DJ PLANS BEST OF 2011

Everybodies doin these lists. I couldn't think of anything I liked at all this year, except maybe sipping Cazadores Anejo tequila. But maybe there was some other stuff too. Without further ado, 22 days into the new year, ( 21 without booze) my top 10 picks....

Wugazi: Thoroughly enjoyable mash-up album by Swiss Andy and Cecil Otter. I think 36 CHAMBERS should be mashed up with every album ever made. Get on this people
.http://wugazi.com/

Wu-Tang vs Jimi Hendrix: There are at least 2 of these. BLACK GOLD is the clear winner but the other one is good too.

Dillon Francis: Thank god dubstep is pretty much over. Moombahton should have way more staying power since its not just the same song over and over again.

Mike Posner. Bow Chicka Wow:  Catchiest song ever. This was my guilty pleasure track of the summer. I drove everybody crazy with it. I even did a mash-up with Zeds Dead Rumble in the Jungle on my last mixtape.

Video for Save The World. Swedish House Mafia: The song is actually not bad for pop but the video is a stunning piece of art. I forced people to watch it wherever I was and if they didn't love it, they weren't my friend anymore.

Jon Kwest:This guy came out with so much stuff this year. All of it good. Moombahjazz, Moombahton vs Drum and Bass, Moombahton vs UK hardcore plus tons of singles. Apparently being from Baltimore makes you talented and very hard working.

Iggy Azelea: Hard to believe this bitch is from Australia. I used to think those people had virtually no musical talent (til I discovered all the folks at Scattermish). Anyway she is hot and talks dirty and her producer is called DRUGS. How cool is that?

Cumbia Cosmonauts: Tropical Bass, Digital Cumbia, I can't get enough. These guys are awesome. The first E.P. is a tribute to lesser known space programs. I actually paid money for that....


DJ Spinbad: This was my throwback discovery, except he's current as can be. I used to listen to him on the Return of the DJ turntablist compilations in the 90s. He still scratches but now remixes and puts out epic mixtapes. The Needle to the Groove is my fave but check them all out. The 8os and 90s megamixes are hilarious....Tons of free downloads on his website.

Lil B-I'm Gay: Based God. Holy shit. He samples Bo Hansens Lord of the Rings. I thought I was the only person on earth with that record. Lil B gets the Kool Keith award of the year for being so freaky and funny. There are also some mixtapes that are just as good as the album.

UNCONTROLLABLE b/w UNHOLY: DSA

I've had this record since it came out, I think I traded a joint for it or something. It sounds so Wu-Tang you might think it was Wu-Tang. Turns out, this guy was a Wu-Tang affiliate called DARK SKINNED ASSAsSIN but he went to jail for a while and now he's called DR.AMA. New name sounds a little swishy (nah mean?) Any way, If you like the 36 chambers, you'll prolly love this.

BEST MOVIE SOUNDTRACKS OF ALL TIME

EASY RIDER

One of the greatest independent films of all time. I first saw it on VHS in the late 80's while ripped on MDA. I had no idea what the hell was going on but when I saw Dennis Hopper and Jack Nicholson  dancing like birds I knew I was seeing something special. At the end when they go to Mardi Gras it felt like I did more acid than them (MDA was pretty hallucinagenic back then).....This is a definite desert island selection....all of these songs are timeless classics except Born To Be Wild which is the cheesiest most overplayed bullshit track in the history of bullshit. Just skip past that one.

Steppenwolf –The Pusher

Steppenwolf –Born To Be Wild

Smith  –The Weight

Byrds - Wasn't Born To Follow

Holy Modal Rounders -If You Want To Be A Bird

Fraternity Of Man –Don't Bogart Me (AKA Don't Bogart That Joint)

Jimi Hendrix Experience - If Six Was Nine

Electric Prunes - Kyrie Eleison/Mardi Gras (When The Saints)

Roger McGuinn –It's Alright Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)

Roger McGuinn –Ballad Of Easy Rider

THE HARDER THEY COME
This is a fairly enjoyable film. Typical story but Jimmy Cliff is convincing as a gangster musician. The soundtrack is a collection of some of the best Jamaican songs ever. My first ever paying DJ job was playing reggae. I just lied to get it and said I was an experienced reggae dj. In reality I had only ever heard maybe one Bob Marley record and some Linton Kwesi Johnson. I was completely ignorant to the fact that djing was invented in Jamaica. A friend lent me a small collection of ska, rocksteady and reggae records and this record was one of them. I think I played pretty much every song on the album every Saturday night for about 2 years.....


1. You Can Get It If You Really Want-Jimmy Cliff
2. Draw Your Brakes-Scotty
3. Rivers Of Babylon-The Melodians
4. Many Rivers To Cross-Jimmy Cliff
5. Sweet And Dandy-The Maytals
6. The Harder They Come-Jimmy Cliff
7. Johnny Too Bad-The Slickers
8. Shanty Town-Desmond Dekker
9. Pressure Drop-Maytals
10. Sitting In Limbo-Jimmy Cliff
11. You Can Get It If You Really Want-Jimmy Cliff
12. The Harder They Come-Jimmy Cliff

MC Punjabi. How big was that track? That's still THE East Indian jam. If I play a wedding and there's a brown guy there, I play this track and everybody is gettin down like a slumdog. Anyhoo, this is the Excel remix, the backing beat is the Murder She Wrote beat (Bam Bam Riddim). How can you not approve. Heres Excels website: http://www.djexcel.com/
