Very nice Flash MPC-style of Dante Ross’ website. Sample Triggers: 1234/QWER/ASDF/ZXCV.

From emimusicpub.com

“In the mid eighties, the progressive Dante began working for the Beastie Boys’ managers, Russell Simmons and Lyor Cohen, at their thriving management company, Rush Management. After seeing Dante in action, Simmons and Cohen opened the doors to him to become the tour manager for the illustrious Def Jam and Dope Jam tours circa 1986-1987.

In 1989, Dante joined Tommy Boy Records as an A&R rep. He promptly signed De La Soul, Queen Latifah and Digital Underground. Through working with these artists and being taught to freak a SP1200, Dante discovered that he too was capable of creating beats. He began producing several records, including the platinum hit, “Pop Goes The Weasel” for the group, Third Bass, which he founded. Dante’s efforts to make a mark in the music industry didn’t stop there. While continuing to produce, he became a player on the Elektra Records team, signing artists like Brand Nubians, Leaders of the New School (featuring a young Busta Rhymes), Old Dirty Bastard and others. Dante also remixed and produced songs for a plethora of artists like House of Pain, Cypress Hill and Slick Rick to name a few.”

I was driving and listening to Hip Hop Nation when I was surprised to hear Foreign Exchange do a live performance for XM Sirius. I’ve found new appreciation after getting to hear them live and look forward to seeing them whenever they come around. Phonte is one funny dude. They seriously rival what The Roots do live. I’ll be scouring the innanets for the full recording.
