LUNCH BREAK BEATS #14:
Pryda “Animal” vs Miles Dyson “Intro” vs
Ralphi Rosario “You Used to Hold Me” (Emynd Blend)
![]() | The whole series can be found here. |
More House stuff for that ass. I love the bassline on Miles Dyson’s “Intro” but hated the stupid 20th Century Fox crap at the begging so I blended it with Pryda’s “Animal” and added Ralphi Rosario’s vox briefly. It sounds like mayhem on paper, but as usual, it’s actually pretty tasteful in practice. Play it or comment about it or something.

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

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!

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!

LUNCH BREAK BEATS #12:
Axwell “I Found You” / Pase Rock “Get Money Kids” (Emynd Blend)
![]() | The whole series can be found here. |
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)
![]() | The whole series can be found here. |
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!

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!

Saw this posted on the hollerboard and was momentarily terrified. Was expecting a horrible Blog House remix that updated this classic House song into something unbearably Bass-heavy and predictably formatted like “UNTZ UNTZ UNTZ UNTZ (music drops out)… FUNK DAT! (bass drops) WAMPY WAMP WAMP WAAAHMP WAAHMP.” Thankfully, it’s a really tasteful update of the song with some more relevant but equally hilarious lyrics. Highly recommended!
Check out Oh Snap!! on myspace and he should have some new stuff up on Beatport soon.

Talented producer, DJ, and rapper (not to mention all around good guy and fashion icon) Pase Rock‘s new double A-Side single “Get Money Kids/So Fu**ing Disco” is available on iTunes today. You may have already downloaded the mp3s at some point if you’re as blog savvy as the rest of us nerds, but you most certainly do not have Emynd’s “Get Money Kids” Remix or XXXChange’s “So Fu**ing Disco” Remix. Well worth your hard earned dollars and extremely dope cover art as well!
Vinyl will be available Februrary and I’m really psyched that the folks over at Dim Mak liked my remix enough to give it an official release. Shouts to the Fully Fitted Mafia as well.

LUNCH BREAK BEATS #9:
Rihanna “Disturbia” (Emynd’s “Finally” Blend)
I hate the OG “Disturbia,” but it’s a popular song so I wanted to make a version that I could play and not hate myself for. I realized it was in key with CeCe Peniston’s “Finally” so I re-sequenced the 12″ version of “Finally” to fit around the “Disturbia” acapella, added some extra kicks for some oomph, and voila, a useful blend for a variety of club settings. Obviously, mixing into or out of the OG “Finally” is a good luck and a great transition into some classic House.
