House to Hip Hop this week. Started it off with a classic house track from back in the day, one that’s near and dear to my heart. Then just kept it rolling…

Really like the flow of this show. Kicked it off with some disco jams for a funkin’ good time before rolling through some midtempo breaks. Then hit you up with some hip hop and new joints from around your way.

Lotsa catching up to do! This one’s house then hip hop, which kind of seems a favourite progression of late for the show.

This week we started it off with some dance and disco before dropping things down into some hip hop. I’m really loving the latest album Chrome Waves from Kraak and Smaak. Lots of tastiness to be had on that one. Had to drop a bit of Digital Underground since I’ve had a couple of conversations recently about how they’re totally slept on.
Towards the end of the show, Nicole from Mpact Dance dropped by to talk about their plans to create an arts center for at risk youth called The Lab. The project’s been selected as a semi-finalist in a competition for grant money from Aviva and the group hope to reach out to the hip hop community and beyond to garner votes for the project. Voting is super easy for Facebook types, and the voting period runs Dec. 2nd to December 11th. Those interested in supporting the project should visit their facebook page, vote4thelab.com or the Aviva page itself.

Kicked it off with some nice 80s vibes this week before dropping it down into some hip hop. We talked a bit last week about all the crazy hip hop albums that came out in ’93. Well, this week it was Snoop Dogg’s Doggystyle, so you know I had to drop a ‘lil bit of that in the hip hop set. Plus a whole bunch of other goodness.

This is the second half of the Road Pops for the week, plus the regular Fat Beat Diet, seeing as both shows flowed right into one another this week.
I’ve fascinated by the intersection of two songs. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. Timing is important: ride the mix a little too long and you run the risk of ruining the mix because of song changes, not to mention the mix running away from you. I tend to like pushing my luck with the length of my mixes, but it came back to bite me in the ass a few times this week.
A lot of DJing is experimentation, throwing a couple things together and seeing if you like the result. Now that I’m pretty much retired from the DJ game, I don’t get the chance to experiment a lot outside of the show. The downside for you listeners being of course that you get to listen to me miss a few mixes here and there as I try out new mixes. Hopefully it doesn’t detract too much from your enjoyment of the show.
1993 was an absolutely ridiculous year for hip hop. So, this last week we celebrated the release of A Tribe Called Quest’s Midnight Maurauders and Wu Tang Clan’s Enter the 36 Chambers. After that more musical goodness. Enjoy.
