DtttC! what's the 411 remix?

New remix album from Don't Talk To The Cops! See DtttC! at Bumbershoot on Saturday, 1pm @ Fisher Green!





The remixers, in order of appearance:

Rubicon 7 Swag Treated Treated Swag (Rubicon 7 remix) (Trashed Contest Winner!) Rubicon 7 is the creative hybrid of Elizabeth Thompson’s cutting-edge DJ sensibilities together with the production and composition of the classically trained Brandon Scott. Their unique collaboration results in an unmistakable style that blurs the lines around the typical genres of electronic dance music.

Wolf Couture Big Ass Head (Wolf Couture remix) Wolf Couture is a creation of Kevin Ross (a.k.a. DJ Teenwolf) the founder and former dj/producer/songwriter for the critically-panned Brooklyn band, Ninjasonik. Inspired by a mix of Based God rants, internet memes and an all-out love/hate relationship with the current state of “hip-pop” culture, Wolf Couture bravely makes music that has been known to irritate/entertain listeners through its deranged use of repetitive lyrics and bizarre concepts.

The Major Cities Tip Toe Right By Em (tmc remix) The Major Cities is the solo musical project of Joshua Rule.

Keyboard Kid Someday I’m Gonna Be Rich (XXX Bvsed Mix – Keyboard Kid x DtttC!) KEYBOARD KID IS A MUSIC PRODUCER FROM SEATTLE,WA. MAIN PRODUCER OF LIL B THE BASEDGOD KNOWN FOR MY VERY UNIQUE AND FUTURISTIC SPIN ON HIP-HOP AND BEING A PIONEER PRODUCER FOR LIL B’s BASED MOVEMENT. ALSO Featured On Websites Like TheFader.com, Grammy.com, ComplexMag.com, Mishka n More!

Mash Hall Swag Treated Treated Swag (MASH HALL LOVE FAMILY THICKER THAN BLOOD remix) MASH HALL LOVE FAMILY THICKER THAN BLOOD

Astronomar Girls Buy Me Drinks (Astronomar remix) Without exaggeration, Astronomar is one of the most exciting new producers out there. There’s an intangible uniqueness to everything he does, and a strong hip-hop influence which give his tracks a hardcore, but incredibly fun vibe. Since his first release, Had To Move On, on Neoteric’s Turned On Vol.2 last summer, he’s released on Mad Decent imprint Jeffrees, and Top Billin’ (Style of Eye proclaimed his release the best ever from the label). The biggest names, from Diplo to Crookers to A-trak, have supported his tracks nightly, while we wait for the rest of the world to catch on. This is that next shit.

djblesOne Goin Back To Chicago (djblesOne STR8 88 remix) djblesOne STR8 88 remix taking “I’m Going Back To Chicago” way back to 88 & the Chicago Underground. Hip House forever, shout out to Fast Eddie.

Suspence I Like Nerds (Suspence remix) Former DJ & Producer for The Saturday Knights

OCnotes Tattoo My Name (OCnotes atlantis lounge remix) OCnotes (born Otis Calvin III on June 27, 1985) in Tucson, Arizona, is a Seattle-based DJ, multi-instrumentalist (12), songwriter, film maker, and music producer. His discography includes 20 of his own original projects & a host of DJ mix tapes and music videos, plus collaborations with a myriad of artists.

Heart Island Swag Treated Treated Swag (Heart Island remix) Heart Island is the solo project of Whitney Gould from the Seattle band SPORTS.

djblesOne Guess I’m Strange (djblesOne in Paris remix) Originally from the 1st LP “regular show” this remix by djblesOne is in Paris. Puff Daddy thought he told me that we don’t stop.

OCnotes - What's Your Sign

A free precursor to his much awaited September release. OC continues to share all of his music with us, and I cannot be more thankful. DOWNLOAD HERE



"Its been a minute since ive dropped some music. I’m sittin on a lot of material right now but im waiting to drop each piece in its proper fashion. This EP is somethin like a pre teaser for my september release which i consider one of my best works. This, like most of my works is an experimental piece of sorts, an adventure through sound, a melting pot of genres compiled into an astrological masterpiece. Whats Your Sign?"

