I’m a little late on this one, but it’s never too late for one of Welcome Hohme’s favorites, NSR. If you’ve been in any club within the last 6 months, I’m sure you’ve heard Lloyd Banks track; Beamer, Benz, or Bentley. Well, as on-point as we’ve come to expect from NSR these days, he’s come up with a clever take on the track, this time paying homage to not only one of mine, but one of New York’s most beloved breakfast snacks; the Bagel. He’s named it Cream Cheese, Butter, Jelly and even shot a hilarious video to go along with it. Check out my other posts on NSR, as well as his Myspace…word is we’ve got some more fire on the way from him, so keep your eyes out.

Audio Oddity

Hohme — Mon, 19 Jul 2010 01:00:00 +0000

Matthew Michael, also known as Audio Oddity’s been playing music in Southern Oregon for years now and he’s just starting to put some of his produced/sound engineered work out. Well, I’ll tell you what, he really stepped his game up for Amp Live’s Turn It Up remix contest. He’s due to release his first full-length EP entitled “Hiding in the Light” by January of 2011. HTL, in his words, will be “..a blend of both natural and electronic sounds designed to make you both move your feet and quench your soul.” Jump over to Amp Live’s site to vote for his remix, as he’s currently in the top 20 and the contest ends on the 22nd. I also included his track, Mystic Garden Party Mashup, just cuz it’s dope. Check some more of his tracks out on Soundcloud, and head over to his Myspace for his acoustic/analog work

Crunk In Public

Hohme — Fri, 16 Jul 2010 04:00:43 +0000

Crunk In Public, out of my home city, Ashland, OR, are a new Retrostep mashup side-project of producer/DJs, Bassobese and RaSouL. I can’t stop listening to these two bangers I chose to share by them; one of Sublime’s classic, Summertime vs. Vaski, also Flo Rida’s Right Round vs. Sharps. I think a lot of dubstep producers these days are pigeonholing themselves into a genre that may be too niche to garner a serious following. Crunk In Public sounds like they know what they’re doing though. They’ve done a fantastic job adding hard dubstep elements to the track all while maintaining the catchy nature of both songs, which I think will be key for them to continue to gain exposure online while building a more diverse audience. They’ve currently got four dubstep/mashup tracks for free download on their bandcamp site, so hit that up for the additional tracks and may your summer be filled with sunshine, smiles, and tons of that womp.

Donnis

Hohme — Mon, 12 Jul 2010 20:21:47 +0000

One of the artists I’ve had the pleasure to see rise from zero to hero is Donnis. As consistent as ever, he’s back with his new mixtape, Fashionably Late. You can literally see how quickly he’s risen solely on the long list of familiar names featured within the new mixtape. Hosted by Dj Ill Will, Clinton Sparks, and DJ Rockstar, Fashionably Late features the likes of Estelle, Yelawolf, OJ Da Juiceman, Colin Munroe, and John Legend and is packed with a bunch of club bangers and familiar samples. Lucky for you guys, it’s available for free download by clicking here. I picked two tracks produced by Ced Young, which I can’t stop listening to. Enjoy them and check out Donnis’s Myspace here and his site here.

Theophilus London Pt. 1

Hohme — Wed, 09 Jun 2010 07:01:48 +0000

I’m not sure if it’s Theophilus himself or his management, or whatever….but whoever’s behind this guy is smart. If you want a clear look into a near perfect model of what marketing should be in the current music industry, look no further than him. He dominates the blogs, he collaborates with the best producers and the hippest musicians, and focuses on the most important thing, live performances. Those of you who you know me, know my strong opinion about the music industry. My boy Loren Wohl, over at RCRDLBL, really hit it on the head in his post regarding Theopilus’s new free-for-download album, I Want You

