Coming To You Live (1980)Woo-hah.
DJ Eleven started the weekend early, with a dope hip hop set Wednesday night. Friday was the main event with Eli Escobar who delivered a bangin three hour set (btw check out Holy Ghost! Nick droppin gems in the comments section of his April 19 post). Saturday I took the plane down to Gothenburg, Sweden to play a soul & disco set at Nefertiti. The party was packed and it was great to see people goin wild for forgotten classics such as this. Thanks to everybody who showed up.
Tomorrow I’m on the move again, on my way to China. I’ll be playing Shanghai and Beijing together with my Top Billin homie Flipperi and the New Judas crew. Looking forward to this.
Here’s a little gem from last year you might have missed.
Neon Neon: I Lust You (Eli Escobar Remix)(265vbr)
Also, I’ll be at Nefertiti in Gothenburg, Sweden, tomorrow Saturday doing a classic disco & soul set. Locals get at me via email for guestlist & whatnot.
And once more for all of you who missed this the first time around, the impeccable Stand Back Remix:
Another perfect example of a disco dub just murdering the vocal version. RIP Tee Scott.
This is one the first rips on a new set up I’m testing here, including a vintage Formula Sound PM-90 mixer. I’m liking the results, and included the lossless version for those of you who care. Feedback appreciated as always.

Theme song:
The Dells: Free & Easy (1971)
Real smooth new mix by homie Mike B. I’ve had this on repeat all day.
Pinchers: Bandelero + Version (1991)
I’ve been ripping a ton of R&B; lately. There’s a bunch of stuff I wanted to post, but for now I opted for this little triplet of choice Jay-Z guest spots from the era of R&B; remixes and throwback beats. Two out of the three build on classic Biz Markie loops and the third one totally jacks Computer Love, to good effect of course. The Mya remix was the biggest hit obviously and still gets some spins, the other two I don’t ever hear anywhere really…
