Awesome show this past week. These three brought the heat respectively and had more in common then we really knew. It was a cosmic connection to say the least and one special night of radio. Mostly accurate playlist here. Listen to the audio below:
Josh Dunn kicked it off with some dubbed out disco and weird vinyl digs. Come to find out in addition to the work Josh does with Wax Poetics, he's also the curator the of the well designed and content rich 100 Liousines, one of my fave blogs for some time now. Hoping to hear more from Josh in the future!
Bennet4$enate is no stranger to the airwaves, having put in appearances on WNYU's A Downtown Affair, and Broken Tape Decks on WFMU. He busted out some classic disco and dance jams along with some crazy youtube digs. Straight hits from Bangs, Tonetweakers, and PSA's on for the upcoming job fair holler! Watch the Serious Business blog for updates on that crew and Bennett's new nights blasting off at the new Knitting Factory in Brooklyn.
Sobs finished us off with hip hop set heavy on the east coast flavors. He's put out a mixtape bigging up his east coast journey which I've just linked too over at Fully Fitted. He's down in New York this week so hit up his myspace for all the dates and locals. Don't miss him while he's in the belly!
Thanks again to these guys for coming out. It was great times I'd sit in a room and wear parkas with these dudes any day! I'm gonna be gone for the holiday but back soon after so see me on the next.
This coming week, a mind meld of mind melds. Bennet4$enate and Josh Dunn both formerly of Wax Poetics in the building, and the big Texan himself Sober repping Decade Clothing as well as Shake Em Down visual coordinator (his latest offering aint half bad).
All established DJ's themselves as well as procurors of records, mags, art direction, music, art and illustration, the topics and tunes might fly all over. Get the full rundown on these dudes, the dirt, and the live dates this coming Wednesday!

Evaready and Beat Perv on the airwaves
Two weeks ago was a doozy. Both Evaready and Beat Perv live DJing on the air. Gems dropping all over the place. Took me a while to get this up here as per usual. Forgive the dropouts/changes in audio levels form the top we were battling some bad cables starting out. Playlist is also gonna have to wait it's lost in Serato somewhere!
As stated in the program these guys are starting to infultrate the Boston area so be sure to check their respective links to find out what they have upcoming. If all your local attempts fail hit up Red Door in Portsmouth to catch one of their many residencies there.
Back no the air this Wed eve. Maybe with some secret special guests in tow? I'll keep ya updated...

Beat Perv and Evaready?
Heading to the station in a few! Will be joined by the Drunk and Focused family so be sure to tune in at 10!
See the playlist from a few weeks ago. And watch this space for the freshness from this week!
New York's golden Cumbia boys, and the team behind the Que Bajo parties in Brooklyn, Uproot Andy and Geko Jones are on tour as we speak! Mostly hitting up the south and west coasts, including a stop in the deep south. Grab their free remix of Manuelita to see what you might be in for if you catch one of these guys live. Highly recommended! Full tour dates are posted atRemezcla, but I have it on good authority that Uproot Andy is headed back from Argentina and straight over to the ICA for their next Experiment party! Latin/German beats should be interesting. And homeboy Sammy Bananas remix of Lady Gaga blazing it up over on the Hype Machine. Too explicit for airplay but it's great to see this once DIYremixer and DJ turned small label sensation get some mainstream love and grander internet recognition. Go get em Sammy! Note: after I reading the wikipedia on Lady Gaga I think I get it now.
If you tuned in tonight, you didn't hear me. Kern's now holds down the NCP2 slot every other Wednesday. Put the word out on the air last week but am late to the blog on it so sorry for if the switch is seems sudden. My reasons for reducing the number of radio shows in the month are many and include but are not limited to the amount of live DJing I've been doing, partially for fun and partially to pay the bills. I've also got some other projects bubbling in the ways of original music and mixes that may come to fruition in the near future. In the meantime I'll be with you every other week and watch Fully Fitted for everything else!
