Genius Minded Music requested us to be a friend on myspace (or did we request them? …whatever you get the idea) a while back and we were intrigued by their music and decided to “dig” a little deeper and see what Genius Minded Music was all about. So we had the chance to ask them a few questions; they also included a FREE x DOWNLOADABLE track along with the interview. So check out the interview and check out the FREE track…enjoy!

Alright, right now at the moment we have some water boiling and we’re about damn near ready to start cooking. We’re doing some “major” moves and hope that we can make some things happen. Until then, you only get this little snippet of information, but trust me; once everything is settled. We’ll come back and break the news to everyone….until then, peace!

(and yeah this is a conversation via AIM; I blacked out the person’s name until we can make it official. If you wanna hit me up via AIM; I’m at fierce rival)



Dj Love x Ten x Zubar x Birthday weekend
August 29, 2008, 7:10 AM
Filed under: General | Tags: , , , , , , , , ,

Today is our favorite djs’ birthday…Dj Love turning 39 today on August 29th. He’s been alive for 39 years and spinning for 20 years. So to “relate” that with me, he’s been spinning ALMOST for as long as I’ve been spinning or we can put it in the perspective that when my sister was born (Peeks!); Dj Love was 18 years old. Never the less, there is no denying that Dj Love has been doing his thing for a while. He started using turntables and vinyl 20 years ago and still is using turntables and vinyl; hasn’t even had the urge to add a laptop to his set. On behalf of Grafwurks, we want to wish Dj Love x Frank; our very good friend. A VERY happy birthday and enjoy it…

See what Dj Love has going on this weekend as he celebrates his 39th birthday…all weekend long; come be part and support!

Nike+ Human Race x Aug. 31st

On August 31st, Nike is hosting the Nike+ Human Race, the world’s largest one-day running event, to celebrate the power of sport and music and to give back to society. The race is being held in 25 cities around the world starting in Taipei and ending in Los Angeles. For all the lucky participants in L.A., Kanye West is set to perform in the post race concert as part of the grand finale performance.

“I’m hitting the stage in Los Angeles for the Nike+ Human Race, Nike’s dopest 10k run ever. This race is bringing together hundreds of thousands of people from all over the world to run and listen to some great music while serving a higher cause, and I’m excited to perform in L.A. as part of the grand finale,” said West.

Other great artists and musicians are also joining the cause in other cities such as Moby in London, All-American Rejects in New York, Fall Out Boy in Chicago, Kelly Rowland in Paris, The Pinker Tones in Madrid, Turkish pop sensation Kenan Dogulu in Istanbul, the Fantastic Four in Munich, Beijing-based singing duo Yu Quan in Shanghai, and American rock band Boys Like Girls in Singapore.

All the people will be running for a worthy cause and support Nike+ Human Race’s charitable partners including the Lance Armstrong Foundation, the WWF, and the UN Refugee agency’s ninemillion.org campaign. Together, Nike and the runners will raise at least $3 million USD for its charities, including $1 million from Nike itself. For more information, visit nikeplus.com.

Well, this has been in the making/talks for a while now. Mr. Mes the JiveTurkey, Fishr Pryce, and I talk periodically throughout the week(via AIM) while we’re at work. And one day, Mes asked me what was I doing? I told him, hanging out in the restroom because I didn’t want to go back to work. He laughed and said, yo, I’ve done that before; so we both kinda a laugh. When the idea was created of hitting up Fishr to create a nice little mix for EVERYONE to enjoy called Restroom Slackers. When I went to Fishr with this idea, he laughed and said, I’ve hung out in restrooms as well. So it kinda all worked out in the end, that everyone taking part in this “project” has hung out in restrooms once before. Thanks to Mes the JiveTurkey for the FRESH artwork and a huge THANKS to Fishr Pryce for the mix. I hope everyone enjoys Restroom Slackers…peace!
