All of pete's promos got me thinking I need to bounce another office check, son!

MAD promos and unopened mail?!?!
we listen to them all... eventually.
we definitely open that shit... at some point... in the future... kind of... near...

shop vac?!?! always lurking... THAT's what's up...
shout to my pleather brown suitcase in the upper left.
Keeping it packed since '86.

we kill a messy desk. don't even test the messy desk!

son! always reppin' the clean dip-dips!

what you know about me bloggin' like 10 times in one week?! yeah, i'm like 5 beers into it already...
ps. what's the difference between an intern and an assistant (excluding the pay thing)? No, this is not a joke...

Basically my posts have been non-existent because I've been talking to girls and going out. I think I technically had a girlfriend for like a minute. FTY: NYU International Studies majors who do a lot of coke are trouble... stay away.

I think I might be into older hipster women now. I don't know, this is a feeling I've been dealing with as of late but I think I'm going to go with it. Basically if you're between 27 and 34 and like Siouxsie and the Banshee and are into the visual arts (excluding ceramics) I might want to holler. Get at me.

Anyways...

I went to the loft party where Lloyd was DJing at last Saturday. It was pretty awesome i.e. ladies everywhere dressed in prom attire. Incidentally this was a prom themed party held after some bike race. Some dude showed up naked with a car bumper... I didn't catch his story. I was just starting to mingle when the cops busted in and confiscated P-Gorgeous' ID. Shatterfest.

I ride a bicycle now and it's pretty awesome. It's one of P-Gorgeous' old Schwinns that was being kept in our clothing room. Out of all the bicycle riders I know Gonz and P-Gorgeous are the elite of elite bike dudes. Their rides are pretty serious.

As always: kind of joking but mostly serious,
David Pitts

P.S. I need to implement the phrase "girl I want to break you off" into my vocabulary and be able to say it with passion.

PP.S. A bit late I know but here's my 4/4 garage edit of "Throw Some D's:" Dr. Pitts "Throwin Crazy D's" You know this shit is big when PH is playing this non stop in the office all day. I was going for ironic yet playful.

F' what ya' heard! It's all about Turntable Lab Radio!
New show update with exclusive tracks from the Secret Hideout testpress!

i'd have to agree with the unemployed one...

hahaha... no dirt. no dirt. no dirt.
yes, lloyd, off the chain is one way of putting it.
i doubt some people want me to list details, so all I'll say is california is great, warm and friendly, and I enjoy working with such talented and creative people... um, or something like that.

jesus josh!
everyone knows california blows. u can sugar coat it all u want with pictures of dudes but everyone already knows the deal. why dont you quit beating around the bush and tell everyone how unbelievably off the chain your photo editor is? wheres the dirt josh?

im sayin...

always,
unemployed Lloyd

BTW. this blog needs more dirt. its getting more and more cornball with every entry. i blame myself partly. even god needs a break guys. tho sometimes uncomfortable to read i kinda miss pitt's depressing diary like entrys.

that being said...a true story.
i once went to sleep so drunk i pissed on the girl i was sleeping with. lucky for me i woke up before she did which gave me enough time to shower, change my clothes, get back in bed, wake her up and blame it on her. she was mortified and now when ever she knows im in or coming to the same club shes at she immediately leaves.

said girl if youre reading this...im very sorry.

dirt.

oh, and the roc totally owns this coat now. jeah!

last week i got to dj this fashion event and dug out this edit and then mixed it into this remix. It got the female approval, so let me know how it goes.. you're welcome. On a semi related note I have been hearing some triple mash ups out lately, and well... I'm hoping things can progress beyond MJ vs JT vs Fiddy, right? May I suggest,, umm, Peter, Bjork & John Secada ? Also has anyone else noticed a genre on myspace called emotronica? I kinda like that.

As I mentioned before, I just got back from a week in CA doing some things for the release of the new issue of RE:UP (yes, I'll plug it again). Here are some picts...

Lunch at Chateau Marmont. Bloody Marys, Wine, all that highbrow shit. That's Peter aka Thanksgiving Brown, Jessica the photo editor, and me... Lindsay Lohan took the snap.

Frosty from Dublab played the LA party. He also gave us a ride home in his volvo.

The mini van (recommended) we rented to drive up and down the coast, summoned The Gaslamp Killer to come.

Nothing quite like a 6 hour dive with GLK in the car. No shortage of conversation here.

