Dear dreamers,
Been an interesting few months since my last post, I've been busy as a bee and had very little time to direct at promotion, DJing, partying and the like. I have had my eye on a VCI-300 MK2 ever since my old teacher Justin got one and now that I'm done with motorcycle class that will be my next purchase once I save enough green. There will be a bit of a learning curve for a month or two but it will be worth every minuet, I'm already super excited about it!
In other news I'm heading to FL to visit my boy's family for X-mas and will be back just in time for new years. Happy holidays!
I miss all you guys and I'll be back on the circuit again next year with a new found enthusiasm and joy/toy!

Yes, I'm lazy but also busy and dealing with some heavy psychological shite. I had a fantastic Burning Man and played some nice campouts afterward. The industry I am in is busiest at this time of year and I feel like I need to hone my DJing skills a little more before a very important all night dance celebration this winter in SF.
Hopefully some mixes to come very soon!

Going home!

Dear ravers, metal heads, hipsters, goths, hippies and non-labeled,
Amazing pride weekend!
Highlights included randomly running into my friend Spiro and DJing in his front yard right next to Dolores park, witnessing an engagement made out in green lazer, hanging with the east bay peeps (miss you!) and DJing my butt off on a Funktion 1.. again. ;)

Dear bad ass mother fuckers,
I am so freakin' tired still from the Feather River Campout but it was totally worth the energy, drive and time. I played a dubstep set and then a couple hours later played a funky breaks set on Saturday. Sunday I played a 4 hour house set starting with techno, tech house and minimal and then moved to electro cuz it's so easy. I impressed some Friends and Family which is good because I would love to play their main campout.
In other news I just started a new job at an organic pie an ice cream shop called Chili Pies some come on by! I needed a little steady job and I'm still working as a stage hand with Stage 2 Design as well.
And on to the fun:
Lots of gigs are randomly popping up which is awesome because things had slowed down to almost nothing earlier. Here is the down low low down:

Dear funkateers,
Things are good, DJing a bit and working more equals a happy "rich" Devil! I have practicing a bunch now that I've got some sweet speakers and Serato 2.0 was just released. FX are dope and I can upload the playlist as I'm playing, feel free to check out my profile on the Serato website here. Lots of other cool stuff as well and I've started messing with midi controllers and thinking about buying one of those Korg Nano controllers(with all the faders and knobs). Any suggestions about a good pair of DJ headphones?

Some exciting stuff coming up! Check it:

FRC the Ocho (aka Feather River Campout 8), June 11-13, 2010
A Friends and Family Campout under the stars
on the banks of Bucks Lake

The Feather River Campout is moving to a new space this year. While it is still in the Plumas National Forest near Quincy, it's actually not, technically speaking, on the Feather River. It is, however, still technically a campout and we think you're going to love the new location.

Yes, we know it's a four-hour drive from the Bay Area, but can we tempt you with our beautiful campground next a gorgeous alpine lake? How about our sweet sound by P4 pumping out tunes from some of your favorite FnF DJs (and some new blood too)?

What if we told you that everyone's favorite DJ mobsters, the Ambient Mafia, will be your Friday night sound conductors, providing relaxing downtempo and ambient sounds to greet you when you arrive? Still not convinced? OK, don't tell the boss we're doing this, but we'll even throw in the friendly supportive community, cool hosts and several other amazing surprises for no extra charge!

Damn, you drive a hard bargain, but we're sure you're going to really enjoy this top-of-the-line campout experience.

Please come prepared! Treats to share, costumes and finery combined with common-sense attention to the camping environment, a pack-it-in-pack-it-out ethos, and your smiling face are all you need for a great time in the woods! There are campfire pits and onsite grills, so bring fuel and yummy stuff to grill. No food will be provided at this event, so BYOF.
Confirmed DJs include
r2witco
Hickory
Konkers
George Cochrane
Persefoni
Micron
DJ Fllow
Encino
Pauly Vinyl
Larry Ching
Audionista
DJ Salex
DJ Innaseoul
Whiskey Devil

