“Seattle’s Best Funk Dance Party”
May 7th, 2010
LOFI
429 Eastlake Ave.
Seattle, WA.
Was honored and blessed to be invited and spin records with the DUG team.
These dudes DIG! I mean deep. And the people responded!
The spot was packed & jumping, the dance floor felt like a trampoline!
It was a beautiful scene!
One of the funnest nights I’ve had playing music…so far.
This 60 minute mix is just a small dose of what you might have heard from me that beautiful evening.
Enjoy!
Peace/Respects to the DUG crew: DJs Greasy, David James, Christian Science, and Jon Francois Stone.

Sun Rare EP vol. 1
Sun Rare Records, Japan
Featuring Rasco, Dizzy Dustin (Ugly Duckling), Raw Produce, Himuki, & exclusive T-Bone Steak & EarDRumz remixes of the Dizzy Dustin track, REMEMBER!
I put together two remixes of REMEMBER when first approached with this. I personally like the HI-LITE remix best, but Sun Rare went with the KOMAKU remix.
But don’t fret, your pets!
I made the HI-LITE remix available for your downloading pleasure, but if you want the other songs, pick up the wax!! Peas!

I’m getting one of these…
Even though this really does sound like Charlie Brown’s teacher singing Gnarls Barkley, its still pretty filthy! Check holmes rocking the MPC 1000! ha!
Just when you think you got some fuckin’ “donuts” in your lil’ tackle box…DJ Muro attacks!! This video, to me, is yet another example of why he’s crowned King Of Diggin’! Mucho uppers to DJ Muro! Microphone Pager still gets steady bumpage!
*video does eventually get into focus, and sound quality is shit, but hey baby, I LIKE IT RAW! deal with it…*
Peace & Much thanx to Rick & everybody @ Rainbo Records (they pressed Vinyl Vixens!). Putting in another order soon!
