Holiday Record Buys

With the Fully Fitted A team filling us in on their gallivants across the globe (holler D+D currently doing their Australia thing) I thought I'd fill you in on my exotic holiday travels to New Jersey. It started well with a trip to the local mall, deteriorating further with every visit!

Benefiting though is the record spot of my youth. Formerly a hole in the wall on the second floor, they've moved down into what is obviously a retired Sam Goody. Good riddance Sam! The vinyl selection has slimmed but there are still a few cuts just good enough not to own:

The Salsoul Classics reissue among them ended up being warped to shit when I got home. My fault for not checking it out first. Still 3 bucks well spent supporting the place. Found the tracks online so my monetary loss could be your digital gain:


Anthony White - Block Party (Walter Gibbons 12-inch Mix)


Surface - Falling In Love

A quick cut from Mikey B. (no gel next time Mike!) and an Auntie Anne's pretzel later I was on my way home getting ready to do the damn thing.


Happy Thanksgiving from the armpit.

Dj Khaled said they The Very Best

Esau Mwamawaya and Radioclit are THE VERY BEST
I was trying to make these easy for you to where you can actually click the image, but my coding skills are not happening tonight. Instead, click the link above.

The Radioclit dudes sent this over a little while ago and so far this is nothing but dope. Free album download by Esau and Radioclit on some other worldness that is truly tasteful. Some of these tracks have been on the internet for some time now, but here they are in all their entirety. They also sent over two new remixes that are not going on the blog... deal with it.

Serato Roll update

I asked about this awhile back and have since installed the upgrade and done the correct protocol for making this function active. While I was playing with it and showing it to some of my friends, I did learn a neat trick that I have not seen anyone post about yet, which is how to keep the function active even after you quit and restart.

Here is the trick I am talking about...



So what I did was, instead of having to make the new crate constantly, I thought about changing the name of an already existing crate just to see what happens. So, I made a new crate called, "we gettin arab money", and threw a few evvy chunes in it (dont know if that is necessary, but did it either way) I then renamed the crate to the "proper" name that enables the function and voi effing la... it stayed. Have fun.

oh yeah and if you got an extra hand or mutant hands like the young curtstradamus, there is a way to shorten and lengthen the roll joints too...

TONIGHT Huggs back in Boston !

Claire Hux: D-Lake Guest Post

YO YO YO!!!

It's DLake from Baltimore/Unruly Records introducing my new group "Claire Hux". We are comprised of Singer Symbol, DJ Morsy (NYC-Nanachill), and myself Hype Man/DJ/Producer/Auto Tune using Vocal guy DLake. I like to say we take our influences from Bel Biv Devoe, Fresh Prince, and Outkast with a 2008 party music keep everyone dancing sorta twist (Especially cuz we have a bunch of syncopated choreographed dances throughout our set).

Claire Hux just finished a brand spanking new mixtape that was mixed by the Unruly Records great SCOTTIE B.!!! Titled "Jammin on the One" (If you get the Cosby Show reference you get 2 cool points). You can download it here.

And............ while you wait for that download to finish, don't forget to peep the crazy compilation video of a few of our shows (It's mad entertaining I promise).

As always... If your feeling us tell all your friends, send a link to the mixtape, burn them a copy, blog about it, befriend us on myspace or facebook so you can keep up on the comings and goings of Claire Hux. Great things planned for 2009. One of those great things is actually the 3rd Annual "March Mustache and Miniskirt Party" with Devlin & Darko and Claire Hux. Probably going to be early March sometime.. more info on that in the next month or so! Last year was BANANAS so this year is going to be even crazier!

Feedback always appreciated!

Gloria Jones - Tainted Love (prince klassen intro edit)

I just made this quick edit for a little extended pleasure of this sweet sweet chune. I was almost tempted to make a 3 minute loop of the intro... that might just happen. Disregard Marc Almond and his "partner" coming out ol girl's hair, that did not really happen, it was photoshopped.

I'M GONNA WRITE A SONG TODAY

I think I'm gonna write a song today
it's gonna be about rhyming and words
I think I'm gonna have a lot to say
this fucking song is going to change the world
I think I'm going to find myself today
I'm gonna turn into a glass of jameson (on the rocks of course)
my doctor says it's gonna be a sad day
but at least I get the girl
I think I'm gonna write a song today
the one I've been chasing my whole life
won't have to wait to record
all there done in one take
I'm gonna write a song today
just wait, you'll see it's gonna get a grammy
you're gonna be singing this song today
and for the rest of your time here
and it won't even be about panties...

fall mix for cloud plum

Fall is here...in Texas too, which is really weird. I can't remember the last time it was actually cold or cool this time of year in Texas. I kind of don't know what to do with myself, I feel like I should still be wearing tee shirts and sweating for days.

With the official announcement of the fall season, it seems like my tastes change every year. Music, fashion, food, activities, they all get a face lift.

Here is an exclusive mix I did for CloudPlum.Blogspot.com and its followers. This is all music that influences me and also reminds me of the Fall. So PMP friendly...

Baltimore Mega Post Slim

Went back home this week to link up with Darko and put together some ideas for festival sets in Australia . We called up one of Baltimores good dudes, Jack who has helped us out with the use of his space in the past. The place is great, really crazy looking inside, and perfect for halloween time dj nerdery/ Evvy Chunery





...and the shtuuudio is right near the corner of :





.......We went to see NinjaSonik on thursday, WOW, funniest shit ever. These guys entertained all 12 people in the club for a full hour. They were running around singing along to a Minor Threat song and some dude said," Play your own songs!" To which JahJah replied, " hey, its cold outside, you need some covers." Too good!

Bathroom Sex...


Dj'd at Taxlo on Friday and afterwards Chipset and I went to this terrible after party on Baltimore St. behind the H&H.
We saw these amazing party lights and thought it was gonna be allright, but it looked like some kind of Tawney Town Meth Den inside...
