For this month’s archive dig, I present to you ‘Easy’. I was still a simple yogi living up in the mountains, getting my inspiration from the starry skies and desert landscape. And if you listen carefully, you can hear the hints of the soon-to-come ‘Painting’ which was made just a few months later. These two mixes were definitely siblings, meandering through the halls of some smooth jazzy house. This is still one of my favorites to this day. So please enjoy this journey from the nostalgic 90s!

Here we have a humble looking CD from of all places Fort Collins, CO.  Sometimes live recordings can seem lackluster and flat because you’re missing out on what it is – a live performance.  But this recording captures (surprisingly) the raw energy of the party and is something you can listen to over and over again.  Granted, when this was first released there were the “extra live” qualities of the needle skipping at least a few times because of people jumping on the stage.  So with a little friendly editing, here is a ~47 min. excursion from that evening.  It’s a party.  Enjoy!

Exuding a sunny disco-inspired temperament, this is a Summertime favorite of mine. It captures the sumptuous mid-90s creations of the likes of Moodyman, Carl Craig, Masters At Work, Theo Parrish, and Rob Mello. Many speculated that the title inferred my retirement as a DJ. Maybe it was simply a cheeky Simpsons reference… Whichever the case, it’s here remastered for everyone to revisit and enjoy.
