This weekend I went to a BBQ….I’m sure 90% of you did the same thing…But at this particular BBQ my friend, Quincy from Uncle Jesse played a bunch of Dam Funk…and it provided the perfect backdrop for an evening of drinking canned beer, eating way too much, and having a bunch of laughs. Anyway, this [...]
Big thanks to DJ Foday from Brown Rice Collective for inviting myself, along with Douglas Masters and DJ DustOne from Dr. Birthday down to his weekly Tuesday night party at DC’s Science Club. Foday dropped some soulful shit on the surprisingly busy evening crowd, DustOne killed it with some crazy disco breaks…and well…I think I [...]
Its the middle of the night here in Baltimore, and what better time for some beats. Beats that will no doubt smash the shit out of your face. This one is from Dylan Rhymes. He has this LCD Soundsystemesque vocal laid over some vicious sounds. Not a long, epic track by any means…more of a [...]
DJ Gero has put out a nice banger of a track on his latest compilation “Poyz Who Like Pirlz,” and while I have yet to understand what a “Poy” or a “Pirl” is, the music is good and speaks over the cutesy terminology. My favorite French club producers, Kazey and Bulldog have gotten a hold [...]
Steve Starks and Nacey, of Nouveau Riche hit me up with there new EP the other day, and I thought it might be nice to let you guys hear what they’ve been up to. My personal favorite is Nacey’s “Money on the Dressa”…but download the whole thing, cause all the tracks are worth giving a [...]
Just got this great Major Lazer remix from Nacey of the Nouveau Riche crew out of DC. Rumor has it that they throw some of the illist parties in the District. He comes on full force with this one. Great fucking beat on top of an already dope track. Keep your eyes on this dude.Major [...]
I have a strange affinity for stuff coming out of Arizona….Mostly stuff that’s smuggled across the border in dimly lit tunnels….but this time (for the sake of head and body) it’s more musically oriented. This phenomena might have to do with the fact that my Mom lives there, (she’s really very kick ass) and that [...]
I woke up this morning and realized that I haven’t posted up a good pop tune in quite some time. I know pop music is all over the radio, strategically placed throughout television series, dropped over the celebrity voices on those fancy car commercials, but every once in a while I’m a sucker for one. [...]
Our buddy Don Diablo has dropped another electro burner on us to share with you guys this rainy Sunday afternoon. I’ve been hold up in the basement most of the weekend working on some new tracks for a State/Cool Catz collaboration that should be finished up in the next month or so, and this track [...]
Well if your like everybody else that I know, then you go absolutely bonkers when you hear a well done new mash-up….and I know that there are probably sixty-thousand terrible ones floating around out there, but when you get a good one……well…..it’s really nice. Well, during my travels this past week I met a friend-of-a-friend, [...]
Sorry for the little break there, but I was partying in desert all last weekend, and honestly didn’t have three minutes to spare to write a blog post. For those who missed it, Coachella once again delivered an excellent party, and a great way to stamp out a few of those extra brain cells. Highlights [...]
I’m still out in Cali, and I made it up to Hollywood last night to check out the Rye Rye show at Cinespace…..which was dope. It was a really short set, but the energy and the venue were great, plus they played a nice cover of Paper Planes..the backup dancers were killing it….sweaty as fuck…..I [...]
I’ve got some more fun stuff for you guys from our friends down in DC. This one is a remix of a Deleted Scenes track from AutoRock. My boy Micah Vellian mixed and mastered the track so you know it will……..(I know it’s so fucking cliche)………….melt your face. Deleted Scenes – Ithaca (AutoRock Remix) (ZS)
What’s a Tuesday morning without some fucking Blatimore Club. So if your having a slow start, drop this one on from the Doo-Dew Kidz….Who in case you have no idea, are Booman, Jimmy Jones, and KW Griff. This is real deal…. these guys have been doing this for a long time. Doo-Dew Kidz – Funhouse [...]
I’ve been getting lots of really good music lately, and it’s time to stop hoarding all of it in my inbox. Claire Hux sent this great rework of that DJ Class track from last years Fully Fitted EP. The fellas are throwing a monthly party here in bmore at the Wind Up Space this Thursday, [...]
I meant to post this the other day, but then my internet went out again, and I got really busy with other shit, and so this fell through the cracks. Well…I woke up extra early today, (which is weird because I drank a bunch of beers last night) so instead of eating a healthy breakfast, [...]
I’m down with the Don. He hooked it up with a couple of tracks tonight, and I am quite happy that he did. I’d go into more depth, but fuck it, just listen, go ape-shit, and be stoked that this shit is free. Fuck you recession……….sorry no zshare kids….shit’s been acting up lately……. Heartache feat. [...]
Just got word of this show tonight for all you people up in NYC. Maggie Horn, Scottie B, and Jubilee will be rocking the walls tonight at Sutra. So if you have no plans..(and who does on a Wednesday?) Go check them out. You can also catch Maggie being interviewed live on WPUB.org at 9PM. [...]
This song floored me. Before I pressed the play button on this one I was a little skeptical because the track clocks in at over 10 minutes, and it’s really hard for a song to keep my attention for that long. This one did that and much more. I listen to a lot of music, [...]
I just woke up and I have to hustle to get ready for work. I’ll have some new stuff up later in the day. (I took the weekend off from the blog…..cause, well……..that’s just what happened.) Here’s a video from Blaqstarr for your morning commute.
