messin' with Adobe Illustrator CC2015

trying out the new version of illustrator.. using the curvature tool to create some shapes and then using the new shape-builder tool to combine/add/subtract shapes to make new ones. also using some of the new alignment features. pretty cool what you can do in a short amount of time. love the look of that program.

Rihanna "Bitch Better Have My Money" (dj Jesster Fazeo Remix)

rihanna remix..  i love BBHMM.  about time i did a remix.  was feelin' kinda mellow on a flight from ATL to LGA and put this together.  i do some of my most focused work on a plane, i guess it's 'cause you don't have much else to distract you from the beat.

always loved "ridin' high" by faze-o.. inspired by the NWA song "always into something" and the EPMD song "please listen to my demo"  love the bassline and the high pitched synth sound and how they work together.

soundcloud's been a little weird lately with putting remixes up.. i got a message from them saying a remix of "happy" i did was in violation of some copyright protection thingey blah blah so they removed my remix and i now have "one strike" .... we'll see if they have beef w a rihanna remix.  there are so many remixes of this song already on soundcloud i don't see it being an issue.. but really what would be so bad about two strikes, i mean, i pay for this.

hope you enjoy.

new beat with DJ LOMA P on the mic.

Rashaan Roland Kirk "Goodbye Pork Pie Hat"

this is an interesting take on a great song.  goodbye pork pie hat is a mingus song that was originally an instrumental... rashaan turns it into a vocal tribute to lester young.  little more info on wiki but thought i would post.
