If you haven’t noticed by now I love covers, especially when it’s an acoustic cover of an electronic song. Fedde Le Grand has a knack for simple but extremely infections rhythms and licks. Tm Juke recognized that and turned it into a bad ass guitar driven jam made strictly for the dance floor.
I’m starting to desperately crave the sound of real guitars, drums, horns and bass recently. There’s so much great electronic music happening but too much of anything is no good so I’ve been finding my balance in these interpretations. Balance truly does make everything better, if you get sick of something try something else and come back to that other thing and you’ll appreciate it that much more. Unlike many of the other outdated institutions there’s no pressure to be monogamous with your music so take full advantage of that my friends because it’s a beautiful thing. Alright, I keep forgetting Monday was a holiday and it’s throwing me off. I only have another day before leaving for the Dominican and there’s much to be done, enjoy.
I hope ya’ll are in a party mood because today EMPT & BroBible.com announce the first mixtape from new DJ/production group Casey Mendoza, aka myself and Kevin Casey. If you’ve been to one of our Noctambule parties the energy in this tape will bring you back to the debauchery and possibly make you start jumping so be ready to move when you’re listening. Ideal playing time for this tape is no earlier than 11:20 PM or in the gym. If that Rex Ryan / Justice intro doesn’t get you going then you must be a Patriots fan but it’s ok Tom Brady lovers can enjoy the gold too…
Last year, hey we we’re under the radar that’s a good place to be F&^K THAT! The best place to be is when expectations are high, get use to it, it’s always gonna be that way…
We don’t give a shit if you give us your best game, we’re gonna give you our best game and we’re gonna beat the f*#k out of you. How’s that? Lets go get it!
If you’ve been here before you know how serious I take entertainment and that intro is exactly how I feel about what Casey Mendoza represents – showtime. We’re here to put on a show no one has seen before, we don’t care if other DJ’s are selling you short cause we’re coming strong.
