Secondhand Sureshots is a filmed experiment in creative sound recycling. Dublab directors Bryan “Morpho” Younce & Mark “frosty” McNeill sent beatmakers Daedelus, Nobody, J.Rocc and Ras G on safari into L.A. thrift stores with orders to make new music out of five finds while the cameras filmed the whole process. The result is a mini-documentary about putting new life into old vinyl.  Over 2 hours of footage, music & bonus material. Stonesthrow

Paul Pre is on a killin’ spree. Last week he dropped a mix with Musique Large, this week he’s dropping this Moovmnt mix hosted by us and who knows what he’s dropping next week. Paul describes this mix as a relaxed mix for the autumn mood. Nice selection and hop you all enjoy this one. Tracklist after the jump..and best believe it’s full of laid back electronic music. You can also check out this mix on our Mixcloud.

When SirOJ, FS Green, Full Crate we’re in Birmingham last summer they had to make some beats to play at the Louis Den Beat Cypher. The first beat OJ played was received as you can see here! After a few requests for the mp3 it’s now free for download. Stay tuned for the ‘Behind Closed Doors vol.2‘ including interviews with SirOJ and FS Green out in December! Photo credit: Patrick Ebu-Mordi.

SirOJ for Slumgullion Music – One for Brum

One of our favorite artists from L.A. – Pac Div – just dropped a dope 2-for-1 video off the “Church League Champions” mixtape. Directed and produced by Carey Williams & Chris Watkins.

We’ve been meaning to post this one for while, but never got around to it. Devonwho was tweeting about this cat Weslee a while back and we checked out his “The Other Sides Vol. 3” release full of dope beat snippets. Short, but full of potential we were left hungering for more. Luckily we found “The Other Sides Vol. 2” as well and we wouldn’t be Moovmnt now if we didn’t share these two gems with you guys.

Weslee Connerzs currently resides in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota. Primarily he does folk ballads and plays the midi flute, but whenever he’s not doin that he makes beats. The Other Sides volumes was an experimental attempt to expand his sound and the overall feedback he gets, will determine whether or not he’ll out more of this type of material. A true diamond in the ruff if you ask us and definitely able to develop himself a lot more if he decides to keep on doing beats.

Just over a week ago we dropped some sick new Dorian Concept music on ya’ll and Mar went nuts when he heard “Bipolar Friendship”.
