Crazy Feeling

Just messing about here, Gwen Stefani's Hollaback Girl detuned and mashed together with Make It Right by Aretha Franklin. Think it actually works quite well, and I had TOO MUCH fun making it.

Expect a bit of everything in this 1.5hr closing set at soul of sydney on an 8 hr party, from house, to hip hop and jazz, throw back oldies, afrobeats touches + boogie, soul and funk - the live recording is a bit rough as live party mixes tend to be at times. I love playing closing sets, cause sometimes you need to refresh the energy in the room. Still this mix will give you a broad spectrum of some of the styles and genres i love to intertwine. ❤️Enjoy

WHAT YOU WANT?

"Don’t Be A Fool, Wrap Your Tool 3.0" This storyline is a cerebral breakdown of responsibility, framed by the wisdom of an older observer (the MC) speaking directly to a younger, ego-driven mentality. The narrative is driven by intellectual conviction and the logic of avoidance. Overall Storyline: Prevention, Control, and Peace of Mind
The narrative is structured to replace feelings of fear, shame, or inevitability with feelings of control, intelligence, and agency.
1. Acknowledging Reality, Not Judgment
The World is Tempting (The Setup): The storyline immediately recognizes the natural, powerful emotions of attraction and the heat of the moment. The lyric doesn't shame the desire; it acknowledges it as a normal part of life.
Narrative Focus: The focus is immediately shifted from "What you're doing is bad" to "What are you doing to protect your future?" This non-judgmental start ensures the audience remains receptive.
2. The Simple Equation of Control
The Conflict is Simple: The core conflict is not a moral struggle, but a simple choice between Ego/Impulse and Intelligence/Foresight.
The Solution is Actionable: The hook—"Don't Be A Fool, Wrap Your Tool"—is presented as the smartest rule and a real power move (the Hip-Hop theme). By focusing on the simple, inexpensive act of using protection, the story emphasizes that preventing the chaos is easier than navigating the consequences.
3. Contrasting Pain with Preservation
The Future Cost is Clearly Defined: The storyline uses concrete, relatable examples of the consequences (losing school, losing dreams, financial strain) not to scare the audience, but to provide a clear cost-benefit analysis. The goal is to make the audience think: "I want to avoid that path."
Peace of Mind is Agency: The peace of mind comes from the lyric asserting that the listener has the authority (the "Unfuckwithable" theme) to prevent this future pain. The final message is: The tiny piece of latex buys back your entire future.
4. The Empowering Resolution
The Final Command is Self-Love: The lyric concludes by framing responsibility as an act of self-preservation and self-respect. Choosing to protect yourself and your partner means choosing your own planned destiny over accidental fate.
The Core Message for Peace of Mind: "Your future is yours to command. The power to avoid the heavy choices is already in your hand."
By framing the issue around intelligence and personal control rather than morality or fear, the storyline empowers the audience to make responsible choices that lead to a less chaotic, more secure future.

DJ Steef_Rising South Coast - Editorial #21

The other day I stumbled across this incredibly uplifting video - if you haven't seen it yet, do yourself a favour (Insta: https://bit.ly/35AOstU  YouTube: https://bit.ly/2VHrqgo). It's by The Samples, performing a cappella outdoors with a brass band and segueing from Risin' To The Top into All Night Long. What a great vibe!! 

Well, I was just heading off to a party and I thought: that'd be a great one to play, lemme just add a little something to it. And, of course, as these things go, one thing led to another. And another...

Seeing how this was recorded, the quality is what it is, so enjoy it for what it is. Actually, if you think about it, it's two edits for the price of one. Speaking of which, it's a free download, so don't forget to show your appreciation. If you prefer not to use the free download gate, just shoot me a line.
