Episode Four :: Making Beats With Es-Nine from 38thsquare on Vimeo.

Es-Nine is one of Colorado’s most talented producers, dj, and part of the hip-hop group Three The Hardway. He was kind enough to take us digging at one of his favorite spots and show us the process behind crafting a hip-hop gem “En Stereo”.

The fourth episode of 38thSquare is dedicated to Es-Nine.

Shout outs to Twist & Shout Records (2526 E Colfax Ave), and Manerok. Be sure to check out the track “En Stereo” on a new Manerok project coming soon.

Last month, we began shooting our second episode of 38thSquare featuring Jolt / Guerilla Garden, which should be released within the next few days.  Lazy Eyez has been busy editing and perfecting our craft, while I’ve been busy trying to schedule guests for future episodes.

When we started this project, it was our vision to create these short episodes as a “thank you” of sorts to the people within our local community who have helped us to grow, learn, and also provided us with an amazing landscape and soundtrack.  With this being said, I would like to hear who you would like featured on future episodes of 38 – whether it be rappers, djs, designers, producers, artists, entrepreneurs, truly ANYONE who supports our local scene.  Feel free to leave any suggestions within the comment area of this post, catch me in the streets, email me, tweet me, whatever.  We’re open to working with anyone and everyone.

Also, we have a comprehensive Colorado hip hop event calendar which is hosted though the site.  If you would like your event added, please send an email to Lazy.

Finally, we’d like to thank everyone who has supported us this far from rocking with us at our release party to reposting our episodes all over the internet.  If there’s anything we can do to help you, let us know.