Dear disco infiltrators,
What an amazing month this has been! Yosemite one weekend, Mexico the next and job hunting like crazy in between.
So, Mexico.. ;)
Started off almost missing the flight down to San Diego then meeting up with Smoove, Michelle and Laird,(who I am still surprised I've never met before!) Short 1 hr flight down then split into 2 high-clearance vehicles and quick stop at the grocery store and on we went! Getting through the border and Mexicali was un-eventful thankfully and once we hit the playa (yes, just like the )'( one) we happened upon a bunch of Fuente partiers celebrating. An excited beer or shot and we all rolled out as one down the washboard road leaving only dust behind.
After climbing over some serious rocks and driving through a small river we were here! We unpacked and decided no to stay at any of the campgrounds but be a "satelite SFDJ camp" and found a nice private space next to the bridge with a bunch of palm trees and frogs. Set up shop with little light we had left then headed over to the stage to mingle, dance and later DJ.
Right before my set Saynt (who throws Fuente Eterno with Blue) explained my story to the crowd; How I had come to Fuente 2 years ago and never listened to electronic dance music until that pivotal party and am now a DJ because of it!
I rocked out like a mad man the whole time, the monitors sounded so fantastically clear (stereo) I couldn't help but dance my ass off, friends told me later all they could see were my horns bobbing and bouncing around.
Fuente Electro 2010 live set!
After that set I didn't sleep all night because of the energy I had stirred up, sleeping pills didn't help either.
Friday me and Lex went on a 3 or 4 hour hike up the canyon following the waterfalls and climbing over giant boulders the whole time. We made it past the 3rd waterfall and headed back since we had almost run out of water and food. In celebration we sat under a giant carved out rock next to the water fall pool and I got drunk off some rum and coke and he busted out a couple of Tecantes. (ah the Mexico life!)
That night was filled with some of the most amazing performances I had seen, the first was a native American goddess ritual with fire dancing and some of the most amazing hoop-dancing I have ever seen. The second was a western saloon shoot-out with everything on fire.(practically!) A great night of dancing and some hot-tubbing thrown in and I finally got some sleep.
Saturday is always the infamous pool party. Lex and I got there early and I went around handing out rum shots half the time, after a fantastic performance of "Dick in a Box" we left a little early and passed out for a couple hours... what a hang-over! That night was one of my best-dancing nights of this year for SURE. Tons on energy and dancing all over the place to some AMAZING DJs! Oscure, Michael Insane, and a couple more that I cannot remember at this time. Sunrise in the hot spring hot tub with some great music and great friends? priceless.
Sunday was roll around in the tent with Lex for hours then pack super fast then wait at the border for 2+ hours to get through then miss flight home (stupid daylight savings time) and crash out in the hotel. :P
Monday we ate at this awesome breakfast place in San Diego and flew home. Great end to a great vacation! Woohoo!!!
Here's a sweet video to check out of some of the stuff that went on there.

Just say yes

2010-02-22T20:46:00.000-08:00

Dear Healthies,
This sickness is kicking my butt! I'm going to the doctor tomorrow morning so no worries, they will fix me. (Thankfully even after coughing my brains out I can still do some internetting.) The fantastic Simple Greene recorded my set from Valentine's day so check it out and tell me what ya think! I'm not totally happy with some of the mixes but people seemed to love it there, I even got handed $10 from someone in the crowd! After a long day of depression and sadness then 6 or 7 shots of whiskey I think I did a pretty good job considering. ;)

Here it is for your listening pleasure!

2010-02-17T12:28:00.000-08:00

Dear Kittens,
Well that was a crazy 2 weekends to put under my belt. I am still sick but thankfully I'm slightly less broke, I have to say I LOVE CLOSING. I'ts so much more fun usually then opening, the die-hards are always there and I get to play the heavy shit which is super fun. I get cut off early a lot because of the bar but sometimes I get to play longer then any one else. Valentines day was pretty depressing but once I got to Triple Crown, had 6 shots and later DJed my frown had turned upside down. One of the most fun sets I've played since Burnlesque, hopefully I'll get the recording from Simple Greene so I can share the luv.
So the only thing that's coming up for me for now is Fuente Eterno in Mexico! I've added some pictures I scrounged up from years past to show ya what it's like. 4 days of awesome sauce with 2 stages and a pool party on Saturday. Hiking, personal hotspring tubs at every camp site, 4 waterfalls, amazing views in a place that is exactly like what you think of as an "oasis". Tix are sold out but people will be getting rid of theirs all before the event so just check criagslist, FB and email the guys at the site if ya would like to go. I'm playing the main stage Thursday night (I think?) so if you are in need of a vacation this is the place to go!
Here's the blurb on their website:
"In the sleepy dawn of humanity, mankind made perhaps its most important discovery. Long before the advent of cell phones, motor cars, or even books, mankind discovered The Beat. The Beat gave birth to Dance and the timeless union of the two became the foundation of our most ecstatic celebrations and most sacred rituals. Only recently have the two been thought separate. Separate they will be no more.

In the past 4 years of Fuente Eterno, we have grown, loved, laughed, and shared. We have discovered that the spiritual and the celebratory are not only compatible, but essential to each other. Like our tribe, they support each other, define each other, and allow each other to blossom to their full potential of being. If Fuente Eterno had lasted 2 years, it might have been called "luck". If Fuente Eterno had lasted 4 years, it might have been called "persistence". However, now in it's 5th year... Fuente Eterno can be called nothing short of a phenomenon....... and that pheonominon is YOU.

We ask once again that you take up the instruments of our ancestors because The Divine is but a cosmsic conductor and we, the instruments being played by its need for infinite perspective. As a Tribe we will sing out our notes with such ecstacy so that the celestial sound rings in the halls of the ages and never loses so much as an ounce of the passion with which they were played. Discover the union of sacred and celebratory within you and the warmth of friends and family that surround you. Discover joy, laughter, love, and the loss of all unimportant attachments. Discover The Beat and Dance with your family, your friends, your TRIBE. Discover the Tribal Celebration....

Discover Fuente Eterno again... for the first time.

