Everybody's a DJ - 3.5.10

Hey guys and thanks for coming back for another week of Everybody's a DJ. This week's show saw a one-on-one with my roommate Hector Steve Valdez. He definitely had some different music than we have been hearing the last couple weeks but it's nice to change it up. Most of this music I had heard around the house but it was nice to go in depth with Hector about his experiences with the music. Thanks for listening and enjoy the show!

Everybody's a DJ - 2.26.10

Hey guys, sorry it took so long to put up this weeks episode of the show. We had some technical difficulties in the post-production stages but obviously that is all cleared up. This week we had Alexander Ackel join us by phone from my home town of Fountain Valley. He played us some classic hip hop in his set. We were also joined by Mariano, a host on another show here at KSFS and he played us some eclectic music that I had never heard before. I'm sure we have something for everyone on today's show so give us a listen and we will see you next week!

Everybody's a DJ - 2/18/10

This week we had a special show because of the furlough on Friday the 19th. I went into the studio with today's guest DJ Jon Esparza and tried to get some free air time and we happened upon 45 minutes of space. So we decided to do it guerrilla style and fit the show into the 45 minute time frame. About half an hour into it we had our second guest come in a play a couple songs for the last fifteen minutes. As always here is the tracklist. Happy Listening.

Repost: Adam, Sean & Megan

2009-04-29T01:34:00.001-07:00

So Blogger.com decided to delete this post and someone took down the "Adam, Sean & Meghan" show from 4shared.com claiming it had rights infringements. Any-who this was the original post that I posted Sunday April 26, 2009:So literally a room full of famous people as meghan said and if that's not enticing the tracklisting should be. The opening track is a group out of Mali which sets the tone for the shows eclectic artists from Japan, Sweden and even Brazil. Check out SomaFM and Amoeba Music which Meghan and Sean work for online music content that's actually good. As always a link to download is below
