NaS – Back When

You love to hear the story, how it all got started…” Something about this verse hit me hard today. I grew up in Harlem during the 90′s, during Giuliani which means it wasn’t the prettiest of times but it wasn’t the 80s. NYC was tough if you were a sucker, but for most people in [...]

MIA – ‘Matangi’ Mix for Kenzo Fashion Show

Fresh to death is the only way I can describe this new MIA mix. Diplo and world influences all over the place, extremely raw, aggressive, edgy, full of energy and genre defying. Not since Kala have we heard such #spaceagerebel banger music, this mix is everything I could ask for right now. Make sure to listen for [...]

EMPT Premiere: DJ CAM – Uncomfortable (REFLEX Remix)

Situationally speaking, we’ve all been there. Finding ourselves in uncomfortable positions followed by a reassurance that —in the end— we’ll be OK. The not so good reality about that is that sometimes it’s more wishful thinking than an actual foreshadowing with any degree of certainty of a desired outcome. We’ve been yearning the balearic sea [...]

EMPT Presents – Wet Dreams #1 by Barry Poppins

We all want so much man, over achievement and extreme ambition are glorified and admired almost universally these days but have you ever stopped to ask why?… Hustle, hustle, hustle. Grind, grind, grind. Why does everyone got hustle on their mind?” MIA was something else back then, I remember first hearing that hook and questioning [...]

EMPT Presents: Bored Teenagers Vol. 1 by Annie Woods

Every so often in the most seemingly random and abstract ways the universe connects me with wonderful, like minded souls that come into my life to enrich, challenge and compliment everything I know about music. Most recently, in no less arbitrary fashion I met Annie Woods, a long term frequenter of EMPT whose taste in music and [...]

Bruno Mars – Locked Out Of Heaven (Major Lazer Remix)

It was thanks to my girlfriend that I first heard this song’s original version. I knew that it wasn’t worth it purchasing since I was about to listen to it nonstop on the radio and about every person’s iPod at home parties and alike. A week or two ago when I was writing about the [...]

WZRD – Teleport 2 Me, Jamie (ft. Desire)

The movie Drive made Desire’s Under Your Spell an instant classic and on February of last year Kid Cudi revealed his project WZRD (an alias he uses for the rock project where he partners up with Dot Da Genius). Drive’s soundtrack has the ability to transport (or teleport me, for that matter) to another time [...]

Disclosure – Latch feat. Sam Smith

“What did you give me, to make my heart beat out my chest.” Finding oneself in certain situations and not caring what our actions might do to jeopardize that moment… To feel that connection with someone and latching to her/him seems like the most natural thing to do. It’s instinct-driven I believe. Now Sam Smith’s [...]
