(AllHipHop News) Award-winning producer Metro Boomin is set to move into the executive realm.
During an interview with GQ, the man born Leland Wayne spoke about starting a new company.
“I’m heavily influenced by a lot of people like Dre, Pharrell, and Kanye. They’re all big time tastemakers and trendsetters, just for culture, period,” Boomin stated. “So I strive to do that as well. I’m starting my label up, so of course I’m going to keep bringing new things to the table: new artists, new sounds, and new vibes for people to love and live with.”
Last December, Metro posted about Boominati Records on his social media accounts.

Technics Set To Release A Black SL-1210GR Turntable



POSTED BY DAN WHITE of djtechtools.com
At CES, we first caught wind of the Technics SL-1200GR, a lower-cost version of the new generation of turntables. At £1,300 / $1,600, it’s still not a cheap DJ turntable. That said, a surprise over-the-weekend press release came in, announcing not only a new all-black SL-1210GR model, but also reaffirming Technics’ commitment to DJs. Keep reading for details.
The new SL-1210GR harkens back to one of the slickest models of original Technics. It makes a lot of sense to release a black variation – after all, much of the DJ gear out there is black. But aside from the color choices on this new model, all the specs are almost completely identical to the SL-1200GR that was announced at CES. It’s just a cosmetic difference.
The new SL-1200GR and black SL-1210GR are set to be available for sale in April of this year – and Technics has confirmed that the price will be roughly $1,600 in the US. It’s absolutely an expensive gear purchase – but one that’s a bit more wallet-friendly than the $4,000 reference-quality model SL-1200G/GAE.
Technics Clarifies Their Position On DJs
Many people in the DJ community bristled last month when a New York Times article came out in which Technics creative director Hiro Morishita snubbed DJs as a viable market. It was an odd choice for a brand that has had so much great natural marketing come out of the DJ community. But in this new press release for the SL-1210GR, we noticed a heavy backpedal that DJs will welcome:
“The SL-1200GR and SL-1210GR combine the best of both worlds,” says Michiko Ogawa, Director Technics at Panasonic. “We are sure both models will fulfill the expectations of Technics fans around the globe. Our objective was to extend our top range for audio enthusiasts as well as professional DJs.”

(AllHipHop News) J. Dilla Gets His Own Turntable

J. Dilla Gets His Own Turntable As Late Producer’s Birthday Approaches

(AllHipHop News) Pioneering producer J. Dilla would have turned 42 this year, had it not been for his untimely death, due to complications after a three-year battle with lupus. This year, J. Dilla born James Yancey, is being honored with his own custom “J. Dilla Turntable.” The cool looking piece of technology is an official product of the Estate of James Yancey, and is designed to be portable, but also functions as a stand alone record player. Additionally, the turntable can plug into any stereo system with an RCA jack or USB port. Music can be recorded directly into a computer, using the software package that’s included with the turntable. Along with a full range stereo speakers, Jay Dee’s turntable offers a replacement stylus, along with a 45 adapter. Take a look at the turntable below, which is already available for purchase in the United Kingdom,
