Boy, do I miss my Chicago friends ... especially this guy - DJ Form a.k.a. Oren Form Kopperl - incredible turntablist and DJ/MC for Pseudo Slang. Oren's been rockin the ones and twos for a great many years and you can hear it. I present DJ Form's set at Resonate v.5 from April 2010 - when I first met this guy. Let the music speak for itself.

HIDDEN TREASURE :: Symphony Hall - Metal Arrives

Symphony Hall - Metal Arrives Barrel dEM
Symphony Hall - Metal Arrives

I devour music ... yes I eat and eat and eat - I am an addict. It's all an attempt to find the best tracks out there. It does pay off, however. Symphony Hall is a one time collaboration between Riton and Canblaster - brought about through Surkin's Marble Music label. This bipolar gem has got it all - hard electro beats + oh so groovy piano chords and female vocals. It's a musical orgasm!

Good footwork gets me trill like no other music, especially when it's done right. Here's a perfect example - Clams Casino's I'm God remixed by P-80. I've never even heard the original - I don't care ... I know it won't be this good!

Julian Lozano - My Own Lane

Longtime brosef and rapper Julian Lozano a.k.a. J-X has been busy since his recent transplant to Louisiana. My Own Lane, which has recently dropped, is Julian's anthem to doing it his way - manifesting his own reality. This is a hype tune with nice a "dirty south" trap melody providing backup.

Keep doing it your way, brother!

Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros - Life is Hard (Teen Daze Remix)

As I write this, a golden sound washes over. That talented Canadian - Teen Daze has done it again with his remix of Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros - Life is Hard ... it hits you right it the gut and heart and head. If Teen Daze was a chemist, his drug would be sought after far and wide. In any case, he's got me hooked on his magic. Listen to this one at full volume!
