Fuck yeah

He's just done the RA podcast.

hat have you been working on recently?

A CD set for the Unity Kolabo 005 Part 1-5, an EP with myself and DJ Qu also on Underground Quality, launching an mp3 store on the Underground Quality website and a remix project for a mystery lady out of Russia. I've also just got the UQ CD manufacturing plant off the ground in an endeavour to make CDs a lot cheaper for my supporters. Taking care of my family, running my landscaping business, playing gigs around Europe & the US. I continue to do the Underground Quality radio show, every Wednesday from midnight UK time on MyHouse YourHouse.

How's the landscaping business going?

Not good because of the high gas prices and economy�no one has any money.

Have you reached the point where you're just doing estimates yet?

Ha! No, not yet...

Where and how was the mix recorded?

The mix was recorded in my home studio in Bridgeport, Connecticut at 3 AM whilst the kids were sleeping. The mix incorporates vinyl and CDs with a Pioneer DJM 500 mixer, 2 x Technics 1200's and 2 x Pioneer CD-J's 200, recorded to a Tascam standalone.

Can you tell us a little about the mix?

This is just one variation of the style of house music I play, which is different from me playing live, as I don't think that one can fully encapsulate what one is all about on a CD mix. This shit has got be live! I need people in front of me. I feed off that energy, man!

When you started DJing again, you said that you only had seven records. How many do you have now?

I got 9............ x 1000. Hahahaha!

How do you feel about your son becoming the youngest person to put a house track out? (Ed's son Destin had a track on a UQ compilation that he made when he was 2 � years old)

Ah, it's just a father thing. I'm happy but I don't go around bragging. He is gifted so I felt I would put it out. Who knows? Maybe it will get licensed to a big movie soundtrack...
Then he can pay for his own education!

Is the house scene in Connecticut going strong?

In little spots here and there. Parties are going on and they have a good following. There's Family Sessions in Norwalk CT, Flipside in Hartford CT and Party Like A Rock Star. Brian Carter & John Hunter do a few underground parties as well.

What are you up to next?

There will be an Underground Quality night at Tape Club in Berlin on the 5th of December with Dj Qu & Fred P, and I'll be in London on the 13th of December at S�d Electronic's Yuletide Knees Up.

listnin to this house moujik now

Posted by chesco on Nov-03-2008 22:37:

Listened to it the whole way thru - don't usually do that with many mixes.. I'd give it a 'nice' out of 10..

certainly isn't anything mindblowing but some lovely house music to try and get me over the monday depression.

Exactly. Great track selection, nice warm bass. Some tracks were too lounged/soft for me but some were also dark and big, I really enjoyed those. 7 out of 10 overall. Mixing was acceptable
