BIRD PETERSON


bird (myspace) is big enough name in the internet world... he seems to release mixes consistently and of big enough tracks to always stay noteworthy. style-wise he's usually been too weird for me, blasting wow basses and a lot of stutters, but every once in a while something will work real well. he has a distinct style but he sounds best (in my opinion) when he breaks away from it. you'll see...

cupid - cupid shuffle (bird peterson remix) (zshare)
this is a total mind eff and im probably only posting it because its the cupid shuffle. this is an example of the bird sound he's carved out for himself, and the other tracks are less unique (?) or less bird peterson sounding (??)

wale - freaks (bird peterson remix) (zshare)
i actually made this post to put up the cupid shuffle track, but i just stumbled on this... im a big wale fan (dc, dc) so its cool to see (a) a bird remix and (b) a chill bird remix. worth a look, its a lot more relaxed than his usual work.

big country - in a big country (bird peterson mountainside sex mix) (zshare)
this was my ringtone for a while... i first heard it in a scottie b mix, during the height of the over-baltimore-club-ification remix phase a few months back. its a song that doesnt need a bmore-ish remix, but its kind of refreshing and a good reason to listen to the song again. i remember reading that bird said he was giving up making baltimore club type songs because "he wasn't good at it and that he needed to do him" or something like that, but i like this the best.
