Of all the times I’ve sat in my studio to make beats recently, I’ve been feeling kind of conflicted. I sit there and look at my keyboard, my mpc, and my computer, and before I even start I wonder what kind of direction I want to move in (in general). DJing clubs over the past year has gotten me into feeling like I want to make some more fast paced stuff, and lately I’ve just been appreciating house and electronic driven music a lot more. Here are a couple of tracks I received lately that kind of sum up where I’m stuck at, production wise.
Right now I’m somewhere between the beat on this joint by Lil Kim (Chillin Tonight) (DIRTY)

Aaaand the club production on this one by Pitbull (Levantate (Get Up)) (DIRTY)

So yeah, kind of reflects how I feel on the weekends too. Before I go DJ I find myself saying “I just wanna hang out tonight instead of work” but then I realize that DJing isn’t work, and when I get the club going I feel like screaming “everybody get up!!!!”
Music is awesome.
