Hot Wax Action is back… Hi! This is the first of two podcasts. The first is called “Warm It Up.” I’ll upload “Burn It Down” someday.

First I’m gonna get the party started with a bunch of classic funk jams. This is how I might go from 100bpm to around 125 over the course of an hour and get people all warmed up and ready to party. 

And in the next installment I’m gonna go hard and fast and deep in the crates.

Sorry about a couple of crunchy mixes, it’s a live vinyl DJ set and I’m not out here trying to be Skratch Bastid or anything. Enjoy!

SLOW JAMS TO UNITE THE PLANET

Here’s Hot Wax Action #6, a one-hour podcast in which I tear around the yard on a ride-on mower, play some records at the wrong speed, try to interview a kitten, and record an outdoor jam with the microphone set up in the woods half a kilometer away.

There’s a contest in this week’s podcast. Find the question in there somewhere, and if you know the answer off the top of your head, go type it in at facebook.com/JaguarKnightMusic.