Welcome to Fuente Eterno…"

Much love and many hugs! WD

We won't stop!

2010-02-10T12:05:00.000-08:00

Dear Sweets,
Last weekend really took it out on me, I think that was the first time I've played every day of the weekend. Now that I have semi-recovered I'd like to share with ya some upcoming shows and stuff! This weekend is looking to be even busier for me with multiple bookings Sat night, at least they aren't even a block away. :)

Hello kiddies,

Thanks to all of you for making our 3 yr. anniversary so special. Extra big thanks to Michael Hearn for rockin the decks on his debut and packing the joint by 9pm!

Our next stop on the FreeDub train we have a very special musical performance: BAM and M.O.D. will be tearing Shine a new one on 3 turntables, complete with scratching, funked-up goodness! This will be a set you do not want to miss.

Opening up the night is another up and coming dj who is quickly rising up, Whiskey Devil. We seem to be the launch pad for many a new dj in SF. (((I am playing first so come early early!))).

And, as always, your favorite resident djs, Floorcraft and Jonboy, will graciously do what they best: ROCK IT!

We will not only be celebrating (or bashing) Valentine's Day, but will also be celebrating birthdays of Yanti, Floorcraft, and all other Aquarians!

FREE before 10:30 by replying "Attending" on this invite. http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/event.php?eid=271978735823
Otherwise, it is only a measly $5, for what will surely be another epic night!

peace and love,

your FreeDub crew

In memory of two of my first fans, Randall and Eric.
Randall, you were there from before the beginning. You put up with my terrible mixing when I only played at the Department of Spontaneous Combustion every Thursday and even gave me props. Thank you for letting me stay at your house when you were in New Orleans a year ago, I wear the mask you gave me with pride and love.
Eric, You were the only person that could keep up with me at that Evil Breaks 5 yr anniversary party. Thank you for introducing me to Dragon and I'm so glad you were there at Jelly's for Peanut Butter Jelly time, that was one of my best and fullest dance floors ever. Thank you for rocking out!

I am so excited, I have finally figured out a mailing list! Google has always been kind to me and Red Stick Man suggested Google Groups to handle sending emails and the like. I'm still getting used to it and only have about 25 people but I plan on bringing out a little notebook to my gigs and upping that number soon.
So, here is my schedule of upcoming gigs! ((( I have no idea yet when I'll be playing at most of these gigs so just plan on coming early!)))

A Celebration of Our Love....for sexy breaks, electro and bass, and a special birthday celebration for Amanda M.
We're getting the drop on Cupid and celebrating our day of love a week early, professing our devotion to all things electro and breaks, though we are exactly on time to celebrate Amanda's birthday, and we've got a lineup to do both in grand fashion. I wanted to assemble a pre-Valentine's Day lineup of LOVERS of dance music, DJ's who could deliver one of those nights at Shine that leaves you feeling like you got away with something by only paying a $5 cover. I think such a lineup has been assembled (no pressure, DJs! :)). come join the love.

My dear troopers,
How was your NYE? Did you party your ass off as long as I did? I had a mental break down at Supper of Survivors, I hope I didn't make an ass of my self in front of Felix the Dog!

Last week I got a bit drunk and listened to DJ Icon's breaks mix and decided I needed to finally record a breaks mix of my own. Yeah, there's probably some electro house in there but I can't help it, I'm still learning where these genras draw the line!

Here it is, turn it loud!

Also, I wanted to invite you over to urmystar where I will be trying out their hosting and posting and other internetty goodness for a little bit. Please check out some of the other DJs stuff and explore, this set will be posted there shorty!

Let's mix!

Dear cuddlers,
I hope ya'll had a great Xmas or Hanukkah or solstice, I did for sure! No, I didn't get some Pioneer CDJ 2000s but I did get a fabulous couple of days with my honey pie and family. Now that we're in the weird limbo-peroid between Xmas and New Years I'm kinda bored again.. I'll be at Sea of Dreams rocking out but sadly not playing this Thursday, poke me if you're gonna be there too! I have been downloading shit-tons of awesome Dubstep, Tech House, Electro House and Disco shit lately from hypem.com seems a bunch of music blogs are doing a top songs of 2009 so get on there and grab some sweet free MP3s!
In other news I'm broke again, got my car towed a couple weeks ago and it took all my money and some to get it out so if you feel kind please buy me a pack of smokes or maybe some whiskey! ;) <3
Also, please go to http://letsmix.com/whiskeydevil and listen to my mix and vote for it! Then maybe I'll get some of those CDJ 2000s! Woho!

Dear Dancers, prancers and pranksters,
December has been good to me, have been playing a couple of awesome shows and rocking out with many friends. Last Sunday night I played my first Tech House set ever and I have not had as much fun for a while! I get an unusual thrill from playing a genra that's new to me and I would like to thank Brandon of WERD for booking me there. I think I shall re-record that set again because it was so eclectic for being "Tech House" and the dance floor seemed to love it.
My birthday party went off really well, a lot of Strategik was there and Brass Tax and Opulent temple/Opel represented as well. Only about 30 people came, next time I will make sure to keep it a little less private but I had a great time with everyone there. Thank you everyone for making my life so fun and special!

