Best Digging Story:
I spent so much time and money in one spot that the owner gave me a small box of Blue Note records he just got in. My favorite of that bunch was “Moon Rappin'” by Brother Jack McDuff
Favorite Mix and Why. Any Genre, Any DJ.
Lord Sear did an 80’s mix. He didn’t name it anything in particular but I could listen to that mix on repeat for hours. Blends were impeccable and the selection was everything from The Eurythmics to I Level.
LP, 12”, or 7” format?
YES!!!
Junk Food You Can’t Live Without:
Oatmeal Creme Pies and Fudge Rounds.
Most Memorable Gig Played:
Back in 2002 I did the Sonar Festival in Spain. About 2000 in the spot all jamming to Funk and underground hip hop. My set was right before Carl Cox. He killed it of course!
Record That Never Leaves Your Record Box:
There’s always a P-Funk record around. I never want to do a party where P-Funk doesn’t work in some way form or fashion.
