RFRSH.YOR.PLYLST | Fresh Squeeze

Posted by Familiar Joe On August - 28 - 2010 ADD COMMENTS

This is the very first installment of Fresh Squeeze, a bi-weekly music blog bringing you bangers from all sides of the EDM lifestyle. If you  are catching my drift, I don’t like to keep it all about one specific genre. The general idea behind Fresh Squeeze is simple, I want to share my favorite music with you. The music I take the time every day to dig up from the depths of the internet (to your speakers). Attempting to keep this short and to the point, here are a few tracks for you to munch on.

Joe Nice AkA Mr. Niceguy

Mr.Nice guy..

Whether you like it or not, Joe has a large role in bringing the dubstep scene to critical mass across our nation (see what I did there?).  31 years young coming out of Baltimore, Joe Nice may have been around a lot longer than you thought. His very first time hearing dubstep was in 2002, that same year he decided to produce some dub himself. The rest is history, and somewhere in the future (check out his soundcloud, he’s been hard at work) What stands out about this guy is his willingness to work with songs by producers who are really not that well known, and convincing you that it very well should be playing in the clubs on the regular. (especially in EDM & Dub).

If you like diplo’s remix of “Hip hop”, you will want to make love to this track mix. Because of this track, I will keep a watchful eye on WTF!?

WTF!? and Dead Prez – “It’s Bigger Than Hip Hop UK” by Some Kind of Awesome

My old buddy Brent over at Full Sail turned me on to this track this evening over a very random phone call only telling me to listen to these last 2 mixes. Very exclusive stuff especially if you are a fan of Wolfgang Gartner or Deadmau5. I can only assume this 2nd production is unfinished, hence the “untitled” title.

I could sit here all night and turn this post in to an encyclopedia of dank ass dub, but what would be the fun in that? If you have any music you think I might enjoy enough to actually feature it in Fresh Squeeze, you can try to enlighten me..

Alright, I changed my mind. You will be hearing more of this around in the future mark my words. I like to think of it as Rapstep.  Let me introduce you to King Fantastic.

I was without internet for 2 weeks upon moving into my new place and I decided what better way to kill some time than to make some remixes? You know I had to take that Dirty South I know and love and put my own little twist on it.

Spillz & Dawe on MTV Cribs!!

Posted by Brian 'Docta' Dawe On August - 24 - 2010 ADD COMMENTS

When DJ Spillz and I were on our world tour we made a stop in Panama City right in time for spring break. It was right after Japan, and before Australia…. anyways, we were in the middle of spooning…. ughhh…. I mean, trying on our new platinum gold slivery mouth grillz when we were interrupted by a MTV camera crew. After Suge Knight (our personal security guard) shook them all down, we allowed them access to our ultra exclusive private beach house. I now present you our episode of MTV cribs:

Illuminati controlling the music industry?

Posted by Brian 'Docta' Dawe On August - 20 - 2010 2 COMMENTS

By now most of you have already heard about the illuminati rumors surrounding artists such as Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Jay-Z, Kanye West etc. To sum it all up, many believe that these artists, along with many other artists, are part of a group that are worshiping some kind of pagan, demonic god, but also control the music industry. These rumors have been floating around for quite a while now, but lately there has been a maelstrom (thats for you E-Rock) of music videos that are said to be bringing this secret culture to the forefront.

I personally ignored such talk as ignorant paranoia, but lately it has been hard to ignore the large amount of ritualistic type music videos. Is this a trend, or does it all have a deeper meaning? Two videos that have come out in the last few months really convinced me that this might actually be a reality.

Lady Gaga’s – “Alejandro”

Lady Gaga has been labeled as a puppet for the illuminati ever since she first appeared on the scene. In a number of her pictures, she either hides one eye or circles it, emphasizing the idea of the All-Seeing Eye.

Hey look! All of her friends are doing it too!

Lady Gaga has also been seen wearing horns, and what people call the “head of Baphomet” have appeared in her Bad Romance video. Her videos are filled with blatant symbolism, so much so that it can’t be ignored.

Kanye West’s new video for “Power” just added fuel to the fire. It clearly has all kinds of symbolic images.

Kanye West – “Power”

This account of the video is from the wikipedia article on “Power”:

“The Power video commences with a portrait-view headshot of Kanye West staring intensely into the camera and wearing a large, low-hanging gold chain necklace with an equally large pendant of Horus. **(the Egyptian god of the sky, god of war, and god of protection)** As the music begins, the camera slowly pans out in one continuous take to reveal West standing between black columns, and surrounded by partially-dressed female characters. Some kneel before him; some embrace; four figures wear ibex-like horns; and some are suspended upside down, pouring water that flows upward. Two horned, staff-bearing figures, loosely resembling interpretations of Isis and Hathor, stand on either side of West; each slowly strikes the ground with their staff, in time to the music. The Sword of Damocles hangs over the rapper’s head, while other slowly-moving figures appear ready to strike West with blades.”

Wow. Whatever happened to those Jesus pieces Kanye? Is this really the same guy who made “Jesus Walks“. Just the fact that he is wearing the necklace of a pagan god should raise an eyebrow or two.

