Albums, Hip-Hop | EmB – The Establishment

Posted by on December 30, 2011

EmB is new to my ears by only a few minutes, and is quite the refreshment. Aging like vintage wine, EmB at only 19 years old has soaked up a buffet of wizardry he’d like to share with us. His voice is a mixture of AZ & Mase with subject matter that puts both to shame making them look like the young ones. What first caught my ear is EmB’s vast selection of instrumentals that show his class for music of all kinds. Furthermore his interludes give hints of inspiration ranging from Tupac Shakur, Charlie Chaplin and one of the greatest philosophers the worlds ever had the privilege of learning from – Krishnamurti. EmB writes in his biography – taking shots at the mainstream and people who just can’t lend their ears for a minute and listen to some music with any type of direction. Of course I agree with that. Be sure to check his earlier project Brain Waves on Bandcamp. Shout out to Fly in the cbox for putting me on to this.

Electro | Kresado Ft. Lauren Vyce – Good Feeling Vs. Hangover

Posted by on December 29, 2011

This song is a straight up slap in the face (in a good way) from the moment you press the play button. With an other-worldly blend of electro-house, dubby wobblies, and vocal power, Kresado is at it again, this time teaming up with Lauren Vyce to bring you an original remix/mash of Flo Rida’s Good Feelin and Taio Cruz’s Hangover. Kresado’s production adds so much punch to this track that it will take even the most seasoned eardrums by sunrise.

House | Dada Life – Happy Violence (Special Features Remix)

Posted by on December 28, 2011


A 21st birthday and a debut release on the illustrious dance music mecca website that is Beatport? I would say that today was not a shabby day for young phenom Special Features. Not only is he now legally allowed to imbibe spirits of any flavor here in the States (preferably during a sold out show for a packed house in any of the number of wonderful clubs we have here in the US), but he is also able to brag to the ladies about how he is now an official professional musician (or does saying DJ get you more love?) Either way, Eden is killing it and this Dada Life remix is just one more example of how far he’s come. Well done man and happy birthday. Can’t wait for 2012. One more thing, get on Facebook and like his ass pronto!
Grab this track on Beatport!