“Theophilus works this [live performances, corporate endorsements, and licensing] to his advantage. Click over to his MySpace and you’ll see that he’s performing all over the world. Last October He teamed up with Mark Ronson and Sam Sparro to create Chauffeur, releasing a track to promote Ronson’s Gucci boat-sneaker. Mountain Dew’s Green Label Sound put out “Humdrum Town” with a music video in January. I Want You is his 3rd mixtape, hyped to the max and stuffed with uncleared samples. That’s another cool thing, when you take money off of the table artists can express themselves without limits. Yes, this is still illegal, but would Whitney Houston really sue him over a track that didn’t have a proper release?
What can aspiring artists learn from him? Make music that’s different (and awesome, of course), give it away for free, wait for the right opportunities, and don’t stop making music.” -Loren Wahl

Definitely head over to Theophilus’s blog to download the album for free, also, check out his Myspace for upcoming live performances. Also click here to check out two more additional track from his album.

Theophilus London Pt. 2

Hohme — Wed, 09 Jun 2010 07:00:39 +0000

….continued from previous post.

eRNEST&AMz

Hohme — Wed, 02 Jun 2010 17:21:37 +0000

eRNEST&AMz are an up and coming French and American electro/hip-hop collaboration sure to make their mark on the scene relatively soon. The group’s made up of Ernest Saint Laurent, a producer/multi-instrumentalist out of Paris, and Amz, a vocalist/DJ/producer out of NY. Their new remix of Miike Snow’s Sylvia is a banger….check it out along with another new track of theirs, Coming Up. Head over to their Myspace for additional tracks and info.

Douster

Hohme — Mon, 10 May 2010 20:13:05 +0000

It’s always great to find out an artist you really want to see is playing the day you find out about it….and even more if you can make it. That’s what happened a couple week back at the White Rabbit on Houston. I’d been hearing a lot about this new genre coming up down in Buenos Aires called Digital Cumbia, being pushed a great deal by this dope label called ZZK….so when I heard one of their main artists, Douster, was doing a show with the UK’s Doorly and Fool’s Gold’s Kingdom, I jumped right on it. Well, as expected, they all killed it. I personally spent almost the entire of the night dancing to their progressively addictive sounds. For this post, I chose to include Douster’s remix of Yolanda Be Cool’s Afro Nuts and Kid Sister’s Daydreaming. Look out for Douster on the road and check out his Myspace for some other tracks. If you’re looking for more information on ZZK, contact FeatBA, a new and dynamic agency who’re heading up the effort to connect ZZK’s artists and other creative efforts from Argentina to the rest of the world. Check out their recent write-up in the Huffington Post for more information.

Example

Hohme — Fri, 23 Apr 2010 04:00:40 +0000

Damnit I love this remix so much….and not just because his name rhymes with mine. You may remember it from my most recent mix, Going Internal. Moam’s take on Example’s Watch the Sun Come Up is a banger, not only because of it’s full sound and gratifying ups & downs but because every time I play it live, it makes my heart smile …I wish only the same or better upon you. Oh and I also added another remix by Devil’s Gun, which is great as well. Check out Example out here, Moam here, and Devil’s Gun here.

The Bird and the Bee

Hohme — Thu, 22 Apr 2010 01:54:40 +0000

I was introduced to the bird and the bee about a year back by the boy DRVA. I liked their album, Ray Guns Are Not Just The Future, but no where as much as I like their cover album, Interpreting the Masters: Vol. 1. The group puts a new age/electronic feel to Hall & Oates’ classic hits. Here’s two for you to enjoy, check them out here and here, and go gets this album…it’s worth it.

Mamarazzi

Hohme — Mon, 19 Apr 2010 19:21:21 +0000

To call Mamarazzi a talented group of individuals would be a complete understatement. I’ve probably seen them live over ten times since I moved to NY, and their eclectic blend of Afro-beat/funk/jazz/hip-hop/soul is unmatched. I was lucky enough to be asked to remix their hit song, Gangster, a few months back, which I ardently agreed to do. Well, after two busy months, I finally put the wraps on the remix. Hope you all enjoy my dancy take on it….oh yea, and don’t forget to change the light bulb.

