I'm starting a new series called "Egg's Fun Blends." I make a lot of blends, but hardly release them. On each release, there will be 5-7 blends, one full version for listening, one short version for spinnin'.

Here's the sample breakdown:

Ahmed - Back In The Day + Ice Cube - Today Was A Good Day

CeCe Peniston - Finally + Kelis - Acapella

R. Kelly & Keri Hilson - Number One + The O'Jays - Love Train

B.o.B & Bruno Mars - Nothin' On You + Eric B & Rakim - Paid In Full + PM Dawn - Set Adrift On Memory Bliss + The World's Famous Supreme Team - Hey DJ

Aaliyah & Timbaland - Are You That Somebody + Major Lazer - Keep It Goin' Louder

Dead Prez & Pete Rock - Warzone + Sister Sledge - He's The Greatest Dancer



Hopefully these work for some people. I already have a few more made for the next one. After the release of my new album, I should be able to pump this stuff out more quickly. Enjoy.

CLUB CROOKS: Saturday May 22nd @ Crown Room: Matt Nelkin!

The Club Crooks, DJ Izm & Easter Egg are proud to announce that we will be having Portland's own, DJ Matt Nelkin as our guest for the evening of Saturday May 22, 2010 @ Crown Room in the Old Town/Chinatown sector of PDX.

Collecting records since '94, Matt has established himself in the city as host to the radio show Liquid Beat on KPSU since back in '97, airing on Tuesdays from 7-8 pm and on Eugene's KLCC from 11pm-1am on Saturdays. Also.. 3.5 years ago Matt played an integral role in the coordination and music selection as one of the Rock Box DJs (at Holocene) on a monthly basis. Last year, Matt released a 12' vinyl EP alongside Rock box DJs, Dundiggy & DJ Kez full of excellent remixes that are very club worthy.

After last months highly successful April Club Crooks at Crown Room with Baltimore Club legend, DJ Scottie B & Seattle's Tigerbeat, we take it back to a local focus on Portland party rockers, where Izm, Egg, & Nelkin will annihilate the dance floor with certified club bangers, Hip Hop classics, Crunk, Hyphy, and of course Baltimore Club. This will be a no cover event. we hope to see you!

Simple commercial edits


Sometimes tracks need intros, sometimes they need to be shortened, sometimes they need to be blended. These are all very simple edits I put together to help my DJ game. I cut a lot of the songs short because I like to mix quick sometimes, but that's just the earlier edits, with the more recent ones, I leave the whole song intact. I'll make more, just have been busy with the computer crash and all.

Young Money - Bedrock (Intro, no Nicki, extended outro)

Clipse - Champion (Intro)
Gucci Mane - Choppa Shoppin (Intro)
Jay Z - Empire State of Mind ft. Alicia Keys (Shortcut)
V.I.C. - G5 ft. Rich Kids (Intro, shortcut)
Snoop - Gangsta Luv ft. The Dream (Intro, shortcut)
Rihanna - Hard ft. Jeezy (Intro, shortcut)
2Pac - How Do You Want It? ft. K-Ci & JoJo (Intro, shortcut)
Chalie Boy - I Look Good (Intro, shortcut)
T.I. - I'm Back (Intro)
B.O.B. - Nothing On You ft. Bruno Mars (Intro)
Notorious B.I.G. - Sky Is The Limit ft. 112 (Intro)
Snoop - That Tree ft. Kid Cudi (Intro)
Aaliyah - Try Again ft. Timbaland (Intro)

Hope these are useful for someone besides me. In the future, I won't be cutting the tracks so short.

Emocrunk: The XX versions w/ DJ Izm


Heyo.. DJ Izm here posting up some indie-ish dance-ish mixes Ive worked on over the past couple months. Ive been using a Macbook Pro with Ableton Live8 and an Akai LPD8 to do these songs.

Instantly falling in love with The XX when I first heard them, I had a vision of dance versions for multiple songs off the CD, I chose Stars and did an uptempo Clubby, Bali Funk, Hip Hop style remix of the quite solemn and chilled out original, using the intro drum loop to 50 Cent's Just a little Bit. Some people say it doesn't work with the song, but I just cant take it out, I like it.

I also did a tripped out version of The XX's Heart Skipped a Beat which Ive got great feedback on.. I stayed with almost the original vibe of the song, kicked it up a notch and drove it into flavor country with some serious chopping,rolling, and editing over a Hip Hop drum loop.

finally on Desperate But Not Serious, I took Adam and the Ants classic 80s song and turned it into a bumpin dance joint utilizing the hypnotic and catchy horns from the original version.

enjoy!

Club Crooks #14: Scottie B & Tigerbeat @ The Crown Room (4/17)


After the Seattle show, we are driving back to the homeland for another bangin' party at The Crown Room! Jeff and I love our party here and it really means a lot to us when the friends and family come out to have a good time. This is easily one of the best clubs in town, it has established itself as a go-to spot and for good reason, all of which you already know or will soon find out.

Our special guests this month are Tigerbeat, who is no strangers to Club Crooks, and the godfather of Baltimore club music, Scottie B! Although, this night will not be limited to Baltimore club music, we always bring you an eclectic variety of the best party music, whether it be rap hits, Miami bass, house, electro, dancehall, old school, hyphy, or down south, you are guaranteed that we will play music that will keep the floor dancing and sweating all night.

Thanks to the good folks at Scion Sessions for making this party possible without denting our wallets too much, we can let you in the doors for FREE if you come before 11 o'clock! If you decide to come after, it is still only $5! If having fun is your thing, then this is where you'll want to be.

Scottie B & Tigerbeat @ Chapel (4/16)


This is the kick off of a 2 day mini party tour that the 4 of us will be doing. We will be starting the weekend off right at The Chapel Bar in Seattle! I can't tell you much about this spot but I do know the homeboy Tigerbeat holds a residency there and I expect good things.

The birth of the blog!

Hello readers, welcome to the Club Crooks blog! Jeff and I were speaking recently and I brought up the idea of a blog to promote and a nice, organized place to put all of our music, and he was all for it, so this is the place you will find any and all DJ Izm & Easter Egg productions, tools, mixtapes, etc. Enjoy!
