New Mix from DJ Platurn

Image
Dj Platurn of the Oakland Faders is a good friend of mine. He also happens to be one of the best and most creative DJs around. There are just not a lot of cats who will put so much time and care into making thier mixes intricate, clever, fun and encompassing. All in all I think with all the technology that is in the hands of modern DJ folks should really put some work into their mixes rather than slap them together in a day or two, and I salute the small handful of folks who go that extra mile. Hats off to my homie Luke. DJ Platurn - Journey Into Sound Check out his website and for more goodies and shout out to mixerfriendly.com.

Huayno En Cumbia

Let's take a little Cumbia break ~ unusual and heavy tune out of Peru. Got a bit of a raw 60s 'ska' feel to it. I really dig this style. Falsa Moneda
