here is some BIM MARKS for you:

Who is Bim Marx? That would be my friend from NYC Duane Harriot
and our own Professor Genius- forming a super hero team of
production sure to be huge in the not so distant future.
You may know Duane as being one third of the now on hiatus
Negroclash crew (along with Dj Lindsay and Prince Language). They
used to throw a killer party at APT back in the day... And of course
you know Jorge (aka Professor Genius released one of the first
IDIB 12"s!) anyway, here is an edit they have given us exclusively.
its killer, so be warned.

Duane also did a KILLER mix for us that you can download:

ltd Bim Marx releases

(maybe we can talk the Professor into a mix sometime soon??)

Mike djing on Diesel Radio

In an attempt to keep content on this blog
because i am going to be away most of the
summer on the road- here is something for you.
I djed on Diesel U radio when i was out in London
last weekend. Towards the end of the radio show
the cd player craps out thus rendering the exclusive
IDIB track unplayable... SO keep that in mind. It
was fun nonetheless. you may recognize one
Rory Philips of Durrrr fame make a guest
appearance as well. as for the mix itself--
blame it on a-a-a-a-a-alcohol...
also check this mix for some cool soon to be
released italians tracks as well as some
goofy Mike edits...

A New Bottin mix

here is a message from Bottin:

It's been a while since I posted a mixtape, so last sunday
after returning from Paris I immediately started selecting
tracks. I've been playing fast disco lately so I had to
compensate with this rather adventurous mid-tempo mix
of laid back songs from 100 to 110 bpm with basically no
genre rules: set your time machine to a random range
between 1978 and 1990 and you'll get stuff going from
disco-funk to proto-balearic, from italo-boogie to very
old school rap.

The track list has been made somewhat obscure: all that
is left of artist names and track titles are the initials and
whoever guesses the tracks will be awarded with a 12"
vynil or cd that I will gladly ship to any address on planet
earth at my expense. You don't even have to guess them
all: the 2 brave contestants that will get the most will win.
If you have your own blog and would like to post the mix
there you are very welcome to do so. Just make sure that
answers are posted as a comment to this blog or sent to
me in a private message.

Ready?

Jonny!
