45s at 30:
Cool Coffee house, TBA 2004
I will mix 45 revolutions per minute 7-inch records at 30 revolutions per minute.
Why this will rock the troll and you should attend:

1. The music will sound extremely slow and low. Chilled out feelings may occur.
2. My record selection will be intentionally limited to only cheap 45s that one often finds at garage sales, thrift stores, and second hand stores. This financial constraint creates an interesting dynamic of unusual and classic 45s.
3. This will extend the tradition of Houston’s DJ Screw and Chicago’s LaDuece (16 Style).
4. New life and identities will be breathed into old songs through this expansion of time and pitch cause by slowing down record play. Woman’s voices will sound like men, men will sound like trolls, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg called 45s at 30.

What? What is a 45? What?
Music was first record on a cylinder by Thomas Edison in 1877. However in 1887 Emile Berliner, a German immigrant to the U.S., developed a way to record audio onto a flat disc which was easier to mass produce than Edison’s cylinder. Most of these early one-sided records were about 10 inches in diameter and played at 78 revolutions per minute (or rpms). The 78 rpm speed could fit only 5 minutes per side and was replaced by Columbia with the 33 rpm speed on a 12-inch record in 1948. This new format could fit 25 minutes per side. RCA Victor then introduced the seven inch 45 which could hold as much audio as a 12 inch 78 but in a much more compact size. 45 and 33 then became the 2 standard speeds. These 45 rpm 7 inch records are what I will be mixing at the event, 45s at 30.
But what of the 30?
I will be mixing these records at 33 rpms. However I will be using special Stanton turntables with pitch modulation sliders designed for DJs to mix beats. These sliders can increase or decrease the speed of the motor by 10 per cent. I will be playing all of the records at —10% to get the greatest outcome, so slow. 90% of 33=29.7 (30)!!!!!

Represent it all from the NC to the T to the X. Credits include but are not limited to: Mr. Browneye, D Flower, Rubber Hose, The Condumbs, The Lubricunts, Unleaded Fuel Only, Murder in Montford, Hobz, and the EA. RFDA label was started to represent "contemporary classical" (David Kidney s/t RFDA#1) to the fullest but got a little side tracked. The whole "fired down!" explosion hasn’t exactly helped things. Come to the Space City for a secret raves under the ice skating rink in the world famous Galleria. Or chill in his castle in the sky and listen to Ian Van Dahl records.

DJ Damien has been spinning bangers and mash in some of the City of Syrups most notorious strip clubs. With his release Anthems (RFDA#9) we get a flavor of some of his favorite tracks that give props, dis, and sympathize with the stripper lifestylez. Keep an eye out for his two new releases to drop this spring and summer respectively, Can I Play With Your Panty Line? and See-Through Thong. Also warm down with the screwed version of Anthems when your rolling to the club on the 610 loop.

A special message from DJ Damien: Shout out to Harlem Knights Tuesday crew and Brickwall, Julliet, Hallen, the Russians, and Mai at the Gold Cup. St. James---You ain’t all that! Quit firing all my friends and acquaintances. Keep the Historic Colorado clean---the last of a dying H-town breed. No luv to the Men’s Club or Centerfolds. Babes---please step up your game. You are an embarrassment to what we do as entertainers. Legends, always and forever. Lets work together.

Maybe you’ve seen me on the Summer of HTML tour? I am Led by DJ Jackmaster Christmas behind the powerful TB-303 and the powerful harpsichordian and I likes to pick up where the EAs left off. Controversy surrounds the way I ride the fine line of rave positivity and frat-boy partydom. Too introspective? Surprise songs included Darude’s Sandstorm, Vengaboys’ We like to party, and the Rager’s complete catalog. Special guest have featured Chicago’s unknown unlyrical and Minniapolis’s masked finest. Check list: Smiley-faced top hat, no shirt.

Unofficial DJ Shoulders Webpage:
DJ Shoulders has received awards from ASCAP, BMI, and the national association for living sound. Best "band," hands down. Even Baltimore noise-rockers Nauti Al give approve. He literally tore it up on the Summer of HTML tour leaving flipped, broken turntables and smashed light bulbs in his wake. But it was more than worth it. Here are some pics of him working "it" with TA DJ Jackmaster Christmas.

Biography:
“I was born in 1977 - the year Charles Mingus died, the year Elvis Presley died, and the year the digital camera was born. I am a second-wave member of the Paperrad artist collective and my music is released on RFDA records.”
About my upcoming 3 inch CDR:
“My new release on RFDA is of an older piece for solo piano called Codes performed here by Hyojin Ahn. Codes features six short pieces of contrasting characters. The first piece is a collage that presents many of the ideas that will be developed in the later five pieces. However in this brief initial presentation they are obscured or disguised. The second piece is one large gesture that expands and contracts in many parameters, such as dynamics, register, rhythm, and pitch collections. The third piece explores organic growth versus abrupt interruption using quickly repeating gestures. The fourth piece features a free lyric melody, which becomes engulfed by descending tremolos. The fifth piece combines ideas of serial composition with diatonic and pentatonic harmonies. The final movement is a passagalia.”
Selected current projects:

“Oh No You Didn’t” for Rice University’s Shepherd School Symphony Orchestra
