DJ Moody

Tomorrow in the Tulsa area I’ll be providing the tunes for some dope events around town.  From 1-4 I’ll be out at the Owasso Skatepark for a skate contest powered by my friends at the Quickie Mart – dope shop, good peoples.  This contest is a bit of a big deal, with no charge for registration, and they always come through with the giveaways and such.  I’ll be doing my usual mix of punk, rock, and hip hop for ya.

At 9 pm I’ll be joining my buddy DJ Ziploc for a 4 turntable set at the new Guthrie Green for an all DJ event called Spring Fling.  We’ll be doing an hour.  Many more of my local DJ buddies will be in the mix as well so make sure to check that out.  This is an outdoor, no cover event and should be VERY cool.

Lastly join me down at my residency Evolution Dance Party with my boys Just Jon and Speedbump at Enso.  Gonna be a good one!

Stoked to announce a new show with my partner Dave Teegarden.  Once in awhile we perform as Equalizer with myself on turntables and him on the drums.  Last show was in October so it’s definitely due time.  We will be sharing the stage Saturday night at The Max Retropub.  Shout out to my man Jake on the flyer design.  He’s created some very ill images for me over the years so I suggest you check him out for your next flyer, etc… here.  Also, all May dates are updated on the calendar so check that out here.  A few new places going down so make sure to check that out!

Been a few years since I’ve made the journey to Stillwater to play at Eskimo Joe’s.  Friday night I’ll be back in the Joe dome..looking forward to being back!  Saturday I’ll be playing some before and after the Oklahoma State Spring football game outside of Joe’s.  Shout out to Red Bull and Tim from Joe’s for hooking it up.  If you’re in the Stillwater area I’ll see you this weekend!

I’ll be in the MIX tonight at the historic Cain’s Ballroom from 7-11.  Looking forward to this event!  Details below via Philbrook.org:

MIX Returns April 6th

Tulsa Gets Ready to MIX It Up at Cain’s Ballroom in Anticipation of Philbrook Downtown

March 6, 2013 (Tulsa, Okla.) Philbrook Young Masters Society invites Tulsa to relish in music, mixology, and live art installations at the second MIX event, which benefits the Museum. On Saturday, April 6, 2013, 7-11 p.m., nearly 20 of the hottest bartenders from across Tulsa will compete to be named the best “MIX-ologist” while DJ Moody pumps music throughout the historic Cain’s ballroom.

This year, guests will sample a variety of libations from Aaron Post of Valkyrie, Noah Bush of Hodges Bend, Liz Taylor-Pounds of Lucky’s, Tony Collins of McNellie’s, and Ryan Stack of Juniper, to name a few. Guests will vote for their favorite drink of the evening from the nearly 20 serving.  The winning bartender will walk away with a grand prize of $500.

Advance tickets, which cost $75 for Philbrook Members and $100 for not-yet Members, can be purchased at philbrook.org/MIX. No tickets will be available at the door on the night of the event. Patron and sponsor packages starting at $500 are also available. Proceeds benefit Philbrook educational programming and Museum operations.

Created in 2012 by the Philbrook Young Masters Society, a group of donors under the age 45, MIX draws attention and energy to Philbrook Downtown, a new satellite space scheduled to open on June 14, 2013. Event co-chairs Blake Loveless and Nancy Van Doren expect a crowd. “MIX created such a buzz in 2012 they reached capacity and turned people away,” reflected Loveless. “So, we moved this year’s event to Cain’s Ballroom near Philbrook Downtown to handle a larger crowd for this one-of-a-kind night.”

The 2013 MIX event committee includes: Co-Chairs, Nancy Van Doren and Blake Loveless; Jack and Holly Allen; Chris Amburgy; Joe Breaux; Jennifer Donnelly, Lauren Graber; Bonnie Hackler; Krista Herman, Julia Herron, Jillian and Will Ihloff; Jean Milwee; Laura Nelson; Joe Olujic; Susan Peterson; Bruce and Shea Roach; Jill and Adam Strange; Torre Waldo; Courtney Wilson; Megan Wright; Neely Wynn; and Megan Zetik.

ABOUT PHILBROOK

New episode from one of my favorite web series.  This is an extended one dedicated to the late Jay Dee aka J Dilla.  Some pretty ill stories, and definitely worth a view for any fan of his music.  The music industry isn’t the same without this man.

Been a hot minute since I did a kicks of the week but these definitely caught my eye.  These are a collaboration show between Supreme x Comme des Garcons x Vans coming in early June.  2 models of the Vans Half Cab and Vans Era are done in a new digi camo/polka dotted look that defines the collection. More photos of the collection below and believe I’ll have my eye out for these.

As you may or may not know I’ve been involved with the Nude Art Shows since the debut in 2005 at a place called Mike’s College Bar in Stillwater, OK.  This Saturday night I’ll be back on the decks alongside some incredible artists, performers, and djs.  Don’t miss this once a year event!

This mix is a collaboration with the Clean Hands store out of Tulsa, OK. Located at 1315 E. 6th St., CH offers a variety of original and vintage apparel, artwork, graff supplies, records, and much more.

I began this mix with the mindstate that i wanted to showcase some new non-radio rap that some may not be familiar with. When I first started DJing in the late 90′s, my focus was strictly on golden era and indie rap records, so this is coming full circle so to speak. Nothing too fancy on the mix, I wanted the records to shine. Two 30 minute sides are split up old school mixtape style. The mix is also available on cassette and cd at the store. Enjoy and feel free to share!  Link below for download or stream.
