Happiness Is....

A nice trail run in Pacifica up to a blue-sky view of the craggy cliffs and surf spray of the Pacific Ocean.

For those of you who live nearby the Pacific Ocean and haven't been there lately... YOU'RE MISSING OUT.

Let's Play Another Game of Tradeoff Shall We?

I've been living in my place for two years now and my downstairs neighbour has been there for a year now at least... Maybe 1.5 years. One the one hand I'm lucky cuz I've DJed @ 3 AM on Saturdays with no issue.

I gave him my number a long time ago and told him to call me if there was an issue. That's the other hand... On the other hand he's now calling me. For the second time in two weeks.

Last night I came home in a great mood to play my new records... Yes, it was 10 PM on a Monday. He called me round about 11 PM I think.

I think the thing I'm bugged about is how low the volume was. I've played way louder than that in the last couple of years... On a weekend, @ 3 AM, with friends.

I'm hoping it is the late/Monday night factor because it would be really sad if something that makes me so very happy becomes a problem!

The thing to keep in mind is that I don't like the music that loud and am constantly bickering with people about having the music too loud.

Wish me luck on this.

EOM Sessions on Deep Mix FM

Special Thanks to the Black Mamba and Chris Leath for having me down to the EOM Sessions last night! No, I didn't have records with me but it's always a treat to be there... The Leath's and friends (A., C., Stevian) are quite talented officianados of techno and many things electronic. And the studio they broadcast it out of is just hella dope!

These internet radio shows do a lot for the music scene in the bay area! They get our music out to the rest of the world as well as giving us yet another venue to play our new schtuffs...

Speaking of which I'll be on the EOM Sessions on 3 April 2008 with residents Chris & Paul! You'll be able to catch it on Deep Mix FM.com from 8 - 10 PM.

a pic from Temple

a friend took this @ Temple recently:



other pictures were taken but it wasn't a good picture night for me... between broken head phones and people in/out of the DJ booth every 30 seconds it was all I could do to be polite and mix... the bummer is that people are saying the most awesome things.... "great set, dope tracks, what have you..." it's just that it's very difficult and distracting regardless!

just FYI... for the same reason you don't go talk to a cellist while she/he is playing with the symphony, you don't talk to your DJ while she/he is mixing. why? cause she can't listen to music and the conversation you are trying to have with her at the same time.

i think i'm getting a sign to wear around my neck that says "DJ @ work".

yes, really.
