"Reduce intellectual and emotional noise
until you arrive at the silence of yourself,
and listen to it." - Richard Brautigan

One sweet dive

Surface tension

Fuzzy logic

A fully formed bee

JP SOUL: SPÆCIAL MIX 93

This set was recorded live at an underground weekly after-show called Etch A Sketch which started sometime in late 92 by Scott Leitzke & James Heth.  The weekly was held in a vacant basement of a building in the gaslamp area of downtown san diego. Despite the dodgy name and the fact it started in the wee hours of the morning, it was a very fun, but short lived night which offered music and a "free breakfast cereal bar" which was a pretty unique idea at the time. The djs on this particular night, if my memory serves me correctly, was DJ Xstatic aka Daeman, Joey Jimenez & myself. This was the era I was constantly being billed as the "sunrise" dj and you can hear why on this mix. Lots of deep / early morning house classics here plus a few other surprises. This mix has never seen the light of day until now. I hope you get a kick out of hearing this mix which is just a few months past 19 years in age. A big thanks goes to Nathalie Schroeder for lending me her copy of this cassette tape since I had lost mine years ago in a move. 

Mark E Quark - Live Nov 1992 Part 1

2 Block Radius-Nicole Mason, Tee Cardaci, and Tom Cloutman (aka Schnezzy)-keep the spirit of San Francisco alive. 2 Block Radius is the sound of a waterfront party at sunset, the smell of old vinyl and warm skin, or the feel of a hoodiepulled tight against an incoming fogbank. Like the city itself, the music is an appealing mass of contradictions: laidback yet sultry, accessible yet subversive.
Nick, Tee, and Schnezzy are fixtures in the SF dance-music scene. As residents of the long-running party Low Down Grooves, they ruled the booth at legendary DJ bar The Top from 1999 through 2004. Those Wednesday nights were an intimate forum to play for true heads, close friends, and the occasional random street personalities (including one regular drifter who sometimes wandered in to accompany their DJ sets on his accordion). Drawing from those fond times, 2 Block Radius formed as a proper studio production team in 2000, when they released their first album, Crossed Wires, on their eponymous imprint, 2 Block Radius Recordings. Picking up cues from jazz, hip-hop, dub, and the street sounds that surround them, 2 Block Radius create downtempo and house that layers soulful vocal murmurs over lacquered breaks and chunky bass lines. Rhythms sway ever so slightly, from lightly energized to lackadaisical, but maintain that warm, syncopated tempo that epitomizes the classic SF sound.
In addition to releasing two more albums via their own label, 2 Block Radius have appeared on OM Records (”You Can’t Have Your Cake,” OM Lounge, Vol. 8, 2004) and Clean Recordings (”Woowah Hustle,” Clean Recordings Sampler, 2003). In 2004, 2 Block Radius produced the compilation 6 Blocks Deep, a showcase of local talent including E.T.I., Audio Angel, and PacificSound’s Galen and Omar. Nowadays, the members of 2 Block Radius are scattered across the globe-Tee resides in Brazil and Nick has returned to the UK, while Schnezzy still calls California home. Their sound, however, remains rooted in a two-block radius, somewhere, no doubt, at the corner of Haight Street and Fillmore.
