About a year and a half ago, during some oddly warm days of late Winter/early Spring I was crashing at Jess Jubilee’s apartment in Williamsburg. I found it hilarious that pretty much at the very moment when it became short sleeve weather outside, the ice cream trucks began blaring down the streets as if they’d been impatiently idling in garages ever since late September. That afternoon I made a track called Softee’s Theme; a pretty simple Bmore edit of a popular ice cream truck song. This afternoon in Philly I heard one go by and thought about playing it out again.. which I may or may not do, but you should grab it if you want it!

Extra points if anyone can tell me where the vocals are sampled from..

I’m loving the different directions the Bmore peeps are taking things. There’s vocal-driven tracks from Say Wut, DJ Sega and the Brick Bandits crew are killin it with crazy drum programming and mad “what!”’s, and DJ King Tutt’s exploring the area between electro and techno with a distinctly club feel to it. DJ Will Roc’s latest stuff hasn’t really fit into any particular camp; his stuff has been a lot more light (not that this is bad, check my Mishka mix for his track Piano Man). He just posted up a track called The Definition of Bounce, which takes a page from King Tutt’s book but synthesizes things with Will Roc’s more melodic approach for a real nice track. It’s a bit more of a DJ tool than it is a song but hey, that’s not bad either!
