…All Choked Up… the slow jam mix
Here’s a mix I did back in 1999. Its still weird for me to say “back in the 90s” But I guess that just means I’m old now. This mix is all slow jams. It was my first mix CD. Before that, my mixtapes were on actual TAPES!!! Cassettes… Maxell, TDK, etc.. you know whatsup!! I was selling this on CD for about $5 to $10 bucks each. I think I sold close to a hundred copies outta my backpack at school, at work, after the club (shout out to John Magic for always plugging it at Rewind!!!) . If you bought one from me and you’re seeing this now, I owe you a drink or something, cause now I’m giving it out for free.
Also… definitely have to shout out Dave Magno and the rest of S-Sential for the Hands to Heaven remake.. and of course Leslie Baloy (who I haven’t seen in years, so not even sure if its still her last name) for the acapella verses. Hope you’re all doing well!! Wanna help me out with the next one??
This file is a little bit of a re-edit. I put all the tracks together into one long file, and I tightened up the gaps between the different segments of the mixes. Thats about it. Excuse the bad sound quality, cause I didn’t have any real recording gear back then.
People have been asking me about a part 2 for years. I was hoping to get to it last year, cause it woulda been like a 10yr anniversary sorta thing. I just never got a chance to do it… but who knows… maybe one day I’ll get to it. So… if you lost your CD, its too scratched up to play, just want to load it on your ipod, or never even heard it before… feel free to DOWNLOAD it here:

Final mix from 2009 (from the Crocker Club)
So 2009 was a pretty rough year. And at the end of the year, 09 didn’t let me off that easy. Original plan: check out Z-Trip at Moon at the Palms. The homie Tony was gonna drive, but last min, he had car problems. Then, I also got a call from the homie Abe (DJ EvilLincoln) about a tentative NYE gig at the Crocker Club (he’ll be there every Saturday starting in the next couple weeks). Skipping over all the details, my cousin cancelled the room, the gig didn’t happen, and we ended up at some random party in Chino Hills (don’t ask how it was).
On the plus side though, the Crocker Club had me come in a do a set, so they can hear me do their format. Which is pretty much stuff I like to play anyway. They liked what I did and have me on call. Most likely to fill in for Abe. Well… here’s the set for you download. My final mix for 2009. Hope you all have a great 2010!!
Do we call it “Twenty Ten” or just “Ten”???
