NYE raps! Here’s 10:15, a fresh Izza Kizza x Nick Catchdubs tape to ring in 2011. Twenty cuts from a dude who (in my humble opinion) has always been one of the most inventive and interesting new voices on the mic. Download here and peep the tracklist and producers after the jump. Aud lang syne, y’all… (Show me more…)

Bye 2010. I shouted out some favorites for Turntable Lab. Also did a (not date specific) guest post for Cosmo’s Breakbeat Tuesday. And dropped the 1st track off Izza Kizza’s new mixtape (surprise!) out on NYE.

Kid Sister x Nick Catchdubs Kiss Kiss Kiss mixtape out 1/11/11! Download the title track here and extended intro DJ versions here. No word yet if “R-E-S-P-E-C-T” will make the cut (Aretha get well soon!), more mixtape announcements real soonish…

Finally getting around to posting all my old remixes / DJ mixes in one place on the Soundcloud.

Go nuts, more soon. Now lets see if I use this Tumblr at all.

Welcome to 2008!

A lot of folks were asking for the Radio Friendly Unit Shifter DJ mixes as single, standalone mp3s. I am nothing if not a man of the people.

You can still download track-separated versions of all three volumes of THE BEST MIXTAPE SERIES IN THE WORLD at the Mishka Bloglin. Mr Ducker and I will be back with a fourth real soon…

20 years later, Weekend At Bernies has spawned a dance and accompanying rap song, an award-winning travel reporter, and whatever the shit Jonathan Silverman is doing now. There’s a new Self song that came out this summer and is fantastic, one day I will write a proper post on how much I love their his records. The first (best?) CMJ show I ever saw was Self headlining the Dreamworks showcase in 1999 at some NYC venue I can’t remember but very certain it no longer exists (other acts: Blinker The Star, the guy from Jonathan Fire*Eater who they didn’t ask to be in The Walkmen. Why do I remember things?) Extensive Kenny Fucking Powers article (”…like a finger of dip against my mind’s bottom lip.”) Onion A/V club has some of the best Q&As in the biz. I bought a book off this one. “LA Burnout” mp3 comps of hazy sunsets n Laurel Canyon jamz. Super super good mix from EVR / Minimal Wave Veronika. Funk Flex Live At The Palladium ‘95. Play as Obama in NBA Jam. Sidebar: why won’t Sega drop a new system? Wii and PS3 nah fit mi personal lifestyle branding. GENESIS 2K11 DREAM IT BE IT.
