This week on “Pitch Control“, we’re welcoming in one of the cornerstones of the progressive hip-hop movement on XM, but as well an artist in his own right, producer K-Murdock aka Doc from XM’s “Subsoniq”. Whether he’s crafting production as an audio animator at XM or producing for his group Panacea, K-Murdock is a producer who digs deep for his sounds and this week he’s in the driver seat on “Pitch Control” to showcase some of his recent favorites. Focusing mostly on compositional and instrumental progressive hip-hop, you’ll hear artists like Nicolay, Nujabes, Damu, Fat Jon, DJ Spinna and Jackson Conti, among others. Tune in to “Pitch Control” this week for a ride through the (digital) crates of one of XM’s and one of today’s leading soundsmiths, K-Murdock

XMU channel 43 (Direct TV 831)

This week, Pitch Control welcomes the ever-consistent sample-based producer Joe Beats to the show.  Widely recognized for the signature sound first heard nearly a decade ago as one half of the Non-Prophets duo, recent years have seen Joe’s focus shift to a number of solo releases.  In a time of global musical influence when your favorite artist switches style on a whim, this Providence, Rhode Island native takes it all in stride and keeps crafting the sample-laced gems that have magnetized ears for years.  Tune in to Pitch Control this week as Joe Beats reflects back and shines some light on his past works and influences.
