“From the first bass-heavy note, the aggressive reworking conjures a late-night, glowstick-filled warehouse rave with its buoyant rhythm and catchy-yet-eerie EDM dissonance. Yelawolf’s commands to the audience to move — “Tall people in the back/ Move to the front/ Small people in the front/ Move to the back”— take on a new urgency in the electronic mood.”
—Emma Greenberg, ROLLINGSTONE.COM (7/24/13)

STEVE AOKI and world-renowned drummer Travis Barker of blink-182 fame have  released a special remix of the Travis Barker & Yelawolf track “Push ‘Em” onDim Mak Records. Officially dubbed Travis Barker & Yelawolf – “Push ‘Em” (Steve Aoki & Travis Barker Remix), the reworked version highlights Barker’s raw and rapid-fire drums and combines AOKI’s next-level production skills to create a monster electro head banger built equally for EDM and punk shows alike. The original version of“Push ‘Em” was featured on the Travis Barker & Yelawolf 2012 collaborative EPPsycho White. I’ve included full stream links and the official music video for the track below for your reference.
