Headcount.org Featured Artist "REGISTER TO VOTE" CAMPAIGN
"I was privileged enough in 2012 to be asked to be one of Headcount's featured artist in their "Register To Vote" Campaign. The campaign for me was important because I felt it was my way of taking action in getting my generation involved in what goes on in our country/world. I truly believe this generation has the ability to change our world for the better and this was my way in taking part. Being pictured and listed next to some of the most amazing/talented artists in the world was truly an honor while participating in the largest social media-driven campaign EVER. "
The Aftermath Mixtape via mashupsongs.org
Do you have two hours of straight bass bumping, party rockin’, heart pounding music? Of course you do. Hit that play button and let Perry Gaffney take you on epic musical odyssey.
What I love about this mashup/mixtape comes down to just pure size. There is so much music that you are bound to find something that makes you happy.
An appropriate reaction to this mixtape is to turn the music up as loud as possible, I condone this action with a, “Fuck yes!” Don’t be afraid of the music, let it do its thing. I highly suggest breaking this mix out at the net big dance party. It has a little something for everyone and there is enough energy in the song to turn any dreary, lame party into a club thumping house of malcontent.
I would not suggest listening to this in your room – alone. Go make some friends and bring this with you. Let’s rock this house.

Perry Gaffney Jr Ft. PNC - Beat Of The World via Mashup L♥ve
"During my daily "walk about" on soundcloud i found Perry Gaffney with his tune called: "Beat Of The World" and wow... made my day! Another epic song to the list ;)
- When im listening to this song I could easily imagine myself sitting on the beach with a bunch of friends having a good time, drinkin a couple of beers.
The music is really casual and could easily be played on the radio, since i found it "single" like - and if it were so i would turn up the music thats for sure.
- Normally when im listening to mash up i would love to get it really mixed with lots of acapellas, otherwise i normally find it kind of boring, but i find this really nice through the whole song"

PGJR FT. PNC "BEAT OF THE WORLD"
"A new mashup from Perry Gaffney surfaces today. This mashup is pretty damn entertaining if I do say so myself. In my opinion it seems like this mashup is focused more toward being a “single” that could go on the radio. Maybe Perry is aiming to be recognized…we will see.
Despite the hiccups in the music in some spots, this mash has great potential. I have known Perry to really give it to you, down and dirty, but this one show a more controlled side to his music. What I mean by that is that this song seems like it was made for the casual listener of mashups. That is why i feel like its a “single” off of a future album…perhaps. Even if I am wrong, maybe just me saying this will inspire him to make something like an album for us all to have in the future…who knows."

"NEGROS IN PARIS" via mashupsongs.org
"Check out this heavy hit from Perry Gaffney Jr.. This takes a song, that I personally find mediocre, and turns it into one of the biggest, banging, bass bumpin’ beats I have heard in a long time. Damn, son. What I like about it is that it has that dubstep feel, but doesn’t get stuck in the “dubstep” rhythm. What I mean by that, is, there are plenty of places where the beat drops, but it doesn’t get into that “glitch” state that feels very “electronic”. This mashup really focuses on that hard hitting beat which really keep the attention of the audience. This mashup is very original and was fucking awesome to listen to. Great shit!"
Interview: Perry Gaffney Jr. (Catching up) via mashupsongs.org
So its been a while, give us an update on what you have been doing that is pushing your career forward.
"Well a whole lot has been going on since the last time we did an interview. I’m always busy grinding out music and doing other things that pertain to my career such as photo shoots, shows, and interviews like this one. However as you know I am always trying to make moves towards success in my music career but recently I have become the newest member of SimplePlay Presents (Nola) which is a music production, management, and booking company out of New Orleans. SimplePlay and my booking agent (Alex Bowen) have been a huge part of my recent success. The biggest thing pushing my career forward is my music though. Most of the time when I produce a mash-up I try and make sure it is unique in that no one has probably heard anything like it before and to me that is the key towards success in being unique."

PERRY GAFFNEY JR / DRIP DROP BASSHEAD COLLAB
"Check out this awesome mashup. The first section of this mashup is by a new artist to my ears, Drip Drop, gotta say I like the attitude he takes toward music, he really likes that upbeat and fast stuff that blows the bass through the walls of the room. I gotta say, me like-y. Then of course once Drip Drop ends, we get the second part completely mixed by the talented Mr. Gaffney. Not much of a surprise that he gives us something that blows the hinges off the door. I really like his “Teach Me How To Dougie” party (4:15). That is probably my favorite part of his part of the mashup, just because it has that complexity that I am listening for. "
"WALK OUT THE BOOMBOX" via mashupsongs.org
"Lil Wayne sounds good with all music it seems like, then you put him up with some music that is hardcore to the bone, he becomes even more awesome. I don’t really know how else to describe this song but to call it “Crunk”. It has everything it needs. Solid lyrics, a kick ass baseline, steady beat, excellent lyrics transition (with the music). This mashups, though it is A+B, is an excellent template for all those who are looking for some inspiration. Thanks to Perry Gaffney for another amazing mix."
"Gettin' Loose At The Block Party"via mashupsongs.org
"This is a good workout for your bass, if you have one. This song has some badass beats all throughout it, thus, I suggest that you turn your music way up. Now as for a song that is a “hit” for a party, this isn’t really what you are looking for. This mashup is more something along the lines of a pump up while at the gym. This is something that I think would turn people off in groups, but individually I’m sure everyone would like a listen. Its fast, loud, and most importantly its fuckin’ dubstep. Enjoy."
West Coast Flo Rockstar via Mashupciti
WEST COAST FLO ROCKSTAR VIA THE MUSIC PHOENIX
"I’m glad that Perry Gaffney Jr. decided to keep this track down to a simple 2 artist mashup. West Coast Flo Rockstar pits Rihanna’s Rockstar against Bassnectar’s Timestretch (West Coast Flo). Perry put together a great build that helps you to anticipate what’s to come. Plus, Rihanna’s powerful vocals over Bassnectar is just enough to rock out to without getting lost in a potential mega mashup."

"Here is another from Perry Gaffney. Immediately what I like to hear is the “rock and roll-esque” music. Lots of mashups try to pull this off, but almost all fail. They either go too hard with the rock or don’t go hard enough. What I like to hear though is the smooth transition from “rock” to more bass. Once Biggie starts rapping, there is less focus on the rock and more on the music that would make him sound good. Then, one “After Midnight” kicks back in there is a combination of both with just adds a whole new dimension of awesomeness. He makes the mashups, I just critique them. My favorite part of this entire mashup has to be the end though, it comes to full and complete close, doesn’t leave you hanging at all like some mashups do where they just cut out. Good job, bro."
