HEAVY WEIGHT

DJ Rashad was and still is a legend.  Not only was he a Footwork and Juke pioneer but also one of the hardest working DJs and producers I've ever met.  The dude really never stopped working.  He was either globetrotting and spreading the sound of Chicago around the world or in the lab pushing himself to expand his sound further and further.  On April 26 2014 the world lost one of the most inspiring and talented artists of our time.  His spirit moves through Teklife, the dancers, his friends and everyone he has touched or influenced.

Over the past few years I've been lucky enough to collaborate with Rashad and even be remixed by him.  The tracks were never completely finished and seemed impossible to finish after he passed.  Eventually I mustered up enough courage to open the sessions and finish them.  It is what Rashad would have wanted me to do.  

"Movin' Forward" is a collection of those collaborations plus two exclusive unreleased Machinedrum tracks that were heavily inspired by Rashad and the Teklife crew.  I called it "Movin' Forward" because I know Rashad wants everyone he touched to keep pushing themselves and follow in his footsteps on the path he had been creating all these years.  I'm proud to have known him, shared the stage with him and to have collaborated with him.  May his sound and spirit continue to inspire and spread through everyones speakers!  Teklife to tha next life!!

Understand is the first track off of 'Movin' Forward',  out on Friday April 24th. 100% proceeds will go to his family and estate.

Machinedrum - All I Really Want

I'm not timely with this mix. It is long after the rap's been spit, yet how can you not try to wrestle with the words and see if they might be purposed to today? Speed and plosives here. Mid deranged kicks and distorted toms. Lots of little moments as I try to better my craft.

Fun fact. In high school I was in a jazz quartet called "Tres Gatos" (a name that never made sense) with Terrace Martin who kept playing incredible saxophone and features all over's Kendrick's albums. Hearing his output over the years has been an inspiration.

Happy Valentines Day everyone.  Love takes a new meaning.

As heard on my Boiler Room mix from December 2011.  I wanted my DJ buddies to have a chance to play it out for a while before giving it to the world for free.
