Rhythm Mechanics 2011 09-13 Two sets in two days!

On a lighter note this week, I’m settling into my role on Tuesday Nights on CHFM. It’s weird running a show from my own home, but there are certain advantages such as beer, and my lovely girlfriend occasionally bringing me food. I need a microphone pretty bad though, which is why I sound all weird on the intros/outros/shoutouts. Let me know what you think. Tweet @D_VO

Rhythm Mechanics 2011 09-12 My final WNUR set…

The time has come, and I am officially moving on to new and exciting things on Chicago House FM. I’ve had an excellent run here on WNUR Streetbeat, spanning over three years and 100+ episodes of Rhythm Mechanics. I could get all sad and nostalgic, but I’d rather be excited for the future and doing new and better things. I never imagined I would take it this far in the first place, I continue to be impressed by the supportive community at WNUR so I want to give some shoutouts to people who have been a part of my experiences. This is by no means a comprehensive list, I’ve had a pleasure working with everyone involved at the station.

  • DJ Jaims – the man who taught me how to put two tracks together in an organized fashion
  • DJ Sangre – the other man who taught me some skills, and my longtime cohort on Monday nights.
  • Yann M – great friend and fellow WNUR engineer and exec member
  • Deluge – teaching me all about what is and what is not real in the world of hip-hop
  • M50 – a true inspiration, the things he knows about electronic music are astounding.
  • The Chairman – producer when I was music director, we made a pretty sick team.
  • D-Long and The Scrimmage – highly entertaining, highly energetic, highly enthusiastic about hip-hop, all I gotta say

New Logo!

So I’ve gone and created a new logo for my show (and my own ventures, as they are inherently linked). Along with this will be a light refresh of the website, still the same great content though. Let me know what you think, tweet @D_VO
