something chill from soph & @sassssh 💫 #scratchlikeagirl

Friday P-Bass session. Keni Burke, “Risin’ to the Top” is an absolute masterclass in groove and a mainstay of my digital + analog crates 💿 My copy unfortunately has his name spelled wrong, which bugs me. The fingering on this tune was always pretty tricky for me. Shoutout to bass sensei @thecitypopbassist for helping me out with that 🙋🏻‍♀️

love scratching, loop mixing, and just jamming with people that genuinely love music like @sassssh 💿💖💫 #scratchlikeagirl

Dj @sassssh came through with that 🔥💯🔊 Locked in from start to finish🎚️ 🎥 Full set up now Link in bio or visit YouTube.com/@LiveAtTheRecordFair Recorded live at @losangeles_recordfair Presented & produced by @djhandprints & @beatswapmeet

Scratching like a girl 💿🎧 w/ @sassssh #InternationalWomensDay

2 records (with doubles, technically 3), 1 sample. I found these Keyshia Cole “Let it Go” doubles on a whim at @saltboxrecords and had to cop. More recently, I found this copy of Allure featuring LL Cool J, “No Question” from Saltbox for 2 bucks! The universe dictated that the records had to be merged into one contiguous mix incorporating some vinyl DJing skills I’m always working on. Shoutout to Mtume.

Saturday session on the P bass, showing this #SireP5 some love. A few months ago, I swapped out my strings to flats and swapped out my pickup to a Fender Pure Vintage 63. Liking how it sounds so far 🧘🏻‍♀️ Playing along to the Erykah Badu’s “Didn’t Cha Know,” a hypnotic bassline with a sample from Tarika Blue’s “Dreamflower,” played by the great Pino Palladino on the Erykah track. It’s a fitting song to learn, given the upcoming anniversary of Mama’s Gun (and her recent show here in LA at the bowl). Also fitting, given the Pino-esque P bass colorway 🎸

Saturday sessions feat. Marvin, D’Angelo, Janet, and G-Unit. Playing around with loops and samples turned into curating a little R&B crate and creating a whole vibe. Weekends are made for this.

Been a long time since I posted a vinyl routine, but I had some ingredients and cooked one up using “Synthetic Substitution” (@reservoirrecordings ), “Ego Trippin’”(@mrbongoworldwide ), and Big Honky Breaks (@djrevolution ) Added text to this one because I was ashamed of my dusty table/wanted to hide it (and the dust is still visible, don’t @ me 😭)

A few moments from another fun one at The Overland over in Redlands, CA. Rocked the Taula M4 rotary with some timeless cuts on wax, while of course, not missing any opportunities to play some dope samples, covers, and remixes. A few long transitions were also necessary 😌 Big ups to the staff for the hospitality, and to all the awesome patrons for jamming out with me 🎸🎚️. #instavinyl #instavinylclub #instavinylrecords #instavinylcommunity #instavinylpost #hifibar #hiphopsamples

Ceremonial pre-NAMM jam, party of 1. A few bars to warm up for #thenammshow. I’ve been a total bum at home, but I’m really grateful to be safe and to have these turntables back up and reconnected after taking everything down (out of an abundance of caution) after the evacuations in my area a few weeks ago. These past few weeks (months, really) have been heavy, no doubt, but hope to see some familiar faces tomorrow, Jan 25th, at the @scratchlikeagirl showcase at @thenammshow . It’s at 12:30 PM PST at the Technics/Stokyo booth# 11515 - HALL A (Anaheim Convention Center) ✌🏽 Much love to @djshortee for getting everyone together and nurturing this community, much love to @thenammshow , and much love to LA (and wishing safety to everyone in anticipation of the rain) 💙 In this vid: 🥁Beat: C2C and cuts on the @pioneerdjglobal S5

NAMM is around the corner! In the midst of all the excitement of events and people coming in from out of town, I want to first and foremost express my support of our LA community and my gratitude for our firefighters and first responders, as LA nears the end of the second week of devastating wildfires. Things will never be the same here, and as we all slowly to begin to recover, process, and fully understand the ongoing magnitude of what’s happening, I first wanted to post some resources that might be helpful. If you have the means, please consider donating to: @losangelesfiredepartment @calfund @redcrossla @211lacounty @directrelief @lafoodbank @wckitchen @pasadenahumane @huntingtonhospital (specifically, blood donations needed) This is by no means a comprehensive list, so please look to our community leaders/members for additional organizations asking for support, whether it's in the form of monetary donations, items, or time. Note that needs are fluid and can change on a daily basis. There are also a number of local Los Angeles restaurants stepping forward to support, and being a major foodie, I want to give a s/o to some of my favorites: @lasorteds @luv2eat.thaibistro @hengheng_chickenrice @yangskitchenla @yamasushimarketplace @openmarket.la @tamoshanterla @infatuation_la put together a list of restaurants offering support for those impacted by The LA Fires as well. For those coming from out of town and looking to participate in @dinela restaurant week (1/24 – 2/7), they are also partnering with LA tourism to donate $5 per reservation made to The American Red Cross with a match from Banc of California. With all that being said, I hope we can all enjoy So Cal and this year’s @thenammshow . Please come out to watch the @scratchlikeagirl showcase!
