S.B.I. (Surrounded By Idiots) tracks

Larry Live (Timbo's A&R) was so kind to share 'DJ Timmy T' aka Timbaland productions from way way back...and when I say "way way back", I mean from 1990/91!!
Probably the earliest tracks we have ever heard from Timbaland. At that time, was still part of the group "S.B.I. (Surrounded By Idiots)" with Magoo, Pharrell and Larry Live.
Check them out:

Track #1 from 1991:
"Skull Caps & Strip Shirts"
by Magoo, Larry Live & Magnum (aka Pharrell)
(produced by Timbaland)
[samples "Human Nature" by Michael Jackson]
(and according to Larry Live, it's from the 1st time they ever went to a Studio)

Track #2 (from 1990):
"If Ur Freaky Baby"
by Larry Live & Magoo
(produced by Timbaland)
[samples "The Lady In My Life" by Michael Jackson]


Track #3 (from 1991):
"It's Like That"
by Larry Live, Magoo & Magnum (aka Pharrell)
(produced by Timbaland)
[samples "Remind Me" by Patrice Rushen]



BIG props to Larry Live for sharing these S.B.I. tracks with us!! :)

Malice from Clipse talks about growing up with Timbaland and more...

Greetings buzzers...

Check out this very awesome interview of Malice from the Clipse. He talks about growing up with Pharell and Timbaland, and how they go way back... I'm talkin waaaaaay back.

Check out the buzz:

So the leader of DDP, his name was Kelly Skinner, he came to me and said, “Yo, I got this dude and his beats are insane!” He was like, “Listen to this!” He played track after track of DJ Timmy Tim’s beats, and I’m going to be all the way real with you, even at that time the beats were like…I was taken by them. The beats were just consistent. It was no trademark or anything, but it was just competent beats. It was very solid.

UPDATE: So... tonight was awesome... Shock Value 2 Info

*Keanu Reeves voice*

"woah"

I'm at DJ Freestyle Steve's ustream and he goes in the studio with Tim... met some cool people... but anyways... the awesome news?

I heard about more than 2 minutes of about say 5-6 or more tracks from Shock Value 2. I DID NOT record because I was asked not to, and I'm loyal. Anyways Tim made a beat on the video, it was crazy... Then he started writing (in his head) to it live. Went into the booth and started recording. It sounded hot. Then Tim came to the camera, and sat down to chat and then began to play the tracks I mentioned. So Tim was there sitting down bouncing and acting crazy to his own music. It was awesome. And from what I heard... yall not ready for it. I mentioned that what I was hearing is greater than the stuff on BP3, and he said "of course I'm not going to give Jay my best material". He wasn't joking. I don't know how much input J-Roc had on the tracks I heard. But oh my... they were hot. And the track Tim started on in the video, which he made pretty quickly was all Tim... and it was so hot. Wow...

Anyways Steve and one of the great engineers named Julian was telling Tim quickly that I run a site based off him. It was quick. I think it is in the back of his brain now though.

The homie Wizz came in to chat (not on video, but chat room). We had a ball.

Tim also gave me a shout out more than once! "Venture... Ven-chur" That was awesome! lol

I have synesthesia, so to let yall know how his album is shaping up to sound... its a lot of blue and green. Futuristic, melody driven, tracks. There is Rave on there. So all you Techno/Rave/Dance dislikers. This album may or may not be for you.

Thank you.
