This is an interview we did over the phone with Northern California-based dubstep producer and DJ, Matty G, last month. Be sure to check him out live at the Midland Theater in downtown KCMO with Caspa and more on Friday, February 3rd. p.s. The first person who listens to this...
I am many things. I used to be a classically trained violinist. I'm still a poorly trained guitarist and an untrained bassist. I'm a soccer geek, I support Tottenham Hotspur. I tweet in uncontrollable tweetsplosions. I speak spanish. I love seafood, lasagna and cold pizza almost...

Besides being an awesome writer and having one of the sharpest voices here at Demencha Magazine, Nick Ah-Loe aka DJ A:42 keeps it even more real by playing all vinyl still today in 2012. As I understand it, he doesn't do a lot of DJ gigs, but how are you gonna front on five...
A feature on KCPT's "The Local Show" spotlighted Scoe, T-Blaze, Bro Mo, Leo Night Us and founder of the Hip Hop Academy, Jeremy McConnell, in an recent airing on your TV. If you missed it, check the video player above at the 8:47 mark. Also check the magazine player below...
Philly-based DJ and producer, Cosmo Baker, is a real student of music and a true master when it comes to rocking parties. Having collaborated with the likes of King Britt, ?uestlove of The Roots and tons more, Baker’s buzz stretches beyond his origin of Philadelphia to...
10. Young Fate - "All Gass" [prod. Mr. Fresh] Ladies and gentlemen, hit play and start your engines. This video player popped up in February and sees Fate spitting game over a real heat-rock from Mr. Fresh. While Young Fate verses are on my brain, his 16 on Ron Ron’s...

[pictured: Young Fierce] I've bolded the two names on this list of about 20 local names, marked as the spoken word artists I'm most looking forward to seeing at this. Young Fierce is still making music, I've come to realize after linking up with him on facebook recently. I...

With more artists in KC doing experimental, beat music derivatives this year, I thought this separate chart would only be right. I don’t think I had near as many favorite local beats to refer to when the Demencha writers put together their 2010 music picks last year. But in...
10. Bon Iver - Bon Iver I almost left this one off, but I felt like I would be remiss not to include an indie album that has received praise and attention from so many varying corners of pop culture. Singer/songwriter Justin Vernon’s home state of Wisconsin declared not...
Being asked to write this article just further proves that I’m like a movie critic when it comes to judging music. I can tell you what I hate, and exactly why I think it sucks, but when asked to come up with a top-ten list this year, I was just kind of like “uhhh..i...
