Seperation

Posted on July 20, 2011 | Leave a comment

I’ve been digging through LOTS of old footage lately.  Lots of memories.  I found a performance of DKC from the late 90s… a Kwanzaa celebration thrown by The Nation of Islam.  It was refreshing to see where things all started again… some of the crew is no longer with us anymore (RIP GiGi), and some of the crew has moved on and lost touch with one another.  It seems like we were destined to follow in the words of NOOK from so long ago…

“You made a move unanticipated, but that’s what happens when you make that seperation… Good things change.”

There have definitely been some unanticipated moves made in my music career… some by me, some done by others that effected me.  Regardless of what has happened in the past, I am glad that I am here today, and I am able to share my thoughts and feelings about my experiences on this crazy planet with the rest of you out there, whether it be via music, art, or this website.

I appreciate all of the support from all of my friends, worldwide.  There is not a day that goes by that I don’t think about each and everyone of you.  Joni Mitchell “sees something of herself in everyone, just at this moment in the world”.  Feist can feel it all.  I believe I fall somewhere in-between… we’re all sharing this experience, my friends.

See you, space cowboy.

Here’s some more goodness from the vaults of The Word Association… this is one of our first trips to Houston, live at The Rhythm Room.  Full crew, and there’s a gem on here from The Ill Mathematical about topics that still effect us today.  Dig.

New Doom!

Posted on June 22, 2011 | Leave a comment

I love putting the spotlight on Electric Mayhem… working as a team is dope.  Sometimes, however, I gotta sit back and admire the times when I cut loose.  These mixes are moments that I have enjoyed during various DJ gigs, whether they be club, wedding, house party or whatvever… these two mixes are from last week’s Electric Mayhem (Monday nights, Triple Crown).

Dig it and dig it good.

A Word on Electric Mayhem

Posted on June 12, 2011 | Leave a comment

For almost a decade, I have had the pleasure of knowing that I never have to go a week without at least one gig.  Electric Mayhem has definitely been a godsend, and I am proud that we still do it weekly to this day.

Electric Mayhem serves as a sort of therapy… it allows me time to make sense of the mass amount of music I have been exposed to.  Dots are connected amongst songs, styles and artists.  Hits of yesterday and today are given a chance to flex their muscle, and forgotten or unknown gems get a chance to shine.  All who witness leave either entertained or educated.

I bring TheDoomsdayDevice with me, including a Serato setup, MIDI controller and Korg Kaoss Pad.  My partner in crime, sPYhOP, sticks with the traditional DJ setup of turntables, mixer, and tons of vinyl.  Having been friends before our working relationship began, the chemistry between us is as natural as can be, and half of the entertainment is watching us work with each other.

You can catch us at the end of June in Austin at Plush:

We can also be found every Monday night at Triple Crown:

See you space cowboy!
