We Live In Brooklyn! The party won’t quit, but it is time to hang up Record Mode for now. What follows below this thread is months and months of mixing records, recorded live, mostly at Sycamore Bar in Brooklyn, by the extended Names You Can Trust family. One could press play and walk away, hearing music non-stop for daaaayyyyyys. Because that’s how we DO! Thanks to all the DJs involved… Check NYCTrust.com for the latest of our do-abouts. ONE!!!!
Just a little sampling of samples from Sample-King Oneman.
Back from the extended Caribbean area with stoopid rickids. E’s E now!
Gotta love this guy Al’s records, man!
Pablo wigs-out with another grip of hiphop bangers.
Hosts Oneman & E’s E wrap up the night tight.
While our co-host E’s E was touring South America and the Caribbean, Asaf and Oneman held it down for a Decembery episode of We Live In Brooklyn. Also riding sleighside was the inimitable Monk-One who returned from Colombia with a bag of 7”s; Pablo from RSC aka Boogieman who surprised us all with a golden-era hip-hop set; and our friend from the neighborhood Al who doesn’t know the definition of a weak record. The vibes is nice; we stay all night long!
A wintery mix of candied rock and hot cocoa electronica by Oneman.
Making suckers scratch they dome. Asaf! What!!
Another brother from the ‘hood, Al drops in…
Hip to the hop and he don’t stop. Go Pabloooooo!!
Back from Bogotá with Señor Monk-One’s finds.
The recorder was off during New Year’s Eve episode of Pleasure Web—probably for the best. To capture the essence, Oneman made this mix the next day. Well ok, not the next day. But the day after, when life was restored to Earthlings. 2012 was arguably the best year of music ever. So much innovation in all genres. So much cross-pollination. So many great slabs of vinyl. In an interview from the 90s Quentin Tarantino once said “this is a great time not only to be able to make movies, but as a movie enthusiast, to be able to witness great films coming out.” Such is the climate of music today.
Best of 2012 by Oneman.
We really do wish you were here. We’re often blessed with our extended DJ family dropping by for our We Live In Brooklyn sessions. This month we had Sami and Pablo join residents Asaf, Oneman & E’s E. Hanging out and listening to music together is The Tits. But since you couldn’t make it, enjoy these lovely recording of a warm night passed:
