DIPLO - BREW BARRYMORE - 2008

A Good Example Of Good Ol' Fashion Hip Hop! Nuff' Said!

One of the lost gems of the L.A. underground, Dred Scott. Kanye, eat your heart out!

CHI TOWNS WORST HERO

Michelle Wallace - Jazzy

Peep this booga-fire track from Michelle Wallace called "Jazzy Rhythm". One of the slumpin' tracks from my Night Shift Mix. Guaranteed to make the dance floor move. -Ren

Freeki MF

Your boy Moodymann came out with some new shit & I'm super duper feeling it. This dude may not like white people (from what I heard) but who cares. His work should be seen as some modern day Marvin Gaye or Al Green. He's mysterious & elusive & down with the whole Detroit movement (J-Dilla, Amp Fiddler n them) Maybe I'm just a freak or it's just that good of a tune. Check him in Japan with his lady doing they thing making the whole Vegas "shadow dancing" look classy.



Make sure you cop the vinyl at Turntablelab of where vinyl is avail.

N.E.R.D

I've been going through my music recently, shifting things around. I guess I'm spring cleaning in the winter. I found a lot of bad edit and remixes, basically 2008 the year of crappy distorted edits. Don't get me wrong there's a tons of good edits out there, but you know what I'm talking about. While cleaning the drive I came across this Neptunes edit which always started the party up

N.E.R.D - EVERYONE NOSE (DOUSTER REMIX)

ET's Magic Computer Bill

Kool Karlo Vs Romanowski Vs Yellow Magic Orchestra. Like many of my remixes this concept started as a live unplanned mix in a night club. Spontaneity is often the catalyst for the bulk of my remix concepts. It usually starts with quick glance at a computer screen and an instantaneous drag and drop. I try not to plan out my sets primarily to prevent myself from getting board. Coincidentally this also prevents club patrons from getting board. The tracks mixed together so well I figured a mash was in order. Mashes do take the fun out of mixing but I felt these tracks blended together so well I had to share.
