Sometimes you’re like, ‘what the f**k am I doing? Why am I doing this this way?’ But at the end of the day it’s way more comforting to me than any other way that I’ve seen.  And I have seen a good bit of ways to do this. The people that I see that are the happiest, and the people around me, are all independent.  It maybe dark sometimes, but that doesn’t mean that it’s scary.</p> <p>-McKenzie Eddy in interview with Alexander “DJ RTC” Fruchter (<a title="McKenzie Eddy" href="http://hassankinley.files.wordpress.com/2011/07/mckenzie_web2.jpg?w=950&h=633" target="_blank">read here</a>)</p> </blockquote>http://djrtc.com/post/11139948380http://djrtc.com/post/11139948380Fri, 07 Oct 2011 09:04:40 -0500“This is not some celebrity sh*t.

Got some really good practice in. This is going to be interesting to see what kind of crowd Quest draws, and what they may or may not be expecting or be into.  I have a lot of indie Hip Hop, some newer rock stuff, some classics, really a whole mix. I’m excited to weave in and out. I hope they feel it, and I don’t fuck up, lol… My needles have been acting like shit lately though, I hate when that happens.  Some DJ’s play a lot on intel, I don’t really get down like that. I need to be able to control the record physically. I think it will be all good though. The last few sessions I’ve had have been better than the last few months, kind of matching what I wrote a few days ago in “Progress”…</p> <p>If you’re coming out, say what’s up. I’ll be moving around the crowd after my set. Quest is going to dj for over 3 hours, I can’t imagine how that’s gonna go.</p>http://djrtc.com/post/9430166236http://djrtc.com/post/9430166236Fri, 26 Aug 2011 17:52:12 -0500questlovedj shit “I’m never really thinking in terms of mass consumption.
