I drive by the lake every morning on my way to work. Sometimes the fog looming over it reminds me of the dementors at Hogwarts. (Chrome recognizes Hogwarts as a word, but not dementors 😂) I love fog though, it reminds me of my childhood growing up in England.
Currently loving …
😍😍😍
Ugh, Mondays are the worst.
Trying to brighten it up a bit with this Hybrid Minds mix. 😎

My friend Brandon just reminded me of this record. It’s amazing that I managed to forget about it, considering the amount of times I played it in my set that year. I didn’t have a lot of records around that time, and I was also full on obsessed with Monica, so in my eyes it was win/win. I don’t know how much of a win it was for the people who had to hear me playing the same 20 or so records over and over though. 😁 Thanks for the dope memory Brandon!

All the snow had melted, it was like 40° and awesome. (You’ve definitely lived in the midwest too long when you get excited about 40° in the winter 😁)
Then it snowed yesterday and we got like 4 inches that I had to shovel, because I couldn’t figure out how to get the snowblower to work. smh
Today was better. I decided that I would figure out how that contraption worked no matter what! #determination (It was easy, I’m just impatient and didn’t do xyz yesterday, coulda saved myself a lot of back pain!)
Success! And Macca kept me company while I froze my ass off.

I saw a re-post of that time Obama sang Al Green’s “Let’s Stay Together” on Tumblr today.
Tears.
Happy New Year! … yeah it’s 12 days late. I was so sick over the holiday and spent six days being bloody miserable. Now all of a sudden it’s January 12. smh
Listening to some tunes and lesson planning.
I was so happy to see this Dj Flight mix when it got uploaded. I meant to post it earlier but as I said, I was too busy overdosing on cold medicine. I’m def keeping it in rotation for the moment. 😍
Happy Christmas to you and yours! 🎄🎄🎄
I’m headed out to California today. Gonna spend the holiday with my fam over there.
xoxo

I used to have so many rave mixtapes. I gave most of them to my friend to add to his amazing Rave Archive website, but I still have about 20 of my own personal mixes that I have been meaning to convert to mp3, and just never got around to it.
I came across them again when I was cleaning out some boxes, and have been having a field day just listening to them while cleaning, lesson planning, avoiding going outside in 5° weather, etc. So many good memories and so many good tracks.
I expected the sound quality to be super shitty but I guess they kept well and they still sound surprisingly decent. I also expected the mixing from Code Blue circa late 90’s to be cringe-worthy, but they weren’t half bad… even if I do say so myself. 😝
Here are some oldies that I heard that I’m definitely digging out when I go have a mix session after I finish writing this post. 😻
DnB & Kiki
