The Soul Controllers

 

So somehow, we didn't catch it, but we ended up playing "Live at the Barbecue" twice last week; Stylus played it during the first hour, then Elite hit it again after PMD's Little Brother interview. "Looking at the Front Door" was in there, too... Here's hoping that K-Cut and Sir Scratch enjoy the little something extra in their royalty checks.

Quite loquacious and informative that Bush Head Ed, but also quite forgetful having neglected to mention that the store is now open for business. Feel free to move about the site and purchase hot shit. And now, some odds and ends:

- big ups to running into really dope dj's (Shablast and Ragz) you haven't seen in a long time while perusing the stock at Capital City Records.

- big ups to the Little Brother album. If I had heard this at age 13 instead of '3 Feet High and Rising' I would be wondering how Raleigh/Durham could be such a magical place instead of Long Island, NY.

So my boy Complex hits me up on the Nextel while stuck in traffic on the Beltway...



Complex: Yo, your boy Book was killing it on 'PGC this weekend!

Me: So I've heard... But I was in New York-- I missed it. Did you hear him on the Free Lunch Mix today?

C: Yeah, as soon I figured out it was him, I was hooked. Plus Michelle let him talk as the mix winded down... He said something about a CD he's got in stores?

Me: The CD comes from an hour of the show we did a while.. The set's bananacal.



I'm sure we said more on the subject, but the drugs are starting to kick in... Anyways, on to the point: DC area types can regularly catch Book in the mix on WPGC 95.5 on Fridays from Midnight-3am and Saturdays from 10pm-Midnight... Plus, THIS WEEK ONLY, catch a bonus DJ Book set during the mid-day mix thie Wednesday at Noon.



Who says DC radio sucks? (PMD, but hey, what does he know?)

Thanks to Dirty Handz and Athanasia Ink for coming through last week...



By the way, that show marked our first anniversary on XM... No fanfare, though-- our plans to do something special got squashed; besides, there's too much serious stuff going on in the world...



Coming up this weekend, we've got sets from Stylus and Mr. Elite on the schedule... There's 300-something-thousand XM subscribers out there now... Surely you're no more than six degrees from someone who has the jont... Make friendly with that person and catch the show this weekend...
