I Like it Dirty Podcast - Electro, House, Breaks

There really is nothing like a good day party in San Francisco! I had the pleasure of playing in blissful weather in Dolores Park yesterday - the cultural (counter cultural?) center of SF on a sunny day. (For those not familiar, imagine all of the lovely people and freaks that you've ever seen, multiplied by San Francisco's love of eccentricity, packed into one sunny, city block). It also happens to be three blocks from home. It's special to walk out my door with music and headphones in hand, stroll over to my neighborhood park and drop a dirty dance party.

Special thanks to ZEROdB for providing the silent disco and hope for many parties to come in a all my favorite places.

San Francisco, I love you!

I am ever fascinated and inspired by the link between music and emotion. It is a thread that runs through our lives connecting us to past selves while simultaneously rooting us deeply in the now.

Music is memory. Music is hope. Music is love. Music is passion. Music is peace.

This music is a butterfly kiss.

Mit Liebe Gemacht.

Thanks to everyone for coming out last night for 'Me So Horny, a Dusty Rhino Fundraiser.' WOW that was good and dirty! A special thanks to Monarch for hosting, all the DJs (Icon, Zach Moore, Clarkie, Alvaro Bravo, DJMK), the whole Dusty Rhino Crew for a horn-filled night.

I woke up this morning with a big smile on my face, legs aching and a twinge of disappointed that I did not set up the recorder to capture the magic. Instead of dwelling in regret (not my style), I recorded my set from last night in a quick early morning studio session.

I also dropped my first original track last night - I Do - so enjoy some dirty goodness straight from the heart.

If Rhinos made a recognizable sound, I would insert it here. Rhino ROAR!

Wow! Last night's Aurora in White underground boat party was hands down the best party of the season. Tucked in the back of a pier in the San Francisco Bay, the old cruise ship, its passengers glowing white, got dirty until well after the sun shone over the Bay Bridge.

This set is full of some of my favorite dirty electo and breaks tracks from the past year. It literally had the ship swaying. Get dirty!

It's that time of year again. A dusty pilgrimage. Wide-eyed contact with smiling strangers. A distant horizon. Getting lost. Being found.

For this year's trip to the desert, I have put together Crossroads, an ode to the journey, a companion for the road. It is the intersection of doubt (in the face of choice) and hope (that all roads lead home).

For all of you who have been building imaginary walls and want to burn them to the ground - Crossroads is for you.

It was late. Very late. A party, almost ended, was resurrected by circles of fire and flesh in one of the sexiest performances I have ever had the pleasure to witness. I reached into my CD case for the sexiest, dirtiest beats I could find...and what I found was dubstep.

Dubstep? Really, you ask? Yes, dubstep. I have slowly evolved from a dubstep hater into a dubstep explorer over the past year. There is a growing sliver of dubstep that is not angry "I hate my parents" noise but is dirty, sexy and primal. I have peppered my mixes with a dub track or two but my first live dubstep-focused set, on this foggy June sunrise, was truly an awakening experience.

What I love about this sliver of dubstep is its ability to speak to the goddesses that make a dancefloor exceptional. The women around whom a party revolves and from whom it takes its shape. The female vocals, too commercial and poppy in any other style of music, are balanced by the raw, sensual WHOMP that makes good girls go bad.

I added chapters to this mix with corresponding photos so you can skip to tracks. The slideshow on the Podomatic player is worth watching.

(For my loyal fans, don't fear, I am not going to become dubstep focused DJ - just expanding my range of dirty, sexy, booty-shakin' beats.)

2) Amirah - Chasing Shadows
3) Warrior - J.O.B feat Anjulie (with MadV & 12th Planet)
4) Cracks (Flux Pavilion Remix) - The Freestylers

7) Innocence (Original Mix) - Nero
8) In for the Kill (Skrillex Remix, DJ Dane Edit) - La Roux
9) Who's Your Daddy (Black Noise Remix) - Don Diablo

Enjoy this set full of dirty Rapture and electro Armageddon. While no one in San Francisco seems to have ascended (who am I kidding, no one from SF was getting raptured anyway), the earth shook and fire rose from the dancefloor when I dropped this set on Saturday night. Dance like today was your last.
