The REFRESH Radio Show (Live Mixed Storefront Radio in NYC)

I used to play hip hop.
Recorded live on December 16th, 2001 at Chaos - 225 East Houston Street, NYC. The Party was called "The Candy Store" and this was the infamous "Happy birthday Goldie" night, celebrating DJ Goldfinger's birthday. Shout to Paul Sevigny, who was not there, but to this day, still yells "Happy birthday Goldie" at me as a result of this recording.

What's Tropical R&B? 
My/your/OUR favorite R&B songs remixed with genres from all over the globe. It's Pan-Latin and Pan-African remixes of R&B and Soul from the Diaspora. It's cute, fun, warm and is flavored by the countries that use spices. 

I've been building this collection since 2009 and had a party in LA with the same theme in 2016. Thought I'd do fan service and start whipping these out for general enjoyment. I've got at least 8 cookin. So stay tuned. 

🎹 Calling djs & producers: If you're an artist interested pointing me to a remix for future mixes, please feel free to dm me your links.

TV OFF - KENDRICK LAMAR (ETHAN TOMAS GQOM REMIX)

The end of 2024 draws to a close and I offer up the seventh version of my yearly mixtape.  It is a pleasure to do these mixes each year and I never really know where they will end up but centred around pieces of music that I picked up over the year, that caught my ear (tracklist below).

This time it leans towards a lot of my own edits made especially for the mix, a few yet-to-released remixes and beautiful music from all over the world. I think there is definitely a focus more on precious, moving music and less towards the dancefloor. Hard to explain why, I tend not to overthink these mixtapes. 

To give you a bit of a look behind the curtain I painstakingly craft each of these mixtapes using Ableton, treating it more like an extended production than just two tracks mixed together. I end up with a sprawling mix of tracks, acapellas, synths, samples and founds sounds. A kind of patchwork of sound. Though only 21 pieces of music this session somehow grew to 162 different racks, from cumbia rhythms to kicks to take a track into a new place.

SqUabBle Up - [CLEAN] RADICAL ONE GLOBAL CLUB MIX 111BPM

Shake It To The Max Remix- Hot This Year Edit

Prepare for launch. Dub Voyager is a deep space transmission from producer rushdj, blending roots dub, turntablism, futuristic sound design, and mystic vibrations into a hypnotic journey across the outer realms. Powered by subsonic basslines, tripped-out delays, and galactic reverbs, this album pays homage to classic Jamaican dub while hurtling it lightyears ahead.

Each track is a star system of its own—coded in riddim, wrapped in haze, guided by an ancient order watching from the shadows. It’s reggae for the next dimension, a spiritual soundtrack for those who spark it, dance with it, or simply drift away.

But this is more than music—it’s a story.

The year is 3042. Earth is on the brink of total collapse. With the planet facing imminent destruction, humanity gathers its brightest minds, essential resources, and fragments of culture to board one final vessel: Dub Voyager. Its mission—to find a new home among the stars. A chance to rebuild. To learn from the past. To begin again.

Infused with turntablism, hip hop, and R&B/soul, this album channels both the pain of collapse and the hope of rebirth. It is the first transmission from Blighted Records—a label born from ruin, built for revolution.

“This is not music. This is a transmission.”
