Here’s the recording of my live set from Happy Ending Fridays at Fortune Sound in Vancouver. It’s a pretty fun mix if I do say so myself! The guys at Fortune have a great thing going, and the premise of their Happy Ending party is kind this free-flowing thing musically. Basically all over the map from dance music, rap music, classics and shit like that. So this mix is really all sorts of crazy shit and fun party music. I love live mixes, but I always think that they never quite do justice in capturing the energy and essence of the live experience. Like man, “This sounds good, but boy you should have BEEN there…” Well, since I’m going to be back there in April, hopefully you will be. And special thanks to DJ Marvel from The Freshest crew for holding me down on this one as well. Okay, enjoy!
This past Friday I had the pleasure of doing a guest DJ slot on the very hip A Downtown Affair radio show on WNYU. Thanks to Mick McGill and Tackleberry for having me on to play some of my favorite tunes as well as throwing some custom edits out there on the airwaves for the first time ever (cue the Mister Magic drop, “A world premier… a world premier…”) It was a stone groove, and now they have the mix up and running on their site for you to listen to. It’s better than what I expected haha. Also make sure to peruse the archives cause they have a bunch of dope mixes from a great list of guests. So check below for the show with my and Rahaan from Chicago’s mixes. Enjoy!
