Here's the latest on all things Lucid...this Saturday,yes THIS Saturday we will be releasing a single off the upcoming "Rockit Science" album called "All Day All Night"...available on itunes, amazon, napster and our bandcamp page....it's only 99 cents so go ahead and cop that!...there's a snippet of the track on our fb and soundcloud pages to help you decide on weather or not its worth spending that 99 cents...although the answer to that is "yes,it's worth it"...If you like our past releases this should be right up your alley...did I mention it's only 99 cents?...shout out to the homie Tek Nalo G for the fresh artwork...he also produced a dope track for Marcus called "Been At It For Awhile" available for free download...
Speaking of our new single(which is only 99 cents by the way),here's your chance to win a FREE copy ( that's less than 99 cents)...we're giving away 5 free downloads to the first 5 people who can answer this really really difficult LM trivia question...
true or false: the 3 things Lucid Music hates the most in this world are tattoos,kicks and records
The first 5 people to answer that correctly get the single for free! just leave your answer on our fb page along with your email address and we'll get it out to you...and if you miss out on your chance to get it for free,don't fret...I don't know if I said this already but it's only 99 cents!...this time around we're releasing the new ish under our own label,Nat Turner records...why did we name it Nat Turner?...have you noticed how the music industry works?...nuff said...
Also,be on the lookout for a brand new magazine called Underneath...they will be doing an interview and review on us coming soon...It's a first for us and we're hella excited about it...it will be available in a digital format as well as a physical copy( check your local barnes and noble)...more details about that tba...
And finally,Lucid Music Dj Dr Jones aka Docjeezy will be a featured guest on Dj Rob Swifts scion radio show "Dope On Plastic"...look for him to be dropping a special mix of funk,breaks,soul and hiphop...you already know how the Doctor gets down so you don't want to miss that and Pittsburgh,if you don't know here's your chance to find out...here's the link

I don't speak walrus
what up y'all,it's time for another installment of what I've been told is hands down the greatest/most exciting blog in the universe...so cancel your plans,strap yourselves in and enjoy what will probably be the highlight of the night..are you ready? Lets go!!!!
OK,so recording has finally started for the new album...in the past we used to record right after we finished a track but this time around we decided to write everything first,then record...although I can't remember why but anyway,it all worked out because while writing,we were able to fulfill the first part of a short term goal of ours...purchasing new gear to step up our live performances...we copped a new laptop and serato...personally when I first heard about serato I wasn't too impressed by it...in fact I was a bit anti serato...the few times I had seen it in action were by dj's who either didn't have the right set up to power it(causing it to crash mid performance)or just weren't utilizing it in a creative way...we got our first chance to use it during a show in Ohio a few months back and it totally changed my opinion of it...we were able to do things we previously couldn't accomplish and overall it just made performing a hell of alot smoother...
So we saved our green guys and slowly bought our set up piece by piece...a demonstration at Docjeezys crib showed us the investment was well worth it...not only would we have more control over our sound and song transitions,but it would also change the way we would record...so blah blah blah what I'm really trying to say is that this investment is going to make the new album as well as our live show that much better...hmmm I suppose I could have skipped all that and just said "hey we got serato and shit is alot better now"...
We gave it a test run this past Saturday at the Irish centre for an event called "Tween wave pool party" and shit got ripped despite the usual drama that goes along with performing...no p.a.,having to switch areas to perform,time slots getting pushed back,some assclown "dj" starting shit with Dr Jones mid set,the pigs showing up,etc...anyway,the crowd was great and we did our thang...shout out to the fourth LM member Cash for showing up to support and hold things down!
Speaking of the Doctor,here's some huge news...in December he'll be a guest on Rob Swift's radio show...expect Docjeezy to be cutting it up fresh as always...more details on that tba...
Much love to catchyhiphop.com for posting up the "Showtime" video...we're still planning on dropping a single off the new joint too...just deciding exactly what it will be...
I think that's about it...so until next time,PEACE!!!!

