If you’re wondering why blog posts here at Mashit have been less-than-frequent recently, here’s a little background: Over the last couple years my life has undergone some quantum shifts. For example, I’ve transitioned from full-time DJ, music-blogger/producer, to full-time Creative Director at an economic development organization. I also became a husband and a home-owner. These new roles are super-exciting, fun,…
New Release: DJ C “Jump Up & Bounce” / “Mad Again” 10-inch & Digital
New 10-inch vinyl/digital record from DJ C on the London-based West Norwood Cassette Library label. FACT Magazine has given the record, and the label, a glowing review: When your first release is something so self-defining and, well, excellent, it’s easy to get painted into a corner … where to go next, without making carbon copies or simply letting everyone down?…
Kid Kameleon “Extremely Small and Precise Sounds Part 2” DJ Mix
Back in ’07 Mashit partnered with Kid Kameleon and the London-based music and culture portal, Spannered to bring you 2 mixes of low-end revelry. Now we’ve decided to ally once again. Kid K is back with the bass, but this time the treble is tweaked in a most explicit manor. The sounds are “extremely small and precise.” That’s how the…
Must Be The Beer
I had an interesting experience DJing in Portland, OR last night. It was similar to something I once witnessed at a gig in Ghent, Belgium. The more wild, crazy, hard & heavy I was willing to go with the music, the more the crowd responded and danced. The opposite is generally the norm in Chicago, Boston, and really most places…

It’s 2010; Time for Bass!
I’m playing at Smartbar here in Chicago tomorrow. It’s gotta be just about the best sound-system in the city to hear massive dubstep bass on, so you just might need to swing by and shake a leg if you’re anywhere in the greater Mid-West area.

Party Like It’s 19-Naughty-9
I’m headed to a New Years Eve party in Brooklyn tonight and was asked if I had a danceable version of “Auld Lang Syne” to drop at midnigt. I didn’t. Instead I made this medly of some memorable pop hits from the last decade, kicked off by a classic, Glen Miller version of “Auld.” Enjoy, and happy new year! MP3…
