Sunday, 7/17 -> Special guest Xperiment + Brittney the Square’s Birthday Party at Connected w/DJ Low Key…

July 11, 2011 / / No comments

SUNDAY, 7/17 -> We’ll be celebrating double on July 17th, once for my amazing intern Brittney the Square’s birthday party and once for 2010 Big Tune National Finalist/Humble Beast Records signee Xperiment’s return to Colorado.  Xperiment is back for a quick visit from Portland and will be performing a special set of original music that’s one of a kind.  If you’re not familiar with his work, check out Xperiment’s latest music on his soundcloud page and download his ridiculous Precipitation project for free at HumbleBeast.com. Last but not least, make sure you grab a drink for Brittney, if you’ve been to any event I’ve been involved in over the past year or two (from the Foreign Exchange show to the Solution to our Dilla Tribute w/Slum Village to Connected), she probably helped make it happen.

June 19, 2011 / / No comments

FRIDAY, 6/24 -> It’s that time of year again.  I’m another year older and I’ll be celebrating my birthday with the likes of Donwill, Charley Cox & MC Big House, some other cool motherfuckers born in June.  Me, DJ Soup & Lazy Eyez will be manning the turntables, while the one and only Von Pea will be holding down the hosting duties. Also, if you’ve been to a Lessondary Birthday Extravaganza before then you already know there will be a surprise performance or two, most likely by someone super dope.  Anyways, enough of the sale pitch, you’re either gonna fuck with us on 6/24 or not.  We’ll be celebrating at the Hai Bar at Sushi Hai (32nd & Lowell aka the home of my Sunday night weekly, Connected), the party is 21+, free to get into and starts at 8.  Hope to see you there!!!

Mick Boogie calls De La Extras #2 “a definitive Sunday afternoon hip hop listen…perfect ish”…Download it below if you haven’t already…

May 24, 2011 / / No comments

Yesterday when I hopped on twitter I caught some great feedback from the homie Mick Boogie on my De La Extras #2 mixtape.  Seeing as how he’s kind of like a big deal (word to Jigga, Kanye, Nike, Lebron, etc), I figured I’d share his words and give everybody who slept on the tape another chance to check it out.  With that said, Mick called De La Extras #2 “a definitive Sunday afternoon hip hop listen…perfect ish” and coming from a man who collaborated with the legendary Jazzy Jeff for the acclaimed Summertime mixtape last year, that’s one of the best compliments I’ve gotten in a minute.  Anyway, I’m gonna shut up about myself and give y’all the link, a little backstory on the tape and the tracklist below; enjoy:

.:M11X & Illroots.com present DJ Low Key – De La Extras #2 (untracked/podcast version):.

My boy Mikal Hameed aka M11X hit me up a while back to put together a mix for his contribution (pictured on the cd cover above & flyer below) to the now-in-limbo De La Soul – 3 Feet High & Rising Art Tour.  Mikal does “sound sculptures”, pieces of art that can play music from either ipods or turntables and needed something to play on his De La Soul chair.  De La is my favorite group ever, so I was happy to put together a mix of rarities, remixes, guest spots, bootlegs & b-sides that’d please the craziest of De La fanatics for him. Anyways, the De La art tour is still up in the air, but we decided to drop the tape with our homies from Illroots.com on New Year’s Eve 2009 as one last tribute to De La Soul as they closed out their 20th year in the rap.

1. DJ Low Key “De La Extras #2 Intro”
2. Teenage Fanclub & De La Soul “Fallin (Remix)”

4. Joel Turner feat Dave “You”
5. Big Pooh feat. Posdnuos “People (Remix)”
6. Eslam Jawaad feat. De La Soul “Rewind DJ”
7. Malcolm McLaren feat. De La Soul “Hey DJ”
8. De La Soul feat. Sean Paul “Shoomp”
9. De La Soul & Camp Lo “So Good”
10. De La Soul feat. Jazzy Jeff “Hold Tight” aka “Cobb Creek (Demo)”
11. De La Soul “Breakadawn (De La Soul Remix)”
12. Oh No feat. Posdnuos “Smile A Lil Bit”
13. J-Live feat. Posdnuos & Oddisee “The Upgrade”
14. DJ Jazzy Jeff feat. Posdnuos “Let Me Hear U Clap”

21. Queen Latifah feat. De La Soul “Mama Gave Birth To The Soul Children”

23. George Clinton feat. De La Soul “Do Fries Go With That Shake”

Please take a quick minute & vote DJ Low Key in the 2011 Westword Music Showcase…

May 20, 2011 / / No comments

What’s up world?  I wanted to check in and see if you’d do me the quick favor of heading over to Westword.com and voting for me for best hip hop DJ in the Westword Music Showcase.  Voting is easy and painless and since I’m up against such Colorado DJ heavyweights as defending DMC NYC champion DJ Cysko Rokwel, Moolah Boy K-Tone, Solution co-founder Sounds Supreme and world renowned turntablist DJ Vajra, I’m gonna need your help to follow up my win in 2010 (Thanks again Denver, I also won in 2008 and I think a win this year would make me the first three time winner; please help me make history).  I have a ton of respect for all four of the other competitors and they’re all friends of mine, but you can’t vote for everybody so you might as well vote DJ Low Key (category 39).

And most importantly, thanks for the support in the contest and my DJ career, whether or not I win. I couldn’t do what I do for a living without the support of fine people like yourself and I know, appreciate and relish that.

P.S. If I win, I’ll make a mixtape for y’all or throw a party or both or something else that’s even better, trust.
