Yesterday, I realized that everything was out of whack. There were Honorable Mentions that should have replaced people in the Top 50. The order of this list was all wrong. Why is Rashad Smith on it? Should DJ Screw have been ineligible even if he never produced anything? How many of those classic Fresh Prince singles did Jazzy Jeff really produce? And who made the beat to the theme song of "Where In the World is Carmen San Diego?" A list should be in constant flux and totally subjective. The voting sample [...]

![Summertime Mp3s [Mixtape]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3365526_lg.jpg)
So as spring turns to summer, we change our dress, we spend more time outside and we take like a little bit slower (hopefully). Summertime music is very different than other seasons. With the change in our regular activities focused on spending time outside, the music we listen might be more chilled, ambient, less intrusive, fun and bright. Our friends at See The Leaves SF , who kindly made a summertime mixtape for us (see below), described summertime music as anything 90s hip hop. While we agree, we'd like to suggest a few other tracks, while also including some [...]
![FREQUENCY | DJ JAZZY JEFF & SKILLS LIVE! [TICKET GIVEAWAY]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3131666_lg.jpg)
Download audio file (10-live-at-union-square-nov.- 1986.mp3) Frequency is @ it again with the greatest DJ (IMHO) to ever touch the 12s & 22s... the magnificent JAZZY JEFF!! I've seen the man 2 different times & both times my mind was blown out my damn head! Plus they added legendary DJ's Apollo, Sake 1 & Whooligan to the mix & the ever so fresh Fran Boogie controlling the crowd. Oh did I mention that Skillz will be backing up the magnificent on his set? Kill yourself if you [...]

Well, it has been a little while, hasn't it? I sort of had a spell of blog fatigue there coupled with a spurt of seasonal affective social networking withdrawal, but really I've just been too busy. Yeah, yeah, everyone's busy but for those few loyal readers/family members here's a litany of excuses: I have a new job. Well, not a new job per se, but a new contract. A lovely, long term, stable contract. Tenure track. Serenity. With that new job, however, comes new responsibilities and new expectations. Establishing a research program, supervising graduate [...]
The new Art vs. Science EP came out last Friday and holy moley, it's terrible. What the hell happened? "Magic Mountain" is bloody crap. You know, ever since I first Art vs. Science I've been hooked, that is until the other day when I heard this latest single. It's really quite shameful, and so very depressing. The DCUP remix isn't all that bad, but you really can't make shit smell like anything other than shit no. Download: Magic Fountain (DCUP Remix) - Art vs. Science (Right Click, Save As) [...]
What do you get when you take two of the best mix tape DJs in the game and a whole bunch of summer anthems, and lock them in a room together? The soundtrack to BBQ season, that's what . That's right folks...the gang over at UNDRCRWN (the same geezers who bought you DJ Jazzy Jeff's stellar Michael Jackson tribute mix He's The King, I'm The DJ last year) are back at it, linking up with JJ once again and drafting the mighty Mick Boogie to get in on [...]
To celebrate the sun finally coming out in the Midwest, here are a few odes to summer -perfect for porch sittin' and pool-side sippin'. The Aggrolites – Reggae Summertime Ice Cube – My Summer Vacation Neon Indian – Deadbeat Summer Of Montreal – Oslo In The Summertime DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince – Summertime Kolohe Kai – Cool Down Jimi Hendrix – Long Hot Summer Night [...]
So my schedule has been all over the place lately, including a trip up to New England where I stayed with some family friends who had no wireless and used dial-up (see: computer equivalent of the stone age). I also missed the past two mailbags. I chose not to write the first one because the submissions were that bad, but the most recent was just because I've been in the middle of internet-less New Hampshire. SO, because I feel like I owe VacayNation something special, here is the most epic post of my Vacay career: El Gingero's VacayAwards. [...]
