Ran into (& met for the first time) Mr. Dj Renato at the Beat Swap Meet. I dug around the swap meet for a couple hours, found some bass & got a testosterone headache by the end (and spent a little over what I had planned). He was selling some boogie/soul & some hip hop upstairs. Either way he’s going to be at Funky Sole this SATURDAY which has moved itself to the Echoplex now.

remember when the internet first popped out its’ baby myspace and you used to poke around and be free and talk to artists/musicians and not have this cloud of mystery and you didn’t have unanswered emails from people that you respected because they were right there with you, developing themselves and fresh and new? well anyway le castle vania just wrote me and reminded me of that time with flashbacks of looking at how far he’s come from when we/he/i befriended each other a few years back and the guy is L/E/G/I/T. plus he’s going to be in my old hood Denver AND Coachella @ the So Sweet Records party…so y’all have more than one chance to see him:

i tend to avoid certain sites for maybe obvious reasons but johnny mentioned something about remixing ssion (or maybe versa vice?) but here’s the newest remix of ssion’s song clown via pitchfork.

siyoung is plastic little’s abfutabulouso dj. he just laid out this new mix and i’ve been enjoying it delightfully. hit him up on myspace and tell him how awesome he is. and fucking add plastic little you hear? get the mix here:
