Crew proveniente dalla striscia di Gaza, nato dalla fusione di due gruppi, Damcz e Rg Band. Darg è un acronimo che sta per Da Arab Revolutionay Guys. Si tratta di un team allargato composto da Fadi Srour (Da Manager), Sami Srour (Mc), Bassam El Masry (Mc), Mohammed Antar Dargteam (Mc), Mady M Dargteam (Mc), Maroof Abu Abdo (Music producer), Ahmed Badran (Arabian Beat), Adam Qudwa (Camera Man), Slide Show. IL gruppo ha iniziato il suo viaggio nell’hip-hop nel 2004, dopo la morte di Yasser Arafat (la loro prima canzone è stata ispirata dalla vita del leader palestinese), con pochi mezza ma molta determinazione. Non sono stati in grado di registrare i loro pezzi in uno studio professionale, per cui le prime opere da loro prodotte mostrano una qualità audio molto bassa, compensata però da una grande energia. La stessa sorte hanno seguito i loro primi video. Dal 2004, i membri del Team hanno avuto un solo obiettivo: esprimere la loro vita, liberamente, giorno per giorno. Per loro la musica è una forma di resistenza. Il loro rap parla del loro paese, dell’assedio di Gaza, delle lotte interne palestinesi, ma anche di infanzia e amicizia. Il loro obiettivo è la resistenza con le parole, invece che attraverso le armi. La vita e l’attività di rapper, in quel luogo che oltreoceano viene chiamato Hamas-stan, non è per nulla semplice. Sami dice che “la scommessa di essere diversi rappresenta un mal di testa continuo”. Ma ne vale la pena, per proseguire nei loro propositi e dare al mondo un’immagine diversa della striscia di Gaza. Grazie a una forte determinazione, ricorrendo nuovamente alla produzione fatta in casa, nel 2008 sono riusciti a prodursi il loro primo album intitolato “Bel Ghorbah”. I frutti di tanto lavoro si sono visti negli ultimi due anni. Nel 2009 si sono aggiudicati il primo posto al concorso HipHopKom, organizzato dall’associazione palestinese Sabreen di cui fa parte Meghames Ayman, membro dei PR: Palestinian Rapperz e sostenuto dalla Danimarca. L’evento si è svolto a Gaza city, in un piccolo teatro nel palazzo della Mezzaluna Rossa palestinese, ed è stato trasmesso in videoconferenza nella città di Ramallah. Il Darg Team ha prevalso sui 16 gruppi finalisti e da allora è considerato il miglior gruppo rap palestinese. In seguito a questa brillante vittoria ha partecipano a varie manifestazioni e concerti organizzati dalle ong locali e internazionali che lavorano a Gaza.
Sempre nel 2009, a febbraio per la precisione, il regista svizzero Nicolas Wadimoff e la giornalista Béatrice Guelpa sono stati a Gaza per le riprese del documentario “Aisheen – Still alive”. Hanno incontrato la band ed è nata una profonda amicizia, che ha portato il regista a chiedere al Darg Team di firmare la colonna sonora del documentario. Al ritorno in Svizzera, Nicolas Wadimoff ha avvertito la senzazione di avere lasciato i suoi amici in un carcere e ha deciso di metterli in contatto con i rappers di Ginevra e Losanna per la costruzione del progetto hip-hop “Gaza incontra Ginevra”. L’iniziativa si è rivelata fruttuosa, ma più complessa del previsto. Infatti il gruppo palestinese si è dovuta confrontare con la chiusura di Gaza e ci è voluto quasi un anno per poter ottenere i documenti necessari per lasciare la Striscia. Finalmente, domenica 20 giugno 2010, il Team è riuscito a rompere il blocco di ferro ed è andato a far sentire la propria voce nella città di Calvino e
davanti a un vasto pubblico ha potuto urlare a pieni polmoni: “Falasteen hurra”, ovvero Palestina libera! La loro lotta e la loro energia sono una vera e propria lezione. Se la fortuna girerà nuovamente, il Darg team sarà invitato in Danimarca per produrre, con tutta la tecnologia disponibile, il disco che ha sempre voluto fare.

