Remix magician DJ Theory is back with a free new pack for the summer, aka straight up party tunes on a reggae tip. Call him a Marley!
Stylo G x Bob – Call Me A Marley (Deejay Theory remix) by DEEJAY THEORY
Massacooramaan, aka Dave Quam, has added another notch to his impressive multi-tasking – the writer/photographer has now turned producer and his debut EP on Fade To Mind, Dead Long Time, is out now on vinyl and drops digitally tomorrow. As expected, it melds together influences from juke, featuring Rashad on ‘Aww Shit!’, reggaeton, dancehall, and some straight up soundclash vibes to kill mon dead. In his own words, the title track ‘is a homicidal ladies jam’, see what he means below:
Mixpak fam Poirier has worked his refix magic on the Loudspeaker Riddim, giving it the MTL touch with Boogat’s ‘El Hueso’.
Like a fence constructed of found material, this track by DJ4Kat is built on some readily available records. But its makeshift appearance houses a party so sturdy it could run until morning. Chopped samples of Beenie Man “Who Am I” are stacked onto similarly dismantled pieces of 50 Cent “In Da Club” and then sealed with new raw percussion and sounds. Then she adds a presumably Arabic element to the disoriented yet still familiar feel of this jumble. The Montreal producer specializes in dark riddims and beats with a touch of global influence. For a mountain of free music, check her Soundcloud.
