This 5 hour set was recorded New Year's Day after the lovely Freakeasy event which happened at the legendary Metro in Chicago. Our regular place of Freakness was closed for renovations, so we were given solace by the ever so qute crumble house for an early morning-to-afternoon romper of epic proportions. Snuggle factor +11, blaze in the back yard to keep everyone else warm and $800 raised for the Chicago Bond Fund in the process. Yay! Lots of rave classics, bumpy vibes and some sloppy mixing too at times tbh but like whatevs. Thanks for such an amazing New Year's Chicago!!

Howdy! I've been having a really great time DJing various Fridays at the Port Bar in Oakland and decided I'd share a snippet of the goodness... this was a live recording from Friday October 14th (the last 2 hours of the night). It's been a super fun mix of House Classics and Anthems with a few Pop tunes and club cuts. Not taking myself too seriously here and certainly not digging too deep but really hoping to provide a little House Music History education and get some butts moving in the process. Hope you enjoy!
