Today's download is not a remix but a track that I recorded last night.. I found a batch of J Dilla beats on my macbook and decided to record my vocals on it. I did two versions using the same lyrics, the other version is on Ron Browz & Jim Jones - Pop Champagne but I decided to use the Dilla beat. It's a chilled out track..Enjoy... J-Dilla was a genius..(R.I.P)

Adios!

Monday Remix #2 - My Mercury's in retrograde..My-My-My....

The story behind this weeks remix, I was playing Fight Night Round 4 with my buddy Faquir last month and we were browsing through the soundtrack (props to EA Sports) they really know how to compile the best soundtracks for their games, Hope they pick one of my tracks in future :-)

Anyways, Bloc Party - Mercury tune was playing while the boxer I created was entering the ring his name was Fuego "The Killer" Castillo, (can't remember how I came up with that name but I has a nice ring to it, lol.) I heard that beat, and I immediately wanted to do something on it.
Bought their album entitled "Intimacy" and managed to grab the instrumental and the rest is history.

So here you go, DOWNLOAD
