Omar LinX - "The Wild" - Song of the Day - [6-25-15]
Today we have the latest installment from a kick ass hip-hop lyricist Omar LinX called "The Wild." This video is done in a very artsy fashion using a style of animation similar to abstract paintings. You may have heard the name Omar LinX from his collaborations with Zeds Dead and many others. He has an in-your-face style of rhyming, almost like he is constantly battle rapping. He is very clever in coming up with similes and comparisons. You can check out more from Omar LinX on his official soundcloud page here.

Zeds Dead - "Demons" - Song of the Day - 4/5/15
Today's song of the day is a classic from the Canadian based duo Zeds Dead. Since coming out with a very much dubstep sound they have transformed their music that reaches out to many other sub-genres of electronic music. This track comes from the album titled Hot Sauce that has numerous other popular songs that are still played out today. This album is one of the few albums that was put out by Mad Decent and you can be sure that they were happy to back it. You never know what Zeds Dead will come out with next. Definitely keep an eye out for Hooks & DC (stage names) as they haven't dropped an official album since last July and seem to be on a schedule for putting out a new album every year. I've included the official YouTube video below as well because it's pretty damn awesome. WHO'S ZED?

Zeds Dead's "Altered States Tour" & Krewella's "Get Wet Tour" @ 1st Bank Center - Broomfield, CO [10/11/13] (Review)
A Review By: Kenny Emmer
The famed Zed’s Dead “Altered States Tour” and Krewella’s “Get
Wet Tour” combined into one and smashed the 1st Bank Center in
Broomfield, CO this weekend put on by AEG Live. If there’s one phrase that best describes the
show, it is in fact“Altered States.” Don’t worry, Krewella, the people
definitely got wet and sweaty. The level of energy was off the charts all night
long. But I say ‘Altered States’ is a very accurate way to describe the show
simply becauseof theslew of artists spanning multiple genres, as well as the
ever-changing pace of each artist’s sets, specifically the headliners. The sold
out show featured Branchez, DJ Green Lantern, Candyland, Colorado native Paper
Diamond, Krewella, and Zed’s Dead. Seven Lions was also scheduled to perform
but unfortunately could not attend due to illness, providing for extended sets
from Candyland and Paper Diamond. Although Branchez and Green Lantern were
limited to only a 30 minute set, their festival trap and club bangers lit up
the crowd preparing everyone for one long and rowdy night in the arena. Candyland
took to the stage to play for an additional 45 minutes, keeping the crowd in
high gear. “That fro though.” I know I wasn’t the only one thinking it... Josie
Martin and Ethan Davis have come a long way over the year, being recognized as
some of the top electro producers in the game right now. Candyland also played
at the incredible Red Rocks Amphitheater in Morrison, CO at this past year’s
Global Dance Festival. Paper Diamond followed up with 45 minutes of bass and
surprisingly a lot of trap music. Seems even this Pretty Lights Music member
has love for the genre. It was when Krewella took the stage that the inevitable feeling of altered states really took hold.
Krewella Posing w/Their Newest Album, "Get Wet"
As the lovely sisters of Krewella,
Jahan and Yasmine Yousaf, took to the stage, microphones in hand standing upon the
towering crystalline ‘Volcano’ DJ booth manned by KrissTrindl, the crowd
erupted. Krewella played their hits off their most recent album, ‘Get Wet, as
well as some older tracks from their ‘Play Hard’ EP. They moved from genre to
genre but not too hastefully. They began strong, intertwining their hard
hitting electro-house and dubstep tracks, whilst Jahan and Yasmine sang live
vocals to the audience, which isn’t something these girls have normally done in
the past. Trindl mixed brilliantly, with some occasional aid by the women. And
the most surprising aspect of their set was the hard style segment. This genre
has a very specific fan-base and has taken some harsh criticism in the past,
especially from fans who purely obsess over bass heavy house and/or dubstep
music. But the way Krewella incorporated exclusive tracks with some brilliant
mixing, they eased into a segment of hard style that came nowhere near to
failing the crowd, but rather cranked the energy level even higher than it
already was. It was a pretty incredible sight to see. Overall, Krewella
impressed the hell out of me. It’s no shock that they’ve become as big as they
have. If there’s one thing to be noted about the bass
music scene in Colorado, it’s that many artists of the genre absolutely love
coming here. Maybe it’s our cloudy skies, beautiful sunsets, epic mountains. Or
maybe it’s because of our venues, and the unbelievably passionate, faithful,
and rowdy-beyond-all-repair masses of fans that make coming here so enjoyable.
In a time of dubstep mania, Colorado was referred to as the dubstep capital by
nearly all of the big names in the genre. And in the case of Zed’s Dead, there
is no argument there.
Our crowd loves this duo, and have ever since their
beginnings. Ever since one of their first shows in the state at the Cervantes
Masterpiece Ballroom nearly 3 years ago, Zed’s Dead have made it a priority to
make at least one stop in the state when touring. In the past they have
headlined Red Rocks, the New Year’s Decadence show at the Colorado Convention
Center in Denver, The Ogden Theater, Belly Up in Aspen, and other venues around
the state. And they came this time around with plenty of love. As I go back to
my statement about ‘Altered States’, I have to say that Zed’s Dead nailed it.
They created a wave of altered perceptions by delving into classics as old as
several years, moving into the new and exclusive, switching between melancholy moods
and fast paced heavy hitters for the bassheads, and, like Krewella, staying
consistent and not over-killing it on the switch-ups. Zed’s Dead was easily the
highlight of the show. And their occasional commentary consisted almost
entirely of love and respect for the state of Colorado. The crowd was at their
loudest during these moments. Its nights like these that make me proud to be a
part of this community and the whole electronic music scene. Altered States and
Get Wet Live was an absolute killer of a show. And it’s one of the first to
grace the 1st Bank Center this season; with many more to come, we’re
already off to a great start.