SF was nuts... Somehow we ended up at an afterhours party hosted by circus performers / contortionists. I don't know... Appearantly, it was "Fleeky's" going away party?!?! Anaywhoo, DJ Balloon Knot thought it would be a good look to drop pants and do some stretches on the couch. Fuckin San Francisco... same old shit.

Kirby D kept the party going thru next morning..

Other highlights include bumping into Plug 1 at LAX, seeing Hollywood James put in the extra hard work at the Lab LA Store, In-N-Out about 6 times, The Turf Club in SD, catching up with folks at Stones Throw and Sound-In-Color, and of course, the highly touted Thanksgiving Brown single "going out to eat," which sounds phenomenal on a loud speaker.

Happy May you shit-asses! I know it's not technically May yet, but whatever, I made a vinyl mix to see if I still have the chops for it post-Serato (news flash: I don't). These are pretty much all records I've found recently b/c I've been unemployed and thus spend an inordinate amount of time shopping for records. It has a housier vibe this go-around, mixed in my bedroom while the sun was shining outside. Phermones are everywhere right now!

VINYL MIX FOR MAY

wow.

this reminds me of when i used to work at the lab. summer 04 to be exact. those were the days. strolling into work between 1030 and 11(schedualed at 930), myspacing most the day, packing 3 boxes an hour and talking shit...lots and lots of shit. i was the last to get there and the first to leave. i purposely didnt ask for my 2nd year raise cus i didnt want to have the "well, you havent done shit since you got here" talk. man those were the days! anyway, back then i had a radio in my bathroom and every morning id listen to the hot 97 morning show before work. i remember this show like it was yesterday. that summer everyone and their mother (myself included) was on the mad dash for summerjam tickets. turntable lab wasnt the over powering force they are today so back then average joes like myslef had to wait in line and/or smack each other fot tickets. enjoy.

by the way. see if yo can spot ashy larry's voice in the backround. ha.

unemployed lloyd

ps. there's a huge loft party this sat in brooklyn. the no headphone policy may be in effect. if you have my phone number and/or email get at me. if not...no worries theres plenty going on this weekend.

pss.people (white) kill me sometimes. im quik to give you guys mad credit for your amazing feats (ex: freeing the slaves) but then i see some shit like this...wtf people(white)?

psss. the reason i quit drunk dialing.

my cousins made a video about the girls in our neighborhood and here it is, special thanks to serg the camera man.

throwback trance dj of the day:
SVEN VATH

it's a chilled out friday in the office....

shota the database is on vacation in tokyo, so today's deliveries are still unpacked... lots of goodies await including new Recon gear, Stones Throw Dilla boxsets and Parra shirts, etc...

i was trying to take some candid work shots, but Ak-Boogs recomposed himself without me even giving a cue. check the smirk...

young busy b admires our new coat racks. man, I love me our coat racks. you don't know how functional they are until you have one... highly recommended...

pro-squad in deep concentration... minimal man makes his blog pic debut, he's the dude with his back turned...

customer service pretty busy at 4:30... and yes, Dr. Pitts does exist...

and as usual, my promo stacks aren't any shorter this friday... cds, records, catalogs... this is for those people who don't believe me when I say I will listen to your promo, it just takes time...

and in honor of Shady Dude (where are you man?)

tang of the moment:
that new agent from Entourage....

you want to talk mad production skills? program an arp odyssey and a yamaha cs.80 to make the "doctor who" theme song.

He doesn't seem the sort of bloke we want in this country.

In other news...

RE:UP 13 is the bees-knees

coming up... photos from CA trip with one gaslamp killer and a kirby dominant.

Did anybody else witness what happened between Kaka and Giggs in the Champions League a couple days ago?? In what other sport can one athlete grab an opponent by the NECK and not get his ass RON ARTEST'ed!?!?!?!? Ron Artest did what he did cause he had a drink thrown at him. Imagine if the fan who threw it put his hand around Ron's NECK!!! Where were Giggs' teammates? I know Ronaldo would NEVER do anything to back up his fellow Red Devil, but I would have thought that Wayne Rooney would have been Giggs' Stephen Jackson, let alone Jermaine O'Neal!!!! I'm sorry to all my fans reading this in England, but you British people are pussies.

