The track for today�s future dreams

Simon - Free At Last (11MB MP3) What does it take to bring a blogger out of near-retirement? It takes a house track, sometimes. A cut so moving, positive, relentlessly propulsive and yet totally late-night spaced out, that you can’t help but post. Combine such a song with the best memories of said late nights - [...]...

DJ No pays your kitchen a visit

Many of my friends who have come to the parties I’ve had over the last, oh, seven years, will probably recognize the trademark sound of DJ No, also known as my former roommate from Hotlando, New Jersey. Or was that Orlantic City? I forget. The man is a phenomenon of breakbeat inspiration. When all over [...]...

Bean scene or Be seen, Konk is Mean

Konk - Your Life - let’s start this off with a juicy chunk of electro party funk! I’ve noticed a distinct trend toward more thoughtful, regular caffeination since becoming a very busy guy, and a father. So it’s a happy coincidence a local electronic musician whose work I really enjoy also happened to be on a [...]...

Podcast: Logan 5 Live at Freakbeat October

I have no idea why I sat on this, except to say that the last month has been a whirlwind of DJ gigs both public and private; first, a kick-ass Halloween party in a cyberpunk saloon and most recently, playing jazzy breaks at the CSU, Chico Sustainability Conference. On the community-building tip, the last two [...]...

Today�s Tantric Tarot Treat, Tomorrow�s Freak Beat

Download Tantra - The Tarot Suite (37 MB 320Kbps MP3) The band Tantra was Italian producer Celso Valli’s wicked project of psychdelic electro disco/rock… seriously, this is proto-beardo at its best. Although Tantra is best known for “Hills of Katmandu”, especially the super-long Patrick Cowley mix (proto-beardo meets proto-acid-energy, whoa!), I discovered them via the much [...]...

The concept of "threesies" is this: when I play records with other people, I like to trade every 3 records because in 3 records you can set a context for each track, change directions or progress in a certain way, or at the least get to x-fade both ways on the mixer. So where other audio [...]...
