Counterspin was about topics the press have not been covering within the immigration debate, and about how Congress's trade agreements.

Steve Blank came by the studio tonight to mix up some more Baltimore club house. If you like what you heard be sure to swing by the Picador on June 8th to check out Sweat featuring Tittsworth.

Tonight's counterspin was all about benchmarks in Iraq and how Lou Dobbs (of CNN fame) says that immigrants = = leprosy. wtfuck lou dobbs.

The 40oz Prophet from Homebase Multimedia came into the studio tonight to throw down the banging techno. Link to the set up soon.

Also, my time slot's going to change in June to Thursdays from 8-10pm.

So, last week was some craziness. Graduation, shows, drinking, and so forth. But damn it feels good to be done with school. As for the downtownsound, I'll be here all summer and the show will be too. Thanks to everyone who came out to student dj's united last Friday. It was a hella good time, although i didn't feel i brought my A-game to the decks (or even my B-game for that matter). But then again, I had just finished a 12 page paper on the cultural norms and premises involved in the persuasive strategies of advertisement's urging adolescents to not use drugs (what?) literally 20 minutes before running over to the Q-bar to go on stage. But people were dancing, and that's all that matters, eh? I wasn't able to make it out to the Angle Alanis show, but i heard it was a bumpin' good time.

Speaking of bumping (and other activities that end in -ing), A Pornstar's Ball 5.0 is going on this weekend up at Woody's in Cedar Rapids. Definitely a good time!

Anyways, tonight's Counterspin was about Iraq and Women (not Iraqi women, but Iraq and then women).

Mel Richards came by the studio tonight to throw down the banging house beats and the sick scratching sounds. Alteration always attracts and arouses another arrestingly almond-colored aardvark. (what??) We got the set recorded, and it should be up whenever i get around to posting the rest of the recorded shows.

So, finals week is here. Sheeesh. Tests and studying = = downtown sound on an hour earlier and no counterspin this week. You can still listen online at counterspin's website by clicking the link in the side bar.

Also, wanted to let everyone know about a couple of shows going on at the Q-bar this weekend. Friday, it's
United State of Sound featuring Avant Garde, myself, Christano, and Abrahm. It's sponsored by Red Bull, so expect a lot of great deals on red bull drinks.

Saturday teh Q-bar is getting some heavy hitters all up ins with Lost Vibrations featuring Angel Alanis and Frankie Vega. Murdoch, DJ Sharlo, and Hector will be throwing down the phat beats as well.

Needless to say, this weekend is shaping up to hold a lot of good dj shows, and you know it's going to be crazy IC style with graduation Saturday and the semester being over.

Look for more updates to this site sometime in the next few weeks, as i'm yet again behind in posting sets.

This week's episode of Counterspin was about Boris Yeltsin's affect on Russia, and the recent supreme court ruling on abortion.

Lady Espina was scheduled to appear on the show tonight, but unfortunately she sprained her ankle rather badly, and has to stay off of her feet for a few days. We're going to reschedule to have her come back sometime in June.

Lady Espina wanted me to let everyone know about Movement 2007: Detroit's Electronic Music Festival that's running May 26th - 28th.