Xmas Eve @ Moe Bar

I will be serving up some of the finest holiday drinks including the world famous, one of a kind Greg Nog. OCnotes will be providing the music for the evening. We will be showing Christmas movies. He will be showing Emerald City Sequence. We will all be kicking it, drinking and being marry. Santa will probably stop by and there might just be all types of holiday miracles! Let's party, Scrooges!

OCnotes - Emerald City Sequence

If you haven't been paying attention since July, the beat maestro himself, OCnotes has reworked "The Wiz" visually and musically. Even after all the uploading drama of copyright issues you can finally take a look and listen online. If you haven't watched this or listened in, sit back, relax, and enjoy. I think the idea behind this project is original, innovative, and fresh. Great fucking work. CLICK HERE to watch.

OFS Geniuses

This what The Stranger had to say about three of OFS' own geniuses. I must add I consider everybody that I fucks with a genius. I am so blessed to be surrounded by such amazing human beings on a daily basis. It is my honor to work with you all and a huge pleasure to call you my friends and my family. Much respect from NJ to SEA, OFS!


NATHAN QUIROGA
One of the more surprising transformations of the year was watching Mad Rad's Buffalo Madonna—a man known for scaling the sides of a festival stage at Sasquatch! a few years back and rapping from above the stage's roof—transform into a subdued memoirist publishing under his given name. A confessional essay Nathan Quiroga read aloud at several literary events this year, later published in The Stranger, was daring, dark, and rueful. Quiroga is of the mind that readings aren't as alluring as they need to be, and this year plans to start a reading series in alleys at twilight, with writers up on ladders, and beer, and possibly music. -CHRISTOPHER FRIZZELLE


OC NOTES
This year alone, OC Notes (Otis Calvin III), a local hiphop producer, has released four superb albums: Metal Chocolates (with the highly regarded rapper Rik Rude), The New Generation (embracing the new age), Medicine, and Secret Society. As a local hiphop album, Secret Society (the first of OC's rock-influenced recordings, the other being The New Generation) is second only to Shabazz Palaces' Black Up—and it's a close second. (True, if THEESatisfaction had released their sophomore album this year, Secret Society would be third—but, again, a very close third). OC Notes, who recently moved into Vitamin D's former recording place in Pioneer Square, is a genius, and like all true geniuses, he is generous. OC Notes is a pure giver; he is always giving beats to this city. -CHARLES MUDEDE


KATIE KATE
Katie Kate is a rapper, producer, and classically trained pianist. She studied music at Cornish and is currently a member of the Out for Stardom crew (Mad Rad, Fresh Espresso, and Metal Chocolates). Recently she completed her debut album, Flatland, which we're hoping will be released this year—and the album's production is solid and her range (singing, rapping, beat-making, keyboarding) impressive. Indeed, Katie Kate could easily become one of the top local producers—a realm that's screaming for more female talent. Her hiphop beats for "Totebag" and "Body Out" are first-rate, and the techno/new wave of "Copenhagen" and "Houses" is beautifully cold, dark, and cosmopolitan. Katie has a muscular sense of composition or design; her music is carefully built, part by part, with this part corresponding with that part, and this melodic line corresponding with that melodic line. Her music is in the details. -CHARLES MUDEDE

OC Notes - Secret Society

"My Hard drive died and I lost the trackouts and files to this album. I managed to find half of the tracks on a jump drive, thank god. These are the ones that made it. R.I.P. to the other half of this record."

Icing - Linus Aristotle Remix



OC Notes has put a spin on last year's hit with THEESatisfaction with a version that features harp and glockenspiel. As I enjoy the original better, this one definitely is perfect on this slow, relaxed, snow filled morning.
