PLEASE NOTE IF YOU ARE A BAND PLEASE ADD ME finger on the pulse RADIOIt’s been a long year for finger on the pulse. This mix was supposed to come out in October, but things came up and life got delayed. I am actually happy it got pushed back cause I think the earlier songs fit better with the later, newer songs. This is an overview of my favorite artists this year and the best to come. Big ups to Thunderheist and Muscles this year and I am calling 2008 the year of Treasure Fingers and Ocelot .
I chose the name for all the people who have sent me notes over the last few years about the new music they discovered by listening to these mixes. These are the people who I do the mixes for. Becoming a dj has always been about sharing the music I love with as many people as I can. So I am doing things a bit differently this time. I have all the tracks for this mix separated out below in a zip folder. Download the file and bang these tracks out. Bonus points for people who take the songs and make their own mix. Email me here and ill post up the best one.
See you in 2008.

Summer has arrived in Brooklyn, which means late nights, rooftop parties, bbqs, cards and dancing. I wanted to make something that people could throw on while hanging out and instantly have a good time. This time of year is all about getting awesome all the time. Summer 2007 get at me.

Stuck somewhere between ipod and vinyl, lies the laptop dj. Neither a selector nor old school, the laptop dj languishes in a world of 0’s and 1’s, able to mix, but never taken seriously. While able to obtain certain status, there is a glass ceiling they must watch their wax brethren through as they obtain international fame and fortune. Currently, there is a raging debate regarding the laptop djs place in the world. They are consumed by their need to prove that they too have an identity all their own. No longer complacent, their voices are being raised.
This is the tale of one dj’s struggle.
