Bassmint 1.5 at Push Gallery, downtown Phoenix at First Fridays

I was happy to make it out to Bassmint 1.5 and see a lot of old friends. I have a few pictures up. These make me really want to invest in a much better camera… but it is the fun that matters! Two DJ stages, fine art decorating the walls, and great people to have [...]

Class of ’88 .pdf

I can’t remember exactly how I came across this ebook, but it is an amazing and seldom known tale of how the underground party scene around London began. Class of ’88 is the story of the true acid house experience. It was available for free from a website that no longer exists, so here’s a [...]

Planning to completely redo my blog.

Although I’ve discovered some plugins that give a better user experience, such as Google’s Friend Connect and utilizing Google’s hosted AJAX libraries as well as 3 static content redirects to Lighttpd, I still dislike how my posts are being displayed. I have a queue of technical articles to write, and I have been considering using [...]

My two favorite progressive shoutcast stations

Evolved.fm used to be XTC London Radio and changed sometime quite mysteriously. I lucked out as to find an old playlist file with an IP address that was being used. I’ve been listening to this station since 2000. Click this to open up the stream! ETN.fm has a Progressive Channel as well. What’s great about [...]

Come join my new Dj Mixes Sub-reddit at Reddit.com!

I decided to make a DJ Mix Subreddit at Reddit.com so people can post links to podcasts or other dj mixes. I hope it catches on.

Great mention of my own IRC sillyness

<@chip> oh man. Seriously? You’re saying frak unironically?

When DJs Ruled The World

I agree with the comments about a news article from The Independent called “When Djs ruled the world” made by Global Raver. Now, take a look at the title again. “When DJs Ruled the World”. Given that all examples refer to a handful of British clubs and British DJs, the allusion to “rulling the world” [...]

My Battlestar Galactica Series Finale review

I wrote up a spoiler filled mini-review over at ArizonaHP.org for the Battlestar Galactica Series finale.

Playing at Phoenix Cactus Comicon 2009

I’ve been in my studio working on remixing various Anime and video game songs for Phoenix Cactus Comicon 2009. This will be the night of Friday, January 23rd. I’m really excited, especially now that I have Ableton Live in my studio. With my house cleared out, the sound is up so loud the walls are [...]

RayRay is Forever from Diablo 2

Here is a pic of me from Diablo 2 with two of my friends, Kiko and Mai! I’m trying to be short, and it makes it look like I have no neck! You can check out Gordon’s pictures from Diablo 2 in the gallery, and one of me that Gordon took below this cut:

Added 5th hard drive to Mac Pro

Per my friend’s instructions he left on his site, I finally added a 5th drive to my Mac Pro. While inside of my Mac, I just had to be amazed at how well it is designed. I tried to figure out how to dissasemble it myself, however I had to use Anandtech’s article to do [...]
