Who else is going to the DMC US Finals today in Berkeley? Cant' wait to see old friends and make new contacts!

Also, I've been helping out with the www.djmuseumlv.com in helping obtain artifacts and memorabilia from the era before digital (radio, studio, mobile etc.). If you feel you've got something you are willing to donate (temporary - permanent) that can be put on display, hit me up and I can get you in contact with the curator! It's time DJ's had an accurate telling of their journey through the years, whether it be the Bay Area, SoCal, E.Coast etc. or any other country. Help make this thrive so the next generations can stay educated!

Some quick vids of me at the annual Beats In the Park. I was actually 3 or 4 songs in of 80's 90's hip-hop when one of the ladies asked if I could play freestyle. I said "Oh hellz yeah!" and it was on after that!

This past Saturday I was invited to hop on to the turntables at the annual Beats In the Park at Niles Community Park, Union City. Thank you to Michael T McCreery for the invite and Record Rockers Crew for even letting me touch their stuff! Lol
Had a great time and felt good to use turntables!

32 years ago today, we were in a showcase battle in San Jose, Ca. facing 3 other strong crews from the Bay Area.
Billy Campero and I practiced for weeks on this routine while Richard Kim drew up and designed concepts of what our setup would look like. We didn't have the most uniform of equipment, with mismatching brands and looks. But it was handsdown the best sounding. We didn't have fancy crane lifts or lasers. We did have access to 2 very nice tricked out cars. I also recall that setting up took around 6 hours with all the unloading and setups. This all culminated into this mix and setup that night. The only advantage we may have had was my turntablism experience from various battles including DMC the previous year (this was before NMS). At the end of the night, we walked away in 1st place with a trophy and a check. Probably one of the greatest night of our DJ lives!

Finally combed through the entire mix and added the track listing (two of them are currently in question and will update later). Probably the one mix I am most proud of due to the amount of cutting and editing I had to do in order to get the lyrics to form a "Love Letter." Apologies for the "bassiness" 😅

Freestyle mix I made back in 1996 using two 1200 Turntables, a Numark 1975 and a Tascam 4 track cassette recorder. Tracks and lyrics of the songs were cut and arranged so as to form an actual love letter to an ex gf that had recently broken up with me. There is A LOT of a capellas layered over instr...