A.I., a Virgina native, the only NBA player paying respect to V. Tech in the playoffs, should be noted, but of course the white media hates on Black Jesus.... so here you go, props from Boy Genius.

in about a month, we'll be releasing some Money Studies shirts including the infamous Mad Decent Chunk shirt from Diplo's Australian tour (for the record, Snack did the illustration).

we'll also have the 1988 Bullets design featuring Manute Bol and Muggsey Bogues, the only teammates ever to hold the titles of tallest and shortest player (respectively) in the NBA.

lastly, after tons of requests from Blu Jemz and "his people who have been asking for it." we're printing up Second Cousin logo shirts....

shirts will be available on the site, the LA store, Boundless, Colette, Premium Goods, Krudmart, and other fine retailers. if you have a store and want some, click here for more info...

also coming real soon (we just got the test presses)...

the Secret Hangout EP

Kid Sister's long awaited debut 12" on Fools Gold (distro'd by Money Studies)

and lastly, we are almost gone through this limited pressing, probably our fastest selling release ever... Go Alex!

Late Summer/Fall
- much more Fools Gold action
- exclusive Diplo remix of Peter Bjorn & John's ridiculous indy anthem "Young Folks" (did I just say "ridiculous indy anthem"?)
- Secret Hangout pt.2
- new Hollertronix 12"
plus more!

Turntablelab dudes aren't the only ones with a Brooklyn Radio show - The Rub has been doing it weekly since last summer! Check out our History of Hip-Hop Series, one show per year from 1979-1989.

The Rub is in Manhattan on Saturday, Boston on Tuesday and Brooklyn next Saturday, and I'm solo in Chicago tonight and Cleveland next Friday.

thanks, Ak. my favorite part was when T-kat did the headbutt and you then realized that you we're gonna put it on the blog, and you started chuckling.

My friends know that I'm kind of dangerous with a camera in my hands. Film, Digital and format doesn't matter ( PH is pretty dangerous too). They know that if they want to act a fool while we're out they are going to get caught. So here are two of my favorite people Nemiss (first lady) and T Kat (brotha from anotha) tearing the club up. T Kat two step and yelling in the camera priceless!!! - ak boogs

jeff mills is playing at pacha this friday, and i might crap my pants. don't know who jeff mills is? better get yourself on to discogs, youtube up "purpose maker mix", and get ready for a mind-fuck. and for those that know, he's also "the wizard" of detroit funk / hiphop / house radio fame.

yeah, being from detroit, i've seen him a gazillion times...but this time he's doing his "one man spaceship" tour. now, i'm not entirely sure he'll replicate the insane setup he has going on in this picture, but even if he doesn't, he'll drop some serious knowledge on you.

it makes me love techno more and more...

and for the record...

this kind of makes that tiesto clown look like...umm...a clown?

just to prove how powerful tiesto is in...well...the entire world (and quite possibly the universe), witness this blatant display of raw talent...

and i'm talking about 1m30s in to this beast.

seriously? how does anyone even compete with this guy? i should sell all my shit now and call it a day. i mean, they give the guy an award at the end of the clip for "greatest dj in the world" or some trite shit. good job thedjlist.com! way to elevate mediocrity to its pinacle!

TIESTO! began DJing professionally at school parties, and then moved on to become a resident DJ between 1985 and 1993 at several clubs in The Netherlands. During these years, TIESTO! produced hardcore/gabber tracks under the aliases Da Joker and DJ Limited. However, it was at the Spock[2], a small club in Breda, where TIESTO! was able to finetune his own style by playing in a separate room from 10 pm until 4 am on weekends. In the mid 1990s, TIESTO! started to produce trance, and in 1997 he and Arny Bink co-founded Black Hole Recordings to support his work. A series of singles were released under various aliases, such as Allure, Drumfire, Hammock Brothers, Paradise in Dubs, Passenger, Roze, Stray Dog, Tom Ace, and Wild Bunch.

TIESTO's! fame started to skyrocket in the late 1990s by playing at the first ID&T Innercity party, and in the early 2000s for his six-hour "TIESTO! Solo" sets which TIESTO! performed without other DJs or opening acts. This idea, of one DJ playing alone to a large crowd, was brought to its pinnacle when TIESTO! was the first DJ to hold a solo concert in a stadium. On May 10, 2003, he performed for over 25,000 people in Arnhem's Gelredome. Dubbed "TIESTO! in Concert", the event was an enormous success for Verwest. TIESTO! repeated this type of concert in the next year during two consecutive nights in late October. In addition to holding these two concerts for 35,000 of his fans, he held another for 20,000 in Hasselt, Belgium the week afterwards. DVDs of both his May 10 2003 and October 30, 2004 concerts have been released.

