Rhythm Mechanics

And so commences the month of the guest slots! First up is Matt Pruitt of High Maintenance. Matt was in town from Texas and we were able to work him into the lineup. I’m glad too, cause he came with the proper jazzy, jackin, and disco sounds. The back end of this set is excellent! Check out his production work out at Juiced Music and on other fine record labels. Props to DJ Sangre for helping me overcome a server issue to get you this set immediately.

I liked this set… I mean… I really liked this set. There’s tracks from before 2000, and tracks from 2010 in this mix and it really goes to show how flexible this music is. I had a lot of fun mixing this and I know you’ll have a lot of fun listening to it. Maybe not the most technically proficient mix, but for a first live run at it I was happy. I got lots of callers so I know someone out there liked it too. Spread the music, spread the word. House.

Everyone’s on it, so I decided to be completely unoriginal and drop a deep and techy set around the 124-125bpm range. Too much knob fiddling on this one I think… This set convinced me to swing back towards the disco shit.
