I accepted a DJ gig with a local rapper because her last DJ was unavailable. So, we started to inform friends and figure out a rehearsal schedule. But a week later, she informs me that she talked her previous DJ and they agreed to do the gig together instead.
Okay, since I have no contract involved, I was not bound to do the gig. So, I withdrew.
But, in a few days, she has returned and requested me for her gig again because the previous DJ was not working out. I accepted but, I wonder. Should I draft a binding contract for her to sign? She released me once and I don’t fully trust her to not do it again.
So, I drafted a contract with a deposit to make it official. I was cautious not to fall into the same situation this time.
We had an excellent show and I have been the rapper’s DJ for all her show including the latest one in June 2019. But, I still draft a contract and send it to her to sign. So, she has proof and so do I.
I like Christmas but I notice that they play the same songs all the time. These songs have become a commerical money grab for the artist or music label. Singers just sing a list of well known songs and put out a christmas album. Simple. But what about the songwriters that want to make a new song, where do they go? Ah, the misfits that create a new song for the masses that only a few know about because radio does not play them. So, I created a mix that features a few of unnoticed songs from the Christmas Misfits.
So, I was given a challenge that led to a unique journey. My girlfriend’s friend is a judge in Weed expo. He was bewilder on how much reggae was played at the expo. So, could I find weed songs to keep the vibe without the Reggae aftertaste. I believe so. Check out my company: A Serious Production for other mixes and DJ or Podcast service needs
I created a Halloween Mix to honor the holiday. Even though, I did not buy or make a costume, buy any candy, decorate my apartment, and go to a party. Bummer.

Let’s have sushi
She shouts with excitement
My mind ponders the notion
Okay, let’s do it
Curiously, she asked;
What do you like?
I am not sure
I don’t eat a lot of it.
Well, let’s try some
Okay. Poof!
dishes appear
Dragon, & Tiger
Each roll decked with
vegetables, rice, meat, peppers, & fruit
rolled up with a seaweed wrap
Eat one, pass; eat one, pass.
design with color and flavor
An artisan masterpieces
We raise our chopsticks
Kanpai
Our Selections; strategic
Power plays; epic
Chess pieces for dinner
A pacific rim commotion
Rook takes queen
send them passed the lips
Storm my mouth castle
Godzilla of flavors rain down on my tastes buds people
Destroy my palette dynasty
Fight my tongue shogun
Drum of tears and sweats
Pour from my pores
My face: a kabuki mask
The demon, shogun, clown, crying baby.
My anime eye envision Geisha
With Wasabi swords slice my senses swiftly
Touch, taste, sight, sound, smell
Separate sequentially.
Kanryo
We set our chopsticks down
She look at me and smile
Says something in Japanese
Grabs my hand and we sprint into the night.
silhouetted shadows surface swiftly
We wisp between stopped cars.
Damn you, gaijin
Gaijin? Shit.
I’m a ninja.
Into the alley, ascending steps.
We stand on Mount Fuji
Apartments
Her presence opens the door
And a fog of Smoke greets us
She giggles and disappears into the fog
I follow.
Dazed and confused
judo thrown onto a bed.
I lay down bewildered
Until the smoke clear
She appears
Naked
in front of the bed
With Wasabi and sake
She said,
Sushi?
Translated by me:
Lying on his side, with an uncomfortable elbow resting between the cement and his head, he lies on his back asleep. Knees bent, feet against his behind, huge belly to the sky, mouth opened, nose flat.
This is the work of 2 or 3 bottles.
If he were marble, he would he would be displayed in museums in Rome, London and Paris as an example of Hellenistic art. Plus, the flies wouldn’t bother him.
