Popping-up in lifestyle magazines and coming off the
tip of every music nerd’s tongue after a decade-plus
hiding in the city’s nightlife, everybody’s
finally talking Baltimore Club Music. Those spastic
dance beats and terse samples now have spread through
the city and county and into surrounding states and
finally, the globe. You’ve heard about it, now
you’re ready for the real thing.
Meet “Bmore Club” O.G, DJ Excel. He’ll
be your Club tour guide.
Since his first release in 1995, and into the new
decade with his web-savvy label Bmore Original, Excel’s
been broadcasting club music through singles, remixes
(or “re-fixes” as he calls them), and
even downloads and radio shows. His Obama-themed “That’s
What a Pimp Does” had the blogs talking and
won Baltimore City Paper’s 2008 “song
of the year” and he keeps that momentum up with
“Bounce”.
A two-minute sprint of hipster rap and hardcore club
music, “Bounce” is based on Kid Cudi’s
hit single, but Excel wraps shout-out samples around
those paranoid synths and slowly but surely buries
the whole thing beneath layers of Bmore Club breaks,
to make something oddly familiar and wholly new at
the same time.
Two Bonus Tracks included:
Nothing short of epic, “Bmore A.D.D”
sends you on an eleven-minute sonic trip through pretty
much every conceivable style of Club music and then
some. It’s a history lesson in the form of an
undeniable club banger. And don’t forget Excel’s
skillful, even more electro “re-fix” of
Kayne’s sad-sack hit from the fall.
