Another installment for your pleasure, check the playlist below. Thanks to Ben Lawson from Red Bull Studios for the production co-piloting, hence the timely posting of the show for a change!

On other fronts, I'm now about 12 hours from finishing this remix of Sunburst Band's 'Far Beyond' that's been kicking my ass. Can't wait to play it on next week's show...

***UPDATE: SORRY, FIXED LINK ISSUE. THANKS ANTHONY...

Boom. Chris Cox, exclusives (Starblazers debut sneak peak), disco bombs, and chit chat are all in the house. Enjoy...

No time to do playlist, sorry! Have had my head down finishing this Sunburst Band remix but hit me for the tracks if you're hanging to know what you're listening to. Off to Serato birthday party!

HIT IT AND QUIT IT - May 11, 2009

Sorry for taking an extra little bit to get the latest show up, shit is thick! At the moment I'm finishing a remix for Sunburst Band, fine-tuning the Starblazers, getting ready for a pending trip to the states, playing lots of gigs, and looking after a sick lil dude for the last few weeks. Simultaneously...

But such is life. I was tempted not to post this show as its the outcome of the craziness I speak of (four gigs, three days, three cities). That said, the 'music for hibernation' set has some moments... Been looking for my Jaco record for awhile too, nice to dig it out.

HIT IT AND QUIT IT- MAY 4, 2009

This show was all about random selections, having fun, and talking too much shit... thanks in much part to HIQI's on-off co-host Chris "Gift of Gab" Coxy's presence in the hotbox.

[NOTE: I listened through to pt. 2 five times trying to find the ad break... did I forget to play it or is it still in there? my bad if it is, ugh.]

The Crown Heights Affair- Dreaming A Dream (Disco)

One of my favorite CHA joints... I recently heard the vocal break on a Moxie 12" so thought I'd post the original... get it while its good. Off to the radio!

The Crown Heights Affair- Dreaming A Dream (Disco) [320]

Why Sheep?- Earthborn (Recloose Remix)

This came out in 2002. I didn't know anything about 'Why Sheep?' but the remix turned out pretty nice...

What I take away from this was how dope the Waldorf Microwave XT was (think 'Get There Tonight'). Need to get that one back into the bunker.

HIT IT AND QUIT IT- APRIL 27, 2009

This week's installment features a guest mix from our main man Dean Zhou aka Funk Bast*rd, a great DJ from the Singapore scene who's knowledge of contemporary music kind of floored me on my latest trip (dude knew everything!). Be sure to peep his site danceandsoul.com, lots of other great radio shows are hosted there... and Hit It and Quit It will soon join the ranks.

And if anybody wants a copy of that 'Absence of One/Can't Take It Demo-Megamix' say the word and I'll put it up this week...

I was up until 3:30 editing the new STARBLAZERS project... with the flu...zzzz.zz.z...zzzz... so here ya go. I didn't have time to edit out the (awesome) George ads this week, my sincerest apologies, really...

Thanks to Chris Cox (oh the banter), Jellphonic, and Isaac Aesili for falling through the piece. And if you're in New Zealand go buy Julien Dyne's new album 'Pins and Digits'. Now.

Recloose- Turkish Delight (Southern Fried Disco Demo)

Here's an early and ridiculous version of Turkish Delight, a tune that originally appeared on Hiatus on the Horizon. I'm cracking up listening to the original madness... Edit anyone??

Featuring the impeccable stylings of NZ's baddest rhythm guitarist Mike Fabulous (aka MSG the Flavor Enhancer).
