Catchdubs, Jubilee and I take over the front room of the club formerly known as Galapagos every Friday to spin the best in house, techno, disco, bass, wobble, bleep whiz shebang. It's free!

Our special guest this week is the enigmatic Egg Foo Young, plus we've got a free mix for download and flicks from last week. Also: Cosmo is on tour with Redman all next week!

The Bun B tour was incredible - it was truly a special event every night, great to be a part of.


Here is a live set, recorded on tour with Bun B, August 2008: http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/the-rub/~5/380833675/therub912008.mp3

I record myself a lot (internally using the Rane TTM-57) but I rarely put up live sets. For the Scion tours I usually work out some sets and then do things a little different each night, but do certain transitions that I like the same way each night. A few transitions like the DJ Kool / Jay-Z thing, and the Dr Dre into MOP, are things I've been doing since last year and should probably retire...

Anyhow this set is really two recordings from two different cities spliced together - part of a warmup set and then later on in the more hype part of the night. The edit point is "Mr. Scarface." I played a lot more Texas rap but it would be dumb to post that part of the set up because Houston for Dummies was the last podcast - http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/the-rub/~5/361468364/HoustonForDummies.mp3

Tracklist: * ABN - In My City * Gorilla Zoe - I'm Dumb * Turf Talk - Bring the Bass Back * Big Tuck ft Slim Thug - Not A Stain On Me (remix) * Dead Prez - Bigger Than Hip-Hop * Jadakiss ft Styles P - We Gonna Make It * Puff Daddy - Bad Boy For Life * Jaylib - The Red * Bozo Meko - Spread Love * The Roots ft Wale - Rising Up * Lupe Fiasco ft Young Jeezy - Superstar * Scarface - Mr Scarface * Geto Boys - Mind Playing Tricks On Me * Tupac - I Get Around * Outkast - ATLiens * Cool Breeze ft Dungeon Family - Watch For the Hook * DJ Spinna - Everybody Bounce * Memphis Bleek - Do My * DJ Kool - Let Me Clear My Throat * Beyonce - Crazy In Love * Jay-Z - PSA * Jay-Z - Roc Boys * Kanye West - Champion * Bobby Byrd - I Know You Got Soul * Bobby Byrd - I'm Coming * James Brown - Get Up, Get Into It, Get Involved * 20th Century Steel Band - Heaven and Hell * Liquid Liquid - Cavern * Jim Dunloop and Marc Hype - The Mexican * LL Cool J - Jingling Baby * EPMD ft LL Cool J - Rampage * Busta Rhymes - Don't Touch Me * Busta Rhymes - Touch It * Kanye West - Stronger * Jay-Z - Encore * Kanye West - Touch The Sky * Dr Dre - Let's Get High * Dr Dre - B!tches Ain't Sh!t * Dr Dre - Next Episode * MOP - Ante Up * Nas - Made You Look

And we'll have an exclusive interview with Bun B on Rub Radio on Scion Broadband, coming in the next couple of months.



Cosmo and I went with the Smalltown DJs to Shambhala Festival in British Columbia at the beginning of August. There were 10,000 hippies and ravers camping out in the woods and dancing. 6 stages, music 24/7, and amazing sound systems. Best. Rave. Ever.

The beach stage at about 10 in the morning.


Everyone wore costumes all weekend.

Ayres and the Scratch Bastid


Cosmo is always groovy

Music highlights were DJ Numark - one of the best hip-hop and classics sets we've seen in our lives - Smalltown DJs, Malente, Drop The Lime, Vinyl Richie, Hugs, Scratch Bastid, Flosstradamus, Neighbor, Wax Romeo, Fort Knox 5 and Ursula 1000.


The Rub has just released a handful of remixes and mashups on CrooklynClan.net.
We need a Winn Dixie grocery bag right now to the VIP section!



When hearing the Rub’s It’s The Motherf*cking Remix series, listeners are treated to some ’80s pop, freestyle, RnB and new wave. Who are/were some of your major influences?

Cosmo: "Black Sabbath, and nothing but Black Sabbath. There are no more influences on us."