Chew Fu

Hohme — Tue, 06 Apr 2010 00:01:04 +0000

One of the best pop/dance remixers out there currently, Chew Fu, out of BK, really knows what he’s doing. In fact, instead of a remixer, he likes to call himself a serial fixer, which I agree with. For the most part, his renditions are better than the originals….take for instance this fix of Rihanna’s Rude Boy. You’d never catch me listening to the original, but once he dropped this one, literally could not stop listening to it. I wrote about his Lady Gaga Bad Romance remix a while ago as well as featured him on my last two mixes, Nowism, and Going Internal…..so needless to say, he’s worth checking out….read his blog here and his Myspace here. Oh and as a little bonus, I included his awesome fix of the Ben E. King’s 60’s hit, Stand By Me, which he did with Steve Clisby. Enjoy hohmies.

Mt Eden Dubstep

Hohme — Tue, 06 Apr 2010 00:00:32 +0000

The boy Samwise pointed me towards this Kiwi dubstep duo a few months back and I’ve been meaning to write about them ever since. New Zealand is the last place I’d expect this kind of music from but I was happily surprised by Mt Eden’s clean and consistent production. I decided to include their original track, Sierra Leone, along with a remix of Burial’s Archangel. They don’t have much representation online, as far as I could find, they really only have a Facebook fan page, where you can check out their upcoming live shows. Either way, enjoy the womp

D.V.S*

Hohme — Tue, 06 Apr 2010 00:00:20 +0000

D.V.S. is dope….we’ve already established this. He just released a short mix (a little over 25 min) called Newell & Doran which I couldn’t stop listening to for about a week….figured you all would like to check it out, so here ya go. Peep his site and the Myspace for more info. Oh and word is he might be moving out to NY relatively soon, so get excited.

Rusko

Hohme — Wed, 24 Mar 2010 03:28:52 +0000

Rusko’s huge…if you know dubstep, his name is pretty much synonomous with the genre. He just released Da Cali Anthem, which is a BANGER, as it should be with a name like that. Enjoy this one as I’m sure it’ll be popular very quickly as well as another track of his, Your On My Mind Baby. Check Rusko out here and keep it rockin

Ellie Goulding Part 2

Hohme — Wed, 24 Mar 2010 03:23:19 +0000

…and here’s two recent remixes of her hit, Starry Eyed. I posted Jakwob’s remix a while back, which you can check out here, but this time it’s Penguin Prison with Theophilus London and Russ Chimes.

Hohme

Hohme — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 02:21:59 +0000

I dropped my newest quarterly mix, Going Internal, eight days ago to overwhelming positive feedback….in fact, it achieved over 1200 downloads in the first week after it’s release. The mix features nearly 80 artists, seamlessly blending together the newest and best in electro-pop, house, trance, and dubstep.

Mickey Factz

Hohme — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 04:00:22 +0000

I’m not positive as to how I found Mickey Factz, but either way, it was meant to happen. I haven’t heard any of his earlier work, just his most recent mixtape titled Dark Phoenix #ALPHA, which I found to be as intellectually tactful as it was pleasantly surprising. He’s definitely got a story to tell, which you can interpret through his passionately syncopated rhyming over top of sampled tracks from Phoenix’s hit album Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix. It’s been pretty few and far between these days where I find Hip-Hop that I really like and this album got me on first listen. I definitely recommend you download it, not only because it’s free and awesome, but because thoughtful, witty music like this is what’s going evolve Hip-Hop in the right way.

Dan Black

Hohme — Fri, 12 Feb 2010 04:00:15 +0000

So, the weather’s been str8 crzy in NY as of late so I haven’t been doing much walking around, buuuut, in hopes that the sun will be shining soon I’m gonna share with you my current favorite “walking/skating around NY song”. Dan Black’s an awesome new indie artist and this song Symphonies feat. Kid Cudi gives me chills. Check out the video here, his Myspace here, and his site here. Enjoy hohmies…nuthin but love yo…oh, and gimme, gimme, symphonies…gimme more than the life I see.
