Devastating To Your Ear-Ear-Ear....



A few weeks back I was helping with the DJ AM Memorial Record Sale and my homie DJ Grant Shapiro brought his stack to me to be priced. For some reason this record, Ronnie Gee "Raptivity" stuck out to me. I asked him if he knew what it was and he said no, that it just seemed awesome. I agreed and asked him to let me know what was up with it when he listened to it. It turns out we were both right, it is awesome and it's where the "Sounds You Are About To Hear May Be Devastating To Your Ear" sample comes from. SICK! Thanks AM for continuing to educate us from beyond. And thanks to Grant who was kind enough to make us this nice rip of the track.

DJ Tim Mixtapes!!! (Pirate DJs - SF)

As I stated in the Coming Soon post, DJ Tim's mixtapes were important for me. All throughout the 90s Tim's tapes were sold at the dopest spots (Union, FTC, Fat Beats, Beat Non Stop) and were always packed with the newest, illest records as well as really good exclusive freestyles. I am very pleased to be the guy who gets to present these to the internet as they were a big influence on my style. These tapes were HUGE for my friends and I. I've met lots of other folks who loved them as well. However, in this day of everything ever being available via Google search I was shocked to find that nobody had uploaded any of these! I had a couple of the tapes lying around but it was my search for their existence online that ultimately led me to to the man himself.

Here are some words from Tim Wallen aka DJ Tim:
"Really, who would pick up a tape by DJ TIM? I know that wasn’t the coolest of DJ names by any means. Obviously it was what was ON the tape not the DJ’s name. Jeru kind of nicknamed me Timo & DJ Mind Motion kept calling me that but I just stuck with DJ Tim.
I did try to put together a great package though. It was like putting together a mini album. Good graphics/matching tape color…lots of good stuff on it. Mind Motion designed my logo and I had a couple really good graphic artists (Themba & Guthrie.) Too many mixed tapes back then were just slapped together. I would collect a ton of new songs,advance tapes,dats,test pressings, promo only stuff/exclusives what ever I thought I could use… Then it was like a puzzle. I would have way more songs than I needed then slowly narrow it down to what worked and I could fit on there. I figured most folks have A.D.D and wanted to hear a ton of new stuff so many times I would only put a verse or two and then on to the next song.
After a trip to NYC I usually would be ready to make a tape after lots of shopping & visiting labels A&R folks. No one was really doing tapes out here at that time so I found a niche and filled it.
I would go up to Harlem & 125th or Brooklyn Fulton St to buy other mix tapes at least once a year. I was way more into NYC/East Coast style rap. My favorite mixtape DJ by far was DOO WOP. He could rap great, put a ton of exclusive freestyles out and he had a good ear for the music they freestyled over & what songs he put on his tapes. His raps were kinda funny in a way... He had a sorta sarcastic/chip on his shoulder/smart ass lyrics. I wish he would of put out a full album of him rapping.
I started off making tapes in 92 & 93 then stepped it up in 94 and the best years were probably 95 to 97 although I kept making them till 99.
I was lucky enough to have access to a lot of the best indie labels through my work first at an independent distributor (CRD.) We carried: Tommy Boy, Wild Pitch, Profile, Next Plataeu, Island labels like 4th & Broadway, Delicious Vinyl and many more then later @ Capitol & V2 records. I owe lots to those folks and many more for hooking me up with some great stuff… Like Benny B and other SF DJs. I also owe a great deal to Mind Motion here in SF who let me open some of his DJ gigs. He did my logo & we did a tape together too … and of course his buddy Ivan who hosted most of my tapes. Ivan sounded way better on the mic than me… With him and all the drops I had the tapes never got too boring."

"Sway who is on MTV now but was on KMEL at the time hosted my 97 Mentality tape. (posted below)
For my job I had to travel to lots of spots on the west coast & out to Denver and on those trips I would make time to search out the record stores or little boutiques that sold mix tapes & get em to carry mine. That also really helped get em out there. It was a a hustle but a fun one. I had some dude in London selling my tapes. This was way before email & the internet. Lots of phone work too.
I tried to put some west coast joints on the tapes here & there but what I liked and wanted to hear most was NY stuff. I would never put radio stuff on there because what is the point? You would be sick of anything that was on the radio or even a big club song didn’t need to go on a tape. Tapes are for discovering new music not playing the hits..at least that was my philosophy. Giving light to under appreciated stuff. Some of the stuff on there makes me cringe now but others sections & songs of the tapes I still really like & will crank up when listening. I did em on a little Tascam 4 track. I had a sampler that I used mainly for my drops that I bought from Dan the Automator (He lived up the street at the time.)
My CD player in my truck broke recently and I started listening to old tapes, mine and others, and it brings back memories of another era for sure.
I still can’t believe how I got all these guys to come out to my little house in the Sunset District to do freestyles @ my house. MCs like: Mobb Deep, Jeru, Lil Dap, MOP, Black Moon, Helter Skelter, OC, Xzibit, Masta ACE and more."

