Jay Def and I got together on my last day on my Spring Break Road Trip to hang out, eat some grub, and throw down our first tag team mix since December. It’s always really fun to hang out with Jay and mixing beats with him is a real pleasure. Jay takes risks with his […]
During my recent road trip to the Northwest, I decided to throw down a mix in my hotel room in Seattle after a long day of driving across parts of Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. I decided to slide the tempo down to 123 bpm and play a nice, laid-back deep house mix. I really like […]
I’ve just returned from a spring break road trip with my family. I spent a lot more money than I intended to and managed to get my first speeding ticket in more than a decade. Here are ten things we did which we enjoyed the most. Toured the Theo Chocolate factory in Seattle and learned […]

Nothing feels quite like hitting a milestone. This evening’s 5K run was my 50th CrossFit workout of the day of the year. That’s 50 of 50. So far, in 2009, I’ve done 100% of the assigned workouts of the day with no misses. Next month, I’m taking a road trip for Spring Break, but I’m […]
