Hey! I'm so glad you reached out. I'm actually making memes about berghain/UK garage/ketamine right now, and I don't think I can hold appropriate space for you. Could we connect [later date or time] instead / Do you have someone else you could reach out to?
i will go sherlock fucking holmes to find a song that i like in a mix, and some of yall wont even click "show more" on soundcloud to see if the tracklist is there 😩

!! thx to the artists involved & all who bought the comp💖 keep supporting local orgs/ppl doing the work, investing in Black communities & pushing for defunding police!
Your fiancé gets kidnapped in a foreign country. You stay out till 2 am searching w authorities but eventually you have to call it. A Discogs notification pops up for a mint “Anti War Dub” for 20$- do you buy it?
I’m honor of earth day I’m gonna fly thousands of miles to play mp3s and help real estate developers rebrand industrial areas as hot new neighborhoods 😌
just remembered the time someone asked me to cover DJing for them last minute but didnt tell me it was the smiths night -- the most awkward 3 hours of my life where someone came up to request the smiths every 30 seconds ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Look sorry I have to do this but from now on you can re-story three (3) crowd vids of yourself DJing per gig and that’s the limit.... I just can’t take it anymore😓
Every boomer I talk to seems to thinks the whole situation is an overreaction and every young person I talk to is perfectly willing to upend their whole shit and go into financial ruin to save the lives of a generation that voted for Biden 😑
Ok I know none of us want to talk about it but fellow djs & promoters — do we have a moral imperative to shut it down this weekend? the financial implications (not to mention the upcoming weeks/months) will be devastating but rly we can’t play dumb at this point right??

We are the “sorry Ben UFO has no avails for those dates but we have a couple of other names on the roster that might fit, let me know if any of these will work” your parents warned you about 😈
It literally boggles my fuckin mind when ppl pretend that dance music used used to be some sacrosanct thing where an anonymous djs emerged from clouds of smoke to play white labels while the audience closed their eyes... it’s been pop music and superstars since ‘big fun’ bud
spent 2 hours going thru crates of the worst early 2000s house records at the thrift store because I knew there was gonna be a perfect UKG remix someone accidentally A&R’d buried in there and I was right 😌
Noticed that people have been looking for places to send their dollars to help -- obvi bail funds do essential work but many of them seem overwhelmed with donations rn so i put together a google doc of some orgs that do work with black communities & causes
because its 2006(?) i started a blog to discuss and give away some of my collection of white labels & bootlegs. 1st up is booty bass cover of "Don't Speak" by No Doubt & a few thoughts on Florida/NJ music
new mix: 100% tracks by my fav songwriter phil lynott of thin lizzy. a massive influence on the sound of rock/power pop, misremembered as 1 hit wonder & like so many black artists excluded from the popular narrative. hope yall love these as much as i do 💙
4:25 am-playing thievery corporation as the final track of the night someone hold up a note on their phone “YOU COULD GO HARDER” then leans over the booth and says “I’m a dj I know what I’m talking about”
