Into The Deep - Part One

I was just starting to dust off gear and started going to my boy's house to play some of his golden era crates on his serato set up. First time working on code vinyl and I was having a good time trying to figure things out.  I was just getting used to the mixer and practicing some scratches that he was MUCH better at when one of my friends told me he was running the NYC marathon. I felt like that would give me a chance to record for the first time in a LONG time so I told him I'd whip up a mix for a part of his run. This thing was recorded on an old AKAI digital recorder, then burned and uploaded for my boy to download. I lost the original recording and just ran this through audacity with some help from Scott Maison and here it is. Raw and uncut...my tribute to NY hip hop, recorded in 2017with excitement and love for the sounds that raised me. Tracks from Brand Nubian, Nas, Black Moon, AfuRa, DiamondD, Gangstarr,the mighty De La Soul and I had to sneak in a little west coast rhyming from The Pharcyde among others. Enjoy!

Run NYC in 2017

Later this month, I will be hosting a show on HYDE FM called Workshop where I talk about and play some of the music that influenced and continues to influence my music journey. I hope you will join me on the HYDEFM app to listen, explore and work through some new and old music in my workshop. 1st show coming Thursday June 1st!
Full Playlist for this mix coming soon!

Workshop

Found this Doc Martin mix from 2001 in my archives and since it was ready to share, here it is. I'll probably just have it up for a few weeks but it was loads of fun to listen to again so I thought I'd share for any Doc fans to tune in for. 
Big love to the Sublevel family and of course Doc and Syl who hold it down around the world!

Doc Martin Essential Mix 2001

It's been gray, gray, gray here on the central coast of California for what seems like an eternity. The marine layer is socked in and it's feeling like winter still. This mix is an inspiration for blue skies, sunny days, warm nights and drinks with friends. I'm ready for summer to begin!
