Appendix E-J

Stones Throw is a mighty, mighty fine record label. At any time, beats from several Stones Throw artists may start to emanate from the speakers of Everyday Joe’s…including the beats of one Oh No.

Some time ago I was reading an article about Intelligentsia’s Venice Beach opening party DJ’d by Stones Throw founder Peanut Butter Wolf. The article included a mention of a Stones Throw Blend by Intelligentsia. I managed to get ahold of some and it was delicious, especially with James Pants coming through my headphones.

On Stones Throw’s Twitter recently, I was delighted and intrigued by this:

Here’s how we do it … Oh No’s Ethiopium (beats) http://is.gd/3eIkx & Stones Throw’s Ethiopium (coffee) http://is.gd/3eIlU

Stone’s Throw will be embarking on a hip-hop first: a dual album and coffee release. The album is Ethiopium by Oh No- the upcoming release inspired-by and sampled-from rare 60s and 70s Ethiopian funk, jazz, folk, soul and psychedelic rock. The coffee is Ethiopium by Intelligentsia- a Yirgacheffe that will surely be tasty. Time for hip-hoppers to buy a Chemex to compliment their vinyl collection. Hipsters have PBR, beat-makers now have Intelligentsia.