I'm running out of ideas for blog titles
what up kids? Due to my laptop suffering from a totally non porn related virus,I've been unable to get online but I'm back in effect so lets get to the ultra exciting adventure filled update of all things Lucid...
Besides saving blind orphans from burning buildings and rescuing puppies,we've just been laying low trying to finish this damn album.We're close to wrapping up the writing part...I think we got about 2 or 3 more songs to knock out before we start recording,which shouldn't take long.Oh yeah,I guess we'll have to decide on what to name these songs at some point.We have an idea about releasing one of these as of yet unnamed joints for a single which should be forthcoming around August or September and since we've recently acquired a video camera hopefully there will be a video to go along with it.Not sure if we'll be dropping the new ish via bombhiphop.com or our own little label( aha!! that's right,I said it!! more info tba) but regardless,it will be available on itunes and in Marcus's backpack when you see us.
We have reached the halfway point in copping some new equipment to step our live show up so until then,we're taking a break from performing but we do have a few obligations we are hella excited to fulfill in the meantime.August 6th@the Irish Centre for an event called Tween Wave( settle down,the name is from a south park episode).Thanks to everybody who came out to Where its at pt 2 which was also at the Irish Centre on April 16Th.The rave crowd seemed to dig us and that was easily our biggest audience so far.Theres some footage floating around youtube and on our fb page...this time around,Tween Wave will be a pool party so yeah,its going to be a good time.more details tba...also September 10Th we'll be getting down and sharing the stage with the legendary Dj Qbert ( aw yeah!!).Definitely more details tba announced about that one! Stay tuned...
Also, Dr.Jones aka docjeezy will be dropping an instrumental ep for the price of on the house soon.You know how he gets down production wise so expect some heat...different from what he's known for as far as LM style of production but equally as ill.That's right,He steps outside the box...suckas take notes...actually all you dilla biting ass motherfuckers take notes.And just when you thought it was safe to half ass the skills and call yourself a Dj,Docjeezy will also be a contributing editor on Rob Swifts' upcoming website as well as hosting his own show on Skratcher.ca..yep.I'll give you the lowdown about all that in the very near future when I get more info myself...
I think that's about it for now...big ups to realhiphopforever.com for holding us down and providing all the bboys and bgirls with the real ish.Big ups to the crew at Rap Revivial Radio ( raprevival.com )for the Lucid Music rotation and be sure to check out their show.They support indie hiphop to the fullest!
PEACE!!

Signature Sound
that's right yall, fresh out the lab..get your free download on and enjoy.
Signature Sound by LucidMusic
Upcoming shows and projects
" Do.Or do not.There is no try."
Wise words from my main man Yoda...If only Luke had listened and finished his training,dammit...anyway,what up y'all? So April 2ND at Gooski's we got down and opened for our friends Triangle & Rhino at their album release and honestly,it couldn't have gone any better...it was a great night and we got to see a handful of old friends we hadn't seen in awhile....for me it was one of those nights that i wished would never end...eventually it did but not before Gooski's backroom got ripped if I do say so myself...everybody performing pulled out some heat and kept a full crowd entertained...when we do a pgh show,this is how we like it done...low key spot,old friends,new faces and a night of comrades sharing the stage...rj myato set it off with a 40 second noise set then it was our turn...last time at gooskis' it was just myself and Marcus performing with T&R but this time all 3 Lucid Mechanics were in the house...we pulled out some new unheard stuff and had no tech problems(always a plus)... next up was White Guilt,a collective made up of a few bands such as Dreadnots,Dirty Faces and Rob blow...Eric and Terry killed it as usual...then T&R got down and I'm glad they pulled out "roller skating bear", a lucid music favorite and not just because there's a dope break towards the songs end that we want to sample...those guys are OG's of the local scene and they always put on a good show...there was another band that got added to the bill last minute and played ( sorry I can't remember the name) but we broke out before they closed the night but overall,we had a good time...got footage,rocked the spot,Wendy actually talked to me( not a big deal but it seemed so at the time...then again I just quoted the empire strikes back so that should give you some insight on what constitutes a"big deal" to me)...thanks to everybody who came through and to Lexso and Matt for including us..
Next show in pgh is April 16TH THIS SATURDAY..."Where its at 2" at the Irish centre...featuring us,Blockhead,Ill-esha,Digital,Powerhouse,Peter lee and a grip of others...yep,that's right,Lucid Music will be at a rave...I'm really looking forward to this one!...also May 28Th we'll be performing with Stillborn Identity ( finally!)we were supposed to get down with him awhile back and a few shows fell through but it looks like its on now.....more details as we get em...
For the past couple months we have been posting about an upcoming collab between us and producer nomak...well unfortunately it won't be happening...I was going to get into all the details about how he approached us and we went out of our way only to have him go back on his word and play us but you know what?
who cares?
not us...so we remixed the track with our own "signature sound" (haha get it?..probably not but trust me,that's funny) and even though the nomak version was dope,this version is ten times better and we'll be giving it away for FREE very soon...industry rule # 4080...
Dr Jones aka Docjeezy has a new instrumental ep coming soon...strictly head nod heat...no title yet but he'll be giving it away for the price of on the house..look for that soon as well as another surprise from him...a pretty big one actually...and look for him April 23th @ The Gallery Acoustic Moose...more details when we get em...
OK,I think that's it...peace!
