Emynd & Bo Bliz UPCOMING March!

THE BOUNCE @ THE BARBARY
Emynd & Bo Bliz w/ Special Guest
BLU JEMZ

First Friday MARCH 6th
9-2 @ the Barbary

Ahhh yes, another banging edition of THE BOUNCE. This party has been coming on so strong in 2009, and this will be the most epic one yet. We’ve got our boy Blu Jemz coming down from NY to rock with us and he’s been on the circuit for a while, killing LA, NY, and all spots in between for the better part of a decade. Additionally, dude is a CANON and so we’ll be getting it the eff in. Peep him @ www.myspace.com/blujemz

As if that wasn’t enough, this is Exit Skateshop’s Grand Re-Opening Party! The whole squad is going to be in the house extra thick to celebrate Exit Skateshop’s move to 2nd Street in the No Libs (right next to the Foodery and the Standard Tap). So official.

And as always, Emynd & Bo Bliz will be holding it down.

We got that 9-11 OPEN BAR and Skate Videos and only $5 all night (after 10). And yes, it’s free before 10. So THERE’S NO COVER AND FREE DRINKS BEFORE 10. You’re stupid to not come early. And then, in a couple weeks we’re off to lovely Austin Texas for SXSW!

Shawty Lo “Roll The Dice”

Wow, mash up culture has really gotten out of hand. Shawty Lo rapping on Cold Play unironically? Amazing. Shawty Lo is too charming for me to resist even though Noz is telling me I shouldn’t like him anymore because “TI ripped his spine out Mortal Kombat style.” Even Noz admits that Shawty Lo sounds oddly appropriate on this song though. I mean, don’t get me wrong… this is pretty horrible, but I like the hell out of it!

Emynd featuring Young Chris “We Don’t Give A…” The Remixes Digital EP

Emynd Featuring Young Chris
“We Don’t Give A …”
The Remixes Digital EP

The long awaited Remix EP for Emynd’s Bmore Club/Philly Party Music Rap anthem “We Don’t Give A…” (original release here) with Rocafella/DefJam recording artist Young Chris is finally here and Crossfaded Bacon is releasing these tracks to you all for FREE, FREE, FREE! We recruited some of our favorite producers to submit remixes and we’re really happy with all of them. DJ Eli/Eli Escobar‘s excellent remix is on some updated-early 90s Native Tongue steez with blasting horns and a frenetic drum break while Cousin Cole‘s remix is equally as soulful with everyone’s favorite Sly and the Family Stone horn sample leading the charge on top of some excellent drum work. Likewise, DJ Ayres and the Nadastrom fellas give the song a complete overhaul (twice!) for two separate jukin’ remixes that differ slightly but significantly. Each of the remixes gives the track a whole new feel and we’ve played all of them out to excellent reactions in the club.

Download the Zip file below for the original and the remixes, or get each individual remix seperately. Whatever the case, thanks for the support and feel free to hit us with your comments!

Shouts out to Newt, Shareef, and Mark for help making this song happen and Steady B for the cover art inspiration!

This month, our homie buddy Bobby Analog hits us off with a solid mix of Outkast party anthems that’s sure to keep your after-party swerving.

Sebastian Leger “Apocalypse” / Dajae “Everyday My Life” (Emynd Blend)

LUNCH BREAK BEATS #13:

Sebastian Leger “Apocalypse” / Dajae “Everyday My Life”
(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.

Another blend involving some Euro House, this time blending the soulful vocals from Dajae’s “Everyday My Life” right on top of Frenchman Sebastian Leger’s remix of Arno Cost and Norman Doray’s “Apocalypse.” I’m really into Leger’s remix, but I feel like the vocals add a lot more energy and give the song a bit of a different vibe. Thoughts and comments appreciated as always!

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!

Emynd “But It’s Alright”

I don’t have a ton to say about this song except I love the original “Bra” (who doesn’t?) and just thought a quick Bmore/Party Break would be useful at certain parts of the night. As always with remixes of classic songs, I try to keep them as tasteful as possible, so this shit is hella simple with very basic chops. Put it in your “Opening Set Bmore” subcrate or something!

Only Built 4 Cuban Linx II Preview

XXL Magazine ranked Raekwon’s Only Built 4 Cuban Linx II the sixth most anticipated album of the year … in 2007. Now here we are in ’09 wondering what politics and fall-offs have kept this album – which has high classic Wu-reunion potential – out of our sweaty little hands. Hip hop needs this, and word on the street is that we won’t have to wait much longer for the full release . I’m hoping to at least make the album a summer staple. In the meantime the latest leaked tracks sound nice and make me remember back when I had “Criminology” as the voicemail background on my corny little purple Skypager.

My obsession with cheesy Swedish house continues… but I don’t give an eff what anyone says, the piano loop and breakbeat on “I Found You” is some of the most soulful ish I’ve ever heard. That ish is so hard, man. So yeah, I basically looped up the beginning of “I Found You” and made a Hip-House song out of this with Pase Rock’s “Get Money Kids” ‘pella. Already played this out a couple times and it’s worked really well. The build ups and break downs work really well and build a lot of energy. This is one of the better blends I’ve done recently. BANG IT! And leave some thoughts in the comments section if you feel inclined to do so.

Claude VonStroke & Christian Martin “Groundhog Day” / Pitbull & Young Boss “Girls Gone Wild” (Emynd Blend)

LUNCH BREAK BEATS #11:

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.

I meant to post this ON Groundhog Day, but I missed it by a couple days. Close enough. Anyway, I’m reconsidering calling this series “STUFF THAT SOUNDS HORRIBLE ON PAPER BUT ACTUALLY WORKS” because this blend is a perfect example… it sounds like it’s the stupidest idea ever on some OMG MASH ISH, but this is actually pretty tasteful in my humble opinion. I didn’t have an acapella for the Pitbull and Young Boss song, but the beat/song is in key with the CVS and Christian Martin tune so I filtered out the kicks in the rap song and blended the two… and frankly, I think they sound awesome together and compliment each other well. I’m not exactly sure how useful this blend is or who the hell would be interested in hearing it but eff it, I think it sounds dope which is reason enough for me to post it.

Enjoy and please feel free to hit me up with some comments!
