SURPRISE! Deadmau5 and Ludacris.


"Check out this mix pilgrim!"
-The Great John Wayne

(ofcourse he would listen to deadmau5)

DJ Macabre and I just got done DJing for a friend's surprise birthday party. We played a little bit of everything to satisfy certain groups of the audience. Everyone has a favorite band...

Here is a small but fun live music bit from tonight. Crossing Ludacris with Deadmau5, this mix makes me hear the lyrics to "Blueberry Yum Yum" in a new way. I was excited by this accident, and decided to record it for your enjoyment.

DUB'S DAY: This One's For You... Scheller.

Hey everybody,


Me again. Just dropping by to give you a pleasant wednesday gift.

^
There it is...

This dubstep mix is honor of Scheller "the schell" McSteinenschell.

You know who you are...

I can't quite remember all the artists in this one, but i'm sure theres some La Roux, Prodigy, Zeds Dead, Rusko, Caspa, A-Trak, Yeah Yeah Yeah's, and Sublime. I've always wanted to post an ALL DUB mix. This one's exactly 23 minutes and 23 seconds, so I titled it Dub's Day 2323. This was so much fun.


Except I can just give you the link to download it STAT!

"I'm the Lizard King, I can do anything..." Master Mix Mondays


Mega Master Mix Monday Present's:

THE DOORS
VS
CHEW FU MANJAMANGO
VS
BOSSAROCKER
VS
THIEVERY CORPORATION

(That was a mouthful...)


"Is everybody in?"

Couldn't have said it better, myself. Jim Morrison, a.k.a. the "Lizard King," lies in our hearts as an American classic. His wild, spontaneous, addictive personality was both his doing, and un-doing. Alcohol grabbed a hold of Jim and twisted him into something he had never intended to be. Shortly after The Doors produced "Riders on the Storm," Jim escaped to Paris in order to take his words more seriously. Morrison felt that his life of fame did not cater to his "inner-poet."

Thats his story, in my words.

Now enjoy the MASTER MIX:

Tearing Jack's Beats


My favorite artist of the week is Jack Beats! Their remixes have created new classic-electro tracks from older timeless hits. All of these remixes display the crazy, unpredictable style of Jack Beats.


This Saturday night I had the pleasure of enlightening several people with the musical styling of Jack Beats. They seem like talented producers and I always hear great things about their work. I recorded a 7-8 minute-long Jack Beats mix entitled, "Fun With Jack's Beats." This is the product of my most sincere efforts to do this duo justice...

Wait... What Happened Thursday Night?


Marquette is famous for two things...

Its law school...

and

Our long-standing tradition of "Thirsty Thursday" parties!


The first week of school brings little to no academic responsibilities, leaving us with 1,500 Watts of stereo equipment and a lot of time on our hands. So we took advantage of the time at hand only to create one of the best Thursdays yet...


Here's one of my live mixes from that same night:

...Tiger Shirts and Mash-Ups...


Last semester, I had an English professor that really liked ^this Tiger shirt. Now my best friends both have this SAME professor for English this semester. I encourage them both to not only read my music blog and jam to the tracks, but they should also flaunt this shirt in many an English class.

Ladies and Gentlemen...

I present the first-ever Official Music Blog of DJ Shamen. I will be posting original Shamen tracks as well as some mixed tracks that I pick out. All of these mixes are rough copies as well. In other words, these songs are the first live versions that I created.

enjoy the first few mixes of the semester.
