dj_esentrik 10:14 PM - 24 March, 2010
For those who remember I did a mashup to Drake's "Over" using the DJ Sega "Be" remix and its really gettng a lot of buzz lately.

It hit the Fader site:

www.thefader.com

and Drizzy Drake himself posted it on his blog!

gotchuckz 5:55 AM - 25 March, 2010

DJ TOGTFO 3:32 PM - 25 March, 2010
its a pretty cool remix, but am I the only person who thinks its whack that Dr(F)ake straight up used the Dead Prez- Hip Hop verse?
Djaward 3:45 PM - 25 March, 2010

dj_esentrik 11:25 PM - 25 March, 2010
I've been getting lotta emails from DJ's saying its been killing the the clubs. for those who have used it in the clubs? how's the reaction?
DJ TOGTFO 11:29 PM - 25 March, 2010
the hook is off. something wrong with the key or Drake's voice sucks. One or the other.
dj_esentrik 11:48 PM - 25 March, 2010
i think its its voice. he's off on the orignal lol

ur absolutely right, any song sounds catchy over that beat but i knew putting the Drake "Over" vocals on it would be special cause i knew there was so much hype to his first single, good and bad. So, I seized the opportunity.

for some reason I can't download from this link. It takes me to the download site, but then can't connect to the server... anyone else having this problem?

Big ups on this one... I'm feeling it fosho. I got it from one of the other links I found, but I'm looking for the higher quality and clean versions.
djchase 10:13 AM - 26 March, 2010
dope rmx just made a nice intro to play tom...thanks
frost-9 11:13 AM - 26 March, 2010
chorus sounds really weird...

oh. and I'm a total drake hater, and very proud to admit it.

on a positive note, the verses sound WAY better with the Machuka beat behind them over the original.. unfortunately the chorus loses it for me. I vote re-edit.
freshtodeath 2:25 PM - 26 March, 2010

Agreed - the chorus sucks (not your fault)

Id play this late night - if it held energy in the chorus probably prime time.
Corex 8:05 PM - 26 March, 2010
this remix is dooope!
Dj-M.Bezzle 8:06 PM - 26 March, 2010

I've already got this thing in Audition.... working on the re-edit. I love it, but the chorus is killing me. I'm making it more club friendly.

Your Remix is awesome....I like this better than the original.
dj_esentrik 11:29 PM - 1 April, 2010
appreciate the great response! DJ Semtex just hit me up and told me he's feeling the mix and asked for the clean edit. glad to see this mix hitting overseas as well!

look out for my Drake mixtape as well coming soon. compilation of drake remixes by me including this one.
djatrain@hotmail.com 6:32 PM - 2 April, 2010
Got a club full of Party Kids tonight that love this type of music. Nice remix by the way. Will play it in the mix tonight and see how they like it. Big Upz
DJ Viru 6:41 PM - 2 April, 2010
I wish you had your drop in the very beginning like most DJs do so we can actually mix it in without your drop.
DJDeluchi 6:55 PM - 2 April, 2010
the be instrumental is all good
DJ Viru 7:20 PM - 2 April, 2010
what instrumental?
dj_esentrik 9:36 PM - 2 April, 2010
The only reason put my drop in is cause a few times especially this one I have run into foolishness with other DJs/people/ whatever and they have stole my shit and take credit for it. so im very cautious on what i put out.

but if u really need one without a drop, ill post it
Corex 11:36 PM - 2 April, 2010
Yeah I was going to play this last night but then remembered it had the drop plopped right in the middle. Can't play that when I'm at the club nor when I'm on the radio.

Can you post up clean and dirty edits without the drop?
frost-9 10:47 AM - 3 April, 2010
ok.. not to knock the remix in the thread, but I honestly don't understand why people are shitting themselves over this guy... Reluctantly played "Over" for the first time tonight, (the original mix) for a rather large tip, and it was literally like letting all the air out of a balloon.. If I EVER drop it again, I'm playing this remix here... regardless of the fucked chorus..
DJ SPAIR 1:34 PM - 3 April, 2010
i like this one but what do you guys think of the hyper crush remix

Watchwww.youtube.com
Maskrider 4:31 PM - 3 April, 2010
Thanks for the link...I really stop caring about the music I play in the Club what matters to me right now is getting money I just treat it as another job.

Yo dope edit I like and I know the club will. To fix your chorus issue you might be better off dropping the acapella in SSL with the instrumental and fixing it there on the fly. Why you may ask because Drake cant rap so trying to warp him in ableton will give you that off beat shit sometime especially with artist who cant rap. At this point the remix has flooded the internet so its not much use now. Thats just what I do
DJ Dub Cowboy 10:13 PM - 13 April, 2010
good remix

but I can't stand Drake, he sounds like a 3rd grader trying to rap. Remedial Rap....
geeunot 2:00 AM - 14 April, 2010
send us the video for us vjs! thanks
dj_esentrik 2:10 AM - 14 April, 2010
