I connected with one of the founders of this Toronto-based newsletter during a recent trip to Detroit and he asked me for 10 vinyl releases I was into. My top 10 of all time? Nope, but stuff I definitely recommend. For more info on this newsletter, hit Chris up here.

On Sunday, July 27th, the Toledo Mud Hens of Ohio celebrated the Latin heritage of their players and fans. My friend JaMay Edwards, who serves as the Manager of Promotions, asked me to put together some music for breaks during the day's game. Thanks for the opportunity JaMay!

: Super Bowl Weekend

I was back in Detroit to do some DJing, namely a couple of corporate events co sponsored by ESPN, Cadillac, Gilette, and Miller Lite.

It was pretty fun as the crowd was just looking to enjoy themselves. I'd almost compare it to a happy hour.
