I was suppose to be a sponsor for this CMJ party tomorrow but have been so busy with my business stuff that I never got around to it. For all you Le Miel du Mois lovers this show is a Steph Lund production just take a look at the line up and you’ll see not something you want to miss…
We’ve added a few bands and we’re REALLY excited. Don’t forget to RSVP (info below) and get there on time because the show is FREE and capacity is limited…
A lot of exciting things are happening this month, Hear No Evil continues to lock in clients, EMPT did over 2 Terabytes of traffic last month which is flat out ridiculous for this underground baby, and moves are being made on a daily to keep things in motion – We get’s busy ya’ll. On top of all that I woke up not too long ago to work on this mixtape and I was in pure delight when I finally got to listen to this months LMDM. Steph and I call ourselves twins when it comes to music and the song selection, vibe, energy and good times represented in this tape couldn’t make that little inside joke more true. To put it simply, she killed it. All the haters who showed up last month, this tape is going to be tough to deal with so…
Don’t hold on too long cause that’s how them stories start out, and all the girls that played me eat your mother fucking heart out…- Drake (Unforgettable)
All the other mixtape makers who’ve followed our blueprint, we’re flattered but remember…
I’m We the best at, you know I ain’t no apprentice to this
Me and my ni%&a# we invented the shit
I We came into the business with this, The Originator, none greater JazSteph-O finish this shit…” – Jay-Z (Jigga What, Jigga Who)
“There are a ton of amazing new indie and electro acts out right now. Lefse Records and Arcade Sound are two labels I always watch closely because they just seem to know how to pick em.
This month’s LMDM highlights a lot of new breakouts including Brooklyn based Bronze (unsigned), San Francisco’sBlackbirdBlackbird (Arcade Sound) and Dominant Legs (Lefse Records), Cleveland’s Cloud Nothings (Old Flame Records), 19 year old Brooklyn based Oberhofer (7″ out on InSound now), Hamburg’s Dirty Disco Youth (Dim Mak) and Chicago’s My Gold Mask (unsigned). And with summer (sigh) over, these artists give us a lot to look forward to with a breath of fresh air in their respective indie and electro genres. Go get your hands on as much of their stuff as you can, support them and buy their EP’s/albums.” -The O.RI.GI.NA.TOR
Harder Better Faster Stronger is something me and Hec can relate to now more than ever – everything is just getting bigger and better. EMPT and LMDM are committed to finding the best beats and artists and bringing them to our readers and I couldn’t be happier or more proud to be apart of it. This month’s Le Miel du Mois is fast fun that I hope will rock your tape til it pops. Enjoy the last month of summer. Make it count. – Steph
