Ariana Grande, Iggy Azalea, & Vexxe: The Bootleg

So the first time I heard the song "Problem" by Ariana Grande and Iggy Azalea, I told my buddy Vexxe he had to do something with it.  And he agreed.  This is the finalized product.  Completed in under a week, a club friendly bootleg (or flip, whatever you prefer).  Emphasis on the best part of the songs, whistles, and just generally bouncy bass.  You gotta give this a listen.  And always, its free, Enjoy!

Bird Peterson can Move That Dope

If you don't know by now, I like Bird Peterson. The interesting stuff cranked out never ceases to amaze me.  This time, he took a cut at Future's "Move That Dope."  Super crispy drums, funky dubstep-y synth, and a bassline for days.  It doesn't get much better than this when it comes to a remix that stays true to the vocals.  This instrumental flip is perfect for your next house party, rager, banger, what have you.


Y'all know the drill. As always, Enjoy!

Get Vexxe'd. Champion Remix Competition for Dim Mak Recs

I met this kid about a month ago.  As much as he'd probably hate that I would label him as a budding young artist, he was producing some amazing quality stuff.  Just turned 18 and he has produced some damn impressive work thus far.  After helping him along with a few marketing ideas and a rebranding effort, he decided to go with Vexxe.

Now, as Vexxe, his first move is entering into a remix competition for Clockwork's "Champion" in hopes to get a release on DIM MAK records.  Check his submission out here:



While I could talk about Vexxe for days, all you need to know is that this is only one of many songs he is currently working on.  If you like it, feel free to head over to WAVO and give it a vote: Vexxe Champion Remix Competition Release.

Also, if you are looking for more work from him, stay tuned to his Soundcloud and Facebook pages.  Additionally, check out his remix of the Neighbourhood's "Let It Go" or many of his original productions.  And trust me, keep the eyes peeled because he's got a lot up his sleeve for this summer.



And as always, Enjoy!

Shooter McNappin. He's nappin' but don't sleep on him.

So there's this guy I've been following for awhile now.  He produces some of the craziest tracks, including remixes and bootlegs.  His latest is a combo of PTAF's Boss Ass Bitch, Nicki Minaj's Hook, Brillz's Rvtchet Bitch (original mix) and Milo & Otis' remix of Rvtchet Bitch. Needless to say, each is dancefloor killer, but together they are a massive rave weapon.  Taking the best parts of Boss Ass Bitch and sampling them between the drops of Rvtchet Bitch & the Milo & Otis flip, Shooter McNappin creates a new level banger.

Don't believe me? Check it here:



If you like this check out his page, his side project Cloud11 and his duo project with Buzz TrillingtonAs always, twerk it out and Enjoy!

Oh My Murda. DJ Sliink and DJ Fresh Direct Murdered Murder

Ok, so I'm definitely doing a back to back DJ Sliink post but this time he's back with DJ Fresh Direct with a "Welcome To Jamrock" sample.  Fire.



This is one of those posts where I can't do the song justice.  So just listen.  And download.  As always, Enjoy!

DJ Sliink slays 'em with Kanye's Blood On The Leaves Remix

I haven't hit the download button that hard in a long time.  Kanye West released Yeezus over the summer setting a new standard for experimental hip-hop with artists like Hudson Mohawke & THE Daft Punk producing a majority of the album.

One that stood out was Blood On The Leaves produced by Hudson Mohawke, half of trap super group TNGHT.  The sample, the horns, the everything just made an amazing track.

Then everyone started remixing joints like New Slaves and Black Skinhead.  Notable remixes are Brenmar's New Slaves Club Edit, DJ Snake's New Slaves Remix, and Alex Young & Royal's Remix of Black Skinhead.

And in the last 24 hours, #JerseyClubKing DJ Sliink released a massive Jersey Club Remix of Blood On The Leaves.  Although the original is in and of itself an amazing track, DJ Sliink did his thing, and damn, did he do it right.  Check it out here:

Cashmere Cat does, I think. I don't particularly.

So there's this singer called Miguel.  You've probably heard of him.  Quickie.  Sure Thing. Adorn? Okay, you get the picture.

So there's this song called Do You... and its pretty awesome.  A nice acoustic Miguel joint.

Cashmere Cat then decided to make one of the illest remixes in the game right now.  Normally I'm like eh, this remix is pretty good.  Naw, screw that noise.  Flosstradamus was like "ay, do y'all like drugs?" and I was like HYFR I DO!  You gotta listen to this song just to understand what I mean.

And as always, Enjoy!

I Heard Nero Want's This Shit Forever Man

Nero is quite generous on their soundcloud.  If you ever liked Drake's "Forever (Remix) ft. Eminem, Kanye West & Lil Wayne, check this one out.  Nero slaps some wobble on the bassline. I'm diggin' this already. Enjoy!

Call Me Maybe

Sorry I'm not sorry.  I like this song.  I turn it up when it comes on the radio.  Its catchy, its pop-y, and no I won't give you my man card 'cuz dammit Carly Rae Jepson is still better than Justin Bieber.  Once I build up my confidence, I will even support and defend why it is OKAY to like J.Biebs (GQ thinks its okay and you should too!).  But that is besides the point.

Call Me Maybe.  Possibly THE "It Song" of the 2012 summer season.  Quite honestly, it hasn't been remixed as much as I though it would, especially compared to Gotye's "Somebody That I Used To Know" and Fun.'s "We Are Young."  However I have just discovered (literally in the last 10 minutes) a Trap remix of Call Me Maybe which I LOVE!.  For those of you who don't know what Trap is, its one of the more recent developments in the EDM community, and a tried and true production method for rap music.  At its core its snares, high hats and kick drum beats around the 140 beats per minute (bpm) mark.  Then its infused with electronic staples like synth loops etc.  Artists who are becoming prominent in the scene are Flosstradamus, OH SNAP!, and some other artists such as Dillon Francis have tried their hands at and have been quite successful.

Speaking of Call Me Maybe and Trap, I have another free download for you brought to you by DJ Double0. http://www.djdouble0.com/
