“Thank you” just doesn’t fully encapsulate how grateful I am to my friends who have shown their support to KALW. And I don’t just mean pledging $$, I mean those who listen, those who share shows and stories that interest them… Because of you, me and all my radio friends are able to continue dreaming up the most creative, interesting and experimental audio as possible. THANK YOU for doing your part to keep public media relevant. I promise that as long as you won’t stop listening, I won’t stop scheming.

I’M ON THE RADIO LIVE tomorrow morning!

7AM-10AM, I’ll be at the side of the greatest station manager in the world, Matt Martin, helping get some bucks in the KALW piggy bank during this, our shortest membership campaign (aka pledge drive) ever!

If you call and make a donation (to the sexiest public radio station in SF) during that timeslot, it makes me look really, really cool guys. Here’s the number to make the magic with: 800-525-9917.

Listen live at www.kalw.org or 91.7FM in San Francisco. 

If I have to keep a list of shit to do, I have decided that it should be as fun as possible to use. 

Today, I made myself a new task/scheduler/book/thing. Materials: Moleskine (brown paper cover), Sharpie, custom cut vinyl stickers (designed and printed by me). 

I highly recommend carving out two hours a month to treat yoself to creating something that makes TCBing way easier and actually, sort of fun. 

Somethings just call out to you to reblog them.

Yo, doods. I just got a bunch of new records and (spoiler alert) they’re fuckin’ awesome. 

Come out to El Rio tonight for American Tripps (AKA Mission Mission’s) PING PONG NITE. 

We’ll have indoor and outdoor tables, and plenty of tunes to soundtrack your victories at said tables. 

FREE admission, 21+
9PM - 12AM
3158 Mission Street, San Francisco

Custom, silk screened KALW t-shirt made by moi. I got sick and tired of forgetting to get some new station shirts to add to my closet, so I just made my own. I used an exacto knife to draw and cut out the design on vinyl. Then I silkscreened it right onto a plain, ol’ white t-shirt. Without the help of any computers! Analog win!

Made at TechShop, San Francisco. May 5, 2013.

And then I played this one later on at Hard French… and it was mobbin’. Hard French is like the perfect playground for a soul DJ, absolutely everyone is clapping and dancing anywhere they can find a free space. </gush>

Thank you DJ Carnita & Brown Amy and all my pals at Hard French, yesterday was too much fun. 

Yesterday, at Hard French, Brown Amy absolutely blew my mind with this record. Little known “Mr. Clean” by Dickey & Gloria. The vocals are so raw, and the entire song feels like an unstoppable machine.

NEWSFLASH: I’ll be joining Daniel “Fancy” Bermudez on the turntables this Friday for the one and only OLDIES NIGHT. 

Expect only thee finest RnB, rock n’ roll, and soul-soul-soul

SHAZAM!

This is totally happening today. Come see how DJs with hair higher than God fit their headphones on top. Is that why people are now using those Hello Kitty phones to cue?

ANYWAYS—My records and larger-than-average hair will be there, spinning from 8pm onwards. 

Free. Free. Free. And fun. Fun. Fun.
