Moving to a new blog

I am currently collaborating with my brother on a new blog called The California Classic which will be about sports, music and other entertainment. I will continue my daily music blog post plans I had for this site but will be putting them up on The Cali Classic now. So check out that site which features great sports stories and opinions as well as offering the best music you might not have heard before.

This new blog is going to post multiple times a day so be sure to constantly check out the blog for new updates.

The BLOG is baaaaaaaaaacccccccccccccckkkkkkk!!!

I love music too much not to write about it, so I have decided to bring this blog back into the blogosphere. Most of the music I post will be up-tempo music, hip hop, rock, remixes, and anything I find musically interesting.

I'm going to do posts everyday this time and I'm going to have a different theme for each day of the week. But I need to develop some consistent themes for each day. So here are the themes I have set so far for each day:
  • Mashup Monday - A mashup is a song or composition created by blending two or more songs, usually by overlaying the vocal track of one song seamlessly over the music track of another.
For example one of my favorite mashups:
  • New Music Tuesday - I will present a song that came out that day or within the week of the day I post it. For example Midnight Hour a sorta retro melody by classic rapper Talib Kweli but is really great because of Estelle vocals put on the track (so new there is no youtube video for it yet!)
  • Hump day Wednesday - I honestly couldn't think of any good thing for this day except giving you songs that motivate you to get through the week like this one:

  • Thirsty Thursday - Songs that you listen to once and you just want to hear more. These will be artists who dont have a ton of music released yet like Chiddy Bang.
Here is a song by my favorite group that hasn't released an album yet:
  • Free Friday - Because Friday will always be my favorite day of the week I'm doing whatever song I am just liking the most, whether it be a new song or an oldie. So I offer you one of my all time favorite songs by my all time favorite band, Blink-182:

  • Party it up Saturday - Whenever I think of Saturday's I just think of living it up and having a good time so I bring you songs to party to, so I would give you I gotta feeling by Black Eyed Peas because that's one of my favorite party songs but I will give you a great remix to it instead with Wale and Kid Cudi, two of my favorite rappers who are making it big in the game this year.

So here's Live It Up by Wale featuring Kid Cudi:
  • Smooth Sunday - Just relaxing songs that you can chill out too, heck even work to.
So I offer you one of my favorite songs by Sublime:

Well there you have it, DJ Spnz 2 Fst AKA Zach S-E's weekly music lineup.

Tomorrow I am going to give you another dose of "Party it up" Saturday, let me know what you think of the songs I posted above and if you have any suggestions (for songs, music themes, changes to the blog) please let me know. I love CONSTRUCTIVE cricism.
