N.E.R.D. - "Hypnotize U"

I'm diggin' the 80's laid back feel of this track. N.E.R.D. always mixin' it up, but with this one, it's kind of a straight forward joint, and I enjoy that.

You can catch N.E.R.D. at their official website and on twitter, of course.

Anyways, take a listen and leave a comment below.

Last Day at Fat Beats L.A. - DJs P-Trix & Clenz Roc

On Sunday, September 19, 2010, it was bitter sweet to be present at Fat Beats out on Melrose for the last day that the shop was going to be open out here in Los Angeles. Dang, I remember going to the shop when it first opened over on Vermont!

Some great DJs came out to rep and drop sets; DJ Revolution, Mr. Choc, C-Minus, J-Rocc... just to name a few.

It was my pleasure to capture DJs P-Trix & Clenz Roc when they jumped on for this quick session:

Kanye West - Power (Remix) feat. Jay-Z & Swizz Beats

Aight, this I can run with.  Lovin' the new chorus and Hov's verse is nice.  YE kills it on the remixed verse and I love Swizz's use of "I got the Power" in there.

I think Kanye's new album is gonna be fire.  What do you think? Leave a comment below!

My Birthday Fundraiser for O.I.

Osteogenesis Imperfecta (O.I.) is a genetic disorder that is characterized by brittle bones that break easily.

I live with O.I. and I've been blessed to have accomplished many great things even with the disability.  Even after breaking my bones over 35 times in various parts of my body, I have always kept a positive attitude about life and continue to live my dreams.

I want others (most with more severe cases of O.I.) to have a chance to do some great things also!  Let's heal the bones as well as the spirits of those living with O.I.

My birthday was on July 25th and instead of asking for gifts, I put together a campaign to raise $250 to go towards research to find a cure for O.I.

Please take a look at my Birthday Wish and please donate if you can!

Every dollar counts and this is something that means a lot to me!

Dynamite Jive's Email List

We all see what's happening to MySpace, right?  It's going away.  And eventually, even Twitter and Facebook will meet the same demise.  There will be other social networking sites, but we've found that it's most important to keep records and stay in contact with our friends and fans by maintaining our own Email List for Dynamite Jive.

It's for this reason that I am asking you to sign up right now!  We won't bombard your inbox with unnecessary, spam-ish emails.  Honestly, we send out updates about once per month.  Occasionally more when there are really important things going on.

We will also be offering exclusive things to those signed up!

As always, we appreciate your continued support of our music and we look forward to seeing everyone out at one of our live shows soon.

Kanye West - "Power" (featuring Dwele)