Who’s The Mack by Ice Cube – original video
taken from the Amerikkka’s Most Wanted LP, produced by The Bomb Squad
The mack is DJ Pooh
lyrics:
Straight gangsta mack
Straight gangsta mack
Straight gangsta mack
Straight gangsta mack
Who’s the mack? is it some brother in a big hat
Thinking he can get any bitch with a good rap?
Rolling in a fucked-up Lincoln
Leaning to the side So it looks like he’s sinking
Into that leopard interior
This nigga thinks every girl’s inferior
To his tongue, get a dumb bitch sprung
As she’s selling more butt
Don’t even get a cut of the money
His name is Sonny
And he know the play
And hope to od that he don’t find a runaway
That’s looking to become a star
He’ll have your ass in and out of every car
With every on and Rick, sucking every john’s dick
Come short of the money, get your ass kicked
You don’t like it but you still call him hunk
Last night the nigga put yo’ ass in the trunk
You wanna leave but Sonny started talking fast
And it make you wanna go and sell more ass
He’s getting rich, you his bitch and it’s like that
Now ask yourself
Who’s the mack?
Who’s the mack?It is that fool that wanna pump the gas
Give you a sad story and you give him cash?
He starts macking and macking and you sucking
Quick to say I’m down on my luck
And you give a dollar or a quarter and he’s on his way
Then you see his sorry ass the next day
Are you the one getting played like a sucka?
Or do you say, “Get a job, motherfucker”?
Every day, the story gets better
He’s wearing dirty pants and a funky-assed sweater
He claims he wants to get something to eat
But every day you find yourself getting beat
He gets your money and you run across the street don’t look both ways
’cause he’s in a daze
And almost get his ass hit for the crack
Now ask yourself
Who’s the mack?
Who’s the Mack?Is it that nigga in that club asking
Have you ever been in a hot tub?
I know the game so I watch it unfold
When i see the boy pinned to your earlobe
He’s talking shit and you crack a smile
When he tell you that he can go buck wild
For a girl like you and make it feel good
You know it’s drama but it sound real good
He started dragging and hopefully he can start tagging
The pussy so he can keep bragging
He say, “I’m ‘a leave baby, can you go with me?”
The pussy so he can keep bragging
You wanna do it but you feeling like a H-O-E
You grab his hand, you leave and it’s over
‘Cause the nigga ain’t nothing but a rover
Ya knew the game and you still ended up on your back
Now ask yourself
Who’s the Mack?
Macking is the game and everybody’s playing
And as long as you believe what they saying
Consider the a M.A.C.K. and with no delay
They are gonna get all the play
But when it comes to me, save the drama for your momma
It’s Ice Cube and you know that I’m a
Mack in my own right
When it comes to rhyme and rap
’cause all i do is kick facts
Unlike Iceberg Slimm
And all of them be claimin’ be P.I.M.P.
No, I’m not going out that way
I’m just a straight up N I double G A
Next time U get over on a fool
And you did the shit like real smooth
Thank Ice Cube for giving up the facts
And ask yourself
Who’s the Mack?
Straight gangsta Mack
Straight gangsta Mack
Straight gangsta Mack
Straight gangsta Mack
Yesterday i’ve received back via mail the SP-1200 from the lab in Loreto. The run/stop button was broken and it takes a while for the fixing of the part because the switch came from USA. So i’ve got to wait circa 4 months before the machine get repaired.
I’m loading samples from my floppy disks and the machine is running very well.
Days ago i discovered in the sp-1200 forums the existence of a floppy emulator that can read a CF card. The limitation of sample time and number of notes in one song/segment/pattern doesn’t change: only 10 seconds of sampling time divided in four memory chips (max 2,5 seconds per sample). But it can be useful because floppy disks are a bit hard to found in the stores today.
