//Paisley Mixes..

//A while back one of the homies asked me if I knew of any good Prince mixes, or if I had done one for that matter. Live sets yes, but much as I love Prince, I never went in the lab to do something. Intimidating, to say the least. Fortunately for all of us, three seriously dope djs have attempted and succeeded. These mixes explore the deep catalog of a musical genius and living legend, and like a great dj should do, introduce you to lesser-known tracks and versions. DJ Jaycee - The Lake Minnetonka Suite, Vol.1 (2008)
Joints from '78-'86 era Prince, The Time, The Family, et.al. The interview snippets are incredible as well...and if you don't follow The Afternoon Delight, Jaycee's drivetime mixshow on Atlanta's V-103 you might not know what radio should really sound like.. DJ Dredd - Prince "Genius" Mixtape (2010)
Can't say enough good things about this dude Dredd, but I will say he has held down the successful "Prince vs." party in D.C. for 10 years. This mix visits Prince sounds from '78-'90. Check his Soundcloud also for "Prince vs. Neptunes," "Prince vs. Andre 3000," and "Prince vs. Madonna vs. MJ" mixes...he's got one of the deepest Prince collections I've heard. dj MOma - SEXLOVELY (2011)
I know, I just posted this last week for Valentine's Day, but any mix that starts with "When 2 R N Love" deserves another spin!

//GOLDEN welcomes Dion Decibels..

//There's a GOLDEN lining to everything...even in this wet weather. Tonite we welcome the homie Dion Decibels. Been doing his thing for a while in the Bay, he is a selector, mixer and scratcher par excellence. //Dion has a catalog of mixtapes that are diverse and creative...his mix Fazed: A Tribute to Riding High actually inspired me to do my own sample-based mix Folks get brown in the sunshine! //In addition to spinning around the Bay, he also has been the deejay for ThinkBeat Radio since 2003, which you can catch every Friday night/Saturday morn 2-4am on 94.1 KPFA and Tuesday 6-7pm on All Day Play.

//Last but not least, Dion also rocks as the turntablist for The GetBack, an artistic collective and band from The Town that has held down many a vocalist at Monday Soul and other great venues, and is blowing it up with their series Get:LiveSessions. Check their latest session with DoD.A.T. on the mic:
