On Track















My man Kon never fails. He just dropped this mix in support of On Track Vol. 3 coming out this April on BBE with partner Amir. This one is really on some other shit. Highly recommended.

Nebulosa

I always listen to the weirdest schitt before I DJ. Sometimes I just want to keep my mind free of what I'm gonna play and let things flow. Hence me rocking stuff like this all day. Another one like the other one. This time on the Bossa tip. Enjoy, and have a good week/end, y'all.

Dug this out today and figured I'd share it with everybody. My life story. The struggle never ends.

R.I.P. Nujabes

This one hits close to home.
News came today that fellow producer, Nujabes passed away from the result of a car accident in February. More info can be found here: http://www.e22.com/nujabes The comments left by people around the world show what an impact he made in people's lives.

Much respect to Nujabes. May he rest in peace.

Sundown Syndrome

Just found this completely by accident looking for something on YouTube. 5 minutes later I was buying the 7". I know some of you out there will dig this.

It's new, it's from Australia, it is good.



You know me, I like a lot of different schitt.

Bullies & Brothels

My man who needs no introduction, Seatlle's own DJ Mr. Supreme (aka Supreme La Rock, aka One of the Illest in the Game) just dropped this movie mix in preparation for his all 45's gig with Skeme Richards in NYC this weekend.
















"In preparation of the Hot Peas & Butta "Bullies & Brothels" party hitting NYC this weekend I've done a mix that was inspired by movies of the 1970's. Complete with previews and coke commercial. Get the popcorn ready. This is rated R. Under 17 not admitted without an adult."

The Beat Bee

















Extended family, Food One (Jim Mahfood) & Jane Dope have been holding it down with their (semi) weekly Beat Bee Sessions podcast rocking everything from Funkadelic and PUTS to DFA and Nucleus. Reminds me of those love letter/cassette mixes you'd make when you first meet someone you like (shout out to Ione Skye - C*r*en I see you!). Their taste runs wild and deep and you can tell they have a good time putting these together. Recommended listening.

High Life






















I'm trying to think of something to write while I listen to this, but keep getting distracted by something new every sentence. I'm seriously late on this one. My man Suff Daddy dropped this mix of his production/remixes a few months back and needless to say, there's some seriously fresh shit on here. Time for me to get back in the lab! Enjoy, it's free. Right click/save as.

Audio quality of this youtube is doo doo, but you get the picture.
