I’ve done a few of these remixes in the past. I can play guitar (basic strumming that is), so sometimes it’s fun to go the opposite direction with my favorite rap songs by making an acoustic/kinda-singing remix instead of rapping to it. I don’t pretend that this is high quality work, but I make it for the fun of making it and doing something different. Hope you get a kick out of it.

Z-Ro – From The South (Acoustic Remix)
This track was a lot of fun. My brother stumbled into the Edwyn Collins song on a movie soundtrack or something, and he suggested I put a little something down on it. I worked it into a pretty slick beat and decided to put together a spontaneous video to go with it. Hope you enjoy this.

Edwyn Collins – A Girl Like You (Big Hush Remix)
This is the first music video from my album Looking Out For Texas. The song is about the fact that as long as I’m breathing I’ll be making this music and chasing down a dream. I had grown my hair out for a year (sort of a 1/3 of a life crisis, 30th birthday panic thing), and I wanted to make sure I used that in a video before I chopped it off and went back to looking presentable. I had fun making the video with the “cooking up new music” gimmick. Pretty cheesy humor, but that’s right up my alley. I hope you get a grin out of the video and a jam out of the song.

My new album “Looking Out For Texas” is now available! Sorry for the delay in posting about this. I’m very happy with how the album turned out. The title came from two things:
I thought this was a cool way to mix both a literal and figurative concept into one theme. I cover many subjects, Texas pride, cancer (and how much I hate it), ups and downs of life, the things money can do to people, my love for a naked lady and much more. Haha. I hope you’ll check it out and find something on there you like. Visit the Buy Albums page to get this new music and start jammin’!
Thanks,
Big Hush
Probably my favorite song on the Slow Nights. Fast Food. album, this is the music video for “Do It Cuz You Love It.” The message is pretty clear (I hope): do whatever you do because you love it, nothing else. I’m as guilty as anyone of sometimes losing sight of why I do the things I’m most passionate about. You start to think that it’s not worth the time and effort if there is no money in it, or that perhaps the haters are right and no one will ever appreciate what you’re doing. The bottom line is that if it makes you happy then you should do it. Do it right now while you’re able and into it. The video was a fun impromptu shoot. I was in Galveston on a day trip with ol’ G-Bird, had a camera and figured “why not shoot a video while we’re here?” I had to buy a cheap change of clothes once I decided I would stand waist-deep in the gulf for this thing. The water was rolling pretty good that day so standing up straight and rapping at a fixed point was pretty difficult. Hopefully I’m the first rapper to ever film a music video while standing in the Gulf of Mexico…
Here is the music video for “Have-To for the Want-To” from Slow Nights. Fast Food. Easily in my top 3 favorite songs from the album. Thanks to a borrowed camera from J-Bo, this is the highest quality video I’ve ever made. If I can save up the money to get the same camera he has then I would love to have this quality for the rest of my vids going forward. Dewski made this song possible with his powerful guitar skills, but he’s also a drummer, so even though I did the drums in FL Studio I decided it’d look much cooler to have him play them in the video. We had a ton of fun shooting this and I hope we collaborate again in the very near future. Huge thanks to Dewski and his brother J-Bo for making this one happen!
