Whatttt is this?! I'm picturing a banana being dipped in chocolate in slow motion in outer space. Very sultry

Went to sleep last night with these tracks playin in my head.  Woke up at 5am, and they are still playin.  Hitting the Pioneer hard today.  There are two people I look up to in this world.  My Pop and this guy.

L.A. Loves...Mark Farina was special not only because it was my first event, in partnership with the Music Institute and Seven Leaves, that I've put together in L.A. but also because it gave me a chance to open for one of my main inspirations: Mark Farina. Mark and I go way back and have played together many times over the years. There's something about opening for someone you know so well that gives any DJ an extra incentive to do it right. Opening is so important to creating the proper atmosphere for any event and it is a lost art. "Killing it", "beating it", "murdering it" have become the end all be all of playing music in a club, at a festival, or at an after hours but setting the stage for the next DJ has become a non option. When done well, an opening set opens every possibility to the headlining DJ. They are not constrained or obliged to change the tempo, lower the volume, or change their plan because the opener has completely lost the plot and gone overboard. You have to know how to lead in and that means sometimes doing some homework, finding out what the headliner is all about so that you can create a hunger for that person's music by being informed, subtle and a little humble. I was lucky enough to be an opener in Chicago for many different styles of DJ and often they were artists I'd studied intently. I take pride in being a good opener just as much as I do in headlining. The two roles are equally important in creating a journey for the dancers, the house heads, and DJ's themselves can join together to make that magic only house music can. It's all about connecting from the 1st track to the last. Hope you dig this!

J-Dub - Opening Set @ L.A. Loves...Mark Farina 2 14 2020

For our second Distrikt Podcast we welcome the exceptional selector @markfarina(mushroom jazz / great lake audio recordings) for a hour and half of his signature blend of house!

Since 1989, Mark Farina has been traveling the globe performing at literally hundreds of shows a year, sometimes DJing both of his preferred styles in two different rooms at the same party. At other events, he's been known to play extended sets that lasted over eight hours. In his House sets, Mark is known for his uniquely effortless journeys on the jazzy side of Chicago House, mixed up San Fran style.

This wandering record minstrel has played to incredible crowds all over the globe. Consistently drawing new fans to his style of chunky-funky rhythms and deep underground house, Mark plays upwards of 200 shows to over one million (1,000,000) club goers per year. Voted in the top 20 DJ's in the world by MUZIK and BPM Magazine, his taste making skills continue to turn the heads of seasoned veterans as well as youngsters just getting into the music.

On CD, Mark has recorded both of his dominant musical personalities. His first mix, 'Mushroom Jazz' on Om Records, is defined by a hip-hop sub-groove with jazzy, dubby elements in the downtempo range. It was followed by 'Seasons', a critically acclaimed House mix. An Imperial Dub mixed CD, a guest slot in the pedigreed 'United DJs of America' series, 'Mushroom Jazz 2' (Om Records) and 'San Francisco Sessions, Vol. I' (Om Records) and Mushroom Jazz 3 (Om Records) to round out the Farina catalog. His past release "Connect" walks the line of San Francisco deeper and the bumpin' funky house sound of Chicago. Now, in November of 2002, Mark Farina releases his much beloved fourth volume of Mushroom Jazz.
