Rolled Gold Serves Up Lunchtime Special Boogieman Dela "Hustler" (Remix) from Rolled Gold's Healthy A$$ Breakfast Follow-up



Rolled Gold is the production alias of Philly-based beat-maker, multi-instrumentalist, and charismatic remixer Harry Metz. Over the course of the past year or so, Rolled Gold has become something of a mainstay and frequent collaborator, as you may have already noticed, here at The Witzard. It's been great to personally see Harry's whole sound, style, and musical approach grow and progress since his 2016 EP, The Great Fallback, with fellow Philadelphian, Uncle Crimson. What I have noticed, however, is Rolled Gold's tendency to continually construct and release easily-digestible "bite"-sized projects, which are generally, very short and concise, yet extremely enjoyable and exceedingly well-orchestrated. For an example of what I'm talking about, I would strongly suggest checking out Rolled Gold's SALTY (3P) EP, "The Field" Feat. No Headliner, "Nite Owl's Theme" Feat. Ai​-​Que & Reef The Lost Cauze, and Rolled Gold's Healthy A$$ Breakfast on his Bandcamp & Soundcloud pages. Now, Rolled Gold has "returned to the table" (no pun intended!) to deliver the first "taste" of his as-yet-untitled "lunch tape," a remix of Boogieman Dela's "Hustler."


"Lunch tape" is poised to be the natural follow-up to Rolled Gold's Healthy A$$ Breakfast and was more or less, constructed in a similar manner; a 10-12 minute mini-mixtape/continuous mix constructed from original compositions and instrumentals played by Rolled Gold himself and his go-to cast of characters and then, painstakingly sampled and re-constructed from the ground up. Although, I digress... "While the second installment of this series is in-the-making, he's selected a single full remix to release as a preview single: "Hustler" by Boogieman Dela, originally from Boogie's Future Currents EP," Rolled Gold writes within a press release. "Hustler" (Remix) now contains, in contrast to the Rolled Gold-produced original, a pitched-down, almost Chopped & screwed, Bluesy quality to Boogieman Dela's unique half sung/half rapped vocal delivery. However, as Rolled Gold fittingly describes it, "Hustler" (Remix) "still holds a Funky groove with the drums, bass line, and birds chirping in the background." Rolled Gold's as-yet-untitled "lunch tape" will become available on his various digital/streaming platforms by or before November 2018.

[W]reckless, Topless American Youth: Lana del Rey - "Born 2 Die" (Britney Spears Birthday 30)

Lana del Rey [Lizzy Grant] effectively became 2011's "It Girl" with the release of her phenomenal debut single, "Video Games" (Stranger) . Like many struggling singer-songwriters, Grant has been signed, dropped, and significantly changed her public image since bursting onto the scene (2009). With that said, it can be assumed that Lana del Rey has collected just as many "haters" as she has avid supporters. To be perfectly honest, the only other artist I can think of that made this much commotion... garnered so much wide-spread buzz/hate and critical acclaim -- right out of the gates -- with just one track is Britney Spears . And maybe in this post- Mike musical era, that's the true synthesis of Pop Culture: Britney Lynn Spears . After months of repeated teasing and speculation, Lana del Rey 's major label debut, Born 2 Die will [finally] be released this coming Jan. 30-31, 2012. Pitchfork reports that it will feature "Off to The Ra