The sound is crazy, fat like hell. I was diggin’ for some glitch noises and founded one big drone (ground loop? i don’t know) in a sample. I added some vinyl samples and drums to make a beat…

Blowfly’s Rapp (Rapp Dirty)
http://youtu.be/zXY5AZzaa1I
lyrics:
This is Blowfly, the master of class
And I’m here to sock some soul to your ass
Guys and girls, bull dikes and faggots
Gonna rap in your ear till your ass get ragged
If the world should end I’ll be under no string
I’d blast right off with my ding-a-ling
Gonna rap to you all motherfuckers
About my best friends, those no-good truckers
Ride down the road carryin’ a load
Feelin’ more sexy than a pregnant toad
Checkin’ out the scene on my CB
‘Cause I don’t want no bears fuckin’ with me
That’s a big 10-4, good buddy, yeahhhSmokin’ weed, feelin’ fine
When suddenly I see a blue light behind
Uh, caller dickhead, check out my crack
I think I got a bear on my back
He’s on my ass and that’s no joke
But I’m gonna leave that blue light motherfucker in the smoke
10-4Said hih, ha, hih, ha, hih, ha, ha
Hih, ha, hih, ha, hih, heh, heh1-2, I said fuck you
3-4, your mammy’s a whore
5-6, check out this dick, yeahWhile I was goin’ around the corner, doin’ about 80
Lookin’ between the thighs of some big pussy lady
While checkin’ out the thighs of this fine hoe
I could tell she had a lotta ass below
But stopped up ahead for a bite to eat
I said, “Hey bitch, give me some of this fine meat”
She said, “I got it here, so come on with it
But just make sure you got enough meat to get it”
I said, “My hands are large, and my prick is bigger
Just open up your thighs while I pull my trigger, yeah”
I grabbed the bitch by the hair and then headed by the room
She had a fine body, but a face like a coon
She sat on the bed and pulled off her clothes
As the funk from her pussy started fuckin’ with my nose
Suddenly I find that it all was a waste
‘Cause there was a big prick starin’ me in the face
I kicked it with my feet and hit it with my hand
What I thought was a bitch was nothin’ but a man
And you know what I did then? Huh?I said uh, I said ah
I said uh, ah, uh, ah, ah
Uh, I said ah
I said uh, ah, uh, ah, ah
And I got the hell out of there, that’s what I didSo I grabbed my shit and got back in the truck
And I thought to myself “What the fuck”
After messin’ up my day and spoilin’ my plans
I said to myself I can still use my hand
Thought about the fine bitch I had back home
And suddenly I couldn’t help but to play with my boneYeah
While ridin’ to the state of Alabama
In a little town where I loved around
I went in this bar, said “What the heck
Motherfucker no good redneck”
Some asshole at the end of the bar
Said, “Hey, nigger boy, do you know who you are?”
I pulled out my dick and broke the bartenders glass
And I said, “All you motherfuckers can’t kick my ass”
I remember what my daddy said one night
He said, “Niggers pricks is bigger than whites”
But my black ass was in for a big surprise
‘Cause that cracker’s dick was three times my size
And of course you know, that isn’t a big 10-4
Uh, I said, “Feets, don’t y’all fail me now
Let’s get the hell outta here”He said, “Boy, I’m gon’ kick your ass till your head turn blue
There ain’t nothin’ I hate worser than a nigger or jew”
I said, “Are you sure you wanna fuck with me?
I’m a distant cousin to Muhammad Ali”
Suddenly his big prick began to shrink
He said, “Come on, boy, let’s have a drink”
Those rednecks in the corner started gettin’ up outta their seats
Carryin’ big clubs, wearin’ white sheets
He said, “Listen nigger man
I’m the grand dragon of the Ku Klux Klan”
He said, “There’s no nigger badder than me
Motherfuck you and Muhammad Ali”
I threw my drink in his face and I started to run
As I felt the lead from his shotgun
I got in my rig and covered up my face
And I drove my truck threw that motherfuckin’ place
Holes started to run with glass in their hair
And the cracker’s ass was flyin’ everywhere
The grand dragon was on the ground with his ass bloody
And I looked at him, I said, “10-4, good buddy, yeah”
I reached in the seat and grabbed a bottle of wine
And I looked in the mirror and said, “I can’t stand myself sometimes, huh”And then I said, I said uh, I said ah
I said uh, ah, uh, ah, ah
Uh, I said ah
I said uh, ah, uh, ah, ah
Uh, I said ah
I said uh, ah, uh, ahI’m the boss with the shoot off
I’m the king with the ding-a-ling
I’m the hound with the crown
I’m the dog with it all
I’m the prince with dollar sense
I’m the king with the sweet thing, yeahI said uh, I said ah
I said fee, fee, fum, fum, ooh, ooh, come, come
Ooh, ooh, ah, ah, ooh, ooh, ah, ah, ooh, ooh, ah, ahRapp dirty
