Introducing… Duck Sauce!
Ok so I imagine most of the people who visit my blog have heard of Duck Sauce in some way, shape or form but I never made an official announcement. Duck Sauce is me and Armand Van Helden. It’s our project together, just making house tracks and hollering at ducks. We made a 4 track EP which is slated for a September release, but we’re actually putting the 2 main tracks “aNYway” and “You’re Nasty” on Beatport tomorrow as an advance release for DJs. The support from DJs has already been overwhelming, I can’t wait to see how this one grows!
Here’s our first ever interview:

As posted on the fab Fader blog.
Last week I came back from a weekend of shows with a cold and a busted computer and hard drive, determined to get things straightened out. So I went to this Apple service center here in Paris (they don’t have official Apple stores) and they told me it would take 10 to 15 days to swap my motherboard. I thought “I’ll show YOU a motherboard” (I don’t know what that means) and I said “non merci.” For a minute I even considered going to London to get it fixed. Thank goodness I know a few people at Apple in the US and they got me in the right hands in Paris. That simplified things quite a bit.
Four Fast-Paced Days of A-Traking
On Friday, Saturday and Sunday I did 5 shows in 3 cities. You know what that means? A new blog for you, that’s what. I’m gonna throw Thursday in the mix too because I did some pretty neat stuff. So strap on your blog seatbelt and get ready for the ride.
Thursday I was invited to the Nike ID studio in NY to design some custom kicks and they filmed the whole thing with some interviews to tie it back into the Running Man campaign. Since I don’t know how to design I brought along Dust La Rock and Kesh for some help. When we arrived they had a whole team waiting for us. Nike staff supervising, interviewers, camera crew, people to help us design, etc. I felt pampered.
WMC According to Trizzy
The Fool’s Gold posse flew to Miami last Wednesday for some festivities of the Winter Music variety. When we arrived in fabulous South Beach we were famished so we linked up with our buddies Boys Noize, Steve Aoki, MSTRKRFT and LA Riots who were all about to grab dinner. What we didn’t know was that the MSTR boys had made reservations at the fanciest, strangest, most blog-worthy restaurant in the 305. From the outside this place Prime 112 looked more like a club than anything else. When our turn finally came we realized that from the inside it was actually closer to a hotel in the sense that every party got their own private room with not only a dining table but a TV, a couch, a bed, a bathroom… They served plates that were big enough to be shared by 5-7 people. We ordered the mother of all surf & turfs. The lobster was 4.5 pounds. My girlfriend’s dog is about that size.
Is it June already??
OK I admit it. I messed up. I waited too long since the last update and now I have to rack my brain, look through my calendar and my iPhoto and figure out what the hell I’ve been up to for the past 2 months. Ah well, here goes… This one’s for you, Internet.
I think the last time I BLOGGED was right before Coachella. (I no longer run away from the word blog. See? I just blogged the word blog.) By a bizarre twist of booking fate I was actually absent on the first day of the festival when my better half was giving her big performance. Truth is, I accepted this show with Stretch that paid a heck of a lot of moola. So while Kid Sister was rocking on the same stage that friggin’ Bjork was gonna perform on, I was out in Memphis playing a corporate gig and being intensely existential.
