In the run up to my trip to the USA I've decided to bring you some guest mixes from some of the top DJ's from the specific areas I'll be visiting. The first "US Special" (Los Angeles) is this week, followed by Part 2 (San Francisco) in 2 weeks time.
First up this week, I'm so pleased and honoured to bring you two fantastic 30 minute mixes from Los Angeles-based DJ's Reid Speed and Josh David.
REID SPEED
Little more than a year ago, Reid Speed was living in a loft apartment in Brooklyn with a view of the elevated subway tracks, touring on the strength of a nationwide network of regular parties and promoters won over by her energetic and fully-engaged style of DJing. After the release of Resonance and her monstrous U.S. tour (immediately followed by a month on the tour bus with stateside breakbeat kings Ming + FS), Reid moved to Los Angeles in an effort to nourish her fanatical following on the West Coast. From her new base camp, she has succeeded in making waves not only as a drum + bass artist, but in the house and breaks world as well, drawing on a dedication to an eclectic dancefloor that has shaped her tastes as a DJ.
Reid's regular trips back to New York have demonstrated a continuing loyalty to her roots, and the response from New York City's notoriously fickle crowds has been nothing less than adoring. Amidst all this, the minds behind urban Ÿber-brand Triple 5 Soul took notice and have signed Reid to a national full-page ad campaign, placing her alongside such underground royalty as Dwele, Jean Grey, and Peanut Butter Wolf. Television called soon after, with Jamie Kennedy hand-selecting Reid as the on-air DJ for The Jamie Kennedy Experiment on the WB network.
