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.

Persian Wedding Song Remix (in Farsi)

A couple of weekends ago i DJed a wedding party for Sarge and Leyla.  Leyla's mom brought me a couple of CDs with some persian wedding music to play.  I thought one of them was pretty interesting to i kinda worked it into a beat i was working on.

The lyrics are in farsi so i don't know what is being said and i'm not sure that the arrangement is in a way that the lyrics make any sense now.  i do think it sounds kinda cool though.  When i put this together i did it because i like the idea of blending different musical styles together, i sincerely hope this isn't offensive or rude towards anyone.

Some of the tricks i tried to use involved some grouping of effects in a timeline.  Using a simpler in a bassline and warping and cutting in arrangement mode.  there's a couple filter delays in there, oh and i used a corpus effect on the bass drums after i wired them through their own audio channel.. that was a trick i learned in a tutorial from dubspot.

The wedding was great by the way and both Leyla and her mom are adorable.  Thanks for the tracks.....

It's Time For the Percolator (dj jesster Re-Edit)

always loved the song "percolator" by cajmere.  on the flight back from LGA today i put most of this together.  i finished it off back here in atlanta.   it's short and sweet, clocking in at 2:00 min on the nose.  the breakdown with the high-pitched synth got the auto-pan xformer trick which is one of the tricks i got from abe duque in the dubspot workshop.  unfortunately i didn't get to say "thanks" to him in person after the class, i had my head in the apc when he took off.
