AdVenture – By Intro*Sepc (Hip Hop, Industrial, Cartoons and randomness in between)

Song: AdVenture         By:  Intro*Spec

AdVenture was created in May of 2010 at Phantom Tollbooth Records in SLC.

Over the years I have been working on “my style” whatever that is. I am sure if you were to ask any artist, no matter the medium, they would all say they are working on their style to some extent or another.

That being said, I would like to say that, more so then just working on my style, I might actually have a little bit of my style with this beat:

This beat was spawned from a couple comments made by my wife Mimi. One about the drum beat of a Lagwagon song (the exact one escapes me) that she said “has the same beat as the one you are always tapping and beat boxing”.

The other was about a sound she heard me playing when she commented “that sounds like you, it has your industrial feel to it”. She was not only referring to my robotic like tendency to be O.C.D. but also to the tribute of Trent Reznor (NIN)  that I have, on my wall, behind my desk.

These comments got me thinking, how about I throw some of my favorite things together? Some Hip Hop, Industrial and… why not… Cartoons!

A little bit of information on the last. The cartoon that is sampled in this song is called “Venture Brothers”. It is on Adult Swim (late night Cartoon Network for adults) and it is my favorite!

It has Patrick Warburton who, hands down, has the coolest voice in show business!  He has been on Rules of Engagement, Bee movie, Emperors New Groove, and many more. None of those hold a candle to the outrageousness and awesomeness that is Brock Samson (his character in Venture Brothers).

I invite you to watch a few of these videos of Brock Samson and the Venture Brothers. Once watched, I think the beat will fall into the funny, crazy category instead of the crazy, slightly homicidal… but I will take either
