A castle in Germany? DAH!

Today I got some mixed news and I think (without getting too personal about the whole deal… it is business after all) that the best way to deal with challenges is to use some creative energy to recharge myself and to just simply tear into some DJ mixing. With that– I have recorded “digitalflood Pirate Radio Vol. 5 Ep. 4” in raw mix session format. It’s the only way I know to deal with challenges in life (to create). A few glasses of Bacardi Rum Select and a few hours later– I believe I have recorded the best mix tape ever. Angst breeds artistry. Artistry leads to creation. And now you the viewer can prosper from my angst. This Sunday (12/13/09) I promise you the best mix tape session ever. It is heavy on a certain genre. It is a tribute to a certain club in Newark, NJ (the select few of you have caught on already) and it is possibly the most incredible mix ever. On 12/13/09 the new digitalflood Pirate Radio drops. It is unreal. I promise you this much. I’m listening to the raw mix right now– prepare to be blown away.

Digitalflood Pirate Radio

If you’re staring at this on our web site (df.com) and not from one of the many places we aggregate updates to (such as Facebook, Twitter, etc…) you can already see I’ve redone the site branding to be more “Pirate Radio” in nature. SURPRISE! If you haven’t checked out the new site, be sure to click through and see what we’ve done. You’ll notice all the pirate goodness (depsite M’Weezy’s assertions that ninjas can be beat pirates– we all know that pirates rule). I’ve been hard at work with this new df.com rebranding and it’s one of the many surprises to come over the next few weeks. We’re right now on df.com version 11.1.2 (final). I’m hoping you enjoy the new look. As always, let me know what you think.

On to the big news, DF Pirate Radio will be recording over the next few weeks and I’m looking to drop the first episode to you by Thanksgiving weekend on 11/28/09. While my arm is still pretty sore and mostly unusable, I’ve figured out ways to work around my limitations. I should be able to mix the show without a hitch. If not, it looks like some lucky cast member will be getting a crash course in DJ mixing (should be a blast). Watch for a live countdown timer to appear on the site in the next 24 hours that will countdown to go day, which is 11/28/09!

Hoist the line! Tie down the yard arm! Weigh anchor! Set sail, no quarter! ARRRRRR.
