The deep, deep early sasha-digweed vibe on this one is no accident: 6 of 18 tracks are legendary classics from the 2000-2005 era. 

A sound so impactful, it compelled me to start producing and DJing and everything I've done in dance music since. 

Here I freshened it up by blending them in with newer tracks, feverishly layering & chopping the last 15 minutes to hear them in a new context, and slowing it all down from the 126-130 bpm hyperspeed freight train so trendy at the time.

Waveforms - February 2025 - Josh Von Guest Mix - friskyRadio

I've helped clients around the world with Ableton Live services.

Friends and peeps I have done work for include Brian Transeau (BT), Bill Hamel, John Graham, Alexander 'Sasha' Coe's Involved (charity benefit tour), Danny Howells, Nick Warren, AK1200, and others.

Starting in 2005 I produced some tracks, put a few records out. I was also low-key obsessed with the DJ set as art form, using Live as a tool to harmonize, restructure and re-edit tracks together in realtime ie. non-linear mixing or 'shuffle mixing'.

At one point I developed a custom 17 inch touchscreen + hardware controller setup to do it live on stage and in the studio. Played gigs around Orlando and Central Florida for a bit.

On my sets mixes are harmonized and tracks deconstructed / reconstructed in new sequences by skipping back and forward through the waveforms. I prepare samples to drop throughout.

After mixing I do post-production, fine tune the samples and/or produce additional parts to fit. Then I master the output to make it pump and shine.

I've chilled on it in recent years other than the sets. But people ask me what I've been up to and want me to keep it coming. 

I'm still obsessed with the art of the DJ set. So here they are.
