It seems like everybody’s getting’ into the music biz these days. The latest company to jump in the groove is Marriott Hotels. I know your probably saying to yourself… “What the **** does a hotel chain have to do with music?” Apparently Marriott has gotten in bed with Universal Music Group for what they’re calling a “first-of-its-kind” partnership. Some of Universal's biggest stars will perform at their hotels plus other incentives. This new union kicks off next week when Jessie J will perform at a Marriott Hotel in London.
I’ll be kicking tracks off the hook all weekend long! Get ready for…..Tove Lo, Ed Sheeran, Andy Grammer, Kelly Clarkson, Rachel Platten, MKTO, Fall Out Boy, Walk The Moon, OMI and others like you've never heard them before!

CELEB CAMEOS RULE MUSIC VIDEOS
Last month it was Taylor Swift’s Bad Blood music video
with her besties. Now Madonna drops
the B**** I’m Madonna video with Katy
Perry, Beyoncé, Miley Cyrus, Rita Ora, Chris Rock and
more. This has been happening since music videos came into existence. Another
recent example…Tom Hanks had more camera time than Carly Rae Jepsen in her video. Scarlet Johansson turned it out for Justin Timberlake and Ben Stiller showed up in a P Diddy joint.
What’s your fave music video with a killer cameo? My hands down favorite celeb
in a music video (it is a serious must see)….wait for it.…Christopher Walken in Fat Boy Slim’s Weapon Of Choice.
I'll be pulling out all my
weapons of choice this weekend with EXCLUSIVE HK remixes on Sia,
Rachel Platten, Adam Lambert, Calvin Harris, Jason
Derulo, Walk The Moon, MKTO and so much more!.
Remember…If it's hot, if
it's new and it makes you wanna move…you're In The Mix with HK™.

TAYLOR SWIFT THINKS THINGS ARE MOVING TO FAST!
Is it me
or does it seem like singles are being released at lightning speed lately?
Proof of that is the recent rumor over what Taylor Swift’s next single
off her mondo selling album 1989 will be. Next single, really??? Bad Blood has barely dropped. Taylor’s
reaction: “I don’t even know what the next single is yet !! Let’s all take deep
breaths in and out and watch Bad Blood
again on Vevo”. She must be thinking S*** it took me forever to make
that video and they want another one already? Taylor’s first four tracks from 1989 are all currently charting in the
top 40. Not long ago a label would wait for a song to fall off the chart before
releasing the next one. A great album would provide singles for what seemed
like years. Giving the artist a break to tour, write new music, work their magic in the studio for their next
album or have a life. Now we want our beats
fast and furious. Today labels are trying to make a buck in a digital landscape
and artists are under more pressure than ever to deliver the hits at rapid fire
speed!
I'll be
mixing and remixing the hits with rapid speed and dexterity this weekend in my
EXCLUSIVE HK sets! Adam Lambert,
Walk The Moon, The Police, David Guetta, Ariana Grande,
Sia and even the Biebs all get a sonic reworking. Plus new tracks
from OMI, Zedd, Major Lazer, Jeremih, Flo Rida
and Avicii.
Remember…If
it's hot, if it's new and it makes you wanna move…you're In The
Mix with HK™.

EXCLUSIVE RACHEL PLATTEN INTERVIEW
The first thing that hit me about Rachel Platten is
her contagious energy, wicked good humor and ability to make you feel like a
lifelong friend in two minutes. You may have just been introduced to Rachel via
her Columbia Records debut Fight
Song but she has been writing songs and pounding the music biz pavement for
ten years with a dream that she refused to give up on. From moving to NYC,
finding bands on Craigslist to perform with, temping during the day, gigging
until 4am and the daily lugging of an 80-pound keyboard to her 5th floor
walk-up she’s certainly had her share of musical dues paying. Rachel said… “I
felt crazy sometimes that I still believed in myself when there were no signs
that I should”. Well the signs are glaring now and all that fighting is paying
off. This week I talk with Rachel about comic radio run ins, the meaning behind
her hit single and more!
I’ve also got more beats, more bangers and more of your fave
hits like you've never heard them before! Get ready for custom HK
remixes on Walk The Moon, Sia, Jason Derulo, Ellie
Goulding, Nick Jonas, Taylor Swift, Maroon 5, Tove Lo,
Adam Lambert, Fall Out Boy, Taylor Swift, OMI and that’s just gettin’ the
party started.
