Breaking in the new year down under with radio appearances
in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane - I was inspired by the
demand to hear what's coming out from the West Coast. I
was stoked to share a fusion of styles from Cali producers
like Abstract, ETI, PJ Stroller, Bassnectar, Culture Killer,
2 Block Radius, Deep Alpha and Polar, alongside my fave
UK artists like BLIM, Lee Coombs, Stanton Warriors, Bushwacka
and Elite Force. San Francisco heads can catch me on Friday
March 12 at Space 550 in the room hosted by http://breakthrusf.net
and of course Future Breaks FM on KUSF that Saturday, Los
Angeles heads can catch me later that night on Saturday
March 13 at the "Muses" showcase hosted by http://createfixate.com
As the month of March rolls out, an XM Satellite Radio featured
DJ mix and many more surprises are in store...
Here's
an extra, some funny press blips on the radar:

BEATSYNC

When moving images are synchronized with sounds that capture
the essence of the moment, it is priceless. My new #1 biz
Beatsync is bringing world-class electronic music to quality
media production that we know is in demand. I'm here in
LA digging into this world, and it's a deep one. Music supervision,
licensing, clearance, identity and more, we've got it covered.
This spring will see the launch of our new website, additions
to our growing catalogue of independent tracks and composers,
and the first edition of our CD compilation for production
peeps "Sound To Mood" - with the first volume
exploring the sound of Desire.
ELECTRIC
W.O.M.B.
When the ladies represent, we really represent! The San
Francisco chapter of Electric W.O.M.B. - our non-profit
for women of the music & media business - is going strong.
In a recent contest we held for women DJs with SISTER USA,
hundreds of entries were collected and one lucky gal - Eve
Falcon from LA - won a Vestax mixer and turntable. Kicking
off '04 with a professionals forum for women in the fashion
industry, this completely volunteer-run organization is
planning to expand our online presence, curate more events,
and generate fundraising to support more creative productions
by women. With Independent Arts & Media as an integral
partner, tax-deductible donations to us can now be made
through our site.
FUTURE

M3
SUMMIT | http://www.m3summit.com
March always means heading to South Beach Miami - but after
5 years of merging the WMC thing with my birthday, I was
considering taking a break from the madness until I heard
about M3 = Miami + Music + Multimedia, a proper effort to
bring business back to the beach by the folks who've done
the Miami Master List and the constantly delightful Flavorpill
transmissions. If you are going to be down there, catch
me on-site at Hotel Nash (11th & Collins) helping to
produce the Sunset Sessions and general conference activities.
It's my one chance a year to see my West Coast, East Coast
& UK music friends all in one spot, so really, how could
I miss it? Yay.
