ask me any darn question you want!!!!!

Tha homie DJ Stylus hipped me to this odd new social networking phenomenon, perhaps tha zenith of self-referential culture and collective mental masturbation -- and thus, i JUMPED ON IT!!! lol....

Go ahead. Ask me questions.

I DARE YOU.

Tha ORIGINAL Fraudcast

This is a mixtape made roughly six years ago, if iriemember correctly it was shortly after a breakup and although i made it for myself, i feel pretty certain listening to it today that i was just too shook to give it to my ex, who it was REALLY for.

i gave some folks a copy of it about a year later, as alot of tha music had a holiday/winter feel. folks generally liked it, even though tha music contained on tha mix is pretty much tha OPPOSITE of a party.

found tha master CD while cleaning out and, being that this is a Thursday (when i normally do my podcast on www.alldayplay.fm -- studios are closed for tha holidays this week, however) i figured i'd post it for you and yours.

you may wanna put a jacked on first.

NYE, DJ Edits, y que...

Just back from NYC, where we finished 2009's Eastern Standard Time monthly sessions with a great night of music, in 15 degree weather (ouch). Shout out to DJ Ge-ology who came thru despite being quite sick (tha Louis Vuitton SARS mask was a classy, and contemporary, touch homie), to Tania of 11th Parallel, DJ Engine, Swash Boogie of Parlour Magazine, DJ Eleven, MoMa, DJ Myles, Crazylegs of Rocksteady Crew, DJ Parler, Sutra NYC, and all tha folks who made tha year end closer so much fun.

I had about 45 minutes to kill at SFO before my flight out on Thursday morning, and made a quick DJ edit (8 bar intro, a tad unconventionally arranged but hopefully useful; I also sped tha BPMs up a notch) of tha new Jay Electronica and Just Blaze collaboration, "Exhibit C." Followers of this blog know I am a big fan of Jay Electronica and this joint has received a TON of well-deserved hype since being previewed on satellite radio a couple months ago. Its FINALLY available comercially -- PLEASE support quality (independent!) hip-hop and purchase tha song at iTunes!!

For my DJs, here's tha intro edit of Exhibit C -- play it early and often!!!

Jay Electronica, "Exhibit C" (Sake1 DJ Edit) -- produced by Just Blaze

And because its tha holiday season, and WINTER, another (much older) edit as a stocking stuffer =)

Outkast, "Intro (You May Die)" (Sake1 Winter Sadness Edit)

Wanted to let folks know where I will be on NYE, since most people like to party like Keith Richards on that particular night....

Doing an early set with tha fam, Mind Motion and Personal Touch SF at tha Hilton Grand (!!) in downtown SF, featuring a red carpet, and an upscale vibe. For more info on that event, click HERE...

To bring in tha New Year with a BANG BANG BOOGIE, I am very pleased to be rocking later that night at Luka's for NEW YEAR'S EAST...appropriate since 2009 saw Oakland become a world-class destination for music and nightlife. Thrilled to be rocking with superb DJs and homies Platurn and DJ Mere of tha Oakland Faders and some VERY special guests as we count down to 2010 and whyle out as tha new year begins.

EARLY ARRIVAL STRONGLY SUGGESTED!!! LUKA'S IS NOT A HUGE VENUE, SO MAKE SURE YOU ARRIVE IN TIME AND GET IN!!!

Big Trouble in Little Tokyo

Got a chance to spin at Cid Hernandez's new party, BODEGA in Los Angeles this past Sunday night and had a GREAT time! Shouts out to DJ Melaaza, DJ Panamami, Cid Hernandez, Jessica Grande, fellow guest DJ Coleman and all tha friends and family who came out and danced under tha stars! We turned a cold LA night into one of tha warmest spaces i have occupied in a long time...brought a big bag of Coco, Fania, Cotique etc classics and got to rock a gang of em for people my age!!!