Happy birthday to me...

2009-12-02T21:33:00.000-08:00

Well sweeties,
It's been an amazing 25, became a DJ, lost one relationship and gained another, moved to SF which I have wanted for a couple of years, had the best Burning Man ever, gained an immense amount of new friends, finally joined a social network since BME iam, and I think I have grown emotionally and mentally as well. A little less scared and a lot more confident in my body and skills. I still have a lot to work on but things are looking up right now.. Definitely looking forward to next year and 26!

Something I have been neglecting posting is my first collaboration of Dubstep with Justin previously known as :Prophet. This was made specifically for Dubstep Vs. Disco that I attended many times up the street from my house. After we recorded it I found out they were going to end it the next week :P but they did play the recording about 5 times in the front room of Poleng Lounge the last night so that made me a little more happy.

October as a whole was a pretty busy time for lil' old WD. I would like to thank all you promoters, dancers, DJs and friends for rocking out with me!

Some things coming up that I know of:
This Friday I'm playing at the Bently Reserve again for my friend Eric's B-day bash.
On Friday the 20th I'm playing at the Bordello for DUBpression from 11-12 in the breaks and electro room.
I'm hoping to throw a big birthday bash for myself on the 6th of December in a special location, stay posted for more info.
And there's some more stuff coming up that I can't remember right now, gotta go get ready to play at Blowfish with Peek! ;)

Hello fellows,
Another amazing weekend that I have Strategik and Brass Tax to thank again. The Paradise Lounge party was very fun, I played an OK set up stairs and had a little dance party for a while until the guys downstairs started playing very loud and fast. From talking to a few other DJs that night a couple of people were off but some highlights were Influence Vs. Drag'nfly and of coarse JoeJoe, Mace and Schwa. I met up with a couple of friends and decided to go to the talk like a pirate renegade the next day with them. After the party started to wind down we headed over to their place and stayed up all night drinking and listening to good beats to stay awake. The renegade was amazing, JoeJoe and Mace played for 3 or 4 hours and then Influence and Aaron tore it up, J Hazen and DJ Raydeus rocked it and I snuck out just as Simple Green came on (sadly, I wanted to catch him!) Obviously I was pretty tired... Danced my ass off all night and day with this fabulous new stuffed animal crab I stole from Artem/Strategik. Will probably wear it to LovEvolution ;)

So I just realized that I did not post my mastered set from Temple's Breast Cancer awareness party! Oh noes! Here it is for your enjoyment, cut to CD length and rockin' loud! Feel free to spread around like.. crabs!

Well well darlings,
what an amazing year at Burning Man! Much much better then last year in fact this was my best year ever due to many different factors; This was the first time I came with a boy friend. First time I did not work for the man at all. First time I came to BM as a DJ and played twice. First time camping with a large theme camp (sound camp too). And first time I did a copious amounts of drugs. ;)

There were many highlights to this burn, every night from Thursday night onward was EPIC starting with getting a birds-eye-view of Freq Nasty and Bassnectar doing their thing. I have never seen any one use 3 CDJs at once like Freq and he inspired me to work in more genres into a set but smoothly and seamlessly (of coarse). I had never seen Bassnectar before and watching him use Abelton, a crappy M-audio controller and a mixer confused the hell out of me. I could not wrap my mind around WTF he was doing but it was definitely amazing. Alex and I stayed up on our platform for many hours studying them and meeting new cool people, if you have seen me at parties before I usually like to be up high above the crowd cuz I get kind of claustrophobic and hot being so short (and I like to dance for others). Perfect spot!

Friday was spent recovering from Thursday and preparing for my Friday night set at the Brass Tax Boom Box. I rocked it from 9-9:45pm and had no idea I was playing before Freq Nasty! After my set I rocked out to Joe Joe, Mace, Ding Dong and Freq Nasty again. After he finished I talked with him a little bit about the song Bonkers and other stuff, super nice guy and turned out he had come by earlier and heard some of my set! (eeek!) I hope he liked it. :) Saturday they burnt the face of the Boom Box at dawn after a long night of partying, sadly I was not there due to the deep need for sleep.

I set up a DJ gig on an art car called the Gypsy Queen which was a giant fishing boat some sweet guys from Alaska had spent years building. Me and :Prophet did a 3 hours of tag-teaming around the playa. At one point we came across Opulent Temple's giant white fish art car and surrounded it for a while. At one point we set up next to the giant Rubicks Cube and put out the giant fishing net into a circle trying to catch some "fish". We caught some small art cars but the sound system was a little too small so they hauled the net back up and we set sail again across the playa. Many thanks to the Gypsy Fleet for letting me DJ for the first time on the playa in their ship!

Some other highlights: going to the trash fence with Lex and watching the sunrise, seeing Pete Hudson's Swimmer's for the first time, making music with the giant monolith from 2001, seeing the man burn from afar, checking out the art that my friends from the Department of Spontaneous Combustion, BYB , and FLG made, Thievery Corporation playing at my camp on Sunday night, rocking out on top of the house behind Opulent Temple, Meeting Meat Katie, Dylan Rhymes, Freq Nasty, and those other famous peeps at Opulent, rocking out to DJ Peek at Opulent and starting the dance party, sitting in the hookah dome while a giant party went on just outside, finding out Daft Punk was playing live on CD, and so much more that I can't think of right now!

