bmore bounce

Baltimore Bounce (a.k.a. Bmore Bounce a.k.a. Baltimore Club a.k.a. Club Music) is a pretty badass regional style of dance music that formed in the early 90's and has become perfected as of late by DJ Blaqstarr, Solly, and adjunctly by Diplo. It is a style most easily defined as glitchy, fast, repetitive, and bouncy; marked by call and response, percussion, and breakbeats galore! Blaqstarr is known for layering staggered vocals then making beats around those vocal parts, check it out on Hands Up Thumbs Down and XR2, which he produced with Diplo.



Next up is a remix from Diplo obviously influenced by Blaqstarr.


Finally is this dude (actually living in Tel Aviv, Israel and from St. Louis Missouri) Solly remixing the fantastic Shove It by project pat and santigold.


P.S. I switched file servers, let me know if you have any problems!

P.S.S. As fantastic as Slumdog Millionaire was, the Oscar love is a tad bit extreme don't you think?

  1. i don't know if it was extreme, i really enjoyed the sound mixing for the film, it was carefully done along with the score. I think other than best original song...? point taken. it was a tough competition this year- altho i'm glad milk snagged a few oscars
