Anthem was a weekly party thrown by my friends at LiquidMercury back in 2001. I mixed this upbeat breaks set for one of their Anthem events. Ten years later, this mix really captures the energy and spirit of the rapidly growing West coast breaks scene at that time. I hope you enjoy this mix from the archives - Anthem.
Thanks Ryan & the LiquidMercury crew

Inside each and every one of us, there is a light that glows. In some of us, it’s released by the whomping thump of a kick drum. In others, it explodes from the roaring energy of a lead guitar. Sometimes it flares intensely from huge strings. Never let that light fizzle out. This mix is for Sophy, who saw the light in me.

Sometimes mixes are easy. This one wasn’t. For some time now, I’ve had the idea of bookending a mix with two versions of the same song. So when I found a track called Flashback, that name seemed very appropriate for such a mix. After much struggling with lack of songs, difficult track arrangement, and complex transitions, I’m done. I hope at the very least it will be entertaining :)

In balmy Hawaii, where the land meets the sea at Kakaako Park, you might stumble upon the rumble of club tunes, the smell of a hibachi, and the positive energies of a small group of music lovers. Whenever I had the pleasure of spinning at these gatherings overlooking the Pacific, these are the kinds of trance tunes I would bring to soothe the sun into the ocean.

]]>I’m really interested to see how CNN’s The Moment project will generate. “The Moment” will use a technology called PhotoSynth to generate a virtual 3D ‘photo’ of the venue of Barack Obama’s inauguration as President, generated from the photos that people take there that day. It’s a cool technology, and I hope lots of people send in their photos so it will be rich with content. Check out PhotoSynth here (Windows only unfortunately)
