EL TIGRE: 'Hometown' hero, MC & producer Rey Resurreccion drops a new album of instrumentals Friday.

So far there is exactly one great San Jose anthem of the new millennium: “The Hometown” by Rey Resurreccion. Spitting on top of a heartstring-tugging banda beat from DJ Cutso, Rey makes the case for all the golden grains of the Valley of the Heart’s Delight: “Barbeques, fairgrounds, go karts, taquerias / pho noodle, Music in the Park, and fly senoritas.” On new album Tiger’s Eye, Rey gets to flex his considerable chops as a producer, dropping ten instrumentals inspired by the hypnotic stone, “said to keep you focused, grounded, and centered, even when surrounded by chaos.”
