I KEPT VERY BUSY IN 2010 AND OVERALL IT WAS A BETTER YEAR THAN THE LAST BUT I KEEP ON FIGHTING. TOURING WITH PUBLIC ENEMY AND A MONTH LONG ASIAN TOUR ARE OBVIOUS HIGHLIGHTS OF THE YEAR, BUT IT GOES WAY DEEPER THAN THAT. IF YOU WANT TO READ ALL ABOUT IT, KEEP RAGING AFTER “THE JUMP”.

REALLY VIBING ON THIS TRACK. MERGING CLASSY AND TRASHY IN A WAY THAT FEELS LIKE NO RULES TO ME. LOVE THE HARDSTYLE KICKS. CAN’T WAIT TO RAGE TO THIS ONE AT A RAVE IN THE WOODS. A GOOD SIGN 4 2K11.

A COUPLE YEARS AGO I MADE A DANCE MUSIC DJ MIX USING ALL VINYL RECORDS FROM MY PERSONAL COLLECTION. A LOT OF B-BOY HOUSE, PRIVATE PRESS BASS, EARLY BMORE, CHICAGO STYLE JACKERS AND BOOTY/GHETTOTECH IN THE MIX. MOST OF THESE RECORDS WERE ACQUIRED IN CHEAPO OR DOLLAR BIN SECTIONS OF RECORD STORES OR THRIFT SHOPS. GROWING UP NEAR CHICAGO HAS ITS BENEFITS. I’M PRETTY SURE MOST IF NOT ALL OF THE TRACKS ON THIS MIX WERE MADE IN BETWEEN 1987 AND 1997 AND LISTENING BACK FOR THE FIRST TIME IN A LONG TIME, IT IS SOUNDING DAMN GOOD. SOME OBSCURE STUFF, SOME MEGA HITS AND SOME THINGS IN BETWEEN PLUS LOTS OF STUPID DJ EFX THAT SEEMED LIKE A GOOD IDEA BACK THEN AND STILL DO NOW SOMETIMES. A LOT OF THESE RECORDS ARE PART OF THE CORE INSPIRATION BEHIND THE JUICEBOXXX AND DRE SKULL TRILOGY OF DANCE MUSIC 12″S. REMEMBER WHEN FUN REALLY WAS FUN? FREE DOWNLOAD BELOW. I STILL DJ OUT ON OCCASION AND I AM AVAILABLE FOR BOOKINGS. NO TRACKLISTING AVAILABLE.

WHAT DOES A SOCCER HOOLIGAN SLICING HIS FACE OPEN ON THE DANCEFLOOR IN THE MIDDLE OF A FOAM PARTY IN IBIZA SOUND LIKE? LAST YEAR I MADE A SONG WITH SUPER PRODUCER AC SLATER AND DIVA AMY DOUGLAS UNDER THE NAME “92 ETERNAL” THAT ANSWERS THAT QUESTION AND MORE. THE SONG IS CALLED “THE FEELING” AND IT IS PUMPED UP POP RAP RAVE OF THE HIGHEST ORDER. ALTHOUGH I HAVE BEEN CONCENTRATING ON MAKING A DIFFERENT KIND OF MUSIC LATELY, I STILL HAVE A LOT OF LOVE IN MY HEART FOR DANCE MUSIC, BOTH CLASSY AND TRASHY. NO RULES. YOU CAN DOWNLOAD THE SONG, AS WELL AS REMIXES BY RAVE LEGEND LUNA-C, KASTLE AND UDACHI ON TURNTABLE LAB DIGITAL HERE.

I RECENTLY DID A REMIX FOR FRENCH ELECTRONIC PUNK BAND WE ARE ENFANT TERRIBLE ON LAST GANG RECORDS. I WENT FOR A HEAVY 4AM JACK-A-THON ACID DARKNESS KIND OF VIBE AND ADDED SOME PITCHSHIFTED VOCALS OF MY OWN. BUY THE LIMITED EDITION 12″ FROM ROUGH TRADE HERE.

I’M PSYCHED TO ANNOUNCE THAT I WILL BE PLAYING A SHOW AT THE EAGLES BALLROOM IN MY HOMETOWN OF MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN ON NEW YEARS EVE WITH THE HEAVY HITTERS GIRL TALK, GREEN VELVET, DJ FUNK AND MANY MORE! THIS SHOW WILL BE OUT OF CONTROL! MORE INFO HERE.

GOOD BAND, EVEN BETTER AT PRE GAME SPEECHES. CHECK OUT THIS CLASSIC FOOTAGE!

CHRISTREATER AND KID MILLIONS ARE TWO MILWAUKEE LEGENDS OF THE GAME THAT HAVE BEEN HAVE BEEN DOING SICK SHIT FOR AS LONG AS I CAN REMEMBER. THEY RECENTLY JOINED FORCES TO START AN AWESOME RECORD LABEL CALLED DOPE FOLKS THAT SPECIALIZES IN REISSUING RARE GOLDEN ERA HIP HOP. DOPE FOLKS HAS PUT OUT THREE RELEASES SO FAR AND EACH ONE IS A BANGER. THEIR FORTH RELEASE BY AN OBSCURE MILWAUKEE RAPPER CALLED ROCK LA FLOW IS COMING OUT SOON AND JUDGING BY THE YOUTUBE VIDEO ABOVE IT IS ONE FOR THE BOOKS. THEY CALL IT “MILWAUKEE’S ILLMATIC” AND THAT IS ENOUGH FOR ME. IT IS INSPIRATIONAL TO SAY THE LEAST TO SEE SOME MUSICAL JEMS FROM THE HEARTLAND BEING UNEARTHED AND PRESENTED FOR THE WORLD TO ENJOY!
