This track came out on a maxi-single of sorts that The Popper put out over the summer, the lead single being "Dead Beat." I like this song a lot better, though. If Popper is reading this - we're still looking out for that Club Hits record! Though he's getting up there in...

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. ...
