Chromeo cover the Eagles for upcoming DJ Kicks
I got a brother and his name is Gizmo Chromeo.
Soooo Chromeo did the next DJ Kicks compilation and here’s the kicker (pun intended): they covered The Eagles classic “I Can’t Tell You Why”. You gotta hear this.

Top 3 “Hamburger” sound bites
In honor of the 10,000LB Hamburger Tour here are my top 3 favorite “hamburger” sound bites.
#1: Wimpy from Popeye
The best Wimpy hamburger quote is here but some evildoers made it non-embeddable. Do yourself a favor and click over still, it’s the funniest thing in the world and becomes even funnier when recited by Nick Catchdubs. This whole episode is about burgers too:
#2: Steve Martin’s French lesson in the Pink Panther
#3: Alonzo “Hamburger” Jones
Special thanks to my twitter council.
Kid Cudi “Make Her Say” video
Scratches by meeeeeeeee, keep scratching alive!
Gotta love that shot of the DJ Hero controller with a hand model. Get that placement money, dudes.
First official clip of the 10,000LB light show!

More clips coming!
Tutorial on NI Massive: wobble basslines
Last Wednesday I went to the Native Instruments office in LA for a tutorial on Maschine. While I was there I asked them to explain to me the true science behind Massive, a plug-in that I’ve used a bunch but never quite understood! I got the mathematics, and then my instructor told me that he made this hugely popular youtube clip explaining how to make wobble basslines. Sure enough here it is with 162K views. Watch and learn, kids! Wawawawooowawawooomp.
Meet our bus driver Art!
Art is our bus driver on the 10,000LB Hamburger Tour. Art lives in Memphis. He’s usually pretty quiet but always friendly. Theophilus and I decided to interview him.
Nike Terminator Hi Supreme Quickstrikes – Swagger edition
The Swagger team gave me these when I did the photo shoot for them. I figured they were probably pretty exclooosive. And yes you get 1 shoe in each color like this.
DJ Spinbad’s 90s Megamix
This came out a little while back but I never blogged it so here it is! You know when Spinbad makes a mix it’s serious. His 80′s Megamixes are all-time classics, and he definitely doesn’t disappoint with the 90′s edition, right on time.
Duck Sauce is now on Beatport
Advance release for DJs: Duck Sauce “aNYway” b/w “You’re Nasty”
Available here only. Official release coming in September.
Quack.
Mustard is hard at work
Have you met my horse Mustard? I picked him in Miami and he’s joining us on the 10,000LB Hamburger Tour. Here he is on the tour bus, hard at work making spreadsheets next to Theophilus.
