Afro Monk

Reuben Garst is S.P.E.C.T.R.E! This man is a hidden superstar. I had the pleasure of getting to book him for my first event ever at WMC this year. This guy is the real deal people. A member of Denver Bass Squadron (DBS) & Founder of Basslab. This man does it all from production, DJ, promoter, and one BMF.

This release is straight heat!
I’ve been waiting for this to come out for awhile. Ever since I heard VIP Bass ft. Ben Samples appear on Soundcloud I knew that Spectre had to be part of the event I was planning.

He absolutely tore it up at Slippery! I’ll never forget that mash up of Joker vs Biggie he dropped that night. Not only is this man a dope DJ and producer he’s a great human being. He spit some serious knowledge and tips on everything. Without a doubt I’m glad I had the chance to meet him and become friendly with him.

Best of luck to him, he definitely bust his ass for the community!
Be sure to pick up the release over at Addictech!

Greg Fisk, is clearly a force to be reckoned with. You may know him by being 1/2 of Fresh2Death aka Girlfriend Bullshit. He resides right now in Colorado the mecca for Glitch Hop. He put out an EP earlier in 2009 and is back for some more with this new mix, Puzzle Pieces.

I had the pleasure of getting to know him and jam out with him quite a bit during WMC this year. This guy has to be one of the realest and straight up guys I’ve met so far in this endeavor of music.  Don’t sleep on this guy because I promise you Ben Samples and Greg Fisk are on the way to the top of the game and their duo will always be remembered when you speak of glitch hop.

Check out this free mix on Fisk’s bandcamp!
Also look out for Samples new EP, Snowstorm, to drop some serious bombs!

Winter Music Conference brings Miami to life. As an avid partier throughout the year I look forward to WMC every year, despite knowing that driving and parking will be a bitch.

Growing up and being raised in Miami, the Conference is one of the most prized weeks of the year. Most locals don’t even realize how large the WMC really is until they go out and remember that Ultra isn’t the only thing that is going on.

WMC isn’t only about the music; it’s about the energy. Hate to say it, but sometimes not every night out brings that driving force and inspiration. Every event in Miami rakes in a crowd; after all it seems that people like to be sleep deprived in this city. What makes WMC different is the energy of EVERYONE from all over the world coming together. There is so much excitement, dancing, and music to be shared.

You can go out every night of the year and pray to get one night to be like a typical WMC party. If you even get close, it’s an instant win. I take pride in being in front of every stage and dancing till it hurts. I always can gauge the night based on a simple look behind me and see if there are people moving. It’s all about the energy and crowd. Let yourself go in the sea of strangers and bouncing up and down with a drink in one hand and the other in the air.

Go out there this year and put your passion into the music and dance! DJs feed off of this and sometimes you’ll be surprised how many people in the crowd will join you after you started dancing. Who cares how you look or how off beat you feel. Let the music and energy take over. Just go out and have fun!

Make this experience worth every second as it makes it better for everyone.

Alright I’ve been quite busy planning a WMC Event for Miami Glitch with some help from Glitch.fm.

I hadn’t worked on APC for awhile and decided I needed some practice. I ended up getting my own stream the other night and did a 2hr set live. It went extremely well except I didn’t record it. It was my best yet also =(

Decided that I needed something to show a tad bit of what I’ve been doing it. It’s been almost a month since my last mix. Wanted to do something very similar to go back and see if progress has been made. Unfortunately my 30 day trial of Ableton just ran out so I couldn’t use CUE and was doing this mix solely off Master. I’m not entirely too proud of this but know it’s better than my first attempt. Like others said, only way is up from here.

Now that I have Ableton sorted out I can add all my new music and have CUE setup. I’m extremely excited to start my radio show. It will give me tons of practice plus keep me on my toes.

Feedback is welcomed. Have lots to learn still but it’s starting to come together. Making a lot less mistakes and trying to get use to doing this under the influence considering if I ever play out. Got to be ready for anything at any time.

Son of a Glitch!

WMC 2010 Dates are Official, Tuesday March 23rd to Saturday March 27th.

I have such a great feeling about the upcoming events. I know lots of people here have already started making arrangements. Looks like I’ll also be involved in an event if all goes well. Recently been quite active in the Glitch community and they might be trying to throw a party. Right now it’s being discussed so we’ll have to see what the future holds.

WMC is one of the biggest events that goes on in the city of Miami when it comes to electronic music. The infamous Ultra Music Festival is a massive event that people from all over the world come into town for. The week is full of madness and parties non-stop.

If 2010′s WMC is anything close to WMC 2009 I’ll die happy, probably will die considering don’t know how I survived work or sleep deprivation.

Last year I was lucky enough to catch: Plastician, Skream, Benga, Shy FX, 12th Planet, Mala, Rusko, Kutz, Juan Basshead, & many more.

The most exciting part of this upcoming WMC is the fact that Glitch will be present. I don’t care if we have to setup a party in the park or small venue, it will happen.