In 2007 TIESTO! will return to the large scale gigs, announcing the Elements of Life tour. Several dates have been confirmed so far. One in the Kings Hall in Belfast, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom on 31 March and the other in the Ethias Arena in Hasselt, Belgium on 19 May. On May 31, June 1 and 2 2007 he will perform another three live shows at Gelredome in three consecutive nights.

As of April 6 2007 TIESTO! will start presenting a new weekly 2 hour radio show called "Club Nouveau" on Dutch radio station Radio 538 (stream @ www.radio538.nl). The show will be broadcasted on Friday night between 22.00 and midnight (GMT+1) and will supposedly also be available worldwide as a 2 hour podcast.(RECOMMENDED!)

TIESTO's! motto is: "I feel the energy from the crowd and I try to give it back."

an then it happened. again.

tomorrow night we sing.

A message from our friends, Freenews & Plastic Little:

REMIX UPDATE!!!
Ok, so because dares one person working here at the "label" we have extended the deadline to midnight Monday April 23 to deal with the number of remixes we have gotten. Big shout outs to the crew who sent us a full beastie boys song without any of our lyrics on it and the Swedish calypso remix with that hot sounding byrd. Some good shit, Mostly. . . oh the doom ghostbuster joint is the SHIT!!! anyway, we will post the semifinalists on the site monday the 30th.

ALL YALL NIGGAZ DEAD!!! VIDEO!!!
So here's the next video from our series of videos called, “I heard those dudes are gay, but they are weird as shit also…” Lindsay Kovnats provides an excellent feminist portrayal of what its like to be black man in contemporary America. A real political piece.

This guy's rap name is Pimp Killa Thug. I just thought that was worth noting. Not to be confused with Krazee Eyez Killa, pictured below.

Here is a mini-mix I did for the month of April. For some reason there's a lot of 90s rock/pop on it. If you ask me why, the answer is "meh."

hats off boy genius.

i hardly remember any of this. i thought id put my two cents in but...fuck it. you win. next time someone asks me about wrestling (hot women included) i will gracefully bow out and refer them to you. your knowledge of professional wrestling is uncanny and you know waaay more then me. and for that im putting you on blast.

you go boy!

ladies and gentleman.

if you see this guy on the
street strike up a conversation he knows everything there is to know about professional wrestling.

btw. rick rude(rip) il give you but in retrospect rick "english is my second language" martel was the fucking worst...how can u not see that!?

love
unemployed lloyd

ps. rad post

VAL WHO?

C'mon now playboy, get your facts straight... Lloyd, I'm about to take you to class.....

Yes, he is a model.

Rick "The Model" Martel was truly ahead of the time. Absolutely nobody made any connection at the time to all the references he would make to sex. And what the hell is up with the obnoxious spray can of cologne???? He used to spray peeps with the shit in the eyez to blind the bitches. However, my most favorite thing about The Model is when he would be in the corner of the ring, dizzied and hanging on the turnbuckle after taking a beating, while his opponent would go across the ring to charge at him with a devastating blow, perhaps a flying splash or a clothesline. As the opponent nears The Model, just as the Boy Genius would, Rick Martel would not just run out of the way.... the motherfucker CARTWHEELED HIMSELF OUT OF THE WAY!!!! It only gets better... After the cartwheel, Martel would then proceed to do a series of traditional JUMPING JACKS in place, and then drop down to one knee and do a traditional two-arm flex pose, all to exhibit his quickness, agility, strength, and of course, his beauty. Yes ladies and gentlemen, HE IS A MODEL.




And who could really forget this pioneer......



"Ravishing" Rick Rude is like Grandmaster Flash to today's WWE. I used to think this guy was strange, way before I even knew what "gay" meant or what "homosexuality" was. Even so, none of this shit is gay, ITS GENIUS!!!!! Check out these classic trunk designs (mind you, he would have new specially designed ones each fight...



Bathing Ape, wha? I believe the "Ravishing One" started the 'all-over' print



This one is one of many similar... dude LOVED to have his face on his crotch, so he could gyrate his crotch in dudes faces.... once again, no homo, just showing off and disrespecting, no homo. In this case, he is actually doing it to a woman.



