What Lonely Girls Do

The White Panda is on Sparty Tunes yet again. That obviously has to say something about them. It proves they are beyond talented at what they do. This tune they have here is awesome. Ocean Lab has the instrumentals of the tune while Lil Jon has his "What You Gonna Do" chorus and Eminem has a verse from Drake's "Forever". The collaboartion of this is genious and provides for an awesome sounding song. You would never thing this was a mashup. Check this one out. Enjoy!

DJ Medley Interview

Earlier this week I had a chance to ask DJ Matt Medley a few questions. His mixtapes have been some of the best electronic and electro house I've heard and his remixes are really good as well. When it comes to the city of Toronto's DJ's, DJ Matt Medley is one of the first names that always pops up. The city of T.O. is very lucky to have someone as dedicated to their city as they do. Having residencies at Strange Love and Andy's Poolhall, DJ Medley is able to show his stuff week in and week out. He also deejays a ton of special events. Check out this interview with DJ Medley!

Sparty Tunes: What advice do you have for young and aspiring dj's?

DJ Medley: There's a lot more to deejaying than deejaying. It's really all about producing, promoting, designing, branding, blogging, managing and networking. All that stuff will get one further than the actual mixing part of deejaying will. Especially producing because anyone that takes a little time and invests a little money can dj now. You gotta have original material to make yourself stand out. You don't have to be breaking the charts on beatport or anything. Something as simple as having your own re-edits will set you apart from the masses, improve your sets and most importantly, spread your name. A lot of deejays won't have the time to listen to your hour long mixtape, but they'll always be searching for more edits, blends and remixes from their sets. And they'll have to remember your name to type it into the search field of their Serato/Ableton/Traktor.

Sparty Tunes: Do you see yourself in Toronto forever?

DJ Medley: T.O. for life! I don't ever plan on leaving. I love this city and love my life here. It's one of the best places in the world to be a dj, this city has embraced the culture more than many. It's hard to find a restaurant, art show, lounge or event in T.O. without a dj at it. Besides, Andy Poolhall, Strange Love, The Social, Wrongbar, Mod Club, Tattoo and Footwork are all right here in Toronto, why go elsewhere when the best clubs in the world to spin at are right here.

Sparty Tunes: Dance Like You F*ck has been a huge hit, so I got to ask when's the next mixtape?

DJ Medley: Thanks man, I'll probably do another one next August for the 2 year anniversary of the club night. I know... too long. I take my time with my mixtapes, I always want them to be overflowing with original material and filled with twice as many songs as other djs mixtapes. Rest assured, it'll be worth the wait.

Sparty Tunes: Who's better, You or Tay'more? =)

DJ Medley: Come on now, silly question. Tay'more blows me out the water everytime! Style, looks and skills, my girl has got it all. I'm a very lucky man. We're working on some serious collaborative stuff.

Sparty Tunes: Who is your favorite dj?

DJ Medley: Tay'more of course! And, I'm also feeling Fake Blood, Holy Ghost and Aeroplane a lot right now.

Hold The Line

DJ Risk One has sent me over a few tracks that will make you bounce. It's been a little while since he's released something, but you know I'm always excited when I get a hold of his tracks! The first one is a little remix of Dorrough's "Ice Cream Paint Job". It is slowed down a little with a nice shuffle bounce topped on it. The second one is also sure to be a hit. The tune of Dead Prez's "Hip Hop" in the background has got tweeters going crazy with some sick vocals from Major Lazer. Check them out. Enjoy!

Dopeboy

Adam Tensta's "Dopeboy" has been one of my favorites for a little while and here are 2 remixes that really prove it. I discovered Adam Tensta through the Neon Black GT remix and this other remix, Al Azif, was the latest remix of the song. The first one is a fast paced remix that pops straight at you and the second is more a dub-step remix of it. Both tunes are sure to pump that bass in your speakers, so I hope you like. Enjoy!

DJ Hero Tunes

Ok so I decided that I would take a listen to some of the tunes on DJ Hero. Now I was not going to listen to all 93 of the tracks, but I did listen to a good number of them, probably around 20 or so. I found 2 of them I thought were pretty good, so I'm bringing them to you. The first is Fedde Le Grand vs. Sandy Rivera, and the second is The Killers vs. Eric Prydz. Both these songs have been specially remixed for the game, but I've been enjoying them here in my room.
