Some new blood up in here. Paul Duncan kindly put together a mix for Bird and Whale. Paul and I met when he was in town recording his new album “Above the Trees” at Soma. Actually, strike that. I think we may have met briefly in a bar in Brooklyn before that. Anyway, the mix is super good. Lots of ground covered and it’s still solid as hell. I think Paul may be touring around Texas pretty soon. If you happen to be in that part of the world, go check him out.

Not much else to report around these parts. I’m getting my wisdom teeth taken out tomorrow. If I weren’t, I would go catch the Bumps DJ set at Sonotheque w/ John McEntire, Dan Bitney, and John Herndon tomorrow night. It’s part of the Stones Throw Residency there @ Sonotheque. I would give my right nut (figuratively speaking), if MF Doom would come and do a MC set there.

I recently got turned on to www.last.fm . Pretty cool way to get turned on to new music. To take advantage of most of the stuff, you need to create a profile. My profile is /bradshaw_out/ if you would like to see what I’ve been listening to. Maybe we could be friends?!
