As we wrap up another year, I hope you all have a productive 2011. I know I’m seriously letting all the drama and negativity of 2010 go. Time is short so let’s make the best of it. Tomorrow night we are throwing an ill NYE party at The Walnut Room. Last year, the party was so crazy it felt like the building was gonna collapse. No better way to close out a busy year.

Til then, here is a new live mix from Kraftwork. I hope you enjoy it. I’d also love to see you out tonight for another chill out at Kraftwork which is my favorite bar. Come through, listen to some beats, have a grub and enjoy the wide variety of beer.

Another one of our fellow comrades has passed unfortunately. Roc Raida from the legendary X-Men DJ Crew (Harlem, NYC) passed away over the weekend. My recollections of him include seeing him live at the DMC multiple times. Performing on the same bill with him and chatting whenever the opportunity presented itself. If you’ve seen the movie Scratch, you’ve witnessed the magic this man worked on the turntables. If you’ve never seen or heard the X-Men, the video below is just a taste of what Roc Raida is all about. He lives on through the legacy of turntablism and DJs carrying the torch.

Rest In Power Homie. Too many losses this year. Damn…

Happy 18th Soul Ceez…