I <3 Burning Man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, yes I am back and hitting Craigslist hard. Know of any one hiring in SF? Put it in the comments ;)
Sadly I have no recordings from BM but will bang one out soon since we have 2 new 1200s!

PS. I may be playing SF Decompression and Spiderball! Confirmations to come...

Tomorrow I shall be playing in the basement of Temple bar (55 Natoma St. SF) from 9-10pm! If you missed my electro house set from last Tuesday then you should come out, all new tunes for your pleasure and mine.
I plan on recording this session as well, will try to upload same night or sometime this week if I'm lazy.

Wish me a quick cold recovery so I'll be on top of it tomorrow! <3 WD

Wow..

2009-08-09T21:56:00.000-07:00

Wonderful people,
What amazing week and weekend, I have never done so many shows in one week ever before. (let alone done that many shows!)
So I am still kinda in a daze mentally and ego wise, not really getting a big head but actually trying to believe all those compliments from random people. I still consider myself very much a beginner with so much more to learn from everybody and myself but knowing that I don't suck feels good.
The Friday Brass Tax PB&J time party went off amazingly well, had a slightly slow start because of the lack of light and a totally new weird mixer but after a couple of songs the dance floor started grooving and I ripped shit up! It was great seeing so many of my friends there. I found a fantastic remix of Peanut Butter Jelly time that I played about halfway through my set and all the BTx peeps came out and climbed on top of each other to make a pyramid. :P I was so nervous that I found it hard to look up at the crowd, I have pretty bad stage fright but find it annoying when the DJ ignores the crowd.
Yesterday I played a Private Pirate Party on an "island" at fisherman's wharf. Had a fantastic time as well but felt a bit tired (hungover) from the night before and working that day. Spun with Tamo and met DJ Smoove again and spun with another DJ whose name I forgot, sorry! Treasure hunts, barrel rollings and some amazing food for dinner, oh and don't forget the free booze. Had a great time Djing despite my technical difficulties, hooray for turntables and Serato's input reverse!

Many thanks to all for the amazing weekend, supporting me and rocking out with me:
Tamo, Smoove, DingDong, Tom, Sharon, Limbo, Dan DasMan, Byron, Influence, Dex Stakker (thanks for the compliment!), Nate, :Prophet, JK Sound, and all those people I forgot the names of but I still remember you, and most of all Lex because with out you I couldn't DJ!
Special thanks to JoeJoe and Dragon for believing in me and inviting me to spin!

Sorry, no recordings from the weekend due to lack of the right cables at both gigs. If you ask for it in the comments I will give you the track listings though. :P

2009-08-05T12:06:00.000-07:00

This just in! I was just informed by my Brass friend JoeJoe that I shall be DJing at 11pm Friday on the outside stage! Info Below:

"Peanut Butter Jelly's Time
Jelly's, 295 TERRY FRANCOIS BLVD., PIER 50
21+, 9pm-2am We know there’s something we’re supposed to be doing on first Fridays, but apparently we have collective amnesia, because we can’t figure out what it is. So we’re throwing a party at Jelly’s instead! Oh but not just any old party – it’s PEANUT BUTTER JELLY’S TIME!!!
We’re going balls out on the fun factor for this one. Peanut Butter Jelly Time Pyramids every hour on the hour! Extreme lapdances! Our new resident MC, MALIBU! And of course, nothing but the finest tunes from JoeJoe, DingDong, Franks ‘n’ Beans, and Mace. Plus special guests: Patricio (The Do LaB, Space Island, LABA) Mozaic (Nexus, Glimmer of Dope) Whiskey Devil and more TBA!
We’re still in the hole on Boombox fundage, but we want everyone to be able to come to this party, so we’ve made it sliding scale, and have broken down the price structure as such:
$5 helps us cover costs for this party
$10 helps us cover costs for this party, supports the Boombox, and gets you a Boombox sticker.
$15 helps us cover costs for this party, supports the Boombox, and gets you a Boombox sticker and cup.
$20 helps us cover costs for this party, supports the Boombox, and gets you a Boombox sticker, cup, and patch.
$40 (or more) helps us cover costs for this party, supports the Boombox, and gets you a Boombox sticker, cup, patch, and an extreme lapdance."

This shall be the LAST fundraiser for the Boombox before the playa, please help my friends out of the poor house and onto a massive ghetto blaster!

You can dance if you want to...

2009-08-05T00:38:00.000-07:00

Beautiful people!
I am totally stoked about my recording from Temple. It took a little to get warmed up but I can confidently say that I did not fuck up majorly in any way! My sexi Lexi and his long distance friend DJ Oddfellow really helped me out with this set, a LOT. At first I thought I didn't even like electro house but was gladly informed some of my favorite DJs play electro house. Took all night to download stuff and all day to sift through it all but despite getting my computer hacked all went well! Hopefully my Hackintosh will live.
This took a lot of effort to create and not just my effort. Yay for me!
Thanks to the Temple crew, Christoper, Jessica, Byron, Lex, :Prophet, Jack Phrost and any one else I forgot for showing up!

