Giving Back

For what it’s worth, I’ve always felt it’s been important to give back, whether that be with donating money or time to worthwhile causes and organizations. But because of the current climate right now I think it’s time to step it up a bit. And I’ve been inspired by so many of my selfless friends, and in this particular case, my homeboy Dave Nada. So…

For the remainder of 2017 at least, 10% of all my earnings from all my DJ gigs will be donated to charitable causes in whatever market I’m playing in. Whatever city I’m in, I’ll identify a worthwhile cause and make sure they see this money directly from my pocket.

Songs We Listened To A Lot In 2016

Songs We Listened To A Lot In 2016 by Skratch Bastid & Cosmo Baker

Once again back it’s the incredible. You already know what it is. We hope. This being our 5th one, and with a title like that, do we really need to tell you what it is? SWLTALI is a series we have grown to look forward to annually. A mix that tells the story of our musical experience ver the past year. New stuff, older stuff; just great music that we played, loved, revisited, shared, and are now sharing again in the form of this carefully curated and mixed 2 hours and 31 minutes. We hope you enjoy these tunes as much as we do, and if you like an artist’s music contained within, find a way to support them.

Boiler Room Philly

I was honored to play for the Philadelphia debut of Boiler Room last night at The Foundry, alongside my brother Matthew Law, Joie Kathos, Kur and The Magnificent DJ Jazzy Jeff. For those that missed the event we Facebook Live streamed it. Here you go!

New Mix – WKDU 91.7 FM 2016 Electronic Music Marathon

Each year, WKDU 91.7 FM  holds a 72+ hour mix show marathon to raise money for a partner charity as well as to raise funds for the radio station and this year the charity was for PAWS – the Philadelphia Animal Welfare Society. I was so happy and honored to have been able to play a role in supporting such a worthy cause for the second year in a row. Thanks to all the hard work of the entire WKDU Philadelphia 91.7FM staff, especially Chris Burrell as well as all the listeners, DJs, donors and supporters for the #2016EMM.  This year raised $2500 which is enough money to help take care of 100 rescued animals until they find their forever homes – and gave us an opportunity to present them with a BIG ASS CHECK.

I was honored to have been able to play a set for the marathon and here it is for your listening enjoyment. Most of the stuff that I played here in this set is like the kinda stuff that I’m playing these days. I love this stuff.
