Producer/DJ stud, Leonard DStroy, and heralded drummmer, Brandon Draper, are set to make some noise on Saturday night at the KC Academy in the Waldo area of Kansas City, MO. The Grassroots Concert Series at Kansas City Academy has become a real treat. A far cry from the...
Kansas City's heralded DJ/producer/singer, Miles Bonny, recently dropped a project with NYC beat monster, B.Lewis. On this project, Miles is doing vocals over some of Lewis' original productions. While I don't necessarily think that Miles' voice and the electro-soul beats...
Last night I trekked out to two different hip hop shows in Kansas City. I knew they would be very different from one another, but I don't think the differences really struck me with such authority until I just recently sat down to write this. The Kansas City Academy at 79th...

If you're just another person in KC trying to make a "documentary" on local music/hip hop and you're not at this show, you might want to reconsider your mission statement, or just quit entirely. I believe the picture above was shot by one Jeremy McConnell (Editor of Flavor...

A tight-knit association of KC-based music icons, singer/producer Miles Bonny, singer/producer Reggie B, DJ/producer Joc Max and drummer/producer Brandon Draper will be putting on what we fully expect to be an outright clinic at the Kansas City Academy on Friday, March 30. ...
[pictured: B. Lewis] Have you ever run into some music online or live that absolutely captivated you from the jump? I just had one of those jaw-dropper moments about 20 minutes ago when KC's Miles Bonny posted a new track with his vocals over a B. Lewis beat. I wasn't...
![D/L: Miles Bonny & Stik Figa – “Headlines” [RMX]](http://demencha.com/wp-content/themes/widezine/thumb.php?src=http://demencha.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/miles-EDIT.gif&w=200&h=200&zc=1&q=80&bid=1)
[pictured: Miles Bonny] Miles and Stik add some passion and consciousness to Drake's "Headlines" beat. I've been a big fan of Miles' cover/remix work over the past few years. Beyond that, I think that he and Stik Figa are a great tandem. Miles Bonny HEADLINES REMIX...

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...