Thanks Tim for sending me the tapes and trusting me with this post. And thanks to my friends Daniel, Talal and Ed who came and picked me up at the house (I was 16) in the Eddie Bauer Edition Forest Green Explorer with Tim's Nod Factor 95 tape in the deck.

Coming Soon...


When I was in High School there were no rap tapes I looked forward to more than DJ Tim's. They used to sell 'em at Union on La Brea and me and my boys would go every month to see if there was a new one, turns out he only made tapes every 4-6 months. Always choc-full of exclusives, new heat and crazy freestyles. Very tastefully mixed by Tim and usually hosted by DJ Ivan who I always liked because he didn't scream all over the tapes like S&S, Craig G or Clue.
After years and years I finally made contact with DJ Tim and he was kind enough to send me master tapes of 4 of my favorites... Which will all be posted here soon.

Get excited.

Telephoned - Keep Their Heads Ringin



What the hell is that madness you ask? Why it's Telephoned stellar collabo with Camo UFOs of course. And you can only get it by downloading their funky fresh new mixtape aptly named "Keep Their Heads Ringin". It's Telephoned second compilation of "covers" (for lack of a better word, because it's so much more) produced by Sammy Bananas and Maggie Horn. It got maaaad run in my whip this weekend and the ladies love it. The mix is basically a really schmoove hybrid of current Pop, Dance and DJ culture and I for one am a fan.

Riva Starr - Back To the Bass

I rarely post people I don't know's mixes around here. But the thing is, it's been years since I've heard a dance DJ mix I liked this much. You know, that old school shit where I hit the stores in search of nearly every track played.
It's not even that new, in fact, I've been running it for months. But I can't stop listening to it and felt the need to spread the word.
I'll admit, I've only passively been a fan of Riva Starr. Over the years I've played a handful of remixes and tracks , but I never really was paying full attention. Well, I've started. I know I'm a lil behind here as he's been headlining gigs all around the world and gracing magazine covers. None of that matter though, because this mix is a banger start to finish. It takes me back to the cassettes I used to buy at raves. Solid vibe throughout and full stoney bass biz. At one point it even goes D+B on you with a stellar Marky remix of Claude Vonstroke.

Departure Lounge - Dep Lounge 2 feat Sor

Rhetoric - 1998


I love this track. Super deep, bassy house vibes. Found it during one of many listening station sessions at Satelitte Records in NY back in the day. Used it on many mixes since then, most recently my White Light Mix. Which you should download if you haven't already. Recommended listening, as are all of the White Light Mixes. Lately I've really been enjoying the new ones from U-Tern, Eli Escobar and Wax Romeo. Can't go wrong with any of those guys ever.
Please Enjoy.

Chuck Stanley - Jammin' To The Bells (Remix)


Def Jam - 1987

Summer is here and the vibes are good in Los Angeles. Lots of friends coming in and out of town, good parties and lots of pools. Pools are my shit. I try to spend as much of my summer chilling in pools as possible. I even have a Pool Crew! Shout to Blu Jemz, the CEO of the crew. Nice having you in town. Also a shout to Morse Code and the Tice Mansion posse... Socks N Sandals RIP.
The point is, I end up using the iPod a lot more in the summertime and creating schmoove poolside playlists. This jam right here is straight pool shit to me, plus my previous Chuck Stanley post was pretty popular.

ES1.5 Tour Video Diary : PT 4 - London 5/05 -5/06/10



After Brighton I took a night to recover from the weekend but hit the streets running on wednesday. Spent some time with DJ Yoda, who is the man! I had a very authentic UK experience driving around in his Mini listening to Jungle on Pirate radio as Double Decker buses drove by.



Later that night I stopped by Benji B's night, Deviation, and caught Peanut Butter Wolf and Theo Parrish.



I put in some time in the studio on Thursday and went to a lovely meal with some friends. (Thanks to Romain for an excellent steak dinner at Hix!) I then rolled with Alchemist to peep the Alchemist VS Just Blaze Soundklash at East village.







Up next... Friday, May 7th at Fabric!

ES1.5 Tour Video Diary : PT 3 - Brighton 5/02-03/10


After Oslo and Copenhagen I spent a couple days in Brighton, UK and loved it. I played for a bit at Adam Freelands 'Marine Parade Microfest' at Concorde 2. It was sponsored by the Romanian Arts Society and was a very interesting and excellent experience. I highly recommend spending time in Brighton.

It turns out Quadrophenia was filmed right where Concorde 2 is:
