As I send off my final questions for Evol Intent, I thought it might be appropriate to post this mix from a close friend of theirs, Kill the Noise. I missed this mix from Jake that he dropped earlier this summer. I’m not totally shocked that I missed it considering what I was doing. This mix takes me back to June and July. Tons of jams from this summer. Anyway, It’s a great mix that I hope he follows up soon.
Watch for the EI interview soon! Oh, and I am so jealous of everyone that was able to attend Fall Massive last night.
Sweedish DJ Boj Lucki of the MIR Crew dropped his latest mix last month featuring a blend of jungle and dubstep. The kid has great taste when it comes to jumpup and amen oriented drum-n-bass, but his exclusive dubstep dubplates are ridiculous. This cat is definitely someone to watch in the future. If you aren’t into classic dub reggae and ragga tunes, this mix probably isn’t for you. If you are … then it’s a fucking killer.
Earlier this month Designer Drugs dropped their sixth installment of electro awesomeness known as the Datamix series. Amidst all of the other stuff they were doing, I somehow missed this. However, due to all of the coverage they have received here lately, you really shouldn’t need to be told anything else other than, “DOWNLOAD AND JAM LOUDLY!”
One of the first WYHIs on MHC was a hot mess Amy Winehouse, and I got a fairly unanimous “no” as a response. Well, Amy is back, sober, and rocking a new set of breast implants, so I thought I’d pose the question again. Has she changed enough to make you reconsider having sex w/ her? She still kinda looks weird. Fuck it. She still looks crazy, and if you notice the hand at her elbow, it would appear that she still needs a tard handler. Could you look past all of that to play w/ her new bewbies?
The Louisville slugger dropped her November promo mix ADSR sometime last week. Although techno and house aren’t my preferred cup of tea, but I always have to give credit where it’s due. This thing is flawlessly blended together. More important that this mix is Marea’s party on December 5 in Loui-tucky entitled Trust Us 2. Having attended her parties for the past several years … expect a grimey night of dope music and like minded party people. Email Lady4[] for more info!
Recently an idiot Texan decided that it would be a good idea to go slang some grass door-to-door. Guy was just walking down the street w/ 3 ounces of herb, a set of scales, and some baggies trying to serve people. Well he did until he was arrested after knocking on a cop’s door and trying to serve the cop. Lord knows we all make some mistakes as kids. I mean … I definitely opened the door for some individuals I shouldn’t have, but who the fuck goes door-to-door?
Gridlok made his names as one of the menaces behind Violence Recordings and completely busted out on his own w/ the formation of his label P51. Shit, last year he was even nominated for a Grammy due to his work w/ AK-1200 on Autopsy. Unbeknownst to me due to my move, Gridlok gave MediaContender a mixed preview of his upcoming album Subsessions. Featuring his trademark haunting basslines and mechanical drums, Subsessions stands ready to be one of the best DnB albums of the year. Make sure to grab it when it drops!
This is a fairly huge moment for MHC. The folks behind the Dubstep LA project have decided to exclusively debut the next single from the mixtape Dyme Def and Starkey’s “I Know” right here. How fucking dope is that? You should already know this Seattle/Philly collab from Plastician’s mix, but this is the unmixed version featuring the same dope verses from the guys of Dyme Def and the same bouncy beat Slit Jockey Records co-owner Starkey.
Kid Delicious aka Slater Hogan has been hosting a new weekly at Blu Lounge in Indianapolis for about the past month. In order to give new comers a taste of what they might Thirst for later, KD busted out this mix of classic jams and fresh mashups. You know me … I can never front on someone that will throw both Jay-Z’s “Roc Boys” and “Informer” by Snow in the first 10 minutes of a mix. Grab the mix and make sure to hit up Blu in Indy on Fridays to satisfy your Thirst.
I meant to post this last week, but moving into a new crib took precedence. Last week the infamous Stewbot kicked me his mashup of Timbaland ft Soshy – The Morning After Dark (Nelly Furtado Remix) vs Ying Yang Twins – Drop. A departure from Tyler’s typical house stylings, his blend of the two hip-hop tracks is absolutely perfect for packed dancefloors. This is a must have for DJs.
Tonight Eden and Disco are throwing Trancegiving @ Talbott Street in Indianapolis featuring world renowned DJs Above and Beyond. Make sure you show up and keep your ticket. Your ticket stub will get you into Evol Intent tomorrow night @ the Mel for presale price. As a bit of a bonus, I have a mix from A&B for you to sample!
OMFG … this made my fucking month. As one of their last tunes, U-N-I brought out Curt@ins and Theo to perform Drive By, their anthem from the infamous Dubstep LA mixtape. Considering this has been one of my jams for the past 2 months, I was blow away watching this shit live. Warren G, Kidz in the Hall, and Grey Granite all had dope sets, but U-N-I came with that shit. Sorry the sound is kinda wack, but I got what I could … courtesy of Miss Jungle Bitter Sweet.
Watch for an interview w/ U-N-I from MHC and Heavy Gun in the next few days.
Video of Warren G performing Regulate w/out sound (fuckin’ iPhone) below the cut.
When I first saw shorty, I dismissed her as not having ample measurements, but then I saw the pictures above. Good lord, she fills out a pair of jeans nicely. With a 5′1″ frame and a 36-26-44 body, Yalon is quite curvy for her size. Don’t hate, just masturbate.
As soon as I heard about this project, I got hyped. Fuck … I mean … it’s Wu-Tang Clan and dubstep. What’s not to love? Yea … then I heard the first two singles. From that point, I knew I was gonna be disappointed. The singles were poorly executed and probably some of the worst tracks on the project. Then I got the whole album the other day. At first I thought it was complete garbage. It’s just a bunch of Wu-Tang affiliate dubstep remixes. However, I must admit that a few of the tracks have grown on me.
Normally I would drop the whole release, but I don’t feel like getting a c&d today, so I am just gonna post a couple of tracks that weren’t featured as singles. You can decide if you want to take the time to find the rest of the album.
Local hero Mr. Kinetik dropped this on his blog the other day as the single for his new project the Ghost of Mr. Kinetik, and I have been meaning to post it since then. Nothing about this track is outstanding except how tight Kinetik’s lyrical game has become. The first time I ever caught him shine like this was at the final night of Saturday Night Live @ Front Page at the end of the summer. Hopefully his prowess on the mic continues to improve. Dude could be a beast for Indy.
Look at this … another tack off of the Clipse’s album Till the Casket Drops that I actually like … oh wait, and it was produced by the Neptunes. I am starting to believe that Pharrell is the only person that can get a decent performance out of these two. No matter, I can’t wait for this album to drop. It’ll hopefully be a monster.
It’s been another one of those weeks where it seems like everyone is dropping some sort of project. One of my favorite DJs Jayvon just released a new mixtape full of original edits and flawless mixing. Filled with remixes by Kill the Noise and B. Rich along w/ originals by Designer Drugs, the mix is definitely an exercise in bass. When I first started listening to electronic music a decade and a half ago, I never would have expect the merger of sounds that’s happening in the US. I hope this shit keeps moving forward!
Rise of the Footsoldier is one of the most compelling football (soccer) hooligan movies since Gary Oldman’s appearance in the Firm. The flick follows Carlton Leach’s rise from typical hooligan to hired muscle to organized criminal to retirement. Yep thats right folks, this is based on a true story that eventually culminates in the famous Rettendon murders of 1995. As a kid that grew up in the American rave scene, it was quite interesting to watch how involved gangsters became in British club culture. I’m not so sure I would have done some of the shit I did knowing these guys ran the show.
