This is a mix I recorded for my friend who has been helping the DC–SDS organize anti-war dance parties in the streets of Washington.

A couple of things you should know:
1. Ninety percent of the tracks in this mix were selected by DC-SDS members. I picked a few that I just couldn’t not play (Michael Jackson)

2. I recorded this without practicing bc I am a busy man!

ANYWAY HERE IS THE TRACK LIST Continue Reading »

Uncle Hank, I made you a mixed tape. Do not accidentally listen to side B, or you will fall in love.

OK, so a looong time ago, when the Freeform DJ Collective first started, I had an idea to make a Valentine’s Day Compilation. King Koopa, DJ Sweetie Pie and I got together and started working on it, but after a few hours we got drunk, went dancing at Gate 54, and I ended up sleeping in my bathroom. E-Rock also sent in a contribution from the UK, the project has since been put on hold because King Koopa moved to New York and DJ Sweetie Pie left Freeform DJs to focus on other projects.

The other day I was just fucking around and found some of my notes from then, so I threw some of the tracks together. The final mix, if we ever pick this project back up, will be much more cohesive and feature more tricks and will make you really fall in love. Consider this a “practice session”, as if to say: I like you, but I’m not in like with you. Yet!

If you’ve seen me play recent (at FUR, Sonar or Beyond) you probably heard parts of this mix already.
