Vital “Herbalist” (Produced by Federation Sound)

I know I posted my remix with the Federation boys from the Bay the other day, but The OTHER Federation (i.e. FEDERATION SOUND the Reggae/Dancehall boys) with a smash with their new artist Vital. This song is in the same vein as Jr. Gong’s epic “Welcome to Jamrock,” and this jawn is just as hard. Was just rapping to Kenny Meez about how much we love this style of production: hard-ass one-drop-sampling ish with that heavy bassline. So dope.

Flamin Hotz Record Club

Head over to Flamin Hotz Website and join their Record Club. The basic pitch is that you can pay a fee ahead of time and be guaranteed delivery of all the Flamin Hotz releases in 2009. Flamin Hotz is an adventerous label that has put out two Emynd & Bo Bliz records amongst a wide variety of other stuff–some of which I’m into and some of which I’m frankly not into. But, the point is, they’re a dope label that deserves and, unfortunately in this tough economy, NEEDS your support to keep making records. So, get like me and support their ass! I paid em and so should you!

DO IT NOW!

Pryda “Armed” / Sean Paul “Temperature” (Emynd Blend)

LUNCH BREAK BEATS #10:

Pryda “Armed” / Sean Paul “Temperature” (Emynd Blend)



Emynd’s Lunch Break Beats is a series of club-friendly blends, edits, or beats Emynd produced on his laptop (usually while sitting in his car on some random side street in Wilmington, D-ware just after eating his WaWa lunch) while on his lunch break at his 9 to 5.

The whole series can be found here.

My man Bushy has been schooling me on the wonders of really cheesy Swedish House music, and I’ve been making a bunch of edits and blends of some of my faves that will work better in some cross-over situations–especially for people more familiar with hip-hop and dancehall. This Pryda and Sean Paul blend is the first in a bunch that will be coming over the couple weeks and months. Enjoy! As always, thoughts and comments are encouraged!

Ryan Leslie “Diamond Girl” Dancehall Medley

Dope Ryan Leslie blend on top of three great riddims by DJ Gunshotta. Sounds amazing over the Playground… a lil bit out of key on the Go Go and Gear Box, but will still be useful in the club

LUNCH BREAK BEATS #8:

T-Pain featuring Lil Wayne “I Can’t Believe It” (Emynd’s “Bookshelf” Blend)

Brendan Bringem bitched at me the other night trying to tell me I’m just a contrarian because I love “I Can’t Believe It.” He’s WRONG! The song is really charming and fun. T-Pain rhyming words together that hardly rhyme is just so damn likable (“Wisconsin” does NOT rhyme with “mansion” but it’s awesome). Wayne’s verse is atrocious and I’m not even really sure why I left it in this blend, but if you’re riddeming this up with the other joints from the Bookshelf riddim, you really shouldn’t have much trouble mixing out before Wayne gets his horrible on. By the way, I guess I should say a few words about this blend, right? Well, it works! There’s a few sour notes here and there, but nothing anyone in the club will notice and for the most part, it’s in key and gives this song a more energetic feel. Quite frankly, the Bookshelf riddim is my favorite damn riddim ever so I love throwing stuff on top of it. Hope you find it useful and comments are welcome as always!

Gregg Nyce Blends

A couple really dope dancehell blends by Gregg Nyce. There’s some sour notes on the “Single Ladies Anthem” blend, but for the most part it sounds good. I guess he put Wayne’s horrible hit “Ms. Officer” over some Estelle song I’ve never heard of, but it’s perfectly in key and sounds really good (especially the bridge!!). Good, useful work!

Benja Styles Reggae RMX: T-Pain “I Can’t Believe It”

pain

So T-Pain’s new joint is not very club friendly, but Philly DJ Benja Styles made a really nice remix that solves this problem. The beat sounds very much like the Showtime Riddim, but I’m not sure what it actually is. I played it on friday and it got a very good reaction. T-Pain’s next album should be crazy and what’s even crazier is I found out dude just turned 23! Damn!

New Federation Riddem: GUTTERBALL!

Kenny Meez from the untouchable Federation Sound camp (RIP DISCO D!) leaked the Federation Gutterball riddem and it’s effing massive. Put all your weird electro house MP3s away and play some grimey uptempo dancehall ish. Peep “Excellent Hole” below and if you’re feeling it, scoop the whole riddem just beneath that.
