DJ C “PTS” DJ Mix
I was recently invited to spin-up a set over at Northwestern University’s radio station; WNUR 89.3 FM. My man Jeekoos runs the Part Time Suckers (PTS) radio show there and diligently records the guest DJ sets. He’s got what seems like hundreds of them archived on his website. Their show tends to be dubstep-centric — PTS member, Searchl1te rocked a…
Mashup of the Week: “aBc More”
We’ve got More ABC for you. In case you didn’t notice, Wayne posted an MP3 of Raekwon and Ghostface rapping over the original Jackson 5 version as a comment on my ABC Traffic Jam mashup of the week. Continuing on with that theme I present to you my man Itch13’s (AKA Itchy Fingers) Baltimore Club influenced remix of said tune:…
Totally Paper Rad Dood!
Ben Jones was my roommate. I’m proud to say that ’cause I’m a huge fan of his work. Back when we were at MassArt together he would show his Alfe videos inter-spliced with bits of lo-fi, computer generated psychedelia. There was always something mind-blowing, disturbing, and hilarious about his stuff. We collaborated on the Toneburst parties a bit but not…
Mashup of the Week: “Ghost Woman”
This is more a remix than a mashup, ’cause you’ve most likely never heard the instrumental before. I did a remix for Jill Cunniff from Luscious Jackson a while back and it’s yet to be released (until today, see below). In the meantime I took some vocals from Shabba Ranks and E-40 and dropped them on top of the beat;…
Dakar Bounce
Maga Bo made this great mini-documentary/interview with Senegalese rappers Xuman and Keyti. These guys speak articulately and positely about the globalization of hip-hop, and the cross-breeding of musical influences from around the world. Now with internet, the world is like an international village… I can know what’s going on in Brazil today… I can know what’s happening in China; I…
Body Juke, Britney Work
The other day Murderbot asked me for the a-capella of Body Work; a track that Zulu and I made. I sent it his way and the next day he sent me back 2 remixes. They’re both hot! The first one is a mashup of Zulu’s vocals on top of Britney’s new (“It’s Britney, Bitch”) beat.

In fact, it’s got quite a Boston-bounce to it. Give a listen to it here: [audio:uggc://znfuvg.pbz/nhqvb/Oblm.zc3#30] Then check…

Mashup of the Week: “ABC Traffic Jam”
This one’s a remix of a remix. A friend of mine sent me Stephen Marley’s Traffic Jam Remix ft. Snoop Dawg (which is dope BTW and you can hear it on Stephen’s theirspace page), and he also graced me with the instrumental. Right away I knew I had to do something with it, and what a better combo than the…
