Get Down

I get a ton of tracks in my inbox but rarely anything I end up playing. Here's an exception, this simple and useful blend has already been a staple since early summer and will finally be released officially on new Me & Him imprint.

I'm Back...

...and there was a ton of good stuff in my inbox.

Brand new mix by my man Smutlee in London. Dancehall and funky all the way, with big hits from both genres mixed with lesser known tunes and exclusive blends.
Smutlee: November Dancehall & Funky Mix

And another classy mix, this one from my Soulico peoples in Tel-Aviv. This is a live recording and has a real laid back warm-up vibe to it.
DJ EyalRob: Soul Ecstasy live at the Shesek Pt 1


This is finally out and you definitely need to grab it if you enjoy banging club beats with Lil Jon samples and solid raps. And I know you do.

Eli's remix of Diplo's Blow Your Head, you know the song with the big JB's synth. Courtesy of Mad Decent.

On a related note, check Diplo's take on DJ Mujava's Township Funk as well. Looking forward to the full remix set, I doubt none will match the incredible original though.

Fool's Gold Remixes


As you might have noticed I'm really feeling the recent Fool's Gold output and the remix comp especially. I'd have to say these 3 are my favorite tracks from it.

Kid Sister: Pro Nails (Rusko Remix)
Treasure Fingers: Cross The Dancefloor (Chromeo Remix)

Make sure to check out the CD release tour too if you're in the area. The rest of the tracks you can grab over at Iheartcomix.

Oh Well

So I missed the Discobelle party back home and I missed this. Go get it, it's my little updated edit of this.

And I'm going to miss the DJ Sega & DSJ night this weekend which really sucks too. All of my HKI peoples make sure to be there OK.
Have a fun wknd ya'll, I'm out to see what L.A.'s Little Tokyo has to offer.

UPDATE: Oh so the edit is here too. Eli's that dude.

UPDATE pt 2: Little Tokyo is just great. So many cool restaurants from sushi to ramen to shabu shabu to Korean BBQ. I also need to shout out last night's hosts Blu Jemz and Mike B, the funniest dudes in L.A.

Ghis

So over the last couple of months I've turned into this Ghislain Poirier fan. As far as internet club shit with some sense goes, this has been one of the best tracks all year and the first leak from the forthcoming Face-T & Ghislain Poirier mixtape is kind of bangin as well.
It's on the Crookers / Kid Cudi beat, just so you know.

Jockin Jay-Z (Dirty 320)
Just re-posting some shit that's been all over the nets since last night. I don't think it's properly mixed either, but kinda enjoyable nonetheless.

And while on the topic of the Roc, this just dropped. One of my favorite cuts from Graduation.

King Tutt Evolution EP


Dang... the new King Tutt EP, you know the one I mentioned a few days back, is truly my shit. Just get it, either from the Unruly store or from Itunes.
Here's one of the multiple bangers for you to check out.
King Tutt: Still Rolling (192)

BONUS:
Also, here's a King Tutt (I think) jam I have more or less had on repeat for the last 12 months. I don't know where I got it from, I don't know what the real name is (Scottie B didn't know either, so I just started calling it the Justin Remix), but I know it's one of the banginest things I heard in all of '07. When the Moments In Love hit... it's game over.

90's Riddim

About time I posted some new dancehall... This is the 90's Riddim, produced by Suku of Ward 21. There's like 10 songs in total, here's my choice 3 for you to check out.

Buju Banton: Model Inna Dance
Mr Easy: Long Jefity
Mega Banton: Never

BONUS: This ain't brand new, but I like it a lot and seems like every time I play it someone comes up to ask what it is. Produced by Black Chiney, the song appears on the Estelle full length as well as a Jamaican 45.

Estelle: Come Over

She also does the song live with John Legend.

Big up Komposti Sound.

I haven't been posting much new stuff recently, maybe I should change that I dunno... Anyway, here's a real banger that's been around for a second, but surprisingly took me a few listens to get into. I mean really, Wiley over DSK's 1991 house classic What Would We Do, what's not to like?

Wiley: Wearing My Rolex

The much hyped new single on DFA is finally out next week. People can't seem to stop talking about the Frankie Knuckles remix. It is really good, but I prefer the dub which supposedly is not going to be on the 12".

Update: the dub will be on a 12" after all, on the so called Blind #2 that's out a week after the first one.

Just when you thought it was safe in the club...

The anticipated second remix album by my fellow HKI deejay dudersons Top Billin will be finally out next week. This time the EP includes a bunch of outside productions, among them Work It by The Rub's world famous DJ Ayres and a new jack swing club remix called Nothing But A Party by yours truly.
For your enjoyment:

DJ Ayres: Work It
Top Billin: Do You Wanna Party
DJ Anonymous: Nothing But A Party

Note: the above three tracks are ipod quality at 128kbps. If you gonna play them out do everyone a favor and go get the record when they drop it. If you're a professional DJ and live in a far away place not serviced by real record stores such as this and this drop me a line and I just might hook you up with some 320's.
You can also hit Mr Nenis on their myspace.
