Sin City

Probably the sickest party I've DJ'ed. Happy Birthday Ben.

Fog Goes Hard

2009-11-20T02:44:00.000-05:00

This shit went pretty hard tonight. Someone at 96 Central decided to get a sick fog machine and that completely made everything 50 times better. Walking through the floor was an experience in itself with the lasers through the fog. Also I felt like my mix went extremely well. Not accepting requests helped alot since I can easily find and record a set of backbeats and percussion clips

NO REQUESTS

2009-11-14T14:15:00.000-05:00

DJed 10 Prosper again for some guys 21st birthday party. It was pretty hot. I'm sure people enjoyed it, but I'm starting to learn taking requests and getting off my usual "flow" does not make me happy. I can't drop sick beats if every 5 seconds you want to hear Miley Cirus people! I still ended up DJing for a whopping 5 hours, Lol. Well tonight things are going to be better, I'm sure. Looking

I don't know about you... but I can officially say the comeback is in right now. And I'm jealous of New York. Someone's taking a day trip there this weekend... Cigar Smoke in New York by jrab227

"WHAT IS THAT BLUE SHIT!?"

2009-08-22T16:36:00.007-04:00

Memorable quotes aside... this party was sick. Props to the Bombsquad for throwing "The Party Of The Summer". Nothing topped that. Also, I might be known officially to some as "DJ Bartender" but I assure you, I will remain behind my APC40. See you space cowboys...

"Twerkfest '09!"

2009-08-16T09:41:00.004-04:00

Who throws parties in residential area? Honestly, I've never seen a decent house party in all my few years of living here; its well known you have to leave to Philly, or some other spot to get your twerk on. But last night was too sick. Drinks were good, people were good, no drama... I guess its the coming of something new and different, and it only makes me love this town even more.Also, if you

So about that Saturday night...

2009-08-15T06:10:00.010-04:00

Well lets start with the bad first. Much love for those girls. Well, two of them anyways. But clearly a guest did not understand the rules. BYOB means bring your own beer. That means, if you didn't bring your own stuff, it isn't yours. Yes, that means the keg does not belong to the house. Yes, you got scalped into paying at the door for an alcohol-less party. Too bad. Read the fine print. Then,

More District 9 Hype

I actually like it. Looks well made. Still mad they didn't work on Halo, which was the original plan.

"I came here to dance, not watch people dance..."

2009-08-10T17:03:00.006-04:00

It's fun not djing at a party, so much so, I might skip a few more. I'm missing out on a lot of fun. Contrary to popular belief, DJing isn't all it's cracked up to be. I stand for 4 hours straight, no breaks, we bring our own beer cause Keystone Light froth is shitty (I think I deserve a few Coronas anyways), the pay is nowhere near worth my time (I put in like... 20-30 hours on Ableton for no

It seems as though the update about last weekend were lost in cyberspace. After sending by email twice, it still hasn't posted. It seems like some other force doesn't want me to post info about it, so I won't. In a nutshell it was a fun night. Nothing too crazy. So the past week I've been looking to produce a decent, ambient soundscape and I ended up with this. Just a little something I wanted to

Jrab Jerk Track

2009-08-01T14:03:00.005-04:00

So I end up waking up around 11am this morning at Andrew's house, and I think... I could really easily make a new jerk song. Especially since I just created an 808 drum rack with some samples I downloaded a while back from a guy who recorded the original 808's on tape ( Download them on his website here ). But anyways, I took a sample from the original New Boys - Jerk song... and an hour later...

"ITS JUST A GAME!" "Hmm... not anymore..."

When this dropped, and I saw this video, I was instantly impressed at the quality of production visually and musically. Considering Disney have recently taken a path down the dark side, visually I see darkness, flourescent lighting, futuristic, with an overall "glow"; something they couldn't really add in the Pirates of the Caribbean series, especially in those movie's dark sections. Musically...

My APC40 DJing Template

2009-07-30T22:34:00.005-04:00

I DJ mostly top 40, b more, fidget, basically whatever drunk college kids dance to. In the template I do not have clips already in the clip section,because I drag and drop tracks from my hard drive on the fly depending on my mood.I expect DJ's who use tracks they bought to not load every song they ever want in the clips, I actually build my clips as I go along. It was really a fix for EQing, but

A Very Chill Weekend

2009-07-26T15:28:00.002-04:00

This weekend I was really focused on taking a break. Pretty much allweek I didn't even get into Ableton that much. But it was all in all a decent weekend. Did some sound engineering with the new EOF class during their talent show. Then did a very yummy barbeque where I just made a playlist and got my eat on. And me and Andrew picked up a new set of speakers, that aren't powered. Classic phantom

What a party!

2009-07-18T14:05:00.003-04:00

I mixed like fire last night at Hopper and his crew's Highlighter banger up at the old Rutgers NB. At least I felt that way... I'm amazed what a little "liquid encouragement" can do for a DJ. I had a great time though, me and Andrew ripped it. We actually went too hard. I had the tracks bumping beyond clipping and before I realized it (cause it just kept telling myself to turn it up higher. Lol),

Just me practicing up a bit for this weekend's parties with some very summer sounds from artists like Akon, Pitbull, Flo-Rida, and Sean Kingston with a tribal house flavor and a nice delay-pan-reverb-lpf I built in Ableton. >>ENJOY<<

A Break From Club...

2009-07-10T00:14:00.004-04:00

Staying a little true to my instrumental roots, I spent some time listening to the Halo soundtracks over the past few days. The "drone" ambient classical is a genre I can really relate to because of it's mellowness. Martin O'Donnell and Micheal Salvatori did a wonderful job scoring these tracks, and everyone who plays Halo appreciated. So after a while I decided to make something like it, just so

Some pics taken by the dude V (Link there) at the house party on Saturday. This guy's a beast. That house party bumped well, with me and Andrew on deck of course. Dom was there too as our backup just in case too many girls came through. All in all good night. Shout outs to Ben Hopper for the invite. We'll probably be back...I also spent my Monday not at work, my boss wasn't in so there was no
