Looking forward to the next time that I play in an arena as large as this. Anyone have a stadium they need me to perform in!?
I was pleasantly surprised to learn about this via twitter. It seems that the amazing store INTERMIX chose to share my soundcloud page as their recommended soundtrack for Memorial Day weekend. Check it out here!

Some mornings you wake up and find that remixes you did many months ago have appeared on The Hype Machine. This was one of those mornings. I found 3 remixes, in fact.

DJs/Remixers and Producers exist in a grey area of the law. This article takes an interesting stance on mashups and remixes – saying that they could potentially be “legal” according to the laws of “fair” use. Discuss.

This is what I looked like in 1998. This is also what my kitchen looked like. Apparently I stole that Pharcyde t-shirt.
A very interesting article on the legality of utilizing uncleared samples in music… even if you give it away for free, you can find yourself in deep legal trouble This is exactly why I am partnering with legitmix.com for my upcoming release.

When two Jay-Z mash-ups come in from two different sources on the same day, I take that as a sign that we need to post some Jay-Z mash-ups. At first I thought about separating these two to give each producer their own well deserved time in the spotlight, but then I figured that combining them would make twice as much sense, hopefully get each twice as many views, and ultimately cut the amount of work that I had to do in half. So naturally I went with what was easiest for me and put them together. Just kidding. I actually did this because it’s easier for you guys. Less pages to load, less things to click through, and we hate clicks too (don’t kill me Confusion), so it all works out in the end.
Now when you see Jigga’s name next to The Beatles, everybody immediately thinks “The Grey Album, Danger Mouse, been there and done that”. Yeah well, this shit is different. This mash-up by The Melker Project takes a rare Beatles’ accapella of “Because” and swirls it up with Jay’s “Say Hello” off theAmerican Ganster album to create a new version that you’ve definitely never heard before. Give both of these fine remixes a listen and enjoy the weekend!
