Purse Thursday - Reghann

I am interviewing the purses of women again and again. These women do not know they are going to be interviewed, so catching them and their purse in their utmost natural presence is very important. I'm excited to learn more about the fashions and styles of women, see how much stuff they carry around, and just how clean or nasty they are. Shall we?

Recently, I got to meet some very great people while working and touring with Crypts. One of them is not only the wife of the lead singer, but also my new personal hair stylist. This woman is filled with class and a whole lotta sassafras. She carries a purse bigger than most suitcases. A few weeks ago we drank with a group of friends all over The Hill. I give to you, Reghann and her purse.

American Hipster - Linda Derschang

I am so happy to see this video today. It's been so much fun to share in Linda's vision of Bait Shop opening up very shortly. She has been in the game for some time now, and at the very least, I can say I am jealous for what she does. I look forward to working with her more in the future.

12 Seattle Days of Christmas

Thanksgiving is over! Christmas is upon us! I decided to make some Christmas cards for such the occasion. Please share these with all of your closest loved ones. Available at Alive and Well, Kaleidoscope Vision and Joe Bar. Thanks and enjoy!

2 Chainz Video Game

The game begins as Two Chainz is innocently shooting some hoops in his hood, when suddenly his Two Chainz get mysteriously stolen. This takes you on a wonderful 8-bit adventure where the rapper shouts out numerous tag lines while hurdling random obstacles.

The Physics - So Funky

Love. This. Thank you, gentlemen, for always giving me some shit to groove to. Thig is always one of my favorites with his flow.

Cody ChesnuTT - Live on KEXP

Some of you many know my obsession with this man since his Headphone Masterpiece back in 2002. His raw recording style, gorgeous vocals, and simply smart lyrics always kept my ears perked up ("All I need is pussy, give me some religion, a brand new Cadillac, and a winning lotto ticket"). He released his second album this past October, Landing On A Hundred, and I've been digging it a lot lately. This video captures him performing in his best setting, him and his guitar.

Marley Marl WBLS

I've been listening to a lot of old school rap today thanks to these lost tapes of Marley Marl on WBLS in the mid/late 1980's. It's refreshing to hear cut after cut after cut with no additive bullshit. The commercials them self are a great bonus kicker!

These women do not know they are going to be interviewed, so catching them and their purse in their utmost natural presence is very important. I'm excited to learn more about the fashions and styles of women, see how much stuff they carry around, and just how clean or nasty they are. Shall we?

Sadly, one my friends and coworkers has taken a little hiatus from Neumos to go live in West Virginia or somewhere for six weeks. I do hope she returns and finds a job that suits her and all of her dreams. Before she left, I had to take a peak inside her new favorite satchel. Everyone... meet Kate and her purse.

Radjaw: How long have you had it?
Kate: Someone left it here about a month ago.
Radjaw: So you took someone else's purse from lost & found?
Kate: Well, not exactly.. It was a gear bag for someone and they left it behind. After a while, nobody claimed it and I figured it was some band travelling on tour. It looked so good on me, I snatched it up!
Radjaw: Can we take a look inside?
Kate: Uhh.. okay!?

DJ Apt One - Fich So Saxy

West Philly homie, DJ Apt One, has a new EP out and this one has been a long time coming. "The title track was originally on DJ Sabo and Sol Selectas’ “Moombahton Massive” Vol. 3, which was released as promo for a Moombahton Massive event at SXSW in 2011. Ultimately, I built a number of tunes in a similar style as an off-shoot of my work with Gregor Salto’s label Downpitch and the B-Side “Red Meat” was born. I remixed both tunes myself, and my good buddies lil’dave (Illvibe) and Vjuan Allure lent remixes as well.

The result is more or less an afro-latin styled Moombahton record – I played lots of live instruments- something that really hasn’t been done in Moombahton’s short history."

Flying Lotus - Until The Quiet Comes

This is beautifully filthy. I cannot wait for the new album October 1st.

OCnotes - "Walk"

OCnotes has a new album droppin here soon.  He and I decided to literally take a track off the album and turn it into a little promo/music video.  Took less than an hour to shoot and less than 10 joints for me to edit.  Check out OCnotes.net

Katie Kate - Zombie

New track by Kate. She is going to cut your head off. She plays Bumbershoot this Sunday September 2nd at 1:30pm on The Promenade stage.





"Zombie" was created the morning after a vivid dream - Kate was held captive in a 1960's ranch-style house in upstate New York, surrounded by fields and cliffs full of fossils. Her captors trained her in the art of the samurai sword so that she could help exterminate the hordes of zombies that rose up from the tall grass at dusk. The inevitability of sunset and the fury of battle inform this dreamy, ominous and bloodthirsty glimpse into Kate's subconscious.

Production, Beats and Lyrics by Katie Kate
Recorded and Mixed at Studio Nels, Seattle by Charlie Smith
Executive Producer - Charlie Smith

DtttC! what's the 411 remix?

The remixers, in order of appearance:

Rubicon 7 Swag Treated Treated Swag (Rubicon 7 remix) (Trashed Contest Winner!) Rubicon 7 is the creative hybrid of Elizabeth Thompson’s cutting-edge DJ sensibilities together with the production and composition of the classically trained Brandon Scott. Their unique collaboration results in an unmistakable style that blurs the lines around the typical genres of electronic dance music.

Wolf Couture Big Ass Head (Wolf Couture remix) Wolf Couture is a creation of Kevin Ross (a.k.a. DJ Teenwolf) the founder and former dj/producer/songwriter for the critically-panned Brooklyn band, Ninjasonik. Inspired by a mix of Based God rants, internet memes and an all-out love/hate relationship with the current state of “hip-pop” culture, Wolf Couture bravely makes music that has been known to irritate/entertain listeners through its deranged use of repetitive lyrics and bizarre concepts.

The Major Cities Tip Toe Right By Em (tmc remix) The Major Cities is the solo musical project of Joshua Rule.

Keyboard Kid Someday I’m Gonna Be Rich (XXX Bvsed Mix – Keyboard Kid x DtttC!) KEYBOARD KID IS A MUSIC PRODUCER FROM SEATTLE,WA.

Mash Hall Swag Treated Treated Swag (MASH HALL LOVE FAMILY THICKER THAN BLOOD remix) MASH HALL LOVE FAMILY THICKER THAN BLOOD

Astronomar Girls Buy Me Drinks (Astronomar remix) Without exaggeration, Astronomar is one of the most exciting new producers out there. There’s an intangible uniqueness to everything he does, and a strong hip-hop influence which give his tracks a hardcore, but incredibly fun vibe. Since his first release, Had To Move On, on Neoteric’s Turned On Vol.2 last summer, he’s released on Mad Decent imprint Jeffrees, and Top Billin’ (Style of Eye proclaimed his release the best ever from the label). The biggest names, from Diplo to Crookers to A-trak, have supported his tracks nightly, while we wait for the rest of the world to catch on. This is that next shit.

Nightmare Fortress - Hang You On The Wall

New video by some good friends with the creepiest old guy I think I've ever seen. This shit definitely gives me the heebie jeebies.

Diplo - Set It Off

Diplo debuts a video for his track “Set it Off,” a collaboration between Diplo and Lazerdisck Party Sex. It’s definitely NSFW and set in a strip club in space with strippers cascading the screen on a never-ending stripper pole. Regardless, I think it was tastefully done. Ha! Sheesh..
