A good friend of my put me on to these guys, and their a ton of fun!
almost like a livelier animal collective in the sense of use of sound and arrangement, but with a more low tech out come. fun coffee time beats for when your getting your relaxo work on.
Recently, the UK government passed The Digital Economy Act which included many, perhaps draconian, measures to combat online music piracy (including withdrawing broadband access for persistent pirates).
Much was proclaimed about how these new laws would protect musicians and artists revenue and livelihoods.
But how much money do musicians really get paid in this new digital marketplace?”
”
“Even with the relatively healthy profits from CDs (a fast-fading format), a musician has to sell hundreds, month after month, to make a living. I think it’s just a reality there are more people who want to be musicians than the market can support, even (especially?) in the digital age. That doesn’t mean aspiring Jack Johnsons or Thom Yorkes can’t make music. It’s just that lots of them are going to have to do it for love, not money.”
Holy shit why am I awake…well, I guess it’s all very appropriate. In any case, I am now about to write about the last call/end of the night jammers, for all you DJs out there. Honestly, as much as I love banging shit out primetime, I really do enjoy and relish this part of the night as well. Hell, I love opening too. I guess I just love it all. Well, anyway, last call/the end of the night is always a very sweet time to plug in all those tunes that you don’t get to really play out so much. And being the sap that I am, I LOVE dropping lovey dovey disco/dreamy love songs!
Here are a few hand-picked golden gems, for all of us to hold hands and slow dance in the dark to <3
Harpers Bizarre – Witchi Tai To
(One of my all time favorites!!! Lyrics are based on an old Native American chant. Peeped it from an old Lovefingers mix <3)
Delegation, “Oh Honey”
<3 <3 <3 and this is divine <3 <3 <3
Hey guys. So I just finished a live mix for Disco Vibes, albeit it’s a shorter mixtape this time. (Good for those with ADD!) It’s also a bit more dancey/disco-electro-housey than my other mix. Also, the name is swiped (”re-appropriated”) from a Terence Koh work of art, just FYI. Love that guy!
So yes, anyway, DL the mix by clicking the link below. And the tracklisting is below as well. And again, many thanks goes to Matt Pace for letting me use his setup and subjecting him to the numerous takes I had to do. He really IS Mr. Nice Guy! <3
Hope you enjoy the tunes and it keeps ya dancin’ through the night, or in the shower, or whatever

A few weeks ago the crew organized a massive 20 head BYOB & Food Karaoke night in K-Town. Although we missed a few members of the crew: Four Loco, Beer, Champagne, and Asian Snacks helped fill the gap. We also sang stronger in their honor.
If we weren’t already attached to the hip, This brought us even closer (especially DJ Scallywag who sang his heart out to each and every soul in that room). The 1st of many Karaoke sessions was well documented by our home-girl Chrissy and I know with the weather getting warmer we’re sure to be running through town even more The Karaoke night ended with me singing “A whole new world” and I really think I touched some hearts.
My new promo mix, SLOW YOUR ROLL 2 is finally finished. It’s taken me longer than expected, but better late than never, right?
This time around I put a large focus on Latin/Brazilian & Ghettotech/Dancehall inspired House & Electro, which is all the “rage” these days (I guess?). Along the way, you’ll also hear Grade-A Cuts, French FiIter House, Disco Bangers, Classics Tunes re-envisioned & some surprises throughout.
The second edition of Slow Your Roll marks the beginning of a series (of the same name) I plan to continue putting out. I hope to have them done before every season! Summer is right around the corner…so I’m gonna get the ball rolling in a couple of weeks.
Enjoy and Thanks for listening. Spread it around. Let me know what you think!
