Stones Throw 101 (2004, Stones Throw Records)

Here's the first post! I'm sitting down, researching and reading about Dimethyl Ether (DME, www.aboutdme.org, is my life at the moment), and listening to my latest zip.ca DVD, Stones Throw 101. If you haven't heard of Stones Throw, and you like funky hip-hop then you need to check this disc/DVD out for a SOLID intro.

This label headed by Peanut Butter Wolf and Egon is probably the center of the California hip-hop community for the last decade and a bit. These guys along with Madlib definitely keep the funky side of beats and rhymes living long and hard.
