Adek is one of my favorite writers. I first saw his stuff around town in Tacoma & Seattle when I was just a young hustler. He was up a lot in the bay area when I was there and now I see his shit all over new york. His letters are really bubbly but still grimey as hell. I wanna get in touch w him & try to get him to design a 12" or something.

Another West Coast hit from 1994. This
is the Jeep Mix to a classic LA cut. I remember
bumping this in high school. Ahmad was
on top of the game with this one. The name
of the song is Back In The Day (Jeep Mix)

I did a remix a few weeks ago for these San Francisco guys Cubik and Origami. I tried a few different things with the track before Leo finally brought his MPC over to my studio and helped me knock it out. The original track is dope but it's a very different style than mine so I didn't really know what to do. I took a bunch of sounds I heard in the vocal tracks that sounded percussive and played them like drums underneath the beat. I recorded some vocoder stuff too but only a few pieces of that ended up on the track. I still have a lot of other remixes on the way so we'll see how I do with those (Machinedrum, MuxMool, Nosaj Thing...) I posted this remix on my myspace page but they have an MP3 of it up on the Cubik and Origami media page for free! so go and grab it right now!

DJ Life is the homie and one of the best DJ's I've ever heard.
He usually spins House, Hip-Hop, and R&B so this is
a new look for him. Soulful Drum & Bass mix from
one of LA's finest. Catch him at The Standard hotel if
you are in LA. DJ Life Drum & Bass Mix

Ok so...before the homie JR got all famous and moved to Berlin we had a night in Brooklyn called Dance Dot Com at this bar near my house. We tried to take the show on the road but some drunk bitch was dancing on the bar at a club in South Carolina and spilled an entire beer on John's laptop : (
we only did a few more party's with DDC but we managed to record a mix one night! keep in mind there are a bunch of shitty mp3's of radio rap songs on here mixed with some good vibes electro so don't get mad at me.
check out the Dance Dot Com DJ Mix
