You think working in your office is unbearable? http://www.ifilm.com/ifilm/product/film_info/0,3699,2446646,00.html

I recommend the Fujifilm Finepix F601 Zoom. I've been using the 4700 Zoom for 2 years and the quality is outstanding (see http://brooklynkid.com for my photography)...

In the spirit of this interactive medium we waste time on all day, I thought I'd be an "iDJ" this week. For those of you checking out Homegrown tomorrow night, I'm asking you what you would like to hear me throw down. Here are a few set choices, and if enough of you reply I'll tally up the answers and that's what you'll hear me spin. Choose one: 1. Prog/Tribal - you know how I do it 2. Old School House - kick ass stuff from 1987-1995 3. Techno - just the hard shizzy 4. Breaks - dark breaks, funky breaks Just trying to have a little fun.....

Thanks for the props you guys! That set was a blast last night. It reminded me of a few years in the early 90's when I had the time of my life. (I'm thinking of clubbing at Limelight and The Palladium on 14th St)... I think, by popular demand, my Tuesday night set might have to be a CLASSIC throwdown. We'll see....

Settle down there, old timer! We wouldn't want you busting your hip now, would we? :laugh:

Listen up all you young shitheads out there! On tonight's show I'm digging deep in my crates for house music from the late 80's and early 90's in an attempt to educate the masses. So if you want to hear what club hits were like while your mom was still wiping your butt, stop by Metro Mix Radio and check my show out, from 6pm-8pm ET. IM me your comments/requests to "bklynmikec". That's http://metromixradio.com ... showcasing the best known & up and coming DJs in the NYC area. Represent!

1. 1989...old school! 2. you don't wanna know...a mismatching pair...one a piece of shit radio shack thing and one a Technics (not a 1200) 3. i started out learning from these dude who used to DJ my school dances when I was like 12 years old. Figured if girls didn't want to dance with me I might as well do something useful:( Mostly everything else I picked up myself... 4. i had already taken drum lessons when i was a kid, but I was a computer geek so electronic music made sense. Then when saw my first 12" single I was blown away (so THIS is where they get LONNNG versions of songs!). I used to listen to and tape the "Saturday Night Dance Party" on HOT 103 here in NY and I worshipped DJ Glenn Friscia. He had the tightest mixing skills. 5. I totally wanted to perform. I was kind of a shy kid and this would be my outlet. I started getting gigs at several Long Island spots in the mid '90s. Unfortunately I made the decision to leave the scene for a few years to persue this "dotcom" career (which ultimately SHIT ON ME). So here I am now, throwing myself back into it with all the kids:D 6. I don't know if I'd quit my day job. Like Z said there is so much B.S. and politics involved, and ass kissing, and liars, and shady people to deal with. I mean, if someone was going to treat me like a DT or a Digweed then shit yeah, sign me up!

most good online stores allow you to listen to the track before you purchase it. I stopped going to NYC record shops because, if you haven't noticed everybody and their sister is a DJ and they all shop at Satellite I like having stuff shipped from overseas or other parts of the country. It's amazing what kind of white labels some of these sites get their hands on...

1. not as much as some...only a few Gs...esp since I no longer do mobile DJing. 2 TT's, mixer, tons of PC software...it goes a long way these days! 2. used to spend $300 - $400 a month during my more employed days 3. I'd say 30-40 a month 4. probably about 3 hours a week thanks to some good web sites and a fast connection 5. sounds strange, but I've never pre-built a set in all the 13 years I've been spinning. Not for an hour set or a 7 hour set...a lot of people ask me why I carry so many records...well that's why. I like to bring everything I might want to play. I really only practice for a little while when I get some new vinyl. After so many years of beat matching it kind of comes natural... 6. other expenses? if you count the numerous non-paying gigs, and the fact that you're basically flushing your money down the toilet on records....no, no other expenses but who would have it any other way?

yo dude..check your PMs

thanks!

well since we know i'm not god's gift to anything...I guess that answers the question

joeg meetup (12:56:51 PM): i'm a massive tool, now please smack me like the bitch that I am

That's right...my newest CD entitled "Dark Breaks 101" (joe g has already informed me he hates the name) is available for free MP3 download at http://mikec.nu Please go get it and then let me know what you think! Dark and progressive breaks...they're a good thing.

Great...19 of these apply to me.
