Deckard - My Definition of Chill - Vol. 2

from Deckard Mixography · host Space Cowboys

I've taken roughly 13 months since I first started compiling tracks working away on Volume II of "My Definition of Chill." Like a squirrel storing nuts for the winter I would find some tracks and add them to the project and forget about it for awhile. A couple months go past and I forage a few more. Well, it's ready now. Putting together dance mixes is a relatively straightforward process for me. A chill mix is a different beast entirely. I'm going to be honest and tell you most chill mixes bore the hell out of me. Maybe that's just me not searching out wide and far enough to find music that entertains me. Either way, in putting together this mix, I logged many many hours in compiling, editing, and mixing it together. Along the way I was able to mix in some of my all time favorite songs by favorite artists of mine (Ulrich Schnauss and Underworld) along with some new classics (Phoenix, LCD Soundsystem), some covers (Toto, Walk on the Wild Side) and hidden gems. I hope you, dear listener, enjoy the toils of my labor. - Deckard P.S. Only Part 2 is being featured on the Gough St. Sessions at this time.

DJ Sol Mixography Space Cowboys DJ Sol comes from a background spanning 3 generations of musician's, so the music is definitely in his blood. Growing up in Los Angeles in the late 70s and early 80s, Sol found inspiration in the newly-emerging hip-hop sound of that era (e.g. Kurtis Blow, Grandmaster Flash and Afrika Bambaataa) - a style that became the impetus for a DJ career that now spans three decades. He first started DJing small parties in the late 80s but eventually relocated to San Francisco in the early 90’s to get involved the emerging underground house and breakbeat music scene. At this point he began aggressively pushing his DJ'ing career and by 1998 he was playing at many of the biggest clubs and underground parties in San Francisco.The style of music he spins is an eclectic combination of House, Breaks, Hip-Hop, Mash-up's & NuFunk. He's shared billings with notable DJ’s such as Mark Farina, Miguel Migs, Andy Caldwell, Jeno, Derrick Carter, Stanton Warriors and Plump DJs to name a few. He recently just f Explicit DJ Trav Mixography Space Cowboys Trav has been dancing and DJing since 2003. He's an avid collector of funky house, old-school breakbeats, nu-disco and tasteful crotch-core. He's played San Francisco's biggest venues (ten15 Folsom, Ruby Skye, Mezzanine, Mighty), undergrounds, pool parties, pre-parties, after-parties, birthday parties, massives, and of course parties in the desert riding double-decker, fire-shooting bread trucks. Trav is a member of San Francisco's SEISMIC DJ collective and is a frequent contributor to the Space Cowboys RIPEcast! Explicit Aaron Pope Mixography Space Cowboys Aaron Pope’s philosophy is that “music is all about drawing positive energy out of people,” and that’s what most people remember when they see him play - his infectious, positive energy. A longtime music fan and dance floor resident, Aaron brings this joy and love of music behind the decks with him, and at every gig he is constantly moving and interacting with the crowd. Although he made his start as a house DJ in some of San Francisco’s largest clubs over a decade ago, Aaron’s musical range has continued to expand over the years. He is as likely to be found playing low-slung, dirty breaks at an underground, or bouncy mid-tempo in a lounge setting, as he is to be playing peak-hour, uplifting house on a large system. Most of his sets encompass a wide range of styles and influences as he refuses to be confined to any one, specific genre. In San Francisco, Aaron has played at almost every venue, for a wide range of promoters. He has appeared in New York, Miami and Chicago, as well as Explicit ShOOey Mixography Space Cowboys A collection of live DJ mixes from ShOOey of the Space Cowboys.For more information on ShOOey, check out her Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/djshooey or visit her at http://www.djshooey.com.
