Spotlight - Life & Death Productions

This is a new thing I'm doing with the blog. Every couple weeks I'm going to be showcasing an up and coming artist and showcase some of their material. Whether your a DJ, A rapper, A singer, or a Producer and are interested in being showcased, just drop me a line at StreetJMusic@gmail.com with 3-5 of your hottest Songs or Videos, Ill review them and give them a rating. Looking forward to hearing what some of you have up your sleeves.


For the first installment of the Spotlight, I bring to you Tero Jylhä aka Life & Death Productions hailing out of Virrad, Finland. Life & Death Productions is a music production company that provides original Hip hop, Rap, Pop, Rnb, Electronic and Soundtrack instrumentals for artists and companies. Tero Jylhä was born in Helsinki, Finalnd on the 15th of November, 1990. Currently residing in Virrat, he has been specializing in the craft of beat making for a solid five years for more information be sure to visit Soundclick: Life & Death Productions or check him out on his facebook page.

1. Up first is A Bedtime Story. The intro begins with some really nifty piano work, its smooth and gentle and leads perfectly into the drop. The drum pattern compliments the piano work really well. I'm really enjoying how everything comes together for the hook, this beat sounds dramatic and epic, a nice storytelling instrumental, I can picture someone like Nasty Nas on this, but this can be flipped in multiple directions and any emcee with the right touch can make this their own.

2. Next is Full Clip, I'm really enjoying this. Fresh, the selection of instruments is perfect, the melody at the beginning is nice and the drop comes in and sets the tone immediately. This is Dark & Gritty, and right up my alley. Maintains an urban sound while refraining from the typical instruments anyone else would use. I really enjoy the drum work on this. Be sure to give this one more than 1 listen.

3. Third is Garden of Secrets, this one here has an EPIC sound, it reminds me of a tragedy. Like a scene out of a movie, where the protagonist just experienced something life changing. I'm not sure what that instrument layered on the melody on the hook is but it sounds like a violin or some of sort of strings, which complement and tie the whole song nicely. This I can picture as a song where the artist would reminisce on moments in his life. Well done Tero!

4. Next up is I Dreamed Last Night. All I can say about this is WHOA, really really nice, I dont want to get into technicalities on the skill and quality of the production. You know when you hear something and you like it but you don't know why? It just sounds good? Well this is it, I love the way this sounds. This is Right up my alley, so far my favorite of the beats I've heard, and thats really all I can say about this.

5. Finally we have Terminate on Sight!, Perfect name for this track! I can picture a collection of artists performing on this just going back and forth taking turns, this would make a nice posse cut! The melody is just RUGGED, powerful music right here!

Overall I must say Life & Death Productions has come a long way since I first heard of them. The music has really improved, Tero has really found a sound to distinguish from other up & coming producers. I really enjoyed most the tracks, but I must say, Terminate on Sight & I dreamed Last Night were by far my favorites.

Anyone interested in contacting Life & Death Productions just email him at lifeanddeathproductions@hotmail.com, tell him Kolt sent ya!

I Want You

Something I wrote a very long time ago...

I've got a shorty I've been fienin for
The type-of-chick the likes-of-which I've never seen before
Only made me fiend for more
A smart, sex, sophisticated lady
She got sass, she got class, plus an ass to drive me crazy
But lately, the lady been acting colder
Ignoring my advances and brushing me off her shoulder
Day by day, I'm craving her more and more
Bored of being ignored and wondering whats in store
Truth be told I want you, as more than lovers
I want it all or I want nothing, I want you like none other
Let me sweep you off them feet - so we can both feel complete
Cant lie, I want you and your exactly what I need

Epic Meal Time - What Up Hater

A couple weeks ago I came across a couple videos from an online cooking show on Youtube called Epic Meal Time. If you've never seen any of their videos prepare yourselves for a laugh or two as well as some really sick meals. One of their meals had over 100,000 calories, thats an instant heart attack for that ass. What I really enjoy most about these videos is the host, hes a character and really adds a nice touch of humor to the videos. If your a fan of Bacon or any meat product youll really enjoy their meals, damn near every meal has massive amounts of bacon as well as the Munchie's inspired concoctions only a pot head would enjoy or dream up! Stop hating!

Up first is the Breakfeast of Booze - What happens when breakfeast meets alcohol, damn near everything is fried in alcohol or breaded with beer batter




Up next is the Turbacon Epic Thanksgiving meal, as the host would describe it, a Bird in a bird in a bird in a bird in a bird, basically 5 different birds stuffed into each other and then stuffed into a pig with of course Plenty of Bacon




Last is their very first video, The Worst Pizza Ever, a Pizza topped with some of the best selections from the menu of some of your favorite fast food restaurants

Robbie Rivera - Wet Kitty Pool Party at the Fountainbleau

So this weekend was the Grand Opening of the Wet Kitty pool party at the world famous Fountainbleau Hotel in Miami Beach. The event was located at the poolside area of the new Arkadia nightclub located on the ground floor of the Chateau.

The Event featured one of my longtime favorite DJ's Robbie Rivera. When I first started getting into the House Music scene and the Miami Clubs back in 2005-2006 he was the first DJ I really got in to. It was a great opportunity to catch one of my favorite DJ's Spinning, especially since I hadn't seen him in over a year, Probably since WMC 2009 and he didn't disappoint.

For my group and I this was a little warm up/teaser to the pool parties coming around in less than 3 weeks for WMC 2011 at the Surfcomber, Shelborne and Club 50 at the Gansevoort Hotel. The event was called the Wet Kitty Pool Party, the perfect name for this event considering my group of friends refer to each other as the Kitties, it felt like a party dedicated to us. It was a great way to get into the WMC state of mind.

The drinks were a little expensive, but its the Fountainbleau, what do you expect? Only complaint is, I don't like my beer out of a can thank you very much. It was a nice venue, a little small in comparison to the Surfcomber but really really nice otherwise. The crowd was young and full of life, perfect place to people watch which is exactly what a lot of the older people staying at the Fountainbleau were doing. It was pretty funny actually, there was a whole crowd of tourists standing in the lobby looking out a window down onto the pool area looking shocked or amazed at the madness occurring in the pool. Robbie kept the crowd going of course and the party lasted till about 8 pm when everyone left and headed to Nikki Beach to continue partying. All I can think of now is Winter Music Conference and the Pool Parties to come. Here are some pictures of the event, enjoy and remember always party safe.
