A couple friends of mine that are encyclopedic when it comes to music and myself have decided to start a DJ Crew called Sucker DJs. The unspoken mission of Sucker DJs will be to dispel the myth that all DJs have that "cooler than thou, untouchable" attitude. We're approachable, down to earth guys, playing music that strays away from tedium and repetition. We add flavor to the typical DJ set and we mean that literally.

Along with Jeff Milo, Tom Matich, and myself, as Sucker DJs we'll be playing indie, electro, soul, hip hop, etc. that will move your feet, make you grin and think things that are probably best left unsaid. We'll be playing as part of Encore, a big bash at the Crofoot on Friday, Aug. 29th. Yeah, its approaching fast...

In celebration of the Pontiac's Arts Beats and Eats Festival I'm playing local bands that will be performing there or nearby soon. These are local artists that need to be heard nationally.

This year's NME was held in Las Vegas which came with both good and bad things. The good things were there was tons to do, people to watch and maybe a chance to win some money. The bad was too many distractions, hard to focus on NME and easy to lose money. I was lucky to have share a room with two great Podcasters, Charles from Insomnia Radio SoCal and Steve from Geek Cred (check their shows out!) With those two, I always had a fun time and met lots of people they knew. On this episode, Charles and I did some poolside recording of our perceptions on the show. There's also some great music Charles' recommended and a couple of other surprises. A slide show of my pics will be up in a couple days so check back!

I love electro! Electro of all types. Hyper Crush and Millionaires are electro music to party and dance to. What they may lack in depth they make up for in fun. This is Part 1 of a 2 part episode: a video episode and an audio episode. Part 1 is the video which has just small portions of the interview that will be part of the audio episode, plus a couple other surprises. The video gives a good view of 2 young, enthusiastic, awesome bands on tour.

Part 2: the audio episode will be available Tuesday (8/12/08) night!

On this episode I actually folllow through with something I promise from the previous MPAD episode! It's a video taken from Phonotropic's Wicked Awesome Barbequed Musical Safari...Yesss!

Thanks to the wonderful camera work by Tim Doyle of Stafforrd Media Group you get a front seat to fabulously frenzied experience.