What was even better than his own face in his crotch is when he would put OTHER peoples faces on it. Remember when Jay-Z put the picture of Prodigy of Mobb Deep's picture of him doing some ballet shit on the big screen at HOT97's summerjam? Where do you think he got that idea from?? Pictured above is a picture of Rick kissing Miss Elizabeth, the WIFE of his opponent, Macho Man Randy Savage. "OOOOH YEEEAAAH!!!!" take that take that take that.



This design however, is my favorite. On his quest for the WWF Intercontinental Championship, Rick Rude produced this classic trunk on the EVE of the title match: a life-size airbrushed Intercontinental Championship Belt. When Rick Rude won the match, he put the belt around his waist, which sat above the airbrushed image, thus creating this cool visual effect.


And yes, that is an anchor tat on his right bicep... no homo.


Class Dismissed,

Professor Boy Genius, P.H.D. (Playa Hatin' Degree)

damn i miss wrestling.

Justice came about in 2003, when Gaspard Auge (aka "The Moustache") and Xavier de Rosnay (aka "The China") met in the kitchen of a packed house party and found a mutual love for spitting beer in girls' hair. The two soon met Pedro Winter - notorious rainbow man and founder of Ed Banger Records - who was one of the first to hear their then-just-completed bedroom remix of Simian's "Never Be Alone." Like most of the people who would hear it over the next couple years, Pedro instantly loved the track, and as it spread far and wide, being spun by DJs like Soulwax, Miss Kittin, Tiga and Erol Alkan, and hated on (video-wise) by folks like Kanye West. Lab heads will pretty much know the story from there (Waters of Nazareth EP, crazy live shows, Ed Banger exploding), but Vice wanted us to pass along the info on the next big wave in the Parisian invasion: Justice's debut full-length will be released on July 10, and the title is...

And of course, if you really cant't wait 'til July for yer Justice, you can get the new Ed Rec, Vol.2 comp RIGHT NOW, which includes the Justice track "Phantom."

Ps. i guess i should say something funny now...huh?

FAYBAN!

New Nossa gettin' bad on ya'

New shorts from Fresh Jive ...

and this bad mamma. The newest Suicide Girls.

Stay tuned...

From about 1988 to the end of high school in 94, I was an official hip hop purist in the land of twinkies (Tollgate HS where you at)... buying, dubbing and thieving anything I could get my hands on- from Mr Lee to Poison Clan me and my big brother had EVERYTHING. Anyway, like a lot of people, I lost interest somewhere around 95-96 and never really looked back. At first I was into the "classics" partys in NY but now the idea of a "92" party or some shit makes me want to put my head through a wall- I thought we had finally reached the point where it was safe to go out and not hear DWYK? I still like a lot of new stuff that comes out, and it even gets some itunes burn from me, but the early 90s stuff has been dead to me for a long fucking time.

And the point of all this? Go to Stretch Armstrong's blog and download that Nas demo. Un fucking real. Just magic magic magic. Maybe not so much for those of you that didnt spend your 16th summer blunted, getting coochie and arguing about what the best song on Illmatic was... but yeah that's that shit.

While the daily's gettin fixed, sit back and enjoy the ride. New Lab radio update.
New tracks from Kid Sister and Simian Mobile Disco, big funk, disco and surprises.

so i never did get a new digital camera, but Contra came thru and emailed me some final miami highlights

"yes, we are french, we make afterparty.."

peaches visorglasses were pretty killer

later at the shore club ayers got busy

drinks are how much?

contra made it essential to spread the 305 handstyle (you can't really do a 718 with your fingers, eh?)

on top of the world!

and then there was this.. the photo everyone has been asking about . we did an ed banger afterparty from 5am-10am. it was a blur with dj sets by franki chan, woodman, egg foo, mehdi, so me, and the 10am crusher xxxchange. also present were: fancy, jake, xavier, spank rock, roxy, roger yamaha, blu jemz, andrews, neil nice, some skaters, some hipsters, and some sluts.

New quick mix I did in Ableton available for your huffing, snorting, hating-on, and generally being over it RIGHT HERE!

All you music nerds, here's a great word: benighted. It means to exist 'in a state of pitiful or contemptible intellectual or moral ignorance, typically owing to a lack of opportunity’