WD's Electro House set from Temple's Breast Cancer Benefit 8-4-09

Good news everyone!

2009-08-03T10:44:00.000-07:00

NEWS FLASH
I shall be playing from 7pm-9pm possibly splitting it up with another DJ and possibly playing later as well! C U then!

Sexies!
I was informed this morning at around 3:45am that I shall be playing at the temple bar tomorrow night for their Breast Cancer Benefit! Very short notice but hopefully some of you fantastic people are allowed to stay out later then 9pm on a Tuesday? I am not sure exactly what time I'll be playing but I'm guessing maybe first or last. I'll be in the main room which is totally exciting! Yay! Tuesday will be spent with me buried deep in my external hard drive getting a set ready, I already have a couple of songs in my head that will rock the house!
Please come, the more people I bring the better possibility that I shall be brought back to play again.

Blah!!! :P

2009-08-01T18:47:00.000-07:00

Hello sweeties!
Long time no ramble, Whiskey Devil here finally making a little update to this 'ere blog.
It's been a crazy month, moved to SF with my new boy Lex and have hardly gotten to even practice DJing! I know, it's a crying shame but if you stop being a baby for a sec I'll give ya some good news:
I now have at my disposal a working Serato box and Turntable (1) at my house! This means there will be practices every day or so and little events like what happened yesterday where I had my friend DJ Peek over and we jammed for 4 hours! Weee! I am stoked that the dust is starting to settle but August is looking to be an interesting month (not just because of Burning Man) still scraping by on min wage and such...
Any way, just wanted to give you a heads up and let you know that I have not died or been abducted or recruited into a cult.. yet.
Much love and many MP3s soon,
Whiskey Devil!

I want my honey

2009-06-30T19:43:00.000-07:00

Hello my darlings,
welcome back to another exciting edition of DJ Whiskey Devil's Blogspot. Served piping hot is a brand spanking new mix of all new music!(to me anyway)
My dear sexi boi Lex1 was kind enough to do a little music-sharing and I present to you a mix I am very proud of:

My Feet Hurt:Breaks, Dub, and a few other things.

Let me know what you think and if you and also an awesome DJ and would like to share some tunes with me and I with you drop me a line!
WhiskeyIsTheDevil (at) gmail (dot) com

In other news: Had an amazing Summer Solstice with OPEL at Mission Rock, watched the sun rise and watched Dex Stakker very closely to see if there is some kind of trick to his perfect DJing. Turns out there are no tricks except that he DJ's like a doctor, every movement with the CDJ's and mixer are precise and smooth. Also, he's very good with a Pioneer DJM 800 and all it's amazing efx.
After that me and Lex1 find his car window was smashed just outside of Mission Rock. We drive back to Potrero Hill and find my window was smashed as well.. strange, eh? Miles away from each other.
Last weekend we celebrated at 2 parties held at the places I usually spin, ACME/Department of Spontaneous Combustion and Magnolia/Candy Mtn. I did no spinning myself but had a fabulous time anyway. Always love listening to DJ Dragn'fly and ONYD Sound System. :)
Hm.. any thing else? Oh, I'm sick with a summer cold but seem to be getting better now thankfully.
Also, half-moving to SF tomorrow after work. Once I start paying rent then I'll really be moving in. What does this mean? Well, all you people that never come see me play in the East Bay because it's too far or whatever can come by, bring me booze and listen to your heart's (or feets) content. If YOU ARE a DJ and would like to battle or just let me play on your stuff drop me a line, that would be awesome!

Ok, long rambling post, will try not to next time...

Dear cuties,
Just wanted to do a little post of stuff I like so you don't decide that my website is dead and never come back.
Lex1's latest Breaks Mix

And some videos I like:

We dis and dismantle no hits

2009-06-16T14:05:00.000-07:00

My sweethearts,
Last week I finally worked out my CD which is my set from Precom!
But you ask, how do you have your set from precom, you were stupid and did not press the record button?
Well kittinz, thanks to the amazing technology of Serato I have my whole set list from beginning to end and even what time I started and ended my songs! So on the morning of Wednesday last week I spun the full hour and a half set again and recorded for it for real for your pleasure (and mine!) Soon, hopefully this week, I shall have at my disposal equipment for turning this recording into a sweet sounding CD and maybe even chop it into bits so you can skip from one song to another! (thanks 2 LEX1) Soon you will start seeing my CD spread around like the black plague and less like the swine flu.
So once I have the finalized version of Precom I will put a permanent link on the side bar so you can always download it and not have to go back through my blog to find it! :D
Thank you again to those who showed up and if you see me soon ask for a CD!
PRECOMPRESSION The Real Story By Whiskey Devil