This One's For Cody come from Newport Beach in California. They make a style which can only be refereed to as "party electro". It's combination dirty electro used to make bootlegs of some of the most popular pop songs going around. TOFC know what it takes to make kids flock to the dance-floor and although outside of Cali they're new to a lot of us, the boys have already made a name for themselves opening for the likes of Super Mash Bros, placing first in votes in a T-Pain Remix contest, becoming residents for popular electro event Get Bent! and [...]
Vannacht gaat de klok weer een uur vooruit, op zondagochtend om 2 uur. DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince, het alter ego de acteur/zanger Will Smith hebben met Summertime een van de bekendste zomerhits op hun naam staan. Een bijna onopgemerkte melodie en zachte klanken maken dit een perfect achtergrondnummer voor de zwoele zomeravond. De tekst over een buurtbarbeque zoals je ze alleen in de VS ziet geeft het een sfeer van onbezorgdheid. Ik denk dat dat een van de grootste krachten van het liedjes is. Het doet je je zorgen van alledag vergeten. Scarlett [...]
Happy Halloween guys and ghouls! I'm sure you're all ready to get a good scare in you tonight and face your nightmares. You know, like the fear of getting so wasted with your friends and waking up next to the really fat chick from the party. Ahhhhhh!!! haha, j/k. So to help you get in the Halloween spirit I'm going to be posting some of my favorite Halloween music throughout the day. This joint comes from the dynamic duo DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Price. You've got the body/ [...]
Originally, I was planning to bring back the Friday Showstravagnza today, our weekly rundown of the best weekend shows happening in Halifax, which has been M.I.A. for a while. The was my plan, but instead I spent last night carving this Lionel Ritchie pumpkin: I think you'll agree that my time was spent wisely. However, there's one show I want to mention: the immortal DJ Jazzy Jeff is coming to town to play something called Haliween '09 with the also (locally) immortal Skratch Bastid. [...]
Michael Jackson's death earlier this year resulted in a huge wave of tributes in all shapes and sizes. Now, the one and only DJ Jazzy Jeff has got in on the act (better late than never), teaming up with clothing label UNDRCRWN to release a free, 49 track Michael Jackson mix tape entitled He's The King, I'm The DJ. According to Jazzy's website, He's The King, I'm The DJ "is a combination of popular favorites and rare gems from the King of Pop. It takes listeners on a musical journey by opening [...]
It's the time of year again - that magical, innocent time when stuffing your face with sugary goodness until your stomach needs to be pumped and wearing slutty outfits are encouraged (I'm personally brainstorming a slutty dinosaur-riding jesus costume). Whether you plan to throw a party, watch plenty of awesome movies, or just head out on the streets to openly roll your eyes at the plethora of
Im a huuuge mashup fan, but its rare that we ever post them on Earmilk. So I was checking out the archives today and came across this..the Hood Internet mashup of Billie Jean and Wildcat, instantly rekindled my love for this joint and couldn't stop myself from posting. The King of pop himself, Michael Jackson , and the greatest eleontronic duo out of NY, RATATAT , why I didn't put it up earlier.. I'll never know. This shit is so ill your brain will straight explode. If you do, or don't already know, Hood Internet are [...]
DJ STV SLV - Free Control Ocho [ mp3 ] Kid Sister feat Pitbull VS Phonat ABX - Summer Circuit [ mp3 ] DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince VS Daft Punk our boys from da hood are always on the spot
I started out today writing about Woodstock since it's the 40th anniversary, but for some reason I kept getting distracted by 80's/early 90's Hip-Hop/R&B & I couldn't focus on the post so I will do that one tomorrow. Also, if your curious about the top 250 albums of all-time & why i didn't post it last week it's because the math doesn't work with ten for the rest of the year so i took a week off & they'll be back up this week. There's something inherently beautiful about 80's music. It isn't especially profound or life altering, [...]
The fact that you're reading this (unless it's October and you only now came across this post) probably means you're not sitting on a beach, a lake, or a river. Like me. I'm sitting at a desk. A fan pointed at me, the thermometer tells me it's 35C outside. Here are a few tracks to gently transport you away, away, away from where you are to where you want to be. And if you're already there?
