    With all this talk recently of Jazzanova, Gilles Peterson and Kruder &
    Dorfmeister deejaying I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed Raw Deal
    spinning at The Talkin' Loud 10th Year Anniversary Party in Miami. I never
    knew the guy from Raw Deal could deejay, but he tore shit up, out
    Jazzanova-ing Jazzanova with a mix of deep house, Brazilian dance cuts and
    original disco cuts (including a bunch on 7"!!). Not only was he playing
    great tracks he was mixing his ass off too. This guy can really mix. I was
    constantly going up to him asking "what was that? what was that?" all night
    long. One of my fave tracks that night was his mix of a new LTJ Bukem track,
    but he tells me it's never coming out--arrghh! Anyway I just wanted to let
    everyone know that Raw Deal can deejay and he doesn't play much that sounds
    like his records...

    I saw K&D last year in Ghent outside Brussels they played after DJ Morpheus
    and Jazzanova and they were the bad-ass motherfuckers everyone who sees them
    realises they are. In person they are very pleasant and unassuming music
    freaks like probably most of us aj-ers probably are. Morpheus was great as
    well and Jazzanova were also a real blast, to see any of these people on any
    given evening would be good but to see them all on one night was a total
    trip, ahem, blast, ahem ahem, well, y'all probably get the dirft of the
    night. Les Rhythmes Digitales were live in the room next door and Ed Rush
    and Optical were in yet another room down the hall. A highly memorable
    night, even if my memory cells were slightly on the blink or was it the
    blonk, or the blank?????