Good news and bad news but mostly good news

2009-06-09T12:21:00.000-07:00

Welcome peeps! Phew! Last weekend was one of the best weekends of my life. I'm still in a daze from everything so please excuse my bad writing style.
Precompression was amazingly fantastic and not just because I got to DJ at a club for the first time. Everyone on the Brass Tax stage that played after me was top-notch and I'm so glad I got to set the mood for some of my favorite djs. Thank you to Joe Joe and JK Sound for setting up such a bumpin' system and helping me out. Also a big shout-out to all you that came out early to help support me, thanks!
Now a little history.. Last year at Precompression I was a stage manager for 2 different stages at 1015 folsom and delt with a bunch of DJs including my now good-friend One Night aka Zaius. I had also just met :Prophet aka Justin a week earlier. I had no interest in Djing, just volunteering for BM. So in other words thanks guys for the awesome year and for showing me the ropes of DJing!

SOOOO.... any way the bad news is that I didn't record my set. Stupid Zoom and stupid me for not triple checking that it was working and recording. Thanks to Serato I have my whole set list from beginning to end so I shall be re-recording it for your pleasure and maybe make it a CD. I'm hopeing to do that this week but for now I have my Precom Prep recording from a few days earlier.

Pre-precom prep & WD vs :Prophet vs Lex1

Also, if you have any pictures of me from Precom please send them to me!

Get up, go insane!

2009-06-03T12:32:00.000-07:00

I am ecstatic to announce that I am confirmed to be playing at Precompression this Saturday the 6th @ Mission Rock Cafe!
My set is from 8pm-9pm so you guys have to get there early and be ready to dance your ass off for an hour straight!
This is my first REAL NON-WAREHOUSE gig so PLEASE come out and support me. Maybe when they see how big of a crowd came out for lil-old me they will book me for Decompression!
All the info you will need is here.

In other news: The ONYD sound system was kind enough to let me practice for 2 hours yesterday. I was having trouble with one of the CDJs for the first hour so I suggest you just skip 40 or 50 min ahead. Once I got to the 1hour mark I started really having fun with mixing beats together! Dubstep on trance is awesome! Also, the sound level is pretty low so crank it up!

WD @ DSC 6-2-09

2009-06-02T13:22:00.000-07:00

So Saturday instead of going out to DSC for their 2nd party in a row I went and saw Pretty Lights by myself at the Independent in SF. You can download their whole discography at that link, I highly suggest it. The show blew my mind in many ways, when I'm a famous DJ/Producer I will have a live drummer and a giant LED screen from STS9. Big props to all those DJs out there in Colorado.
Met some awesome people people at the show and went to thier place afterwards for a long night of DJing. Fell asleep at around 5am and went to the Space Cowboy's Brunch at the 3 Crowns on Market. Here are the very long MP3's from Sat and Sunday, enjoy!

I am back, yes that's right. Utah was fantastic, 7 days of white water rafting/kayaking down the San Juan River then 7 days hard-core back packing/canyoneering in the Cheese Box area. Made lots of friends and lots of personal discoveries and lost about 10 lbs and gained 10 lbs of muscle.
This MP3 is my first time DJing since I got back.

More posting coming very, very soon!

Waa wa wa waaa...

2009-05-10T12:14:00.000-07:00

Dear Sexies,
I'm sad and kinda happy to report that this will be the last post for a couple of weeks. I'm going to Colorado for a canyoneering and white water rafting adventure 'till the 27th. I was hopeing to give you an awesome CD mix to spread around for me like the swine flu but It's going to take me more than 4 tries to get this mix down perfectly. :P
Here is the FAIL mix for ya.
I would love some feed back from all you CD makin' DJs out there. How do you do it so perfectly? How many tries do you have to do? What's your technick of mixing for a CD? Yadda yadda..
PLEASE give me some emails or comments (Down below) and help me out!

Much love to all you followers out there, I'm gonna miss ya'll!

Dear Darlings,
I have quite a couple of MP3s for yall's listening enjoyment.
Tuesday didn't go so well due to having to pick up my friend in the middle of my set. (I'm that awesome of a friend) So I felt like I had DJ blue balls for the rest of the night. :P
1 WD @ DSC 4-28-09
2 WD @ DSC 4-28-09
Thursday was much better, I had 2 great sets and then my friend Konkers spun some Electro Tech House that rocked everyone's socks off. I'll post some of his stuff once he records something.

2009-04-28T13:10:00.000-07:00

What an amazing weekend! Worked at Guitar Center Friday and Saturday and partied Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Made some very good connections with a bunch of different folks and danced my ass off to some of my favorite local DJs.
Mad props to: ClyMAX, Mr. Rodgers, Jonboy, Dex Stakker, Peek, Influence, Syd Gris, Meat Katie, DJ Amar, Zach Moore, Energy Alchemist, Non Sequitur and the whole Opulent Temple crew. (sorry if I forgot anyone!)

