goes, what the does that mean? He goes. He means better than expected.

  Speaker B: All right, so that was super numerary bum rush. And that one is on the upcoming album that, that. There's no release date yet, but it's. It's coming sometime soon. Ish.
• 17:35
  Speaker E: Yeah, I'd say anticipate a summer release.
• 17:40
  Speaker B: And then that's how. Like, how many tracks are going to be on that one?
• 17:44
  Speaker C: There's 13 on there.
• 17:45
  Speaker B: Oh, wow.
• 17:45
  Speaker C: Tracking out at 13. It's about 45 minutes.
• 17:49
  Speaker B: Damn.
• 17:50
  Speaker C: So, yeah, and there's, you know, there's other stuff that we. We took in. You know, there's always extras. They're still hanging around, cutting room floor stuff.
• 18:02
  Speaker B: But yeah, and so that's something that, you know, you've got 13 songs, but you're probably still gonna work on essentially all of them. Or are they? Or some of them. You're like, no, that's done.
• 18:15
  Speaker C: Like, no, they're all done.
• 18:17
  Speaker B: They're all completely.
• 18:17
  Speaker C: It's complete.
• 18:18
  Speaker B: All right.
• 18:19
  Speaker C: We just listened to the final car test on the way up here and.
• 18:22
  Speaker E: On the ride up.
• 18:23
  Speaker C: Yeah, and actually speaking of that, here, I'll give you what. I brought this in. So this is. This is a1of1. Because I actually pressed this off my computer as a car test on the 17th of January, so. And the album has changed since then.
• 18:43
  Speaker B: That's the album.
• 18:45
  Speaker C: Yeah. But pretty much it's. It's not tracked out in the right track listing. The track listing is close and I think there's a different interlude or two on there. But you're the only one with that copy. With that interlude and whatever.
• 18:55
  Speaker B: I'll cherish that.
• 18:56
  Speaker E: So.
• 18:56
  Speaker C: So yeah, give it a. Give it a try.
• 18:58
  Speaker B: You know, Let me, let me ask you.
• 18:59
  Speaker C: That's considered out of promo.
• 19:01
  Speaker E: All right.
• 19:02
  Speaker B: Like, track listing, like, how much. How much time goes into how the album is going to lay it out. Like you said, interludes and stuff. Like, do you start with interludes? You want to. You like, how does that. Just the layout of it work?
• 19:19
  Speaker C: We just compile a bunch of songs and I'll go through them and as I'm mixing them or doing, you know, dropouts on the beat or whatever, I'll just, I'll add some interludes here and there, you know, and. And then usually I'll end up putting the track list together all the way at the end. You know, with this one, I kind of. Track list changed a couple times, right? Yeah.
• 19:41
  Speaker E: So we got all the songs done and that's when the fun begins. It's like, all right, now we get to check out the actual album. So we sit, we listen, and then I take the album home with me. And, you know, he's got the album for himself and we try to figure out the best order of the track listing. So.
• 20:06
  Speaker B: And do you do it kind of like matching end of one song to the beginning of another song? Flows into each other?
• 20:13
  Speaker C: Yeah, it's. I mean, it's gotta be a certain.
• 20:15
  Speaker E: Vibe to it, you know, like, you.
• 20:19
  Speaker C: Know, you don't want all the good songs.
• 20:23
  Speaker H: Well, you gotta start off strong, right?
• 20:27
  Speaker E: So.
• 20:28
  Speaker C: Well, the good songs we like, right?
• 20:29
  Speaker E: Because other songs, the heaters, right off the rip. Because if, you know, you're listening to an album firsthand, you know, you want to hear some slappers in the beginning.
• 20:41
  Speaker B: Yeah.
• 20:41
  Speaker E: I mean, the whole album is great.
• 20:43
  Speaker B: Like, there's not everybody catch the attention and then have peaks and valleys, right?
• 20:49
  Speaker E: We got songs that flow into, you know, the back end of the track listing that, you know, fit very well. Like every song kind of winding it down.
• 21:00
  Speaker C: So I think that's the most important.
• 21:02
  Speaker B: Don't like, you know, like there's no song. You like every single one of them, you know, so it's. And like, mostly the reason I ask is because we're going through that. Like, we just recorded an eight song album and it's our first one and we're like, how do we. Where do we go from here? You know, how do we know where. What's the track?
• 21:20
  Speaker C: You know what, you'll know when, you know, you kind of just move them.
• 21:23
  Speaker E: Around, spend some time listening and rearranging and, you know, see what fits best, where it fits, you know, and that's a good ide.
• 21:32
  Speaker B: That's a good idea. You know, even just, like, making different mixes and then listening to it beginning to end, and then be like, no, let me switch. Switch the whole thing.
• 21:39
  Speaker C: Yeah, that's why we still, you know, we still do the car test.
• 21:42
  Speaker E: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 21:43
  Speaker C: You know, because it's like a lot of people are going to be listening to it in the car or off their phone. I do. You know, I'll email it to myself and listen to it over my phone. And it's just like, you're gonna be doing those different mixes anyway. You gotta adjust levels. You know, you vocal or something might be too high, and you notice it later on.
• 21:59
  Speaker B: Right.
• 22:00
  Speaker C: You know that it just gives you an extra chance to say, all right, you know what, let me try and switch a couple of the songs. And it usually works. It usually works, like, with this, you know, it came together, and at the end of it, I was like, okay.
• 22:14
  Speaker E: Track order is very important. In my opinion.
• 22:17
  Speaker C: It's the hardest thing.
• 22:19
  Speaker E: And from taking a listen, everything flows from one track to the next. Everything seems to flow pretty well. And that's what you're looking for. You know what I mean?
• 22:33
  Speaker B: Yeah, I guess I just gotta start.
• 22:35
  Speaker E: The formula figured out for this one.
• 22:39
  Speaker B: Yeah, that's. That's a. Like I said, it's just an interesting way to look at it because, like, I kind of, you know, as I'm an album guy anyway, like, I'm someone that likes to listen to an album beginning to end. I don't really like the shuffle, especially not within an album. You know what I mean?
• 22:53
  Speaker E: But.
• 22:54
  Speaker C: Right. So like I said, it's important, like, if there's a song that, you know, maybe when I say it's. It's not as good of a song, it's just not as good of a song to you because maybe I've heard it a hundred times, mixed it. You know what I mean? It's, like, older to me now. And I like some of the other ones a lot better because maybe they're a little bit newer. So.
• 23:12
  Speaker B: Yeah, that is hard, you know, with the amount of time that, like, you sit with a song.
• 23:16
  Speaker C: Yeah.
• 23:17
  Speaker B: Before anybody even hears it, you know, like, you're like, here's someone hearing this song for the first time, and you're like, I've heard this song 700 times in the last six months.
• 23:28
  Speaker C: But it's also the best feeling in the world when you're pulling up next to somebody in your car or whatever, right. And you have something that you just mixed, you know, an hour ago, and like, the world doesn't even know what it is. Like, they haven't heard it.
• 23:40
  Speaker E: Right.
• 23:41
