The American Idol Hollywood week part two episode was perhaps one of the most frustrating and annoying ever aired on the show. Why? Two reasons. First, I got a bit sick of producers exploiting all the unfortunate hopefuls who were sick or suffered a physical breakdown. Second, you don't have all that lead-in for a musical reality show and then end the episode without any actual singing!The American Idol Hollywood week part two episode was perhaps one of the most... more

Shocking photos of a painfully thin Macaulay Culkin have sparked ugly rumors of anorexia and drug use by the former child star, now 31. Photographed by paparazzi while out on a stroll, the "Home Alone" star looks incredibly gaunt, with sunken cheeks and protruding bones in his face. Despite his disturbing appearance, however, McCaulay Culkin's rep says he is just fine.Shocking photos of a painfully thin Macaulay Culkin have sparked ugly rumors of... more

First off, THANK YOU, THANK YOU THANK YOU for coming by, and if you have downloaded, podcast, bumped, grooved, jived, or in anyway enjoyed my mixes, whether featured here, or you’ve seen me play live, or heard me live via the internet, this thanks is for you. It is the support (and lack there of) that has been propelling me to continue forward with this project and dream.
Let me clarify a few things so that you can be on the same page as moi. I recognize and realize there are differences between a DJ, a Disc Jockey, a radio media personality, a jukebox, a Genius (or alternative technology) tool mix and finally a mixologist. I would classify myself as a mixologist. Let me define that for you. A mixologist is someone who isn’t merely beat matching songs continuously, they are following a theme, muse, vibe, or concept. The songs or compositions and elements they use are to convey a bigger message or meaning than the sum of their individual parts. Hence the theme of “synergism” within my compositions. Unfortunately, copyright law and the current legal climate in regards to this art form have not kept up with the creative process, and corporations are rightfully interested in keeping their bottom lines protected, as well as making sure they continue to barely feed the artists they represent. The current music climate in my homeland of Chicago (birthplace of House and original forms of current dance music), is a sad one, and most bars and what few clubs that are left do not understand or know how to capitalize on such artistic expression. Sounds like a sad state huh?
Well despite this climate of indifference, the lack of social change within my community, and a well demonstrated lack of proper funding and income, I drudge on. I firmly believe that one good mix can change a life, save a life, enhance a life, and definitely enrich all those that experience it. I would love to be able to get ample compensation for the craft that has taken 20 years of my life (and subsequent portions of my income) to be able to fully realize. After years of frustration, and “divorce”, I realize that you can never quit on your TRUE love. I’m not some altruistic moony-headed 60’s based flower child with an utterly utopian vision of how one track/mix and save the world. Nothing against those who have those beliefs, and God Bless them as they strive to achieve it. However, I do believe in the power of a damn good pulsing bass line complete with a complex rhythmic structure that hits hard and drives relentless for hours and just leaves you breathless, sweaty, makeup everywhere, sore and ultimately joyous, fulfilled, and a sense of WOW, that was indescribable, yet you feel it in your bones, soul, heart, and mind for days after your initial listening, and for some reason you can’t seem to stop playing it, all the while going over certain parts of it, cause you missed this one the first time, or wait, where did that come from, I didn’t hear that before types of experiences.
With those explanations out of the way, here is what I can promise you that you will find in each and every single mix that I cast out into the deep abyss of the internet.
It will be at least ONE full CD length mix
It will be 100% duplicatable live
It isn’t a virtual multi-tracked masterpiece
If at all possible made from the promotional and white label vinyls/ cd singles
will be recorded in ONE TAKE, ONE SHOT. There might be slight or subtle abnormalities that are inherent in the mix, which might not be originally intended, yet in the final overall greater good work within the mix as a whole. I’m certainly not perfect, and my mixes aren’t either. You will not get something over processed, re-edited, mixed down, effects laden to hell, or otherwise not like what a live performance will generate.
So with those thoughts, and a slight glimpse, I hope you are ready for the journey I am about to undertake. I hope this gains me more exposure, and recognition from WITHIN the community. Fame and fortune are niceties, but not necessary. A legion of followers with some of the loosest necks on the planet IS. Buckle up, buy a damn good subwoofer, alert the neighbors and the wife, and I look forward to you sharing me with your aerobic workout, morning jog, power lovemaking session, cleaning your house, or as the next big barn-burning house party you need to get started and turned into your next Paris Hilton-styled party.
Are you ready? Let’s go
No worries, the strobe light is still lit to guide the way..For Booking Info

Why do I make Dumb Dog Trick videos?
I started doing photography in black and white. Developing photos in the darkroom. Eventually I stopped because, even though my prints were large and beautiful, it was such a pain in the ass to make them. I started making videos when digital technology made it easier to make short films or videos than it used to be to make a single print.
Dumb Dog Tricks is obviously inspired by the David Letterman Show's Stupid Pet Tricks. Did you know that when Animal Planet started Pet Star, Animal Planet got Letterman's Stupid Pet Trick coordinator to round up the talent. And, yes, I was turned down from Pet Star by that dude (can't remember his name) because my act didn't have "pop." But, heck, to be honest, he was pretty nice about it. He was also one of the few people I ever had a real chance to talk about it with. Early days of email. I also think the guy worked pretty hard wrangling a selection of animals. Lots of dog candidates.
So, what do you do? Make your own show.
Who needs pop when I got Dumb Dog Tricks? The point of Dumb Dog Tricks and really any dumb dog video, very funny dog video or what-have-you worth watching is to share the love and fun that pet ownership brings.
I pray you be easily entertained, however, as Dumb Dog Tricks are like Modern Art, the mystique is elusive, if you know what I mean. And how could you know what I mean! Har! Get it? It's that dumb.
What did I just watch? Why did I just watch that? What the hell? I want those :42 back. Hey look, there's links to more of these stupid videos. Hmm I'll try this one.
It has taken me about three years to balance the level of corniness with the immense stupidity and proper tone. It has not come easy. The theme music sound was made by scraping a '57 Chevy bumper against a curb. The photos appear chaotic, even paleolithic in their stark simplicity. The sound of the crazy man's voice conjures images of cigars, cognac and whispered secrets.
The experience of a dumb dog trick visually is similar to what one think when one of our pets leaves a surprise on the carpet -- What the crap is that?
Peace and love to all throughout the land.

A lady of her word, Maria Menounos stripped to a Giants bikini in NYC to host Extra yesterday after losing a bet to co-host A.J. Calloway to do so if her beloved Patriots lost the Super Bowl.
Now pay careful attention to the creeper directly behind her… M-hmmm. Looks like he’s got the best view in the house.

Ke$ha opens up in the March issue of Glamour magazine, ditching her glitter and garbage look for… something that resembles a person who regularly showers.
Inside she gabs about her penchant for penis and promises fans that the follow-up to her 2010 album Animal will show her vulnerable side. This might translate to less lyrics about hard liquor, more about Franzia.
Of special note, she reveals to Glamour how she manages to dig herself out of melancholy:
“Who isn’t amused by a giant, dancing penis? Sometimes when I’m sad, I make my assistant put on the penis outfit and bounce around my house.”
She doesn’t just see dick when she’s sad–she has several sex partners weekly, adding: “Don’t get me wrong: I do destroy men on a weekly basis. It’s like a hobby. I’m like a praying mantis. They **** me, and then I eat them.”
