Metasploit Song

eighty — Sat, 19 Feb 2011 17:40:23 +0000

We unveiled the official Metasploit song at the Rapid7 party this year at RSA. Metasploit is one of, if not the, most widely used tools in the hacker community. I personally have been using msf since it was coded in Perl (hint: it was overhauled in Ruby years ago).

The song is called Mastering Success and Failure (msf) and is free for download in multiple formats:

Download: MP3
Download: OGG
Download: FLAC

You can find more free songs, including this one, on our non-album tracks page. As always, our albums are available from iTunes, Amazon, and Bandcamp.

We would like to thank Rapid7, the Metasploit team, and everyone at the parties in San Francisco for making this such a fun experience

The Grammar Club release ‘MC Horse Rides Again’

c64 — Sat, 08 Jan 2011 22:41:17 +0000

Incase you missed it, you should download MC Horse Rides Again. It’s totally FREE.

This is the 2nd album from The Grammar Club – a ‘virtual super group’ consisting of Shael Riley, Beefy, Ailsean, Mustin, Jon Titterington, Adam!, Ricky Henry, Ty Guenley, Dan Wilkes, and myself (c64). Check the liner notes for who did what. It’s complicated.

Shael, Ty and Beefy in particular put in a lot of effort to get this finished in time for a Christmas Day 2010 release. Say thanks by downloading it. In return, you will get some great music. Shael is one hell of a song-writer.

Be warned, the lyrics may be a little ‘vulgar’ in places. However, it’s all in the name of art. Beefy explains better than I can.

Enjoy.

Our good friend Dale Chase (@daleochase) cooked up a special remix of our song, Forever. Both c64 and I really enjoy this one, so we recommend checking it out ASAP. Various versions of it have been playing on my iPod almost constantly for the past couple months.

We’ve been busy…

This last 12 months have been an exciting time for Dual Core. Following our ‘Next Level’ album release in July 2009, we received a bunch of rave reviews, played a tonne of shows for our amazing fans, and had fun collaborating with some top-notch artists. Just incase you missed them, here are some projects you should check out.

Last month our good friend Beefy released his new album ‘With Sprinkles’. Beef approached us to work on this project a couple of years ago, and it was well worth the wait.

Incase you’re unaware, Beefy is a smile-inducing rapper with an impressive rapid fire flow – I’ve been a fan of his work for a while now. He is also a key member of The Grammar Club – you’d be unfortunate not to check their superb Bremelanotide release.

I’m proud to say I produced 5 tracks on ‘With Sprinkles’ and worked on the mastering, calling in int eighty for a full blown Dual Core collab on the gaming ditty ‘Press Start’. Our fellow producers and guest artists really complement Beefy’s style, leading to one of the most enjoyable ‘nerdcore’ releases I’ve ever heard.

Another album we’re happy to be part of is ‘Forever Famicom’, a 14-track collaboration between rapper Random and producer K-Murdock. This self-proclaimed ‘homage to Nintendo’ cleverly combines video games and classic hip hop, from the beats through to Ran’s laid-back rhymes. These two things meet in a beautiful way.

Track such as ‘Dream Master’ evoke a real sense of nostalgia, from the lovely 8 bit samples and crusty beats to Random’s bitter-sweet tales of growing up. I really can’t get enough of this song, had it on repeat for weeks. I also love ‘World Tree’ – amazing work by K-Murdock on the beat, which sits perfectly with the up-tempo rhymes and DJ cuts. Did I forget to mention, you’ll find eighty in full flow on ‘For The Gamers’, alongside Schaffer the Darklord?

The album rarely falters from beginning to end. Although the beats are based around video games, it still has that pure hip hop sound that I love. Production is accomplished and subject matter is varied – no forced nerdcore geekiness here. Great stuff.

In April this year, the renowned MC Frontalot released his latest album ‘Zero Day’. Featuring polished production and Front’s unique quirky rhymes, the album’s title track plays host to a tech-heavy guest verse by our very own int eighty, alongside spaceship rap superstar ytcracker. As well as the musical side, I’m a big fan of what I believe is the greatest hidden track treasure trail in history.

Finally, you can find eighty working his lyrical magic on ‘WordPress’, a song with laid-back rapper / producer extraordinaire Dale Chase. The two flow back-to-back over a jealousy-inducing beat, expertly crafted by Dale himself. I also encourage you to check the many other tracks available on Dale’s site.

Enjoy.

MC Frontalot’s Zero Day

eighty — Tue, 06 Apr 2010 15:26:37 +0000

MC Frontalot has a new album out: Zero Day. That said, it should be purchased immediately. Also worth noting is that we are featured on the first track. Did I mention, the first track is the title track, Zero Day? How cool is that? If you do discrete math, you could probably find a number; but for the rest of us using continuous functions, I would say the value approaches infinity. To make it cooler, ytcracker is also on the track. There is no number in discrete math for how cool that is. In conclusion, go check out Frontalot’s new album, Zero Day. On a scale from 1 to cool, it’s definitely not a 1.
