Got a spring/summer sampler from Daptone Records this past month, and it was truly a blessing! They have re-issued another 7" from Bob & Gene, an amazingly talented duo from the early 70's. This record is really an honest statement on the industry back then (which is still VERY relevant now).

It's all good to enjoy music from the past, whether it be by listening, collecting, or DJ'ing. I hold a special place in my heart, though, for people who play music from the past by creating contemporary evolutions of said music. Enter Ikebe Shakedown (ee-KAY-bay). A brooklyn based afrobeat band, creating brand new compositions in the same vein as musicians from 1970's nigeria and ghana.
Classic Heat! Long story short, I discovered this track while listening to my own radio stream.
After finishing college, I could not longer broadcast my radio show from their servers. 8 years into producing and hosting The Cornerstore Radio Show, I couldn't just stop, so I started a 24/7 streaming radio station, which you can listen to at www.cornerstoreradio.com. I tune in pretty often, mostly for maintenance purposes, and I…
Don't know too much about Sebastian, but I've listened to the new record, "TOTAL," and it's pretty dope. Tons of interludes, cool guest vocal appearances, and even this remix from DJ Premier. This track, "Embody," has been called "robotic R&B Soul," and I can't agree more.
This week starts off with a gorgeous lily from the planter in the front yard. There are many plants up there but this is the only one that has bloomed this year. We only had 2 bloom last year and these are simply gorgeous.
Really into this influx of new psych rock soul that has been emerging the past couple of years. This is one of the newest. The Stepkids. Check em. Saw them perform live at the UCLA Jazz & Reggae fest this year. By far my favorite act of the whole day (and they went on…

I remember moving here 3 years ago, after i fell in love with long beach as a kid. I used to always come with my sister to her favorite salon on 4th street. I always told myself that one day I would move to Long beach. When I got my first real paycheck from a great job, the first thing I did was browse for an apartment here in one of the most diverse cities in Southern California. I love the being near the beach, I love the historical university close by, and love the culture that most other…

Participating in the Long Beach Artwalk every month, I get many requests for more photos of this great city but I don't have a large library. I always say that I will be taking them but never really get to it and I'm getting tired of just saying it but never really doing it.
Today I am introducing my Long Beach Photo Project that will hopefully include many great shots in the city we all love. In order to make sure I stick to it and finish it, I am giving myself a deadline.…
Lucha libre is a Mexican wrestling style that evolved from a Greco-Roman wresting and has been popular in Mexico since as early as the 1930's. Lucha libre means "free wrestling" in spanish, and from watching a fight or two, you can see that this wrestling style is about as free as you can get. Don't get it…
