Donwill’s “December 27th” is a somber-yet-optimistic tribute to his late father. The song, which features a dreamy beat by Don himself, is complimented by washed-out visuals that match the tone of the song, while glimpses of color, such as green grass, provide a sense of hope and relief. This contrast is echoed by Don’s refrain “you’re in a better place, it ain’t a better time”. We shot this video the same day as “Shake It Easy” and waited until today, December 27th, to unearth it. Enjoy…

Saving the best for last. Nothing Says Goodbye Like Hello is an album that I was told was “too low-fi” to release, but seeing as the project is mixed by Allison Foster and mastered by Lady Doom, it’s only right. For those thirsty for some soul samples and wicked chops, look no further… (Click the image above to download)
Smiles Of A Summer Night was such a great success thanks to the listeners, those who helped promote and do press for the project, the co-producers and the talented emcees & vocalists who contributed. I felt like it was only right to let the instrumental version of the album go as a “thank you” to those who helped make the project so special — enjoy. (Click the image above to download)
The Dance is an allegory for the (music) industry, and this project is an instrumental diss record to the industry. I’m deadly serious. The Dance finds me speaking through the samples directly to “the game” — no holds barred. (Click the image above to download)
City Lights is the sequel to The Naked City, another atmospheric trip through an experimental/ambient landscape. Keep it locked, three more projects on the way before midnight… (Click the image above to download)
Bodies started off as the soundtrack to one of our next films, but as the project progressed, we decided we wanted to compose an original score for Bodies and this turned into more of an album inspired by the film than anything resembling a soundtrack. The album is completely instrumental and also features co-production by Charles Hamilton, H2, Storm Watkins & Cashmere Brown. (Click the image above to download)
Finding this trumps any other musical discovery in 2011. Been inspired all year, and still…
Stendhal Syndrome is a psychosomatic illness that causes rapid heartbeat, dizziness, fainting, confusion and even hallucinations when an individual is exposed to art, usually when the art is particularly beautiful.
Storm Watkins is back at it again with another entry in our Stendhal Syndrome series. Stendhal Syndrome 2 basically picks up where the last installment left off, except this time around, Storm’s leaning a little bit more on the experimental side of things.
What’s next? Storm is supposedly flying to New York next month to co-produce a project with yours truly. Stay tuned. In the meantime… (Click the image above to download)

The release of Night Creatures in September 2010 was a pivotal one for MidPoint & I…the album garnered more accolades than we ever could have imagined: from individual songs being culled for other compilations to being voted one of the top ten albums of the year by Uncommon Radio to Prodigy (of Mobb Deep) rapping over “Taxi Cab” w/ Cash Bilz, a collaboration which will see the light of day very soon on Cash Bilz’s debut album. MidPoint & I thought it was only right to re-release the project for retail purposes, but not without giving you guys extra goodies to make the purchase worth your while. For only $5, you will not only receive the Night Creatures LP, but also a full color, 14-page digital booklet with artwork for each song as well as a 32-minute bonus disc with work from MidPoint & Lyle Horowitz from other available projects and unreleased material.
Please support great art and continue to allow us to make our music available for free by purchasing Night Creatures today. MidPoint & I are currently two tracks deep into the Night Creatures 2 recording process, stay tuned for more information regarding that album in the coming weeks. Thank you for your continued support. (CLICK HERE: http://nightcreatures.bandcamp.com TO PURCHASE)