Friday I went to a 420 party that my friend ClyMAX played at and had a surprisingly good time until the cops broke it up at 3am. Saturday went to Opel's 7 yr anniversary at Mission Rock and had the best time dancing since the Evil Breaks party 2 or 3 weeks ago. Stayed up all night and left with some friends around 8am. Continued the party in the upper Haight and DJed my first house party! DJ Non Sequitur brought all his gear over and we tag-teamed from 9am to 4pm on no sleep. I didn't have any of my gear with me so I used all of his music which after warming up worked out REALLY well thanks to Serato.
Sorry, I couldn't record it. :P

Sooo.. phew, just thinking about it makes me happy and tired at the same time.

Working on my set for tonight, will probably be all over the place as usual. I'm starting to get a bit aggrivated that I can't nail down one genra for DSC. I'm finding it very tuff to feel satisfied when creating sets for Tuesday as opposed to Thursday when I know what they are looking for because half of them DJ as well. :Prophet suggested I work on engineering the feeling on Tuesdays, I come up with either dance, depress, or dreamy and I just don't want to do any of those. Blah. Suggestions? Post in Comments!

Focus on Local Artists: Dex Stakker

2009-04-25T12:54:00.000-07:00

While waiting for my next upload I suggest checking out my friend Dex Stakker's music. He's one of my favorite DJs in the Bay Area and every party he spins is badass.
Last year I found a free Dex Stakker CD lying around at some Burning Man party and decided to check it out, rocked my ass off in the car and finally saw him live a month or two later. He's got about 8 mixes out and you can grab them all for free right here!

I find it refreshingly common that a lot of DJs around here are willing to talk to fans (as long as they arn't in the mix!) and from what I can tell don't have super massive egos floating around posturing for each other. Now a days if I listen to a good DJ I'll try and stick around to talk afterward or get a free CD or even just a website (mysface book is not a damn website!) I have not had a bad experience yet that I can remember. ;)

So anyway here's to you Dex, I dedicate my latest mix to you!

In other news, sounds like I'm going to the Opel 7 yr anniversary tonight so maybe I'll see ya there! Look for the girl in the sparkle mask and horns ;)

Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds

Dear darlings,
Thursday was great; Blue sky, temperature in the 70s and a general happy feeling of spring in the air. Worked in my friend Johnathan's shop molding and casting horns then skipped over to Candy Mountain for a few hours before my set. Prepared and organized a couple of hundred songs before playing around 8:30pm.

I'm really happy with this set except for a fuck-up in the middle. (pretend it's not there)
I first heard the crazy remix of Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds at Breakfast of Champions the day after new years. Space cowboys were tearing it up and then THAT song came on and everyone flipped out, one of my happiest memories. :D
Enjoy!

Hello darlings,
Did a pretty good set yesterday and had a fantastic time doing it.
WD @ DSC 4-21-09
Then me and :Prophet did a bit of tag-teaming.
WD Vs. :P @ DSC 4-21-09
Will write more later, not really feeling very wordy today.

Ps. Thank you to all those wonderful people out there leaving me comments! I love you all.
:P

Is that you Chubaca?

Finally got my set from Thursday. Accidentally deleted my set from Tuesday :P (wasn't very good any way)
Sorry it's a WAV again, I need to remember to always change it to MP3 next time!
Also I had kind of a false start with Chubaca, just wait through the 15 seconds of silence,
I'm pretty damn happy with this set and was bouncing all over the place as I DJed. Spent about 3 hours picking out the songs and I'm planning on doing the same for next Tuesday as well. Keep in mind this is a WAV so it takes a while to load, if you internet is slow or crappy I suggest right clicking and saving as to your computer.
Tell me if you have any problems with the file in the comments below or in person.
Enjoy my filthy assistants!

Just another sucker on the vine

I got my first pay check last night from Guitar Center and decided to celebrate by getting really drunk last night at the Black Magic bar. Met a stand up comedian and a tree climber, pretty interesting night. Now, back to work!

Damn, sounds like everyone is heading over to Yuri's Night at the Academy of Science. Some day I'm gonna go but not today, instead I have musical goodies! The 2nd and 3rd recordings from Tuesday:
#2 WD @ DSC
#3 WD @ DSC

Have fun all you sexi astronomers!

Just like you

Hello sexies,
I just did a fantastic set at DSC and will hopefully get those MP3s to you in the next couple of days. For now I have the first of 3 WAVs from DSC on March 31st. Enjoy and tell me what you think in the comments!

Doh

2009-04-01T20:34:00.000-07:00

Hm, weird. I thought I had a new mix but it turned out to be an old one. Damn, I just wasted an hour or two :P
Well any way, I thought I should give a big shout out to my best friends and teachers Prophet and One Night. If it weren't for these guys I wouldn't be a DJ. They also have a great blog that I think you may enjoy so go check it out.

Also, I have great love and respect for DJ Peek with the Ambient Mafia. First time I heard him play my jaw dropped to the floor. We have very similar taste so if you like my stuff go bug him and ask for some of his mixes too. (He's also a real DJ!) Thank you, you rock!

VVelcome...

Greetings darlings,
Welcome to my new blog! I have decided that since I'm actually recording mixes that aren't too bad now I should share them. Here I will be dumping my most recent mixes every week or two for your enjoyment. Here are the mixes I've done up to this point in order from oldest to newest.
