The kid Barry sent me this literally weeks ago but somehow in the endless waltz of learning, work, music and insatiable hunger for more that’s my life I haven’t been able to sit down and post it, until now. For a quiet guy like me, one who enjoys the dwellings of solitude so much I […]

The period of reflection that comes after some of life’s big events is a blessing that is, more often than not, taken for granted or overlooked completely. Not sure why that is, seeing as that’s where the learning comes from. I recently completed my undergraduate education, and have spent a lot of time reflecting. This […]
Classixx fondles the inner ears with a pumped up tune that breathes the summer that is slowly creeping down our necks. That’s right fellas, Brooklyn is a whole different place right now as shorts make guest appearances for a day, and skirts appear by the plenty. This song breathes a whole new life to the Classixx that I […]

Modern definition of an anthem: at zero point during the song do you have any urge to think about, let alone look at your phone. Classixx’s yet-to-be-released-but-imminent instant classic “Holding On” possesses this quality to the max. It sends shivers up and down my spine while sending a sharp burst of energy through my heart. It has […]
A few weeks ago we introduced you guys to French/DJ Producer Jorge Bonjour via his now wildly popular Kitsuné Club Night mix. His style can be described as seamless execution. His mashups, blends and remixes sound so effortless and well done that it’s hard to think of the songs as not going together in the first […]

Not too many will argue that slow music in the mainstream and underground has been pretty much absent for quite some time now. I can’t remember the last time I posted a song this slow and neither can I remember the last time I actually liked one. However, the Classixx remix of Active Child’s When […]
Thanks for coming out tonight, you could have been anywhere in the world but your here with me! I appreciate that.” It’s the first of the month and 2010 is looking better and better by the moment. February was a great month for EMPT, our following has never been stronger and our new company is […]

Want to know how to get a party started in 54 seconds? Play the intro for this remix and then turn the volume up really really loud when the beat drops – satisfaction guaranteed. Do you like bass?” I’m still suffering from post L.A. trauma and all I can think about while listening to this […]
