Just in time to get you excited about your weekend, America’s favorite rapping Slim Cracker is back…Yes ladies and gentlemen, Eminem!!! Listen here but I wouldn’t suggest downloading this version and using in a set, it’s a freestyle from the latest Shade 45 show! Enjoy and hope that he comes back with a full length soon and not just a guest appearance on some crappy 50 record.(via The Fader)

Dope new mixes in the next blog posts!

I do not consider myself a great DJ at all. I have dabble in many aspects of the field for 13 years now. One thing that has always perplexed me and been a big thorn in my side is when you go to mix 2 songs that you know have beats that are easily mixed but for some reason they sound awful together. It didn’t always make sense until one day I read about how many of the best Electronic DJs not only worry about BPM but also the Key in which the song is played.

Years of musical training all made sense at that moment. When someone sings a song off key, like a friends in the car, it sounds terrible. We all have experienced that. So why would it be the same for 2 songs that get mixed together.

Now if most of you are like myself, you don’t have the time to worry about this.

So in comes Yakov Vorobyev and his company Mixed In Key, LLC. A program I have been working with for over a year now.

It’s a pretty simple and straightforward program that can figures out the Temp and Key of every MP3 or WAV file you have. It will then place it’s analysis in the BPM and Comments section of your file and will then come up in any Software program you use. I have tested it with Serato, Traktor and Numark Cue. The video below is a bit chessy but informative.

The purist may get angered by this but as for I am all about spreading this simple process in order to hear more cleaner Mixtapes and Sets while out at the Local Dive! Also, on a side not, think about all the DJ AM/Crooklyn Clan mash ups you can make that will actually sound right together!

It’s supporters are impressive too from Kaskade to Blank & Jones to Deep Dish and Pete Tong. Amazing DJs with amazing talent.

The site explains it all and has great tutorials. There is no need for me to go into detail about how to use. But for a simple investment of $58, your current and future fans will be thanking you and in turn Mr. Vorobyev for this wonderful creation! Check it out now!!!!

New Music is Everywhere nowadays. Everyday, Radio is proving that it serves no purpose. Some may argue with me on this but at least when I head to the clubs in LA, more and more I ma noticing that the DJs and the crowd are beginning to know the Jams bumping throughout the net. Case in point, MSTRKRFT, which should be a household name for every DJ by now. You should be playing at least one of their remixes or originals in your set regardless if you spin Hip-Hop, Electro, Top 40 or Indie. People go nuts. On that note I give you their latest remix of John Legend’s jam, “Green Light.” If you haven’t got this yet then download it. Also attached are some other tunes you should enjoy. Have fun!

John Legend Ft. Andre 3000 – Green Light (MSTRKRFT Remix)

Greetings everyone,

As some of you may know, I’ve spent the past year and a half working on my debut solo album, Solitude, along with a brand new live show (turntables, synthesizers, visual elements, showcase sets, etc). The album contains guest appearances from Royce da 5′9″, C-Rayz Walz, Ill Insanity, Rites of Ash and more. The intended single is called The Right which features Jean Grae & Wrekonize. Unfortunately, this song WILL NOT be on the album due to an inability clearing one of the video game samples but feel free to check out the video and download the free MP3…

…Also, check out the album press release below for the full track listing and information to be used for public writings. Anyways, I bring you the official premier of my video so enjoy it and make sure to rate it, save it as a favorite, blog it, bulletin it, etc. Thanks again and be sure to mark your calendars. Peace. –DJ I-Dee