So you say the chain is just a coincidence? How about this new bling Kanye has been sporting?

I could go on more, as the evidence is overwhelming. Before you yourself brush this off as another conspiracy theory I suggest you check out “vigilantcitizen.com” a blog that has been exposing these artists and videos one by one. Is this just another publicity stunt by the music industry, or are these music videos deep hidden occult messages being sent out by secret societies controlling the music industry? Visit “The Vigilant Citizen” and decide for yourself.

Kanye West – ‘Power’ Remix feat. Jay-Z

Posted by Brian 'Docta' Dawe On August - 20 - 2010 ADD COMMENTS

Kanye has been tweeting about this remix for quite some time. Funkmaster Flex premiered it in NYC at 12am this morning. Kanye recorded new verses over a basically new instrumental that samples the “Snap!” classic “I’ve Got The Power”. Jay-Z takes the intro and the first verse over the original production and drops some solid bars. The transitional ending with Swizz Beatz really stands out as well.

Mac for the first time.

Posted by Brian 'Docta' Dawe On August - 14 - 2010 ADD COMMENTS

Everything about Mac Miller is right. First off… this dude is a KID, only a young 18 years old. His mixtape is called “Kids” which stands for “Kickin’ Incredibly Dope Shit”. His sound is different, like, for real. He has a youthful hipster swaggg with a very old school, laid back, northern taste in beats (Other than the feel good anthem “Don’t Mind if I Do” which samples “Fireflies”).

The thing I like about him is he is a white rapper who is setting his own tone. People immediately compared Asher Roth to Eminem, maybe the white rapper syndrome had something to do with that, but Asher never screamed originality to me. This kid is different. I have never heard shit like this. His artistic homemade music videos paint the perfect suburbian picture of this Pittsburgh teenagers sound.

Details on him are still kind of hard to come by, I guess when you’re straight out of high school the bio has yet to be written. He is already getting attention from major hip-hop and music media, and according to his twitter yesterday (the day he dropped this mixtape) he was the 35th most popular search on google. Thats pretty impressive since I had no idea who this kid was last week.

Check out his video for “Traffic In The Sky/Don’t Mind if I Do” below:

Servin’ Up Some Asher

Asher Roth is back at it …. AGAIN.

This time with the oddly named “Seared Foie Gras with Quince and Cranberry.”

All names aside, this is a hot mixtape.  Just about each track is mixed served by a different producer.  Nice touch.

Extra catchy is the track with B.o.B., “Fck The Money,” produced by none other than Kanye West.  (Props to whoever knows where that sample came from.)

Check the end of the post for the torrent download.

Heat 20 minutes, Enjoy.

Verizon iPhone by Christmas?

Posted by dLux On August - 8 - 2010 ADD COMMENTS

vMacRumors.com is reporting that Apple is possibly looking to finally break free of AT&Ts exclusive contract for the hottest phone in the land (yeah I said it) the iPhone. It is rumored that Apple has put a large order in for CDMA based chips (which is what Verizon phones run on, as opposed to SIM based phones that AT&T and T-Mobile run on) and that it could possibly mean that we will see the phone of all phones on Verizon as early as Christmas.

What does this mean for AT&T? Do you think people will flock to Verizon and cancel their current plans? Doubtful. Verizons call network is much stronger and better but they also lack a strong data network which is essential for an avid iPhoner such as myself or anyone else really. I’ve done a side by side comparison of YouTube links, one with my old iPhone 3G and the other with a Blackberry Storm and it was quite painful on how long you had to wait for the video to upload on the Storm. But then again, maybe I am just a biased asshole.

Will you switch to Verizon if it shows up? I don’t even think its a question on if current Verizon users will switch to it or not, it’s just a matter of when. Blackberrys are clearly losing their appeal with the general public.

Spill the beans! DJ Spillz is back!

Posted by Brian 'Docta' Dawe On August - 3 - 2010 3 COMMENTS

If you are not familiar with DJ Spillz he got his start about 13 years ago in Allentown, Pennsylvania playing clubs all over the region. Since then he has moved to Florida, Hawaii, and California, dropping his unique sound and holding down residences.

Now Mr Spillz has finally dropped his first video mix!! This mix is FIRE. The intro alone is remarkable, and filled with unique cuts and scratches. The blends on this one are so smoothhhh and each track and video transition seamlessly. I honestly do not think I have seen a video mix as well done as this one. Remember where you heard him first…

If you like the mix please head on over to freakonomix and give this mix 6 stars!! You can also leave him a comment over there.

Water Park from DJ SPILLZ on Vimeo.

You can also download this mix here!: (beware, the files are massive… but it it totally worth it to be able to rock this on your iPod. [or Evo in my case] How’s that free bumper workin’ out Sprad & dLux?)

A little side note: If it wasn’t for DJ Spillz, there might not be a DJ Docta Dawe. Spillz was the first DJ I ever met and taught me a lot about the art of turntablism. I learned a lot of my skillz from Spillz!!

Another side note: Spillz is going to be the newest blogging contributor for Orange County Concepts so keep an eye out for a Spillz blog coming soon!
