I kinda think it's not fair that they're allowed to have one guy playing a beat, and one guy scratching. But I do think that these guys have gotten a shit ton better at DJing and producing beats since I started following them in '05 or '06 at the Peanut downtown. Congrats...

Our good friend Johnny Quest out in Lawrence sent us this DJ mix a couple of days ago. I've been so bogged down with focusing on print magazine stuff (new issue of Demencha will hopefully go to print tonight), that I haven't had a chance to throw this up here til now. ...
