With possible stops in Bali, Singapore, & the Philippines. Holy smoly! This is gonna be sOooo amazing. Haven’t been this excited since, like, forever. I’ll have more details soon but if you’ve ever been to that part of the world please fill me in on your travels there, would love to hear about your journey 
I’m spinning some tunes in Scottsdale! Christmas Eve 9-2am. Come one come all.
Pics from an awesome Halloween at The Ace Hotel Palm Springs. More photos from Creatures Crawling over at The Flashdance.
Can’t make it out? don’t want to make it out? But, still want to hear some awesome music? Tune into my new radio show “Oh Shit Son” to hear what I consider some of the greatest music ever made. Expect cuts you’ve never heard before along with songs you grew up listening to, or better yet your parents listened to and Jay-Z sampled. I don’t need to say much more, the music speaks for itself. Enjoy vol 1. and follow us on Twitter for updates. S

One of my fav catering companies and some of my favorite people in the world are hosting a pop-up speakeasy tonight at a secret location. They hit me up about a week ago asking me if I could provide the soundtrack for the night and I immediately thought, “sign a girl up!” Almost instantly music begin to play in my head. Jazz is perfect for this. I put a 3 hour playlist together featuring some cool dixieland jazz which would go right along with the speakeasy theme.
You must check out Heirloom LA, they have this vicious lasagna cup cake you’d kill for and the most amazing cocktails, you’ll die.

I had the pleasure of spinning the wrap party for this awesome new dramedy on Showtime featuring the Don Cheadle and Kristen Bell. I played a mix of old jams, breaks, & classics along with some cool electro remixes and all around fun tunes. They loved it from what I gathered, caught a few of the conservative types losing control of their limbs as the music came over them. I too had a blast and Don was kind enough to take this awesome photo with me. Such a nice guy! thanks DON!!

Next Friday I’ll return to the wheels for the second time with some fresh tunes upstairs while Simple Citizens do their thing on the downstairs stage. Come out, dance, sweat, hydrate on some liquid courage and don’t forget to come say hi to the DJ!

Project was truly a damn good time. I’d go further into details…. but em, err… it was Vegas which means one must come fully equipped with a negligent eye and selective memory. Check: countercheck.
Of course the one snap shot of me at Project is me NOT spinning, but on my phone. Hilarious!
Check the nail color tho! Pretty fab mellow yellow if I do say so myself.
Legend had it Carmageddon would be the worse traffic weekend to ever hit LA. Closing the 405 for a couple miles on a hot summer weekend? Sounds like a party, LA see’s shitty traffic everyday of it’s existence. Well the SOS was heard, everyone was too spooked to drive. It was a total hoax, the streets of Los Angeles N, S, E & W were utterly silent, a complete ghost town. I drove to Malibu in like 30 mins, never before has it been done in twice that time. !Crazy!
Medusa lounge was poppin’ tho.
THEM JEANS (Dim Mak) SAMO SOUND BOY (Trouble And Bass) Myself, RICARDO CARLOS (Shake the Hand) RIGHTEOUS TRASH (Alliance) & SUPER TALL PAUL all blessed the stage.
Thanks to COOLHAUS, BUTTERMILK, FRYSMITH, & BORDER GRILL TRUCK for bringing the yummy food. I tried some chicken and waffles from the Buttermilk truck that were quite delicious and also had a few scrumptious potato tacos from the Border Grill truck. I drank PBR, I danced, I laughed, and I got to play some records?! AWESOME!!
