Hifi Sean Ft. Paris Grey - Lost Without You (The Carry Nation Dub Mix)

The last time I rocked an Insomniac festival was in 2004 for EDC at NOS next to the lake, and every year since the 20th Anniversary at Camp OG at Nocturnal Wonderland I always give up my DJ time slot so I could focus on my photography duties for our Camp OG Family and to give others DJs a chance to shine at Camp.

This year for our Insomniac 30th Anniversary Celebration my brother James (Our Fearless Leader of Camp OG) and my brother Mikey insisted that I rock a Drum & Bass set alongside our Insomniac Camp OG DJ Family, for our Crew and the GA campers next to the Lake at NOCTURNAL WONDERLAND on Saturday September 16th from 12pm to 1pm. I had a blast coming back HOME to rock a set for my Camp OG Family... 🙂

Quiet Contemplating

Welcome to the Collectors Volume 2 in our Guest Mix Series.
We proudly introduce RMN (pronounced Are-Men). Emerging from the bedroom to the living room and sharing some of his essential tunes from what is clearly a quality curated and very well seasoned collection.

Armen comes to us in a time capsule, with a set of records mostly from the 90's. Reaching back for a set of some personal Chicago and East Coast classics that refuse to get stale we go from deep and funky to soulful and tribal.  Born into a dance-orientated culture he grew up banging on hand drums at gatherings.  In college, in the mid 90s, the discovery of the underground had a life-path-altering effect as he and his crew of rowdy misfits journeyed the New England region often in search of the unifying force on the dancefloor.   As tastes matured the realization that what the legends at Shelter, Loft, Cajual, Strictly Jaz Unit and Body & Soul are doing resonated the most.  The record collecting goes back 3 decades but the focus has always been the dancefloor rather than the limelight.  
Advanced stage music appreciation is now more occasionally done in dark rooms of Los Angeles, where floor-work and -baby powder are uncommon, with the sentimentality for the golden era always nagging.  
Selections of this blend include  Abacus, Claussell, GU, Kupper, Feliciano, Harley & Muscle, M&M, Fiasco, Jovonn, Marlon D will resist your instinct to be a wallflower.   So, turn it up, don't sit back, and enjoy.
