Rad bych s tebou tancil.
Believe it or not, when I was working as a DJ, I was making mixes like crazy.
I made this mix to kind of sum up my nights at Tulip Cafe. I was working the 9pm to 7am shift which means you play a lot of damn music and you cover every genre imaginable. The waitress there Monika was always really cool and really dug the music – made my drinks real strong. My buddy Pavel was also a big fan of what we were doing, so this mix was like my thank you to them.
Pavel, see you soon.
Monika, where are you?
And if all goes according to plan (o’Hare!!!!), I should be in this mixes homeland as it’s being posted.
Více Basu!

Part 1

This one was a birthday present to my main man Mr. Koral North. Mixed using the same setup (Vestax PMC 05 Pro – II fed by single turntable vinyl controlled DjDecks).
This one is all hip-hop and stuff that fits at that tempo (Four Tet is not the most gangster thing in the world). It’s dark and banging, taking the thematic elements from BU002 logically further. I really enjoyed making this and I got to holler at my boy Cody NuNu for keeping this spirit alive.
And a younger, scratch-initiating Noggin on the cuts (thanks Dirtstyle Shampoo breaks).

This is the last WIP mix I did to send back home from Praha. Mixed via a Vestax PMC-05 mk II, fed from DJ Decks being controlled by one turntable.
Healthy mix of house, idm, oldies, and as you might remember, some comedy at the end.

Date: 2008

Short mix (~40min) I put together in the Spring time in Cali.
Lots of experimental stuff going on here. It’s wholly DJDecks (R.I.P.!!!), though mixed externally with a Vestax VMC 185 XL (coming yer way Trypset). In my opinion, that mixer is the instrument that wants to be played, and the tracks are like the strings that you apply and tune to make the instrument sing what you need it to.
This thing runs the gamut from nu-folk to straight house to indie jams. I was pretty happy with it. The name and glitches come from my internal stasis that year.
