The Battle Hungry B-Boy Mixtape by Dj's Flipout x Statik x Hedspin

Attached is a mix that myself and the homies Dj Flipout (Los Hermanos Libres / Those MF's / The Beat 94.5) and Statik (WeFunk Radio) did for a bboy battle that takes place here in Vancouver called Kill Beats which is Vancouver’s largest and most respected series of breakdance competitions. This also makes for a great listen if you are in a rush of some sort. Lots of good funk, soul, and hip hop on this one.

Enjoy!

Dj Eleven - Every Freakin (ILLO + KAEM REMIX)

Well after waiting some time im proud to say that a new remix i made saw its official release yesterday! The big homey Dj Eleven (The Rub, NYC) asked me to remix his new single "Every Freakin" for his own 11 Inch Records Imprint. Me and my music writing partner Dj Kaem turned in a Futuristic Funk number complete with talk-box and live bass. The release also features great mixes from Dj Ayres, Mike The 2600 King, and of course Dj Eleven featuring our Freshest Kids homey Kutcorners.

The release is now available at all of the top retailers, including Turntable Lab where they picked my remix as a "hot fire" track selection. I would love to see some of you support it so please follow the links below and help me spread the word as much as possible.

DJ SCRATCH SHOWCASE DURING EPMD SHOW AT FORTUNE SOUND (05/25/2010)

When it comes to being the backbone of hip hop, Dj Scratch is one of the best and here is the vid footage to prove it. EPMD put on an amazing show that night but as a dj I was just as excited to see DJ Scratch cutting up the samples live on all of their songs the exact same way they were done as the studio recordings. If you haven't checked out Scratchvision yet, this is one of the only websites where you can see true legendary djs such as Kenny Dope, Primo, and Just Blaze on a weekly basis just to name a few.

Shout out to Frontline, Gman & Rizk, and Fortune Sound for putting on a memorbale event.

Special shout outs to Defenders Of The Faith, DJ Marvel and Marlon J English for holding it down for Vancity.

Van Morrison - Domino (Illo Disco Surprise Mix)

A song i originally premiered on Super 7 Pt. 2 with the homey JayCeeOh is now finally available for download over at my soundcloud page. Go check it out and some of the other stuff up there too!

The Frenzy 2: Rave Edition

What's crackalackin'!

So it's finally arrived, the follow up to The Frenzy! I'm really excited that i get to finally share this with everyone, it feels like this mix has been through hell and back... I started it almost a year ago and would work on it periodically for a few months here and there. When it was finally getting close to done, I found myself unhappy with a few chunks and went into more editing. By the time i finished editing and was happy with it, it for some reason would not render off my computer. It was just stuck there and i couldn't find the corrupt files within this mayhem of waves for the life of me. I let it sit for another few months until i realized how much room it was actually taking up on my studio computer. So i said, thats it, I either render or it, or delete it. With that, I gave it some patience/TLC and within a few days, BOOYA! I FINALLY got it!

So here we are almost a year later...

NICE & SMOOTH LIVE @ FORTUNE SOUND CLUB

NICE & SMOOTH
May 4th, 2010 / Forutne Sound Club, Chinatown, Vancouver, BC
reviewed by Rhek

A Nice and Smooth show in 2010 is supposed to be a disaster. It should be a
meager crowd of like 16 awkward 30 something male rap dorks and a lackluster
performance by 2 fat old men who are out to grab a quick buck as a Golden
Era throwback memory.

Instead it was raging house party with your two favorite charismatic black
Uncles. They danced sang and rapped non stop and spent most of the night
doing so off stage and in the crowd. It was a god damn house party gong show
dance festival as opposed to a concert and it was mad fun. Basically If
cocaine ever got depressed it would sniff Nice and Smooth to feel good. And
the tribute to their friend Guru was so heartfelt and genuine (plus they
also called Solar out as basically being responsible for Guru's death).

Random things that should be bad but weren't because of the party atmosphere
they created:
- They did a total of like 4 songs all night and 2 of those they songs did
twice - but it was still incredible
- like any good drunk uncle they hugged girls for awkwardly long amounts of
time (and Greg Nice was sweating more than Patrick Ewing).
- Smooth B did a whole verse over Bob James Nautilus (this is 2010)
- they did a retarded amount of call and response but it felt legit
- the crowd got to do a Hip Hop Karaokee version of Audio 2 "Top Billing"
over a Greg Nice beatbox cept Smooth B kept coming in with the wrong vocals
at the wrong time
- they did accapella versions of their songs (they probably only have like 2
of their own instrumentals)
- Greg Nice called out all Asians in general (and specifically Needle
Kineval) for being shy and then invited them all on stage
-they dragged Rob Rizk and Craig Frontline on stage just to thank them for
throwing the show.
- it was a fucking Nice And Smooth show in 2010

SUMMARY: Legendary awesome energetic show that was really fucking fun to be
at and I'm really hungover today plus I lost my voice.

Homework - 1st Edition

In an effort to get back into posting, and also to recommend some great music to check out, i've started a new feature called "HomeWork" for the blog. Every couple weeks myself or one of the eh team guys will post links to forgotten or lesser known music videos, as well as their purchase link. To make it easy I decided Discogs would be the easiest place to buy the vinyl (because they have the biggest selection). I have also included some digital links, but again not all of them. Do yourself a favour and look around - lots of amazing music out there!

Feel free to respond with your own links and videos and hopefully we can all get learnt....
