Yeah, it's been a second because of the whole holidays thing but I had to come and post the best thing I've seen since forever.

Amazing. Probably the best thing that I've seen since this little shebang.

Thanks to O-Dub from Soul-Sides for putting me up on the Muppets Queen jawn.

Yeah, let's go! Here it is, the one and only Sheen Bros "Scumbag Funk Volume 2" mixed by yours truly. It's 40+ minutes of nothing but that afrosheen. For those that don't know, Sheen Brothers is me and my homie 4th Pyramid. We jokingly decided to come up with a funk / rap group earlier this year, but then after a couple shows and some recording things actually got serious. So with dedication and focus, Sheen Bros is a full on go. Check for the original EP dropping spring of 2010, as well as the LP later on that year featuring an insane lineup of guests.

Ceck the download link for Volume 2 below, and you can click here for a link to Volume 1, mixed by 4th Pyramid. Special shouts to the following people for helping make Volume 2: 4th Pyramid, Tamir, Z. Brown, Mark Lowyns, Raj Mahal, Bird Peterson, Justin Torres, Dante Ross, DJ Nu-Mark, 7l & DJ Beyonder, Stretch Armstrong & Eli Escobar.

Here's a quick interview I did for an upcoming show in Kansas City. I spun here at Czar Bar a few months ago with Eli, Treasure Fingers & Roy Davis Jr. for the Scion Radio Sessions tour and it ended up being one of the most fun gigs of the year. So the venue, along with the Tactic dudes, are bringing me back.

Philly, I'm going to be at PYT tonight getting it in, and that means both spinning and busting out one of their famous cheeseburgers. I'm ready to do it like a G.O.

This Thursday is the release party for Sheen Brothers "Scumbag Funk Volume 2" featuring myself and 4th Pyramid. Stay tuned for the mix, dropping this Monday.

So my good friends over at the UK's Southern Hospitality blog have a series of mixes called "Twelve 12s"  where their DJ friends do a mix using solely twelve 12" in vinyl singles. Considering that I moved most of my vinyl into storage after I moved, that wasn't the easiest task. But I pulled together enough pieces that were lying around my house - new acquisitions and old standby favorites - to make this mix fully "mine." Hope you enjoy it..
