To wit, there’s a feature on them in The Atlantic (which I haven’t had a chance to read yet) and then there’s this self-produced video as well: Congrats to Daptone on their 10 years; here’s to another 10 and beyond. To be sure, Gabe, Neal and all those guys have been very [...] Continue reading DAPTONE @ 10 YEARS
Amen. Had an incredible time at Subsuelo tonight. Every 3rd Wed. at Eastside Luv in Boyle Heights. Easily one of the best parties I’ve been to since I moved back to L.A. Big up to Canyon Cody, Gozar, Ethos, Farah, Kid Gusto and Todd Simon. I saw this footage the past weekend at the Rock N’ Roll Hall of Fame, where I had a gig (which I forgot to list, oops) as part of a Tribute Night for Aretha Franklin.

Not only did I get to DJ with MC Lyte(!) but I met some incredible staff at the HOF. To boot: I was on the same flight as Chaka Khan back [...] Continue reading “WE SHOULD HAVE BEEN A DUO”

I’ll have more to say about all this in a couple of weeks when Adam joins me, in studio, to tape an episode of The Sidebar but this was just too good [...] Continue reading SAMUEL JACKSON READS “GO THE F___ TO SLEEP”
A few housekeeping things for my readers. First, I’m testing out a new way for people to stream audio off the site so that the songs play more like a radio playlist: Streampad. No disrespect to the Yahoo Media Player, which I had been using for years, but what annoyed me about it is whenever I wanted to check my own site via iPad or iPhone, it would load up the player which – being in Flash – wouldn’t work. I could, of course, blame Apple for not supporting Flash but I’m not about [...] Continue reading CHECK THE TECH(NIQUE) |
