Audiobook
Music always tells a story, but this mix tells a story more so than any of my others. It draws upon themes of love, worship, solidarity, and crime. The story presented to you takes place in the early to mid 20th century and weaves in sounds of crackling vinyl, blues, gospel, and 20’s lounge…
For Someone
This is one of my favorite mixes that presents a sound highly influenced by U.S. based genres such as jazz, instrumental hip hop, blues and electronica. A flare for the historical and the sounds of vinyl weave throughout the mix. This is dedicated to tish lopez.
A Slight Case of Melancholy
A thematic mix inspired by works that represent the achingly beautiful yet withdrawn indifferent moments in our lives. The music attempts to capture the image of a lone person walking through a rain drenched cityscape or the feeling of watching the world pass us by. Mainly jazz influenced trip hop with interspersed moments of piano…
Sea Swallow Me

Heden St. Lounge

Old Time Jukebox

Caberet Le Coeur
This mix is a sexy, classy, downtempo mix for quieter and relaxed moods. Musical influences range from Tango, 20′s lounge, jazz, and classic blues. I always listen to this when i’m looking for a sophisticated mix.
City Soleil
This dj mix integrates Tango, Flamenco, Jazz, Brazilian Lounge, string instruments, and 50′s Soundtracks with electronic downtempo beats. Excellent focus on instrumentation makes this mix especially unique.
Rough Draft
This thematic dj mix is a retrospective of the United State’s rich musical and cultural history set to hip hop beats. Not a dj mix per se, but more of a selection of tracks highlighting music from the early 20’s to 60’s jazz. This set foregrounds vintage soundtracks, radio shows, and sampling to bring…
